v The Fartliquakc.
In lasi week’s issue we made brief men*
ition of the earthquake which took place on
■the Tuesday night previous. As was appre
hended, Charleston, S. C., was the greatest
sufferer from its effects. Below, We give a
■condensed statement of particulars copied
ifrom the Savannah Newt of Friday, the 3d
•inst. This is all we have room for. Indeed,
•twenty editions of our pnper might be filled
with interest ng details from all parts of the
■country. All the daily papers, for several
■ days, were filled with incidents that occur
ired in the various cities of Georgia and South
’Carolina. Such a stirring up among the
people has not taken place in a long time:
•Ohari.eston, S. C., Sept. 2, 11 a. m.—
'The last shock was experienced hero at 11:*
■SC o’clock last night, since which time there
'have been no vibrations. The people are
just beginning to pick up courage. Kfforls
.are being made to clear paths through the
-streets for the passage of vehicles and pedes
itrians, and the city once more begins to
chow some signs of life. For two days and
mights of terror women and ehildren have
been camped out on the public parks and
squares. The earthquake has swept over
tllie city like a besom of destruction, and
(Charleston is laid down in the dust.
For two days and nights the people have
.done nothing but huddle in the squares.
Small detached relief parties arc going in to
dig out the dead from the dehris or succor
.the wounded. The hst of wounded will go
iinto the hundreds. About seven eighths of
the houses and public buildings in the city
arc either damaged or wrecked. Even the
historic St. Michael’s and St. Phillip’s
.Churches are so badly wrecked that it is fear
ed they will have to be taken down. The
■waves from 9:55 oclock Tuesday night
have been coming about once every five or
six hours. There has been none now for
itwclvc hours, and hopes are entertained that
the horror is about over.
As the details of the calamity in this city
.arc gathered its effects become more and
more alarming. It is feared, also, tlmt much
distress will prevail, as by far the larger
part of those whose property has been wreck
•ed or seriously damaged belong to the poor
er classes. The people are quite happy un
der the tcrriblo circumstances, and nre try
ing to restore order out of chaos. The ag
gregate loss is expected to reach $3,000,000.
The whnr' cs, warehouses and business fa
cilities of the city arc generally unaffected
by the catastrophe aud Charleston is as
iready as ever for the transaction of busi
ness.
The official total of the deaths is 33. The
wounded w ill probably number 100. Busi
ness is still suspended, the whole attention
of tho pcoplo being given to prdviding for
the refugees and making residences safe.
Bricklayers have advanced their rates to six
dollars per day.
iChaiu.esito*, S. C h Sept. 2,7 v. m. —The
pcoplo arc gradually taking account of the
details of the injury worked by tho earth
quake, and tho list of damages to property
is startling. A limited section in the south
of tho city is a snmplo of tho whole.
Standing at the post office and looking west
un almost impassable roadway of debris
snsets the eye. The building of the Cham
ber of Commerce is badly damaged- A
portion of the south and cast walls having
been thrown down by the violence of the
shock, and the buildings of Walker, Evans
•& Cogswell have also suffered, while the
Jicavy granite slabs which formed the pnr
•upet of the News and Courier building lie
upon the sidewalk, leaving tho slate roof
and a portion of the attic floor exposed.
Almost the entire front of the buildings oc
copied by Myers’ cigar store and Smith’s
stencil establishment is turnout, leaving the
upper floors exposed. The l’lenge building
at the corner of Church street was badly
damaged. Most of the buildings on the
street are more or less damaged, but the vi
olence of the earthquake is most perccptiblo
at the historic intersection of Broad and
Meeting streets.
The police station is almost a complete
wreck. ,
The City Hall apparently escaped serious
damage, but is badly cracked on the east
wall, and the court house building is badly
damaged, the walls being cracked in several
places and portions of the roof Had gables
being thrown down. The fireproof build
ing reems to stand ns a rock. The gables
ot the north and south porches, however,
made of solid brown stone, have been
thrown to the pnvement below. This ap
pears to be the only damage dono to tho
building. The worst wreck in the locnlity,
however, is St. Michael's church, which
seems to be doomed to destruction. The
steeple, repairs on which had just been com
pleted, seems to be intact, but it is nearly
out of plumb and is in momentary danger
of falling. The massive porch Ims been
wrenched from the body of the church and
(fas building bus been erncked in four
places- One crack in the north wall ex
tends fr.uu the eaves to tho lower window.
Two on the west face of the church extend
the entire height of the building, and one
on the south wall also extends from tho
saves down almost to the foundations.
These cracks are all immediately under
the steeple, which it seems almost impossi
ble will stand for any length of time,
(CISC AXl> MKETINC STREETS.
