There is just now great activity in tne real estate market. Quite a number of desirable building lots have recently been placed on the market which are finding a ready sale at fancy price. In this connection we ara informed that other valuable property, which has heretofore been bottled up by reason of the unwillingness of the owners to dis 0 pose of it, will be divided into lots and placed on the market. We understand that many of the purchasers of these lots are people from a distance who have been attracted to our little village by its healthful climate and excellent educational advantages.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: The rainfall has been unusually heavy for some time past, doing considerable damage to roads and washing away the surface of rolling lands and damaging crops to some extent. The weather has been very hot and cotton has improved considerably the last few weeks. On the night of August the 3rd, the heavy rain broke the mill dam of Mr. H. R. Goodwin, of Swansea, undermining his grist and four mill house, causing a heavy loss to Mr. Goodwin and greatly inconveniencing the public generally. Mr. Goodwin is repairing the damages as rapidly as possible. ? Mr. J. I. Laird, who has been suffering from acute rheumatism, we are glad to say is on the mend. Mr. Sampson Jefcoat has been quite ill for some time. His friends earnestly hope that he may soon be restored to permanent health. Mr. Willie D.

There was a reunion of the children, the grandchildren and the great grandchildren of that venerable patriarch, Mr. S. Luther Smith, at his home in the Fork, Tuesday. Mr. Smith is a highly respected and public spirited citizen of this county and his days have been long and full of honor. He is the father of one eon and five daughters, as follows: Mr. Charlie Smith, and Mrs. Jake J. Bickley and Mrs. G. A. Derrick, of this place; Mrs. Perry Fulmer and Mrs. Jacob J. Ballentine, of the Fork, each of whom has a large iamny, and an unmarried daughter. The people of this county certainly take no stock in the "race suicide" theory. A Valuable Water Power. One among the most valuable water powers in this State is in Lexington county, six miles west of the city of Columbia, in a healthy community. It is on what is known as the waters of "Berry" creek, coming into Congaree creek at or near Styx, a station on the Southern railroad. This stream comes out of what is known as Sand Mountain and has a steady flow of pure clear water. This stream when forced in close banks is from four to five feet deep and about eighteen or twenty feet wide with a swift and rapid flow. A This is a magnificent stream 01 waier with a good fall sufficient to produce unknown power if properly developed. This stream has been examined by experts as to its quality for bleaching, and proved quite satisfactory. Especially so as it takes unusual rains to muddy the water in the least, coming as it does from a sand Mountain and flowing through a white sandy country. It has been favorably spoken of as being used to supply the City of Columbia with water, as it is perfectly pure and clear. I This stream flows through what is ! generally known as the "Robertson j lands, but now owned by the heirs of John W. Connor, deceased. Parties wishing to invest in water ' powers in this State, looking towards developing them, or for speculation, would do well to examine and survey this stream. For information apply to Jas.
