Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch

tCOrrtSpOnuCpCtOib tue l'lhlatS'I.l III:
SOLITUDE, June 4, 1877.
After wet spell almost unprecedented in
this latitude we are having great dought.
The mountains have been on fire for two or
three weeks, devastating timber and vege-
tation to an alarming extent.
James NJ. Wood, one OF our most worthy
and elderly citizens, died on Friday, in the
ninetieth year OF his age, and was buried
on Saturday ut the Windy Cove church.
The Motictt bell-punchi is regarded in this
community as-a very small affair by gentle
men who like their toddy in quiet way. 1
think il the Legislature wished to tax the
consumer, let all persons who may wish to
drink whiskey pay q tax and take out a
license for that privilege. Such, learn, is
the:case I'M the State OF Oregon, and seems
to work well, according to accounts.
We bad quite an interesting case in our
County Court last months before his Honor
Judge Myers, as regards an Aulerican-born
citizen OF African descent who had taken to
himself two virgins of similar import as
himself. The Legislature passed law legal
zing negroe marriages, where they had
been cohabiting US man and wife, and legal
zing the issues. if any; but the court de-
cided that the law was unconstitutional,
null. and void. .a r.
The various watering-places IN this coun-
tv are making strenuous efforts to be pre-
pared 10 keep all that may wish to Visit the
mountains in tirst-class style. "'''
The prevailing sentiment politically is to
send member to the Legislature in favor OF
repudiating the debt OF Virginia.

correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.
JUNE 2, 1877.
The stand Of corn was perhaps never
worse. This is due to the cold weather,
which killed deal in the sprout and held
the balance as prey for the rats. Our wheat
is simply magnificent The great question
is, What will we do with it! Oats are
much better than they wero last year-may
be an average crop. !. 1872 '.s..' .' '.t
Z Our greatest failure has been in sweet-po-
tato plants. Not one bed in twenty is asuc-
cess, and great many beds have not plant
in them. Speaking of'potatoes calls to mind
an editorial in recent Dispatch, which,
among other things, inform9 US that north
ern professor is the. yearly recipient OF q
barrel OF Hanover potatoes from the secre-
tary of,the Southern Fertllizing Company.
| have no wish to interrupt this annual
courtesy, but for the benefit OF all who
love this most esculent tl1ber I will say that
We peninsula people would not let Hanover
yellow potatoes come to our tables. We re-
gard them as little superior to rutabagas,
Cushaw pumpkins. Our table-potatoes are
the Tolman "a species of the old white
spanish), the Southern Queen, and the Hay
man. The Hanoyer may be substitute for
bread, but the Tolman, Southern Queen,
and Haynian are a substitute for pastry. 1

Courier prints the following as the result Of
an extended inquiry concerning the crop
prospects in this State: - -. ..,as.:.
In the eastern counties-the best cotton
district in the State-the prospects are bad,
and what cotton is up looks badly and
shows no Improvement in growth. In the
upper counties cotton is singularly affected,
and want of rain is seriously felt. In the
middle counties week ago there was no
stand. OF cotton on the river lands, and q
limit OF, cotton was up. On the upland the
stand is, about the same as in sections, pre-
viously mentioned: Lower, counties make
better reports. The dryness Of the weather
has been favorable for work, and has kept
the cotton crop out Of the grass. With
everything favorable from this time. and
with late frost, a fair crop Of cotton may
be made, but under no other circumstances
can full crop be expected, a'a,t@3
