The Up Country Mails
   We received yesterday the back mail from Spartanburg, Greenville, Anderson, Abbeville and the other districts depending mainly for their mail connections on the Greenville & Columbia Railroad. By this source we also get information that a heavy mail, including the accumulations of seventeen days had reached that section from Columbia. We do not know the means or route by which the Post office authorities have arranged to forward these delayed mails either way; but inasmuch as we hear that the repairs on the Greenville Railroad are still far from completion, we trust that the temporary arrangement by which the mails of yesterday reached us, will be continued, so as to let us have at least a semi-weekly connection between the upper and lower sections of the State.
