The Winchester Times, of the 14th,
says: "We are informed by reliable
gentlemen, residing near and beyond
the Shenandoah, in the direction of
Berryville, that one night last .week,
by a singular convulsion of the earth,
immense rocks were displaced and
removed some distance. Mr. Daniel
Snyder scarcely recognized his own
place the next morning on arising.
Every stone and reek around his
house had been removed. Mr. Snyder
thought a small portion of the Rocky
Mountains had fallen into his barn?
yard . We understand it was the same
csise ""in the mountains beyond the
river-rocks of enormous size being
displaced. Here is something for
scientific men to unravel. Most
singular to say, no one noticed any?
thing unusual during the night.
Notice.

Valuable and Extensive Water Power
in the City of Columbia for Sale.
Ordered by the l?gislature af South Carc
n tina.
THE undersigned Commissioners, ap?
pointed by tho General Assembly of
South Carolina, at its late session, will
roeeivo bids for the valuable WATER
POWER known as the COLUMBIA CANAL,
until the first day of April next.
The Canal is eight thousand six hundred
and fifty-four yards long, and the average
fall for the first threo miles is fourteen feet,
commencing at ten feet at Upper Btrect, in
Columbia, and attaining nineteen feet one
inch at Bridge street; tho remaining two
miles, from Bridge street to its mouth,
commences at nineteen feet ten inches, and
attains a fall pf twenty-five feet. Fine
building sites exist between tho canal and
river, giving complete protection to build?
ings and.machinery from freshets. The
State, through the undersigned, will con?
vey the canal and all its appurtenances,
together with the right of way for sixty
feet on each side of the centre of the canal
to the purchaser. Compensation to the
adjacent land owners for the right of way,
to be made by the purchaser, on the'same
just and equitable terms that theeright of
way wa<* convoyed to the Greenville and
Columbia Railroad Company, by , Aot -.of
15th December, 1845.
This power has been accurately surveyed
by Prof. John LeConto, of the SotUJtt Caro?
lina University; his report, together with
tho Act of tho General Assembly jind this
advertisement, has been printed, and may
bo obtained by addressing Jas: G. Gibbes,
Esq., M3yorof Columbia.
Prof. LcConte estimates that by doubling
the original capacity of the canal, as re?
quired by the Act, that the power secured
to Bridge street will be 355 horse-power,
the average head being fourteen feet; and
from Bridge street to its mouth 532, horse-,
power, with an average head, of twenty-one
feet, and a current of one foot per second.'
With a current of two feet per seeoud, the
powers would bc 710 and l,06i horse-power ;
and if thc machinery is not run at night,
the power may be: doubled by accumulat?
ing water in reservoirs.
"As tho supply of. water," aajrts Prof.
LeConte, "which mar bc turned fl om the
river into the canal ai its head, is almost
unlimited, the canal can be enlarged to an
extent commensurate with the demand for
water power. If. desired, it may be made
to supply water to tho extent of 5,000 horse?
power or mora. In fact, by very simple
arrangements, one-third or one-half, or
even more, of the whole water in Broad
River, might bo turned intn auch an en?
larged canal."
This w?tor power is literally within tho
city of Columbia. Thc city is now supplied
by railroads penetrating nearly every Dis?
trict in the State, furnishing the produc?
tions of cotton, rice, wheat, beef and pro?
visions, with little expense at this important
point.
The city of Columbia is supplied with gas
and good*water, tho climate is salubrious
and healthy, being above the miasmatic
region, and invites, for pleasant settlement I
and society, merchants, artisans, mecha- |
nies, manufacturers and persons of for-,
tuno and leisure.
The property will be sold on the following
conditions, to wit: 1st. Thc purchaser
shall, within two veal's from the date of
conveyance, comp?ete tho widening and
deepening of said canal to at least twicoiti
origininal capacity. (Its original capacity
was fifteen feet wide at top. eight feet at
bottom and four feet in depth; to double
it according to Prof. LeConte's report, it
will require tho removal of 36,107 cubic
yards of earth, and 3,200 cubic yards of
?tono to Bridge street, and from Bridge
street to its mouth 22,176 cubic yards oi
barth-no stone to bo removed.) That the
?ianie shall always be kept open for boatiug
purposes, free of charges, to .where it is
now used. (This will not interfere at all
with thc water power for driving machine?
ry, as boats only descend as far as the first
eek, near Upper .street.)
That thc water shall not become stag
lant, and thatit shallnot be used foi-other
:han hydraulic purposes.
That one-third of the sum bid shall be
.>aid within thirty days after notice of ac?
ceptance of bid; one-third at the expiration
>f six months therefrom, and the. remain
ng third at the expiration of twelve
uonths. Titles delivered on payment of
irst instalment, and that the title herein
>roposed to bc conveyed shall revert to the
State, on default being made of any of the
bregoing conditions, including payment
)f all the purchase money.
This water power with its location, in tho
udgment of tho Commisioners, is un
!C|ualed by any in the.Stato of South Caro?
ma, and not surpassed by any in tho
Southern country.
Parties sending bids will please furnish
.he Commissioners with references as to
he ability promptly to make good tho
?ame. t
All the communications may bo addressed.

* ' O 25 DFL - "
This horse was raised in Southern Rus?
sia hy a Circassian soldier. Like the Ara?
bians, the nomadic people of his tribe form
the strongest and most inviolable attach?
ment to their unexcelled horses. They
make their favorite coursers thou* special
companions, and train them to bc very
fleet and intelligent. The Circassian, dur
- ing one of his wandering tours, became
very needy, and soon found eager pro?
posers for the purchase of his splendid
norse. At last he consented to part with
him: He was brought before the pur?
chaser, and there ensued a scene that has
been used as a subject of a poet's pen. At
a signal from him, the horse,
"With flowing tail and flying mane,
With nostrils never stretched hy pain,
Mouth bloodless to tho bit or rein,
And feet that iron never shod,
And flanks unscarred bv spur or rod,
The bounding horse-tho wild-the free
Like a wave that dashes on the sea.
Came proudly thundering on."
There stood the noble horse, the admi?
ration of every beholder. No steed of the
Tartar or Ukraine or Arab breed could be
more beautifully formed. . Never did Land?
seer or Rosa Bonheur see or imagine a
more perfect animal.
