These exercises continued incessantly for sixteen days and nights, with but little intermission, During this time the people all lived in common. No attention was given to labor or property. Oattle, horses and hogs were turned into the woods, and the entire Deople within the range of this awful excitement have concluded that they have but a few more days to live. About 100 have made profession of religion, The closing scenes of this strange meet- ing are represented as most peculiar and wonder- ful. THE MILLENNIUM HOURLY EXPECTED, During most of this period of sixteen days the mountain had continued at intervals to present the same alarming impressions; but, having Prayed, shouted, sung and agonized for this long period, they separated, with the promise that all would remain and die if necessary. It is said that the awe-stricken countenances, the melancholy de- meanor of this vast crowd on the breaking up of the devotions are bevond all description. SMOKE AND VAPOR FROM THE MOUNT.

THE “TERRIBLE LUMBERING.’? The first signs of alarm in this locality were wite nessed on the 10th of February. This consisted in what the people call a terrible lumbering, the earth seeming to quiver to a frigitful extent. ally dying away in the distance, others as the roaring of heavy artillery in the distance. ADDITIONAL TESTIMONY. On tne 12th of February, two gentlemen on the highest point of Baid Mountain, known as Harris’ View, which is said to be next to Mount Mitchell in height, heard this strange nojse. One of them says | it at first reminded him of the falling of heavy tim- ber and presented a strange combination of sounds and impressions. Parties living on the mountain sides and at the base heard the same noise. All taink that the noise was in the mountain. One man says when he was on one side of the mountain the terrible noise was In the direction of the mountain and when on the opposite side the same indications were observed. the noise proceeded alone from this mountain. such a point as to be perfectly terrible.

EXCEEDING FEAR, QUAKING AND PREACHING. Such was the alarm that at about twelve o’clock on the night of the 22d ult. the people for miles around began to assemble at the house of a Mr, Camp. Camp, having gone to the woodpile for wood, became so alarmed that he fell upon his knees and began to pray aloud. Very soon the terrible quaking of the mountain was such that the great crowd now assembled engaged in prayer. At daybreak on Monday morning George Logan, a colored Baptist preacher, was sent for in great haste, and so impatient were they of his arrival | that @ portion of the crowd met him on the road, beseeching him to come and pray and preach, The people thus assembled remained in their devo- tions three days, when they moved a short dis- tance to @ Vacant house, the property of Harris Eliott.

From an eye-witness the scenes e described as most strange and extraordinary. The people came flocking in crowds of fifteen and twenty, including men, women and chil- aren, all presenting the most terrible state of fear, despair and penttence. On the day Mr. Lumly preached the house was terally packed, the preacher barely having room to stand. So great was the rosh tohear that many rushed up the side of the walls and crowded on the joists above. Only a portion of the upper story having 8 floor, and many, not being able to enter the house, crowded their heads in the door and all around the house, manifesting the most intense Interest.
