A North Carolina Waterspout.

RALHIeH, N. g., August 2s.-Newa
has been received here of "a waterspout
in, Wilkes County. Last Sunday night
people living on North Lewis Fork river
were awakened by terribly loud noise.
They were thrown into panic by swell
and overflow of water from the noun
tains, which came in rush, sweeping
away everything within its reach. The
water stood in dwellings two feet deep,
while enormous drifts of timber from the
mountains Aoated against the houses.
gW:S. Halls house was surrounded. He
sprung from the door and was swept near
a stable, wherehis mule was. He mount.
ed the mule and was carried safely down
the.,stream until an island was reached.
His house was swept away few moments
later. William Lawes and family and
Franklin Parsons and family went into
the woods, fleeing from the wrath of the
waters, and leaving their wrecked house..
Such q waterspout and such devastation
were before unknown to the Oldest resi-
dents. So great and wonderful, are the
ruins that crowds pass to and fro to. view
the craggy cliffs. Spruce pines from the
mountains, with the bark peeled, shining
white, are lodged in the valley, torn
down. They were from the mountains
and washed up by the roots. Some of
these trees are three and four feet in
diameter. An examination made of the
waters shows that the clond-burst occur.
red in field of II. 81. Church, on the
side of the Blue Ridge mountains.
There body of water fell all at. once.
Great cavities are cut in the side of the
mountain which can plainly be seen from
distance of eight miles. Strange to
say, in all this mad rush of water not
one life was lost.

Blown up by Dynamite.

AUGUSTA, Ca, August pa we'll
defined attempt to kill Chinaman
occurred here tonight. The bed of
Charlie Loo Chong, doing business on
Campbell street, near the union depot,
was literally torn to pieces by dynamite.
At the time Charlie was not in bed and
escaped death. The perpetrators are
unknown as yet. The explosion was
heard for blocks. Crowds are assembled
at the scene discussing the occurrence.
The dynamite was placed beneath the
flooring of the bed room, directly under.
meath the bed. The hole torn in the
flooring is II by 5, and the bed is torn to
sbreds, and death would have been in.
stantaneous to an occupant. The object
is plain, but the motive prompting the
deed is conjectured. Was it. personal
attempt against Charlie Loo Chong, or
was the act prompted by malice against
the Chlnamen in general, and must the
heathen go? These are the questions
suggesting themselves, and as yet unan.
swered. A dozen policemen are on duty
at the scene, and clues are being worked
with determination. No damage was
done tothe Chinamen's store or adjoining
property. The plans were splendidly
arranged and we'll carried out. The
explosion is the sensation here tonight.

this morning about o'clock. There
were two distinct, but slight, shocks fol-
lowing in quick succession. IT seems
that tho shocks were tmost perccptibly
felt along the river front. The patrol.
men vouch that the earth trembled, trees
ratified their leaves, bells tolled, houses
swayed, and low rumbling sound as il
coming from the bowels of the earth &C.
companied the shocks. Frightened
citizens who heard and felt the jars
leaped from their beds to ascertain the
cause, and scores of night,robed individ.

dreams. Pictures were shaken from the
walls in some residences, and in one
house valuable French mirror, which
had been temporarily placed il in q par,

position to the floor and smashed to
atoms. In Diamond Row young
woman became 80 badly frightened that

one instance, an infant was jostled from
its couch and thrown upon the floor, re-

shock did no damage, but is the sensa'

ATHENS, August 29.-The area of
earth disturbance in Greece yesterday
was phenomenally wide. At least six
towns we're entirely destroyed and a
score of others partially destroyed. On
the mainland mnch damage was done,
but there was little loss of, life. On the
islands it. is estimated that 600 persons
were killed and ], 900 seriously injured.
The undulations were curiously regular.
The actual shocks averaged twelve sec.
onds in duration. People everywhere
are camping out in the fields. The
breaking of Telegraph lines delays the
reception of details. The Greek Cabinet
is. sitting at Athens almost continuously,
considering relief measures. Transports,
with tents, food, doctors, medicines and
company of pompiers, started for, the
atricken district on Saturday evening,
ATHENS, August 29.-The latest re-
turns show that one hundred persons
were killed at Filiatra and twenty at
Gargaliano. Both towns are in ruins.
NAPLES, August 29.-Vesuvius is
again in q state of eruption. The people
of Naples and Bari are fleeing to the
country or gathering in open spaces to

Died Of Mydrophobia.

JOHNSTON, S. c., August 25.--Major
Levi Lybrand, prominent citizen OF
this County, who lived about ten miles
from Johnston, died this morning OF
hydrophobia, after intense suffering.
Last Spring he was bitten by q common
cur dog, which was generally supposed
to be mad; but the Major did not think
there was anything wrong with the dog,
and resented the possibility of any bad
result. from the bite. His friends advised
him to go to Paris and be inoculated by
Pasteur, but he made light of their fears.
The wound healed up quickly, and no
notice was taken of it until few days
since, when the Major developed hydro
phobia in its most malignant form.

ATHENS, August 2s.-Greece has
again been visited by an earthquake,
which has been the most disastrous in
Morea, and in which the loss of life, &C.
=cording to the best information, reaches
the enormous figure of 800. The village
of Pyrgo and the town of Philiatra, both
situated on the Western coast of Morea,
were the chief sufferers, and these
furnish, It is believed, all that have per.
ished. In Pyrgo not house is left
standing, while Philitra is almost swept
from the face Of the globe, swallowed up
in copYnlsions of the earth. Shocks
were experienced throughout Greece in
a greater or less degree. In the town of
sZante, every house was damsged and the
inhabitants Aed Ia terror to the open
country. Several towns In Italy were
also visited by earthquake, .bnt not to
any serious extent, Naples, Brindisi,
Foggia, Caserta ond Taranta being the
number.
4 An earthquake shock was experienced
at Athens at midnight. Advices from
Sante says that excessive heat, dead

warned the inhabitants. The earthquake
center appears to be in the sea at point
thirty miles south of Zante. The earth
quake is supposed to. be Of volcanic
origin. The cables and telegraph wires
are broken, and no news had been re.
