cvth, 1 hi., a second class matter.
1 iie I.arlhqnake>
On Tuesday of last week, at 0 10
]. in. the effect s of an earthquake was
felt in our city. There seemed to he
a vibratory motion of the earth
which caused all buildings to he
shaken to some extent. Except the
throwing of few bricks from some
chimney-, no damage has been repor
ted. More or less excitement pre
vailed among most of our citizens, of
which, however, there were no bois
terous manifestations. But from ex
periences detailed since may he
gleaned the fact that fear was produ
ced in the breasts of many.
But why and whence this fear?
Was it the fear growing out of the
thought that the final retribution was j
at hand? and had found those
alarmed not ready? If so, then it is
to he hoped that the effect of the
quake will be beneficial in impressing
all people with the exceeding impor
tance of being always ready to meet
death whether it come through an
earthquake, on the wings of a cy
clone or in any other manner.
The press reports show that the ef
fects of this earthquake were felt in
the states cast of the Mississippi, and
as far north as the lakes. The effects
at Charleston, S. C., was greater than
at any other point reported, and the
results and damages there indicate
that this ill-fated city was in closer
proximity to the center of the distur
bance than any other point on this
continent. These disturbances are
evident ly subterranean, and therefore
the true cause of them is to a great
extent a matter of conjecture. They
are the ful-fillment of God's declared
word. They are of seldom occurrence
on this part of the American conti
nent. The center of last Tuesday’s
earthquake is undetermined and
may remain so, but its violent effects
on our eastern shore point in that di
rection for it.
The financial damages to the city
of Charleston is reported to be mil
lions of dollars, while the loss of life
and injuries to persons are considera
ble.

Try them.
Can It be remedied.
Tt is not in accord with our wishes
or feelings to censure our fellow man,
whether an humble citizen or an offi
cial entrusted with authority. Nor
do we write these lines in any spirit
of censure. But, as a chronicler of
current events, when we see public
duties conducted so as to be unneces
sarily burdensome to tax payers, we
feel it our duty to call attention to the
same.
Our first week’s court proceedings
furnish conclusive proof that oursupe
rior courts are sometimes conducted
so as to create an unnecessarry bur
den upon our tax payers. One ease
alone consumed several days. Being
submitted to a panel of the grand jury,
it blockaded all other work of the court
for the time, save the work by the
grand jury committees. The traverse
jurors could do nothing except to lose
their time from their farms and draw
from the county two dollars, each,
per day for doing nothing.
Now when there is upon the docket
a ease, tlie investigation of which is
likely to be protracted through sever
al days, would it not be well for the
court to adjourn the trial of that case
to an adjourned term, and allow tlie
court to proceed with other cases de
mandingattention at the regular term
Prudence, economy, and a regard for
t lie interests of other litigants certain
ly dietate such a course. To hold ju
rors in attendance upon the court day
after day for a number of days in idle
ness, while one case is being invest iga
is certainly profitable to no one,
and, it seems to us, an uunessarry ex
pense to the county. Besides such
proceeding clogs the court with busi
ness and discommodes clients and at
torneys interested in other cases.
Courts should be conducted with an
eye to the dispatch of business UTUi
thereoy make the Burden of the same
as light as possible. Is there no rem
edy applicable in eucli ease?

Itlonroe Female College.
The New York Examiner speaking
of our college says:
After the burning ofthe large, com
modious building of Monroe Female
College, many were afraid that this
institution, which had educated so
many of our mothers, wives and
daughters, could not survive; but
gradually she has kept building up,
and now, with a large building on
the spot where the old one stood,
Professor R. T. Asbury as president,
and an able corps of assistants, a
brighter future is before her. Miss
Kate M illedge, who lias had charge
of the art department, and led such a
useful life in connection with this
school for fourteen years, died just
before commencement. Her death
was quite sudden, and caused great
grief to her many friends. The art
department will be filled by Miss
Laura I. Bacon, of Albany, an excel
lent. intelligent lady.
Another Colored Exodus.
The Macon Telegraph under the
above heading contains the follow
ing paragraph :
The republican party hopes to
get up a negro exodus by 1888.
which may transfer the negro vote
to points where it will do the most
good. It has been a matter of long
standing complaint with the repub
lican managers that in parts of the
south there are many republican
negroes whose votes are wasted and
that the race is not making an}’ ad
vancement. There has been for
several years an organization to look
after this matter. Fred Douglass,
of Washington city, is president of
the organization. Jle has studied
the question carefully and collected
many statistics. The republican
committee, which has a large sum
of money at its disposal, purposes to
distribute these colored men before
the campaign of 1888 where they
will do the most good. Several
agents have been making observa
tions and reports upon the state of
things. It is intended to send large
colonies to certain parts ot Missouri,
where a few more votes are needed,
and to southern Indiana. Dakota,
too, has been considered a good
place for a large colony preparatory
to its admission into the Union.
Milton Turner, a colored lawyer, of
St. Louis, who had charge of the
case of the Indian Territory freed
men before congress last winter, is
actively engaged in the matter, and
is highly in favor ot sending a large
colonoy to the proposed territory of
Oklahoma.
If the republicans or others desire
to get up a negro exodus and will
take the exodusters to points fur
ther north where they are not so
numerous, wo can see no special
harm to grow out of it. On the con
trary we are inclined to the opinion
that such moves tend to lift a quasi
burden from the southern people.
If we bo correct then let the exodus
go on.

*♦ T
More Farmers Needed.
A statistical genius in Illinois pre
sents a very plausible theory about
the cause ot industrial depression,
lie produces census figures to show
that while our agricultural products,
like others, increased very largely
between 18l>0 and 1880, they did not
increase abreast of the demand for
them, as indicated by the increased
export demand and the growing
volume of the country’s manufactur
ing, mining and railroad interests.
The result of this difference was that
the agricultural products per capita
decreased instead of increasing; and
although in speculative markets the
price of wheat, for instance, has fluc
tuated with a downward tendency,
the average cost of living has in
creased, Ilis remedy, which is cer-
not revolutionary, is an in
crease in the farming population,
which must be combined with an in
creased diversity of agricultural pro
ductions and the adoption of more
scientific methods of fertilizing and
reclaiming worn-out lands. In this
connection the breaking up of large
farms into small ones would be desi
rable, and laws which would dis
courage the monopolization and idle
ness of land would be of important
assistance in accomplishing the re
sult sought for. Ex.

In memory of Kate XapicrJ Re
gret After Waltlier.
She is dead, could she be called back,
Mo troubled thought over that dark
stretch
Would bring is grief or wonder
Rut earth and air is deaf to the cry,
Nor answer conies back from the,
Mameless yonder.
Time grips as a day a thousand years,
With the births, the pains, and mistery,
That soul in braving its fathomless spheres,
Rose as the white mizzen of the ship
To do deat-is battle.
Her life a living prayer to truth,
Is ended, why. naught will tell us;
Philosophies, begotten from the realms of
chance,
Lights from the arc of dubious suns,
Nor the wasting cycles above us.
Over all. this, forever will be.
Death comes but to save—to free
The spirit from its cells so tremulous.
The tomb with its dream, its eternal spell.
Brings the quiet that in the moonflame
dwell,
The peaoojjf_tlni-bFaVC-fity "lotus.
Teryb~ffor vestal tires keep her memory,
But on her grave we drop a tear,
M ere with love than misery.
The Baptists have removed the
overhead plastering from their

ceiling therefor, which, after being
handsomely painted, together with
other repairs, gives to the interior of
the church quite a tidy appearance.
