Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.
affairs in Lynchburg.
On the question of Secession all seemed united and of one mind, and in the quiet and orderly manner in which affairs were conducted, the observer could not fail to see that the voters were determined to sever the last link that bound our beloved old Commonwealth to the old Union, and to let sphynxeyed Yankeedom and the whole accursed tribe of Northern vandals know that Virginians know their rights and dare assert them at the polls, and defend them on the battle-field. The home of Washington can never be subjugated! These seven words should be emblazoned on every Southern banner, and treasured in the mind of every Virginia soldier, and made the watch word and battle-cry when about to engage the enemy.
The vote polled yesterday, which was sent you by telegraph, was a full one, when we take in consideration the absence of four military companies on duty. The Campbell county companies encamped here voted in the city, which helped to make up for our absent voters. The voting at the camps was, of course, unanimous for secession.
From every section of this region of country, cropping prospects are reported to be fine, with every indication of an abundant harvest. We shall also have fruit in abundance. Our market is now well supplied with every variety of early vegetables. Farmers are pitching large crops of corn, with a diminution of the tobacco crops. The receipts of tobacco at present are moderate in comparison with the same season for last year. Lugs may be quoted from $1.75 to $4.50; leaf, from $3 to $12.50; prime, $17 to $20.
The ‘"Mountain Boomers,"’ Captain Harvey French, from Giles county, arrived this morning on the 4½ o'clock train.
