stood a ' v ory old ; colored - woman,

wrt
cued her with intense anxiety.

bodi -s to tlie riglit and to the left aV
t uMately just like a holy dance, and
clijiiig-their handsjin the ecstacy
of thiioci n. Finally one man drop
ped to the ground "converted." rThe
lamp was hastily brought' ' "from the
tent and he was surrounded by , a
crowd of women who held his hands.
He
cried aloud, and
eventually
swboned away and was . almost as
rigid as a coi pse. The .work of con
version then w ent on, and in . less'
than half , an hour ten men and "wo
m 3i had succumbed to the emotion
al sensations of the 'occasion. Simi-
laSfifvnes wrfthfiinp' eri.ictnrl all over

to have selected their hyms with a
view to the appropriateness of the
octtisicn. Ore crowd would sing at
ih top of their voices such a hymn
as tnis: ; J
"Sometimes Pm up, sometimes I'm
-down; -; -'
No man like Jesus. '
Sometimes I'm almost on de groun,'
No man like Jesus."

Again, such hyms as , these were
chanted in refrain: "I once was lost
but now I'm found," etc: "The Son
of Man is bound to die;" 'I want to
go'down under de groun'," and "Ob,
could we touch the hem of his gar
ment!" P P-i A P-
The praveis offered up were sim
.ple in every 'sense of "the word, but
the? evidently came from beairts that
were palsied by fear.. One' of these
prayers was as follows : ; - . - ,
"Oh, my brothers andsisters,what

that McOlamray and "Rowland, tho
Democratic con grrf ftirmal candidate
for the Third and Sixth districts,
will give civil service a black eye in
their campaigns. Thrre'i?, no doubt,
more antagonism to that idea than
was generally known three months

Your cbrrespondlent h is fancied
several time in the past few days, or
rather nights; that ho could feel a
slight but remarfcnbly coubtant tre
mor of the dearth, i lasting perhaps
hours. It was at first attributed to
fancy, but it must be real,' as it is
confirmed "by observations of others.
It aopearsjthat this constant tremor
is felt nightly at Wilmington as well
as here, and that all the builclings'
have a faint motion: This is a new
feature, add i-i haps one of the, most
curious of all connected with . the
earthquake.1' Since Professor' Pow
eirs report, or rather statement, that
the earthquake originated here, some I
people appear to believe this to bo a
fact. He had .very little upon' which
to base his conclusions. I -Political

First MessiB. , Keogh, Harris, and
others denounced the committee;
then Chairman Met t, of the commit
tee, issued p ' : p "'

which provoked another hot reply.
Next Mott issued an address as chair

Judge Settle issued a verj- pointed
card, aimed at Mott and hia gang,
and tc-day fnotaer cara from ur
Mott was received here. It is main
ly devoted to abuse of Judge Settle
and Kecgh. It chaiges the! latter
with being first Settle's pliant tool
and later bis boss. It takes up the
bolt in the party, as it terms the ac
tion of Keogh and others in calling
the Convention over thd heads of tue
committee, and says: "It may turn
out, as Judge Settle says, most , for
tunate that this bolt from the party
has taken place, aEH that th bolters

of this sort they hare not shown it.
