10 THE BALD MOUNTAIN TERROR, A Renewal of the Phenomenon with Greater Violence. Giicial Report of Professor Du Pre, Who Believes It Is Caused by Earthquakes. The Asbeville (N. C.) Expositor of the 2d ‘asserts that the commotion at Bald and Stone mountains on the previous Friday was more wiolent than in February. “Many of the news- papers,” it says, have “treated tims disturbance as a myth and humbug; but the recent tremendous | movement of this mountain bas assumed a charac- ter too serious fur ridicule. We do not pretend to ‘be able to say what may be the result of this won- derfui phenomenon, but the facts stated are strictly | ‘true; and the people feel impressed with the solemn prewonitions of some terrible movement iy this mountain.” ‘The Expositor has detailed accounts of the shak- img, verified by responsible parties, and describes ‘the terror so great even twenty-four miles from the mountain that many settlers are preparing to abandon their homes, There seems, after ail to be little doubt that the shaking of the mountain ts traceable to volcanic amfluences, Professor Du i’re, Geologist of Wotord College, South Carolina, in his oficial report, takes ‘tis.view. Alter describing his visit to the scene @f the disturbance, he says:— ALL THE TESTIMONY which we collected trom the people while passing along the eastern and western side of this moun- tatn, covering a distance of eighteen miles, con- curred in the following summary:—Tnat there were certain days marked by joud reports and vy. severe shakes; that from to seventy-five shocks have been felt since the 10th of February; that the noise begins with an _ explo- sion like a blast, followed by a running lasting only a few seconds; thal th reports, and seemed to iollow the direction of the rumbling sound, with this exception, that those near the top ol the mountain ussert they appear ‘wo be under and all around them; that the reports allcame from Stone and Bald Mountain ridge, ‘those living on the east side pointing to the west, | and those on the west pointing to the east tor the rection of sounds; that these reports occur as often during the night as the ag in fair weather asin foul; that the effects are felt flve mules on eacn side of the mountain ridge, and extend fron Broad River on the southwest to Catawba on the | north—a distance of gwenty-five miles ; that houses shake, trees with their dead leaves trembie, we8 and crockery ratte, shavings in their workshops shake ani ‘‘quaver,” as one expressed | i This testimony was collected from tiirty or forty men and women of diferent degrees of in- telligence, and their remarkable occurrence in the above statement places the tacts beyond the pos- | alpility of doubt. THE CAUSE. Several hypotheses have been proposed to ex- | plain these facts. One is that the biasting of rock about the mountains will account for ail of them. Upon this pomt we made particuiar inquiry. ‘There is certainly nune about Stone Mountain; and a8 the work upon the tunnels in Swannanoah Gap has ceased ‘or more than twelve months, there is no occasion for blasting anywhere else, as fine svones for building purposes, ol every form and size, are scattered over ali these mountains, An- other hypo' resuit of electricity escaping ‘rom the mountain to the cloud, or descending irom the cloud to the mountain. In the first place, these sounds and shocks occnr as olten in iair as in foul weather; and the sounds are uitogether different, as we had an portunity of comparing them during our ‘st mignt’s stay upon the mountain, The simultaneousness of the snocks and explosions proves that the sound has not far to travel through the air toreach the observer; and while the pri- mary cause o/ the explosions may be deeply seated im the earth, yet the immediate cause of the sounds may be at or near the surface. Iam inclined to the opinion that most of the noises accompanying earthquakes are the results of vibratory muve- ments in the earth’s crust, or are the secondary effects of a force acting at great depths beneatn. This opinion seems to be sus‘ained by the evideuce ef the witnesses upon tie summit, as well as five miles from the base of Stone Mountain, ali of whom concur as to the SIMULTANEOUSNESS OF THE SHOCKS and explosions. this it may be objected that earthquake shocks are often unaccompanied with noises, or that the {ormer may precede the latter by several minutes. In reply i wiil state that the crast of the earth is composed of different strata, some pm per ‘of transmitting vibrations that are audible, others that are not, as a string may be made to vibrate, and yet produce no andibie sound, Bow, su our onserver lo be standing upon & section 0: receiving or imparting sound vibrations; ne may fee! the earthquake shocks and yet hear no noise; er if sounds should reach mm aiter an interval ol tame, they come irom a distant section capa- ble of produci them, but which must be trans- ‘mitted to his ear through the intervening atmos- re. ‘his discussion icads me to the conclusion t the phenomena connected with the agitation of Stone Mountain must be referred to that general wolcanic or earthquake force which seems as gecessary to the economy of nature as light, heat or electricity. A North Carolina paper reports that a number of selentific gentiemen from the North, aud one from Prussia, are now exploring old Baldy, and itis likely that ere long the public wiil have the benefit of their conclusions.

