The White Sulphur Fire.

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, August 4, 80.
Editors Dispatch: In the letter from this
place to the Dispatch giving an account OF
the burning Of our stables we notice that
the statement is made that "there was no
guard at the stable" and that "when the
fire was discovered it had made consider
able headway."
Thi; is not the fact, but the reverse, as we
did have night-watcbman on duty at the
stables every night, and be was the'frst TO
discover the fire, when IL was only a small
blaze, and the stable being full Of hay and
straw, 1t spread so rapidly that in few
minutes the whole building was enveloped
in flames.
You will greatly oblige us by having the
correction made, as the report published Is
calculated to create bad impression on the
minds of the public. Very truly,
ID. f. EAKLE.

Real and Assessed Values i'm Virginia.

The Department OF the Interior addressed
a series of questions TO Judge Watkins and
X. 5. Paulett, Esq, TO ascertain the differ
ence, II any, between "real" and "as-
sessed values OF real estate in and around
Farmvile. The information will be used
in the census official publications. After
conference with businessmen we learn that
these gentlemen report, substantially, that
the real and assessed values OF tOlon lots
average about the same. AS there are so
many forced sales Judicial and under mort
gages) they think there is really no compe-
tition between forced and voluntary sales.
But, inasmuch as owners OF real estate are
not generally willing 10 sell their property
at assessed values, this fact Is an important
element in estimating values.

\ new method Of Salutinu ladies

\ new method of sa!nting ladies on
the street has lately been adopted by
the nobbicst swell gentlemen of tender
years. 1t is done in one time and four
motions. The hat, by II right hand
grasp, is lifted from the head, brought
forward on q line with the nose and
then suddenly lowered to the pit Of the
stomach, then, as suddenly, the hat is
returned to its place, following the
same angular route. The head, at the
same time, must be hobbcl forward to
its natural position. The beauty and
perfection of this saluthtion depend mp
Oh the rapidity Of the execution of its
movements. 1t is known as "the Oar
win jerk" because hand-oryan monkeys
put on and take off their little caps with
the spmc celebrity of motion.

arms relieved feeble ores Of a heavy

Amusing, watching the crowd some
times, remarked an elegant young man
at her side, rcconciliny himself with
what grace he could to Miss Lorainc's
inattention.
Yes she answered, almost inaudi-

The next moment, with sharp cry,
she had sprung from the violet cushions
and was foremost in the gathering crowd.

of his boastcd rcposc of manner, Percy
Dudley followed her.
An aged woman, her beautiful silvcry
hair dishevelcd, her black dress covered
with dust, had Just been lifted from the