The buildings between Meeting and King
streets are all more or less damaged, the ef
fect of the earthquake being the same ns in
other parts of the city. The front wall of
Dr. DeSaussurc's residence has been thrown
down, leaving the attic floor exposed West
of King street the most serious damage is to
the Episcopal residence. The gable end
b*e been thrown down, the wall falling on
the root of the. spacious porch and crushing
it in. The Rtcund floor veranda of Capt.
’Vnggener’s house, on tho west side, has
been crushed in, but beyond this the build
ingeliows no sign of the terrible shaking of
Tuesday night. What a scene of desolation
the fashionable boulevard of Charleston
presents! Commencing nt Broad street one
passes through n block of burned houses.
The fire, starting nt No. 118, third building
from the corner of Broad street on the east
side, consumed an entire row of buildings!
as far north as Tully’s old stand, next the
Quaker graveyard. The few houses left on:
that side of the street are more or less shat
tered and gntted. Tho low houses on the
west side of the street, north of Broad
street, haye not escaped the general fate, al
though the damage is not ns great ns in oth
er portions of tho street. An immense va
cant lot on the west side of the street is oc
cupied by families who lived in burnt hous
es and who nre camped out on it with a few
household effects saved from the flames.
From Queen street to Jlorlbnck’s alley al
most every house is shattered, the tops of
the wails near the roof being thrown down.
THE GERMAN ARTII.I.ERV’S 11X14.,
In Wentworth street the handsome hall
of the Gorman Artillery has been badly
damaged. The northeast and northwest
corners of the building have both gone.
A brick house opposite on George street
is badly damaged. The shock on Tuesday
night severed the pipe through which the
water was forced into the stand pipe, and
during the progress of tho fire the pressure
was applied directly to the main. This pipe
was, however, replaced, and the stnnd pipe,
which was uninjured, was filled with water.
All over the city tho injury is of the same
character.
9 FISSURES IN TIIE EARTH.
A special report from Mount Pleasant,
opposite Charleston, says that a sink near
the German church, which on Tucsdny was
perfectly dry sand is now full of fresh wa
ter. Near Shell strett there is a cabin oc
cupied by a colored man, th: t is completely
surrounded by yawning ehnsnis extending
through the earth’s surface tor ten feet and
over. All around this there are signs of
fresh wnter and masses of mud, with clear
looking soft substances that have never been
seen before. It is contended by ninny that
the substances found hto volcanic matter.
Just after the first great shock on Tuesday
night there was a decided and distinct smell
of escaping sulphuric acid gas over the en
tire village. Tho smell lasted throughout
the night. It was distinct in those locali
ties where the cavities in the earth were
m st numerous.
Some say that a portion of the mud thrown
up by iho waterspouts is strongly impreg
nated with sulphur.
Not (ar from Charleston, on the road to
Summerville, extensive mounds of Clay are
thrown up and hillocks of sand, in most cas
es in tho shape of inverted cones, the hol
btv part of which find evidently been form
ed \>y the action of the water returning in
to the depths from which it had been raised.
Cracks and fisliures are everywhere visi
ble for miles around. Strungcly enough,
some of these were in active operation, and
constant shocks that were felt at Summer
villo sent water out of these fissures in jets
to a height of twenty feet.
The down Columbia train jumped the
track. The engineer nnd fireman were bad
ly injured by the tremendous leap which the
train took in tho dark under the influence
of the shock. It is said that the earth sud
denly gave way and tho engine first plung
ed down a temporary declivity. It was then
raised on the top of a succeding terrestrial
undulation, .and having reached the top ot
the wave « Hidden swerving of the force to
the right nnd left hurled the ill fated train
down an embankment. In many places
along the truck of the South Carolina and
Northeastern railroad, and for spaces of sev
eral hundred ynrds in width, the dreadful
energy of tho earthquake was extended in
two particular ways.
First there were intervals of a hundred
yards and more in which the track had the
npp-isu-ance of having been alternately rais
ed and depressed, like n line of waves froz
in their last position. The force nlso oscil
lated from the east to tho west, bending the
rails in reverse curves, in the shape of the
letter S. These Utter accidents occurcd al
most invariably at trestles. There were no
less than five of them between Sevenmile
Junction und Jedliurg. In other places the
truck had the appearance of being kinked
for miles, but always in those cases in the
direction of the rails. The train at the tipie
of the earthquake was running at the usual
speed, aud about a mile south of Jedburg it
encountered n terrible experience. It was
freighted with hundrods of excursionists re
turning trom the mountains.
They were all gay and happy, when all of
a sodden, in tho language of one of tho ex
cursionists,the train appeared to have left the
track und was going up, up, up into the air.
This was the rising wave. Suddenly it dc
| scended, and as it rapidly fell it was flung
first violently over to the east, the side of
the car leaning over at less than on angle of
45 degrees. Tbeu there was a reflex action,
nnd the train righted nnd was hurled with a
roar ns of the discharge of artillery over to
! the.west, and finally subsided on the track,
i and took a plunge downward, evidently a
downward wave. The engineer put down
brakes tight; hut so great was the inomen
turn that the train kept right ahead.
