Editori&l Correspondence. AwDxaaoN, July I2tl>. 1869. T arrived here tliia morning, on the wnv to Wallialla to attend the Court just opened for Oeonee County. The railroad arrange menu are not eecommodaling foi Green ville people going lo Walhalla, as we have to wait at Anderson all day till (lie nrrivaj of tlie afternoon train from Beltoo, before we can proceed lo the German City, which is aald to hare been qui'o attractive to visitors during the present summer. Judge Orr went up on this morning's train from Anderson, which left hero about an hour before the schedule time of arrival for the morning train from Belton. I am quite conteot, however, as I have the pleasant opportunity of spending the day with my friends, Major and Mr*. B , of this place, and hope to reach WalhalU in the cool of the evening. I understand that by special agreement of the Bar, the Conrt will only try the criminal eases in Oconee at this term; perhaps may also transact some equity business, caors axd caoyrixo. Crops everywhere on the road from Greenville to Anderson are el this time suffering for rein, but can wait without very serious damage e few days longer. The drought teems to be now becoming general all over the State, only a few localities e* eepled. I believe a good deal In the moon changes, end as we hod a new moon last Fiiday morning shell look for rnin before the first quarter is out; but " all signs fall in dry weather," ia a formidable connter aaying. The frequent occurrence of summer drought is a strong argument in favor of a larger cultivation of small grain?bar by, wheat, oa's and rye?that make them aalvea always in our climate before the summer dry wealber sets in. The ssmead vantage is also general with the Irish p.ita to erop, which ia meagrely cultivated in thia ?tate. Now is a good time for people to he preparing land for turnipa If corn should make a failure, immense relief eao be afford el by a large turnip erop. It is ssid tliat in the memorable dry year of )84fi tbe stock would have perished but for the large quantity of turnips that were pro dueed that year. Farmers had the sagacity to resort to their use in feeding hogs and eattle and all kinds of stock that year, and it would be profitable every year, wet or dry. Experience has shown that turnip land should be broken up frequently before sowing. Cow pen and stable raanuiee are alwaya good for tbe erop, bot there ia none ?n?i rewiTei ((rraiir ntnent irom gwinn and the bone phoeptatee.

On the 6th in?t? the election look place In old Virginia for Governor and other Skate officers: alao for member* of the L*g Mature and members of Congreae under the new Oonaiiluiion. The result was the ruecere of the Conservative Republican ticket over the despotic Radical Repnldlcan tirket, by foHy thousand majority. The new Con atitutlon waa ratified, and as a separate v?te Waa taken on the rla use disfranchising the generality of the white citlcena of the Slate from voting or Itold'Dg ofhc-, that part of the Constitution vrat defeated.

It was owing to the proper and magnan imooi policy of President Okaxt, that the Virginians had the privilege ot voting down t he d Isfrnnehleing etanee, a* he ordered it to be rul niitt-d separately.
