Two Italians keeping "bach" here on the hill, having been greatly annoyed by parties stealing fruit from their garden, kept watch on same, and caught some boys led by John Leech in the act of stealing their grapes. Leech, who had a gun with him, presented it at one of the Italians, threatening to shoot him. Italy, not relishing such arguments. entered suit before 'Squire Gaston against Leech. Simultaneous with this information another was made before 'Squire Holiaud.

It seems that the lady in question had been strolling on the hill near the house of the defendant, who had met her, and as she alleges, placed his hand on her shoulder, and asked her to comply with his wishes. Mr. Wm. F.

Barclay, who was conducting the case for the defense, at this stage of the proceedings wished to know how it was that on account of the defendant's ignorance of English that he had to have an interpreter at the hearing, yet at the alleged assault he could mike himself understood so easily and what washer reason lor making no outcry when there were parties within seventy yards of where they were. The outcome of the whole affair is, that the Italian is bound over to appear at court to answer the charge, Mr. Barclay being his bail, and negotiations are being made to saw off one suit against the other. Later we will advise readers of the result. a.

AS OLD SOLDIER BOY FROM JIOXOXGA HELA IN THE EARTHQUAKE. 1 write you from Oakland, C. Sept. 10th, thinking perhaps your read era would be interested in an account of the great earthquake from an eye witness. 1 will endeavor to describe some of the peculiar sensations exper ienced.

I am located about seventy miles in an air line from the city of Charleston, and about fifty-five from Summerville, the two points in South Carolina, at which the shock was most severe, and the greatest amount of damage sustained. The first and heavi est shock began a few minutes before 10 o'clock p. August 31st, and was preceeded by a low rumbling sound, very much resembling the distant roar of large body of waier over a precipice, and rapidly drawing nearer. At first we supposed it was a cyclone approach ing, but as there was not a cloud visi ble iu the heavens, this idea was soon abandoned. We were not long kept in ignorance, however, for in very few sec onds the shock was upon us in all its fury.

It lasted, I should judge, about thirty seconds, and right here I want to say they were the longest thirty seconds I ever experienced, Two hours on an outpost, in the mountains of West Virginia, on a dark night, and the bushwhackers creeping on you on all sides, was not a circumstance compared to those thirty seconds. We expected every instant to see our houses dashed to pieces. All articles such as lamps, vases, clocks, pictures and toilet articles generally, were shaken off their places, and dashed to pieces. Chimneys were thrown down, doors were dashed open and shut alternately, by the swaying of the buildings, Add lo this the neighing of horses, braying of mules, bellowing of cattle, whining and howling of dogs, squalling of fowls and you have a mildly drawn picture of the experience of those thirty sec onds. But the worst has not been told Gradually the tremor subsides, and the ominous roar dies away in the distance.

Then there arises on the sti'l air a sound that almost freezes the blood in one's veins. It is the shrieks and cries of terrified women and children It is a terrible thing to be compelled to listen to shrieks of agony, and cries for help, not able to render aid. You will better understand the situation when I explain that our settlement is composed of about twenty families whose houses are scatered over a con siderable area, none than three hundred yards from a common centre, but no two closer together than per haps seventy-five yards. As each fam ily had the same trouble to contend with, it was impossible to go to the assistance of each other This state of affairs was of short dur ation however, for again Is heard the coming roar which denotes the ap proach of another shock. We all sit down outside our houses, and in silence await its coming, not knowing what the result will be.

Fortunately it proves to be slight as compared with the first, 1 don't know how better to describe one's feelings during the short interval between the hearing of the accompanying roar, and the shock, than to compare it to some of our war experiences. To all, you old soldiers, I would say imagine yourselves drawn up in line of battle; you know the enemy is advancing; presently you hear tiring on the picket line, next the skirmishers become engaged, and you are sure that in a very few minutes the battle will open in earnest. It is not necessary for me to ask any of you what were your sensations during the intervals Awaiting the approach of an earthquake is a paralel case, with t.ie exception that in one we have to deal with man; in the other, an invisi ble power that we know nothing of. If we get whipped in battle, wo can run away -provided we don't get shot. You can't run away from an earthquake; it will catch you "sure," From the time of the first until twelve o'clock midnight we experienced seven yery distinct shocks, with intervals of about twenty minutes intervening, and the same mental agony had to be endured each time, for no one could tell but what the next one would bo worse than any of the others, The sensation to one standing on Mio ground during a shock, was very similar to that produced by an electric battery.

The wave motion of the earth was quite perceptable. Water in wells was agitated, and rose to a height of several inches above its ordinary level, but recedod after the shock passed. I have abundant proof of this from the fact that the pipes in a largo well from on up to whites also) thought the day of Judgment had surely come. One old colored woman said to me: Marster Joe, I was certain sure dat de day of Jeedgmint had come, and I listened for to bear ole Gabriel blow his hor'n. When I didn't hear dat trumpit, I open de cabin door pad look- ed out to see de blessed Marster dar.

But I know'd dat when he did come thar was to be a light in de east, an' lookit to de east and saw no light, den I know'd it was a false alarm." At this writing all has become quiet. and it only remains to repair the dam age wrought, I see by the papers that contributions are pouring in from all sections of the country, but do not see or hear of anything from Monongahela City, How is this In conclusion I would say that I have passed through four rather trv ing ordeals in my time, viz: the war, a western blizzard, a three day's storm, on the Atlantic on board a steamer, and an earthquake. It is a hard matter to decide as to which is the most undesirable. It lies between the two latter, with, I think, a percentage in favor of the earthquake. Yours truly, J.

As the time draws near for the Annual Conference, the Methodists are wondering what kind of a man will be sent to this dis trict.

Key. Meeeuem's time is out, with the close of this conference year, and we ope he will be superseded by a man of ability as it would be rather hard for us to escend to mediocrity when we have had such an excellent 1'residinir Elder. If 1 were permitted to offer suggestions to the Conference 1 would say. Give us a man clean and pure. Don't send a man into th's district who so far allows the "flesh and the Devil" to rule him, as to let the filthy tobacco habit be his master.

No man is fit to preach the Gospel whose personal habits are a stumbling block to his hearers. During the last camp meeting quite a number of the ministers were to be seen out across the woods surreptitiously smoking their tobies. To mv mind the only difference between them and those who slipped oft to take their drinks was one of degree and not of kind. In fact, the line can hardly be drawn between the moderate drinker and the immoderate smoker. The action of the M.

E. Church on this question was hailed with delight because no candidate for the ministry will be admitted who is not free from this habit and when the old men who are wedded to their idol have died we can thank God for a ministry with clean mouths and we will not be compelled to take the Gospel from such a filthy souree. A small fire occurred last night. Mr. McCollum's frame stable was burned about 12 o'clock.