It is said that the train actally galloped
along tho track, the front and rear trucks ol
the couches rising aud falling alternately.
The utmost confusion prevailed. Women
nnd chileren shrieked and the bravest heart
quailed in momentary expectation of u more
| terrible catastrophe. Itcv. Ellison Capers
chanced to he on board, und he -lost-no time
in conveying, ns best he.could in the agony
of the moment, the best adrice and coun*l.
The train was then taken back in the direc
tion of ffedburg, and on the wwy 'back the
work of the earthquake was'terribly patent.
The train hud actually passed over one of
those rerpentine curves already -described,
and it is simple truth to -state that every
soul on board was saved solely through the
interposition of divine providence.
Last night the old scenes of fright and
fear were enacted in the public squares and
park. Frail w mien, some of them almost
dead, and infants in arms, were driven to
the necessity of spending the night in 'the
squares, with only such covering as cotfid
be improvised by the use of blankets,
shawls and sleets. In many of the squares,
notably at Washington Park, the fright and
annoyance to these people were increased
by the excruciatiug religious performances
ot the colored people who crowded the
parks. In Washington Park these were
led by two negro men with stentorian voices,
who shouted and yelled and shrieked until
long after 1 o’clock in the morning.
They were asked to desist, or nt least to
conduct the services in a less boisterous
manner, but refused to do so. Remon
strance on flic part of some gentlemen pro
duced very insolent replies on the part of a
number of negroes who shared in the con
duct of the meeting, snd Who loudly and
boisterously protested that they would make
as much noise as they pleased, and that no
interruption would be allowed. The night
wore on slowly nnd painfully.
At 11:50 o’clock a henvy earthquake pass
ed through the city. Its coming was pres
aged by quite a number jjf'explosions dim
and distant, which commenced to he heard
fully five minutes before the vibration was
felt. The wHve.<waß somewhat more pro
nounced than the two which had preceded
it, the one at 8:25 o’clock in the morning
and the other at 5:15 o’clock in the evening,
nnd as it passed by to the mTrthwest there
followed sounds which indicated falling
walls or buildings- This was the last vibra
tion last night. Soon after it had passed a
man appeared and advised the people to go
to their houses, stating that he was the only
scientific man in the city, and that he was
authoricy for the statement that there would
he no more shock.s. This ndvice was un
heeded, very few people leaving the grounds.
At daybreak there was a movement, nnd
as the sun rose nnd as there had been no
additional vibrations, many of the people
pulled up their tents nnd departed to their
shattered homes in the earnest hopo that
they had participated in their last encamp
ment in the park.
In St. Andrew’s parish for ten miles on
tho other side of tire Ashley river bridge the
country is cut up hy small fissures and mud
holes of from tin inch to two feet in diarne
j ter. These holes have emitted blue mud
and gray sand in large quantities, and the
wliulo surface of this area is covered with
little mounds.
People living in tho parish say that the
mud anil water boiled up from fire to ten
feet in height, and they nil seem to be in
the most demoralized condition.
One old negro woman said that the view
of the city was. a «K»»t appalling sight. Af
ter tho shocks were felt, the .eries from the
(firy could be distinctly heard, and almost
immediately tlie light from the fires lit up
the heavens over the city. The colored res
idents of the parish thought that judgment
day had come and commenced crying and
praying for mercy. At Williams’ farm,
near the three-mile post, the surface of the
ground was disturbed by vent holes, which
threw out during the night seven different
kinds of sands, varying in color and shade.
At Suninierviile ye«terd*y the aceties were
such as it is iaijvassible to adequately de
scribe. All tiie stores were closed, nnd the
few people who wens on the streets wander
ed about in on aimless way, not knowing
what next to expect. All the inhabitants
had abandoned their houses after the shock
on Tuesday night; and but few of them had
the bravery to roturn. The shock is said to
have been much more violent than in Charles
ton, but the geneial characteristics were of
course the same.
In Summerville, however, the people rush
ed affrighted into tho black darkness. In
the general gloom and dispair the wail of
tbe women, the shrieks of children and the
: frightened yoiees of the men made up a
, scene nnd sounds that weie equally ns dis
tressing and appalling ns in Charleston.
All through the night there was nothing but
sickness and sorrow and suffering and con
stant dread of final dissolution and utter nn
-1 nihilntion. When morning dawned ruin
and devastation were found to be complete,
j There was not a home that had not been
made desolate in a greater or less degree.
All chiinueys had disappeared, walls were
rent in twain, ceilings (ell, and in numerous
eases houses that rested on wooden blocks or
or masonry were leveled to the ground.
Other houses wete split from top to bot
tom nnd left with yawning chasms in the
buildings. In the yard, strange to say, the
water from the well eamo up like a water
spout nnd overflowed the yard and deposit
ed six inches ol sand for a distance of twen
steps around the well.
