Chat leston, S. C., Sept. 1.—An earth-
quake such as has never befoie been
in, the history of this city, swept Over
Charlestown, last night, shortly after 10
o'clock, causing more loss and injury to
prdperty, and fav mere loss of life, than
the eyelene 01 the year before. Tliecity
is wrecked, the streets are encumbered
with a! mass of fallen bricks end tangled
Oegraph and telepluine wires, and up
to an early hour, it was almost impose
Bible to pass from. one part of the city
•:antetleer. -Ther-shOck- was the most se-
vere. Most .of the people, with their
families, passed the night in the streets;
More. then sixty• persons -were killed or
wounded, chiefiy colored. Bread•street
• presented a speetacle of ,the utmost hor-
• . rar. Even women armed with hatchets
fought valiantly to rescue the imprison-
ed unfortunates, Meetingesteeet, from
Brod to Hazel, a wrecle,was lined with,
uefortuilates.
•,At 8.25 this morning, 'another wave
swept over the city, coining, as the oth-
er did, from the southeast, and ,going in
a south -Westerly direction. •By that
time the people who had been out in the
public parks encl.. open places ell night
had, Many ,of-theni, ventured io, their
houses to get olothine° and something to
eat. The approachof the quake was
i heralded by the usual rumbling sound,
I resembling distant thunder ; then it
gradually approached, the earth quiver -
eel and heeved, and in. three secorids it
had paeseil, the epund dying out in the
distance. This is the only wave felt
since 2.30 this morning. It was not
destructive, all the destructien haying
, been done at 9,55 last night. The city
• is a complete .wreek; , St. Michael's
Church and St. Philip's Chtireli; two of
•the most historic eleurches in the city,
are in ruins. So is the HiberniatiHall,
the Police Station, and many other pub-
lic buildines. Fully • two-thirds .of the
residences in the city, cue uninhabitable;
wrecked either totally. ot'.
