MORE ABOUT MR. DAVIS.-A correspon

from Richmond, under date of May liOth, say?
that the manacles were removed from Mr.
Davis on Sunday afternoon.
Daring thc days ho was ironed Davis stead
fastly refused food, eating nothing* each day
bus a bit of bread, and yesterday Dr. Cravens
said plainly to the authorities that unless he
was relieved from tho ?hackles, the prisoner
would not live two days. In consequence of
this representation the irons were removed
late yesterday afternoon, and then Dr. Cra
vens is reported to have further expressed the
opinion that unless Davis was allowed more
fresh air than lie could get by cous'ant con
finement, in bis cell, he would nor ??vc ten
days, lie will livo the ten days, however,
for tomorrow he emerges from the caa<nnates

' The following 'article of the surrender is
j very clear.
Each officer and man will bo allowed to
return to their bomes,"not to be disturbed by
United States authority so long as they observe
their parole and the laws in force where they

We trust that the authorities of the United

At a pie-nic thc other djy, wo hcat/d tome gen
tle m cu talking about the grape, and its treatment
and cultivation. Th?-y discussed, with grcat va
riety of opinion, thc propriety and best mode of J
Bholterir.g the grape from o^ccStdye moisture. We
know very little about this matter, but the con
versation recalled to our mind a vh-it we once
paid to a famous vinoyard in the Saxon Switzer
land. This WhS thc vineyard of thc baron Von
J Alvenslohco, lying Qn the banks of tho Elbe, io
: tho-Eohcuiian Mountains; it was Email in extent;
but noted throughout Saxony for its magnificent
grapes and superior white wine. "Wo will givo

; and when wc arrived at the A ineyaid, ?ive o'clock
j tu the after n nen, wc found nevon leen peasant wo

j lunches of grapes in hn<jK, These hags wsro
j made of a hemp tittling, elroiigcr, and v, i!*h liner
meshes, than eur mosquito uct'.ing. The number
of bunches thus encased amounted towboat half
on thc vif.es, or stocks, as the..-aro there called.

A PROVISIONAL Govi RNOR KORSOUTII G.\r.
OLiKA.-The question of tho'appointment of
a Provisional Governor for Souili Carolina is
being agitated in Charleston. The Courier,
says ;
It would seem that the time has arrived
when the citizens of thia State should adopt
m; asures for the appointment of a Provision
al Governor. With such an appointment will
come tho ^radiifil re-dp -liing ol ibo railroads
and obstin?is of trade, the establishment of
postal routes, an l re-orgatiization of the Uni
red States Courts and lina! return ol'civil au
? thority
To accomplish those objecta lhere should
be a united and harmonious action on thc
part of the people. Tue military authorities,
we believe, are ready and willing to give all
aid and ostdata/lCO iu tbiiir power fur Hie fur
"wardinij'of such a movement, as will ho seen
nt once by the report pf a meeting held st
Summerville on Wednesday last.
