San Francisco, Oct. 8th There was a light rain last night and about day light tint morn ing, quite a thnwer, Tho weather iliit morn ing, waa clear and warm with a fresh bi'eeie. At precisely fifteen minutes to 1 P. M. the heaviest r-arthunuke ilmok wblch wai ever felt in Situ Francisco, occurred. The motion wo iiudulatiry from nnrth-eatt to louth-west. P.vervhnile rnslu-d liistuntlr tn train access to the streets. Five seconds alter another and fur heavier one occurred, and the uproar earn ed by falling walls, glass coming down in show en mi the aidewalki. the frenzied stampede of thousands of people, horses, running away, belli ringing, 4cc, waa indeicriliable. Women fainted and men screamed, church congrega Until piled pver euch other In the excitement to escape, and many peopli jumped Irom leo- ond story windowi, in cases receiving icvcre Injnriei. Tho whole town ii now in audi un excite ment that it ii impossible tn learn the extent of the daniueo or the number of accident. The ohimncyi falling from the rear of Lick Hnuie oriiihed the kitchen and injured three icrvunti. none ol them fatally. Three Men were in jured hy falling hriuka at Ore Mills warehouse. One man Jumped Iroin the window mroogii a skylight into the Metropolitan Market and wai badly injured, and many limilar incident! oc curred all over town. The congregation in the Catholic church on Vallejo itreet oarricd away the doors entirely in reaching tiio street, anu leveral women and children were lerioualy in-1 Jured, though none futullly. The fire wall of the New Orleans warehouse on Davis and Cali fornia itreets, six feet high and thiriy ieveu feet lung, came down in a body. A large see lion of the cornice uuil fire wall of the Ex Change Building, opposite the Custom House, i fell, A new brick building on Third and Mil lion streeta, will have to be pulled down entire ly. The ro.ir of the ttnre, Nn. 115 California street, next to George F- Bragg Ac Co., fell out. The front or the lniok building nn the northwest corner of Sacriuieiito and Battery itreets, fell out. A one itory building on the corner of Market nnd Pine streets, was entire ly destroyed. The City liall.walls were crack-1 ed throughout, and the plastering thrown down. I The whole structure ought to come down fur lufety. The City Hall fire bell rang from the thnck. many hundred! of windowi were broken into nieces smaller tlsui a man's hand, and three- fourth! of tho I rick buildings on the madej ground part of tin city are mure or less dam , aged. Many walls wero thrown nut ol line, I so that doors cunust bo opened or closed, and it will be days helure the lull extent uf the damage can he tnaJo known. Aiitnnw-np pears $250,000 wou'd not repair the damages. The injury done tlirsugh the loss of confidence J in the nubility ill' Inrge brick and stone strua-1 tores ii inualuiilalilii. , Everybody ia con-' gratulutiug his neighsnii'on their povidentiul escape ffuiu death. In the present condition , of the walls another shuck of equal violence would prom rate at least out-third of the brick,' building! in the city. From nearly every store in thu lower part uf tin city, people are iweep iug uut broken glass and fallen plastering. Clucki were stopped, water jari np-et. and in i some cases people wer thrown off their feet ' from tlie violence of fie shock. There ii a lively talk on tho immediate repeal of the Fire Ordinance. The Occidental, Cosmopolitan and Lick House being nit natural ground, suffered less than the building! ntrih aud east nf this point and on the Hat south nf Market itreet. The fire walls fur the whole length of Gray'i building on Sacramento itreet, between Mont gomery and Kearney also fell, and sections of similar walls all over town, came down on tbe, sidenulks, rendering it almost incredible that so few accident! occurred. How the people on the sidewalk! escaped so generally ii past oom prehension. Ill the vicinity of Folsoin Misiinn. Hi.iile nnd Fremont itreets, the made ground il disturbed in some places two feet, throwing walls uut of line and moviug huildingi bodily four inches. Stoddard's warehouse lettled eighteen loolies. and water is now oozing in nn the inuin floor. Mission wharf Ii reported daiiinced hy the eliding nf the mud on the hot tt in iu which piles are driven, and three frame buildings on lleule street, between Howard and Mission fell in. The gas works uro oouiidera bly damaged. San Francisco. Octnlur 8th The earth quake did some damage at San Jose and Santa C'ruz, but up to Ibis time we havu not heard ol any nno being injured.
