Garrett and A. M. El ledge returned from Charleston yesterday. They report that there has been no exaggeration 5 u newspaper re ports of the destruction visited upon the city. They visited every pail of Chariest m, and every where they were met by scenes of disaster. Hand some brick buildings had tumbled down, or were tottering, ready to fall. They state that it is sim ply out of the question to describe the ruins—it 45 must be seen to be appreciated. 0 j Nine days have e apsed since the earthquake 22?j . shock visited Charleston, and from the report 331 j these gentlemen make none but the natives can —— ever appreciate the horror of the : nine days nor comprehend the de- i Date molition of the city.

Few are those j j who now believe they are reasonably, if not j ! wholly, secure from danger. The work of clear- i ! ing away debris, which has employed minds and ; bodies of men. has done much toward restoring ; confidence nnd bringing about a better condition | of the public pulse. What has been especially ; needed there since Saturday was something to , draw the minds of the inhabitants away from the quakes and direct them toward hope of re- j claiming the city. This has been found a work of progression. It will take weeks to clean away ; accumulated debris, and buildings will be in the j process of being torn down for months yet, No. 4 Eiicniufiineiit, o. r.

Up to date only 515 voters have registered in the city—245 of this number are in the up-town district and 270 in the lower town. A great many people confound the county registration with the city ejection. The two arc separate and distinct. Those who fell to register now cannot vote in cither the October, November or January elections.This is an important matter and should not be neglected. A Pleasant Entertainment.

The Columbus Athletic Club celebrated its third anniversary celshration at Villa Reich last night. The spacious hall was beautifullj' deco rated with Japanese designs, and several hun dred ladies nnd gentlemen honored the occasion ! bv their presence. The first thing on the pro- j gramme was an overture by Conti’s band, which was greatly enjoyed. Mr. W. B. Slade then delivered the anniversary address. It was a perfect gem, and the young orator won the unstinted praise and applause of the large audience. Then came the athletic performces on the ; gynasium, horizontal bars, leaping, etc., nnd all i agreed that amateurs never did better. One gentleman remarked that he never saw anything to equal it except by professionals. The young gentlemen displayed great muscular strength j and skill. A gold badge was offered to Hie best athlete. At the close of the exercises the judges, Messrs. A. J. Riddle. C. Schomberg and W. B. 1 Slade, retired for a few minutes consultation. Upon their return Captain Riddle, after highly J complimenting the young men, announced that ! the badge had been awarded to Mr. Charles J, , Killer. Special mention was made of Mr. Robert I Kavanugh. j Dancing was then begun and was continued i into the wee sum’ hours. There were a large ! number of couples on the floor, nnd though the ; night was warm, they entered fully into the pleasure of the dance and seemed loth to have it ! end. During the evening refreshments were served, ami altogether the entertainment was j the most enjoyable of the kind ever given in j Columbus. The Athletic Club is composed of substantial i young gentlemen, and its object is the physical, ; moral and social improvement of its members. j It fills a good place and deserves to be encouraged by its friends. ( HATTAHOOf IIKK COUNTY, lilt of tin* Primary Election for County i When our satellite, on the 13th, presents her : full round face to the earth the most beautifu I moon of all the year is inaugurated, for during several successive nights she appears above the eastern horizon soon after the sun 1ms disap- j peared below the western. During the four eve- i nings succeeding the full of the September moon th ore is an uvei<tgO difference in the time of her rising of only 32 minutes. For this reason the I evenings following the full of the moon in Sep* j tember have furnished themes for poetic iuspira- j tion since men began to observe the heavens. ! The husbandmen of old, who lived near to nature, saw in the arrangement a providential j interposition to prolong the day, and thus lend j them assistance in gathering in the harvest, and j honored the occasion by. giving the name Harvest j Moon to this special moon. Their simple ’aith was more Reverential than scientific, but none the less to he admired. Science, however, ex plains the reason for this apparent departure Horn the moon’s usual course, and throws to the winds the simple theory that the moon deviates from her unswerving course to aid the husband- ‘ men of the north temperate zone. Ou the 22d, at 10 o’clock in the evening, the i autumnal equinox occurs. The sun then enters the sign Libra, the ecliptic and the equator cross each other and the astronomical autumn com mences. The sun shines from pole to pole, night 1 and day are of equal length all over the globe, and, in our belt of terrestrial territory the lumi nary which is our life and light looks down with smiling face upon a scene fair to behold. The fruition of vegetable development crowns the picture. The earth lias yielded her choicest treas- ures from her IVuitful bosom. Rich harvests load the broad fields, trees bend under the weight of ripening fruit, flowers of brilliant lme brighten the landscape, the culmination of the sun’s in fluence is everywhere apparent. But even at this interesting point of the earth’s journey around the sun there is a foreshadowing of change.

Waverly Hall is situated in the ‘‘garden spot” of Georgia, farming lauds yielding above an average. The best school and church advantages already established. Society Isas good as any city in Georgia or elsewhere. People are alive to anything progressive, and willing to lend a helping hand to any who may locate in our midst. It is one of the best trade point? in Harris county, being thickly populated already, and only needs the new railroad now being built to make it the nicest town in the state. Hoalfhfulness of the place is unexcelled. Water the best. Between 2500 and 5000 bales of cotton will be shipped from this point coming season. This alone will be worth the consideration of thoughtful business men who wish to do a good business without having any heavy expense. To those who wish to give their children the very best educational advantages, our people especial ly ask them to come and locate among us. All parents are well aware of the advantage of edu cating their children in the country than in the cities in a moral point of view.