Alleged Fraud in the Contracts for the Construction of the Central Pacific Ralilroad—Credit Mobilier Emulated— Strong Argument for an Investigation. | Mr. Luttrell made an argument yesterday before | the House Committee on Pacific Railroads in sup- | port of, his resolution cailing for an investigation | of the’Central Pacific Railroad and the Contract | and Fimance ja bare quorum of the committee present, | consisting of the chairman, Mr. Sawyer, ‘ ana Messrs. Houghton, Williams, Crooke, | McDill, Standeford and Neal. Mr. Luttrell | reminded the committee also that the proposed investigation, by the terms of his resolution, was to be directed to ascertaining whether the gov- ernment was not absoived trom their obligation to pay either the interest or principal of the bonds issued by the railroad company (it is alleged fraudulently) for the benefit of the Contract and | Pinance Company. He adverted to the demand | made by the California Legislature and | press for this investigation, quoted from ‘the sworn statement of Samuel Brannan in his suit against the directors of the Central Pacific Railroad Company, and showed, from “Poore’s Railway Manual,” that the average cost of the construction and equipment of rail- roads in the United States 1s less than $44,000 per mile, and that the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, the country, cost only $40,000 per miie; while the Central Pacific directurs claim that the mere construction of their road, withous any expendi- $112,000 per mile. He insisted that the Contract and Finance Company was worse than the Crédit Mobilier, which bad made $43,000,000 in fraudulent contracts for building the Union Pacific road, and argued that the directors of the Central Pacific had practically confessed the truth of Mr. Bran- man’s statements by settlement with bim. He argued the necessity for an investigation which shouid lead to compelling the Central Pacific di- rectors to «disgorge the tens of millions of dollars which they nad dishonestly acquired to the vast detriment of the government as se | curity for repayment of enormous interest, ad- | vances, and for its liabilities as indorser of the Taiiroad bonds, The company should aiso be com- | pelled to repay these advances and provide a sink. | ing tund of five per cent annually, in accordance With the sixth section of the law of July, 1862, which had been persistently ignored and disregarded. An honest investigation could harm none except guilty partis and the country would be satisfiea with nothing less, Mr. Luttrell read aMdavits of James B. Rogers, Supervisor of Placer county, Cai., asserting that Director Croker had attempted to bribe him (Rogers) to sign a false report in the interest of the Central Pacific Rail. road Company, and had threatened to shoot him if he divuiged the attempt.

THE GREAT VETO. Comparison with the Vetoes of Jackson, Tyler and Johnson—The Consequences ef President Grant’s Executive Action om the Inflation Bill—The Republican Party Demeralized and Disorganized. WASHINGTON, April 25, 1874. The inflationists of the West and South, Jrom their recent unbounded admiration of General | Grant, have suddenly changed their music to the | harshest denunciations, He is, they say, 9 delib- | erate traitor to his best friends, to his own section ‘and bis own people; that he has been bought and sold; that he is Tylerized, or, thatin attempting to play the rdle of Andrew Jackson he bas Jallen to the low estate of Andy Johnson, and that be will | be ground to powder as between the upper and the | Bether milistone.

Van Buren | next, as his anointed favorite, was chosen his suc- cessor in 1836; but Jackson’s pet State banks, un- der his policy of inflation, brought about the col- lapse and revuision of 1834 and the popular whirl- wind of 1840, against Van Buren as the demo- cratic candidate tor a second term. These were the results of General Jackson’s | fimuncial measares, His veto of the bul recharter- | ing the old United States Bank so far streugtiened him as to give im a great triumph for a second | term, and it enabled him to name his successor; | Dut his State pet bank system and his policy of making money plentiful by excessive issues ol irre- deemawle paper broke down Van Buren and de- ron the prestige of invincibility which jor | tweive years had been claimed and proved by the democratic party. 4 TYLER’S VETOES. | ‘The whig party’s President, Vice President and | Congress came 1pto power on the great tidal wave of 1840, and might, perhaps, have been in power at this day, but ror the buit of Vice President Tyler | waiter he vecame President through the death of | Harrison.
