TIIE HURRICANE.
GREAT DESTRUCTION OF LITE ASI'I
PROPERTY.
500 PEOPI.E DROWNED.
$5,000 IN PROPERTY DESTROYED.
Last week’s storm has proven
1 to be the most destructive of life
I and property along the Atlantic
I coast that has visited our South-
I ern sea coast this century.
For several days preceeding its I
coming iv was predicted by the I
weather bureau, but this did not I
alarm the people, aud when it bu- i
gan last Sunday week,even little I
.1 d the weather-wise prophets
j Anticipate that it would be uucb a I
terrible engine of destruction. It I
came from the Atlantic I
struck New VorK and the Eas-
I torn cities, doing considerable
damage,but if traveled South]
I along the coast it gained in poW-
I er and fury,
I Charleston, Port Royal, Beau-
I fort, Savannah aud the Islands
I along the coast suffered immense
J damage. The winds drove great
J waves up the gavapnah river sev-
I entoen miles and wrecked vtae Is,
destroyed wharves, inundated!
riee plantations aud created gon- I
eral havoc,
At Charleston the storm was 1
terrific and Sullivan’s island was
swept away,the houses destroyed
*tid a great many people killed. I
At Tybee the destruction was I
complete, every house on the I
island was destroyed except one, I
and it was badly wrecked.
There are fifteen or twenty j
islands lying around Port Royal I
ami Beaufort, and upon these the |
storm spent its vengeance 1 Overl
three hundred and ninety dead
bodies have been found on these
islands, and many will probably!
| never be found. On some of
these islands there wu* not
enough living left t > bury the
dead, and their corpses lie rotting
in a hot August sun.
All night Sunday the wind
howled and rain and hail fell in
torrents. The sea rah high, aud
salt waves were driven (weuty
miles inland. It was a terrible
night to tho>e safe on land. They
could not te|l what minute the
wind would grow stronger and
sw<‘ep their houses away. All
uigli; long the people watched,
waited and prayed for Jeliver
apeo.
But it was on the water tbat
the greatest danger and coustir
nation were felt’ Strong vessels
that had weathered an hundred
storms were driven before tbe
wind line toys and swamped in
tbe rolling waves or driven with
such force against the land that
they sunK at once, while tbe peo
pie on board bad to jump Into the
waves aud take their chances to
get on dry land.
THK SAVANNAH LOST.
The magnificent ocean steamer,
City of Savannah, left Boston
and was on her way south with a
full crew, in charge of Capt. Sav
age, an old and ecperienced sea
man, and a large list of pass* n
gers, many of whom resided in
Savannah.
In rounding Cape Hatteras the
storm struck tl® ship, and from
that time on it was a battle for
life. She was able to keep on
*her course until Sunday, but by
night when about opposite Port
Royal the storm increased in
fury, her smoke stack and cabins
were blown, and rain poured in
torrents inside. The tires of the
engine were put out and the cap
tain and crew felt that they were
lost, but bravely he stood at the
helm and manged to have her
driven in the surf on Hunting
Island. But the vussel was lodged
about three miles from shore and
the surf was so rough that even
small boats could n®t live in it.
Two or three tugs were dis
patched from Beaufort but they
could not reach the Savannah ly
iug on her side, and every wave
that came washed over her. Wa
ter and rations were getting
scarce, and the passengers didnot
Know what minute some mons cr
wave would bear upon the hull,
and leave it in broken fragments
at the mercy of the waves.
After the storm had abated

