Our com'. munity was thrown into a great excitement last night, about 9 o'clock, on account of a sudden shaking of the earth and an un usual rumbling noise in the northwest. The first shock lasted aboutj two minutes, and was succeeded by other j less severe at short intervals. There were about seven, shocks in all, attended by a heavy lum bering noise. The last , shock felt was at about 1 o'clock. It seemed I the first shock would wreck houses, &c. Parties Bay who ran out of doors that the earth was trem bling considerably and . seemed to be in a sliding motion. The sky, was perfectly clear during the time, with gusts of cool wind from the northeast at intervals. There seemed to be a flickering light similar to electric flashes in the north i and northeast. It is unusually cool for the season this morning, with swift gales from the north east" Considerable excitement prevails among our people. 1 Trot. Sent. 1.

Mr. Bruce Williams writes from Long i Creek, Pender county, Septi. 1st:. Three distinct earthquake shocks were felt here about 10 o'clock last night. The first was accompanied by a fearful rumb ling noise and seemed to proceed from a northeasterly to a southwesterly direction. The first shock caused great alarm, and the people of the village, terror stricken, quit their dwellings and took to the street. The houses seemed to quiver, then shake vio lently. The floors of the houses were seen to twist and shiver so that jit was scarcely possible to stand without support. Nearly all felt a peculiar sensation, jas if weakened and benumbed by electricity. A correspondent at Laurinburg writes: Five distinct shocks were! felt here to night about 10 o'clock, accompanied by rumbling sounds like distanj thunder. The Charleston Relief Committee.
