that followed for half an hour aiterward.
The penitentiary alarm bell began changing,
n most unusual circumstance, and this was
soon followed by the ringing OF the tire-bell.
Then second alarm was turned IN, which
sent the whole Fire Department ont to the
State Prison Next the entire police force
WAS hastily summoned 10 the same place,
and finally the volunteer military were or
dered to proceed ut once TO the prison,
fully armed and equipped for action. Five
companies are now marching thither and
fully ten thousand people are
AROUND THE WALLS
of the institution, which is on the border
of the city.

ers. Only the night force of guards were
ON hand nj the time, and they were not
able to cope with the eight hundred
MADDENED CoNvICTS,
who tore at their doors, and many of them
maniacs for the moment from fear. They
cried and implored some one to open the
doors. The ringing of the fire bells added
10 their terror, for they imagined the place
was on fire. The two who succeeded IN
retting through the broken walls were fol-
lowed. 1t required large number OF the
guards to held them. There was no way
reaching them all at once, and the hoarse
murmur of the crowd outside made 1t i'm
possible for any one to 50 in the midst oil
the prisoners. who resembled more the IN
mates of mad house.
THE first military company to reach the
scene was the Attack Guards, composed
of negroes. They chanced to be drilling
at the time, and the beating of their drum
as they marched out only served to
INCREASE THEIR TERROR.
''The large majority of the eOnvicts were
negroes, and had all the superstition of
their race. Many of them imagined that
the Day of Judgment had come, and Others
thought that the people of the city had
risen to sweep them from the face Of the
earth. but when in some way word passed
among them that it wns an earthquake the
scene in their midst beggars description,
and was painful in the extreme, but they
were soon powerless, and their misery
SPENT ITSELF IN sHRIEKs
until by degrees they were calmed. This
was only done slowly, and was difficult OF
accomplishment.
As they were being quieted, however,
the city was becoming more excited as ru-
mors of general rising of convicts was
spread in town, while the marching soldiers
made the matter worse. 1t Is safe to say

At Mt. Pleasant there was a general
shaking up, but no loss of life. There are
many assures and cavities from which fresh
water and mud have come; fine mud or
sand has also come to the surface in
Charleston. 1t is contended here that there
was twist or turn in the motion Of the
earthquake, and that it had not simply an
undulating motion. Articles Of furniture
and lamps have been found which are
turned partly round, in addition to the
visible effects of the simple wave motion.
. On Sullivan'S Island the shook was Sc

done and no lives were lost. Many OF the
summer visitors came up to the city this

On James Island the earth was cracked
in many places and from the assures issued
large bodies of cold water, mixed with sand
and blue mud.

Some Energetic Remarks.

BERLIN, September THE North Ger
man Gazette, referring to the articles Of the
Ultramontane and Liberal pres regarding
Prince Alexander, SAYS:
Germany, unless she forthwith de
clared war against Russia, could only pro-
test against any further interference with
Alexander, or, perhaps, against Russia
taking further steps in the direction OF
Constantinoplc. Russia would energeii-
cally repcl the insinuations Of such nh in
tcntion and Germany's friendly relations
with Russia would he ended. II mus; be
remembered that war would be the logical
development of such situation. Nobody
doubts that the Ultramontanc and Liberal
policy is fraught with imminent danger to
Germany. One must either stand Ia
to the policy of the government or plunge
the Empire into intcrminablc war. We
hear that the commercial convention be-
tween Germany and Spain has been signed
and that the Rechstag will soon bc sum

many persons, and will continue to be so, until
the people ''snOw him under RumOr says
he has never had but one case since he was

in the recorders court. Why then was he
nominated for county attorney What proof
has he given, Of possessing the amount of
legal knowledge and ability requisite for the
discharge of the responsible duties of county
attorney Echo answers, none at all. He is
in comfortable circumstances and does not
need the income of the Office. Bart Dewitt
did need the income of the office and was be-
sides, fully competent.
Why was Dryer nominated? He Is the first
cousin of Mayor Callaghan. As he has never

There will be larger influx of strsng-

the city has seen for several seasons.
More building is now going on than has
been in operation since the boom Ofthree
years ago ended. Our increased railway
facilities are already improving our
trade and its effect has just begun to be
felt. Our wool trade will be heavier this
fall than for several seasons past, so far
at least as returns for crops are con-
cerned, present prices ruling consider
ably higher. There Is more enquiry for
real estate by a large per cent than
there was at this time last year; fewer
houses to rent, and every indication Of
the beginning of the end of the old stag
nation. With a decent city administra-
tion, a municipality redeemed from
Mexican rule, the old Alamo city would
put on prosperity as a garment.