I other vessel was started in charge

but the vessel and cargo was a
total wreck.
I THE WILSON BILL.
This bill which passed the
House lust week and is now pond
ing before the Senate, doi s only
I one thing It repeals that olau-e
I of the Sherman act which provid
I ed for the purchase by the g >v-
I ernment of four million five hun-
I dred thousand dollars of silver
I I u’’ion eaoh month, and the is-
I suing ?f silver ( e ' ificates in lieu
j thereof,
A mistaken ido eems to have
gone abroad, aac that is that the
passage of tins bill is a declara
tion of Congress that a major ty
is opposed to the free coinage of
silver.
While it is ti ue that an over
whelming majority oppose! tie
tacking on pf qny fipe sily r
intendments to this hi ), it does
I uot follow that the men who vot
d to pass (,l)p b||l In )t* original
shape will vote again*' silver.
Mr. Cleveland and Carlysle had
asked that the bill as reported be
passed. They believed that ii
would bring speedy relief to the
financial enibarasaraent of the
country, and were not willing
ter that relief to be delated by a
long fight over the dozen prop -
sitious as to the coinage of silvei
and about which Democrats were
divided. The platform demaded
that this “cowardly masosaift”
be repealed and tbp Democratic
majority hastened to d’seharge
this duty to the people who sent
them there,
If the Senate concurs then
that act wilj be oup bf the way
and Cong, ess can address itself
to the duty of providing for the
[coinage of silver upon such terms
as will meet the necessities of the
country, and wi|l accomplish the
purpose of keening gold and sil
ver on a parity.
As soon as the full effect of
the repeal is seen and silver Ins a
lived and not a flunctuating value
I Congress can settle intelligently
the ra:io, whether Hi to 1 or op
to 1. Had apy of tlipaijynd-
I moots been a fop'ed the probabil
ity is iha another month would
have b< en wasted on this bill.
The ‘ effect of separating the
two bills is to bring up each m< as
ure upon its merits, and as Gen.
Gordon laiff, ts flip fi'ee silver
men are strong enough to’ foige
au amendment to the Wilton bill
they are tr >ng «•« >egb to piss a
separate Hw r-g<.|itjijg the free
coinage of the wh'te metal.
It has b ea intimated that the
President will direct ti e Secreta
ry to proceed at once to coin the
hulliou in the treasury,amount
leg to over 300 m> lif}'i dollars,
in order to supply the demand
for an increased volume of cur
rency.
lhe passage of the act does not
demomtize silver, uor does it re
vise the Sherman act of 1873.
This act expressly provides,
and every man who voted for it
is pledged to maintain the paitty
pf the two coins.
This is its concluding ela ise :
“But this repeal shall not impair
or in any m inner affect the legal
tendei quality of the stall lard
silver dollars heretofore coined.
And the faith.and credit of the
United .'States is pledged lo mini
tain the parity f the siand.u-d
gold and silver .nils of the Unit
el States at tp present legal ra
tio or such ratio as may be es
tablished bv law.”
This is a clear, distinct and un
mistakable pledge given by the
majority that the paiity of the
two metals shall be maintained
and the country given au honest
dollar.
The people want au honest dol
iar with equal purchasing power,
and then it makes no difference
whether the eiieolation is gold or
silver.
Wbat else do we want ? That
the circulation be increased. It
« tu the power of the Secretary
to do this without a new grant of
power for he is already authorized
to coin the bullion in tile treasu
ry.

BE] PATIENT—GIVE HIM A
CHANCE.
While in Atlanta last week we
met Secretary Hoke Smith, who
was on a quiet visit to tlu- city on
business.
In a short conversation on na
tional politics lie said that “the
President was misunderstood and
probably intentionally misrepre
sented. Let the people be patient
and give the President time to de
velop his plan and the country
would be satisfied. These great
financial measures that affeet the
interest of the entire country can
not be disposed ot in a day,
If, instead of maning up their
minds and denouncing tbe Exec
utive, men will wai£ until they
see what be has done, they will
find no cause to complain.”
Is not that just to our leaders
aud party friends? It would
seemso, Give them time to work
out their plau of relief and if it
fails then will be ample opportu
’ nity for those v. ho want to Kick 10
do so.
Thor e is a phencminal state of

ocrals—in fact who assume that
they are the true exponents of its
principles and policy, hunting up
some excuse to stir up strife in
oar own household. The party
has enemies enough to denounce
it in advance. It would seem
that oqr fri(u;ds —moij \ybo want
