Williws ‘vesidence. NOT SCARED A BIT, A Talk on Thres Prominent Southern Toplos. Philadelphia Record: “Great shakes!™ “Well, they were,” said Secretary of State Lipscomb, of South Carolina, as he recited a number of intercsting facts, in- terspersed with humorous anecdote, con- corning the recent earthquake in that section of the contry. The spice of the southern accent added fluvor to a state- ment that would command attention under any circumstances. ‘‘No person,” said General Lipscomb, ‘‘who saw can accurately deseribe the cirenmstances, and one who was not there can have no real conception of what took place. “But," continued he with a twinkle in his eye, we're used to it now down our way. Why, bless you, if a darkey should hap- pen to have hold of a chicken’s leg ina convenient hen-roost when a shovk comes along nowadays, he doesn't drop the fowl rud commence to pray like he used to—not a bit of it—he just hangs on to the chick. 1Itis astonishing how fear fostered honesty, especially kmong the colored people. After the first groat shock, when ruin met the ove overy- where, the fronts of many of tho stores in Charleston were completely shattered and the wares of the morchants lay in- sido fully exposed to vie at. Under ordinary circumstances no trace of the goods would be found if left unprotected, but the owner had no fear at all after the quake—all the time was taken up in prayer. No one eyine disposition to meddie with his bor’s property. “While the dispatshes were full of news concerning the disaster in Charleston, but slight attention was paid to the dam- age done along down through the center of the state. An interesting fact in this connection is that the disturbances were most severe through the phosphate re- ending from the Waccamaw n as far as Beaufort and Port A armers’ housos, set up on brick or stone supports, were turned upside down and broken almost to splinters, but they were so far removed from the pop- ulous centers that Little notice was taken of them at the time. In the soil all along that line can be found the bones of fishes and animals that would indicate the former existence of species we know nothing of now, so that probably long before Columbus came over the country was shaken up with in- ternal convulsions, Nearly all the rents and fissures have closed up, though a few still remaun. Another peculiar thing is that with the first openings quantities of sand were thrown up the like of which had never been seen before. In Charles- ton we haye a number of artesian wells ranging probably from 1,000 to 1,600 feet deep, but no such speciniens of sund came up from them as we found wlong the fis- sures after the first shock.” THE SCARE WEARING OFG. ““In the city the cries of the colored people toat the world world was coming to an end seemed at one time as if about to be realized, but, though only a short time has elapsed since the first scare, scem to have become entirely use to the matter and searcely pay any attention to the shocks, Painteas working upon scaf- folding along the wail of a high building will suadenly sway from side to side. In- stead of becoming frightencd, the man quietly places imself in a comfortable position and waits calmly till the ropes cense swaying, when he resumes work, One day in the state house it was feared that the plaster on the ceiling would be shaken down. The clerks simply put on their hats to break the force of tho fall in case any d ded, and proceeded with business. We go to bed at night now and sleep naturally. If we wako up and find the bedstead waltzing down toward the opuosite wull we roll_ over to the other side and take another nap. *No, 1t doesn’t bother us any more. The darkies who shouted themselves hoarse with prayerful pronnses of re- formation now lie and steal as they did of yore.”’ A SOUTHERN VIEW OF TI Turning his attention for a moment to the colored people, the general said: “You folks up north he istake our at- titude to the colored r: 1f you could come down and live with us awhile you would feel just us we do. You've got to take tee negro for what he is. You can- not disgrace him. He does not under- stana the fecling. You may charge him with the meanest of erimes and prove it on him; tell him to get out of your sight and neverto look you ngam. The next moment he will turn about and ask you for a ‘chaw terbaccer.’ For some iod has made him different from aind we must get along with him as best we can, and we doso. The talk that one hears in portions of the north regarding persecation of the negro is all nonsense, and he will tell you 5o as quick as any one.” e The mania for collecting postage mps seems to be gaining more ground an ever in France, writes the Paris cor- respondent of the London Daily Tele- graph. Among the most famous collce tors in France is & man who has over a million postage stamps preserved in thir- teen richiy-bound volumes, and another who keeps two clerks employed in classi- fying and arranging his enormous collee- tion.
