Salt. --We have before us a correspondence for which we have not room, between Mr. L. E. Harvie, President of the Danville Railroad, and Mr. F. J. Sampson, freight agent of the road, and Messrs. Stuart, Buchanan & Co., manufacturers of salt at the Preston and King's Salt Works in Washington and Smyth counties. Mr. Harvie, from a desire to afford every facility to the public to procure salt from these works, arranged with the Virginia and Tennessee and South Side Railroads to send cars from his road over their's, to and fro, to convey salt. One train, under this arrangement, had brought a load to Richmond. Mr. Harvie then offered to any other person in Richmond the use of the cars for this purpose. No one accepting the offer, he sent off the cars, accompanied by Mr. Sampson, with a check and letter of credit to the company of salt manufacturers, for the purpose of procuring a supply of salt for Amelia and adjoining counties.

I never witnessed greater enthusiasm than that which followed. The air was rent with cheers for Johnston, Beauregard, Smith, Longstreet, &c. There was music from four bands; and the whole conspired to make one feel "who would not be a soldier." It will take several weeks of hard picketing to wear away the impression produced. There were similar scenes at other points. So much for to-day's fight. I believe, however, that private Smith has concluded that he was only mistaken in the day, and that next Tuesday is the appointed time for the great battle.
