Tho States ot' ti corgis and Mississippi ap pealed to tho Supreme Court of tho United lj**,,p,*????l(t^^ ; Congress from being executed, alleging that I they were unconstitutional anti destructive to tho rights of these States. These cases were argued by the most eminent counsel, in a thorough, able and effcotivo manner. The Court, ofter mature consideration of the ease, dismissed both bills, adjudging thereby that thc reconstruction measures of Congress are NOT unconstitutional. The Mississippi bill was amended, however, by praying that tho military authorities might bo prevented from wasting the public property of tho State; af ter which, it was continued. Now, that this question is settled, wo trust that those who leaned oa this hope will throw no further obstacles in the way of reconstruc tion ; but on tho contrary, assist in preserv ing thc little of liberty mid property left us. Tho Mineral Resources of Pickens. Dickens District is rich in mineral resour ces. There are numbers of places where a great deal of work had been done before the war commenced. Col. ICuiITMANN expended thousands of dollars in his search for copper, and wo expoet to sec sonic less liberal and perhaps more fortunato adventurer entirely successful. Tho u gold diggins " have been .worked in many places, yielding a much bet tor sum than mere novices in thc business could expect. On Mr. A. M. SMITH'S linc placo, in Cheohec, very fine specimens of gold hav? been found, and it is reported to bo very rich. Some of u our tintura! enemies," from Kow York, havp examined it, with a view of m'iking a purchase, The KEITH place, 'n Chcohee, is also rich in gold Here, and else where In tho District, wo learn that earnest efforts will bo made to remove tho " precious motal" from ra otb or earth. And, upon all those efforts, we trust thc most abundant suc cess will bo realized. The gold mania is also moving our Rnbun friends. An officient company has been formed for working thc mines on Dick's ore?le, on the Hydraulic pinn. Quito a profitable trade has sprung up, in " gold Juts," between Rnbun and Dahlonega-one company alono investing ns mu di ns one hundred thousand dollars in theso " gold lot?." A lady living nenr Wilmington, Del., recently eloped with her husband's hired man, leaving sovon small ohildren "in tho ronr."

The " Now York Times," in comment upon this sentence, says that, leaving out view all other considerations, it certainly f nishos a conclusive argument against thc tmiptslo exeite antagonism between thora in tho South. It says, truly, that the Sun ern blacks aro a very prolific people-at le hnvc been so while in a state of shivery ; in no Southern Slate, and, probably, in district, will they he able to retain polit power, through a numerical majority, a tho tide of emigration is turned South wt as tho " Times'" says it sundy will be, bel many years.

No one. could feel more sensibly than ourselves tho injustico of ibo present military measure, or thc daugeis which threaten us from univer sal negro suffrage, but the urgumont of Gov ernor Perry has only served to impress us the more, with tho conviction that our only hopo | consists in accepting tho terms which they propose, " lest a worse evil befall us.

Agricultural Prospects South. "* Thc New York Commercial," a very ob scrvitig and well conducted paper, publishes upwards of two columns of rep iris, from dif ferent Inanities North and South, ail of which, with bul a few exceptions, unite in represen ting the prospect as being most encouraging, both for cereals and fruits. In tho North western States, the prospect for wheat was nev er better, and tho yield will be very large, ns the area devoted to this cereal has been largo iy increased. The reports from th? Southern States, ac cording lo thc " Commercial," uro encoura ging. Considerable more, territory seems to have been devoted to seed hist fall than is gen erally supposed. A Chattanooga pnper.MMCits that there will bc more wheat ImrvostOu in East Tennessee than during any previous your. Prospects were never belter in Virginia, as well as in Georgia and Mississippi. Though there, is suffering now, the prospect is that the South will have abundance of fond as soon ns thc harvest is gathered. Rut. during thc ma king of these crops, tho people here, will rc quire largo contributions of provisions and hrcadstulfs, to prevent act ual want and starva tion. Let US live in hope. JP*}" The Radical Convention, which met at Jotiesboro', Tennessee, on the 1st inst., tdoptcd, without u dissenting voice, a resolu tion approving the policy of confiscating reb el property to tho extent of liquidating the war debt, and remunerating loyal mon at the South for losses incurred by ibo war. Thus, says and exchange, the deformed, unfinished bantling of Thad.

J. W. BROWN, Clerk. Movements of Mr. Davis. FORTRFSS MONROE, May IL --Mr Davis bas left here, after two years' imprisonment. The leave-taking was touchingly impressive. Robert Ould and the brother of Mr. Davis, from Vicksburg, with Mrs. Davis mid sister and several friends, accompanied him. The countenance of Mr. Davis wns cheerful. Ile received many friends with great cordiality on the boat. His face was pale, and he is very thin and feeble. His bair lina grown quite grey. RICHMOND, May IL-Tho steamer John Sylvester, with Mr. Davis on board, arrived this afternoon, nt half-past 5 o'clock. Long boforo ber arrivai, tho military arrangements had been marlo by Gen. Schofield. A detach ment of infantry from tho 20th regiment was present, and sentinels were posted at intervals enclosing about 200 yards square, of the wharf. Outside of this lino, a large crowd of negroes and a few whites were gathered. The. brows of thc surrounding bills were pretty thickly covered with spectators, Maj, Vance, of Gen. Sohoiield's staff, who was in com mand, and a detachment of Oanoticcrs of the ?th artillery, numbering about fifty, mounted ns n guard for tho carriages. As tho steamer hove in eight, with the national flag Hying, tho most intonso anxiety was exhibited hy the crowd to get closer ; but t hem wits no demon stration-no cheering or hissing. When the stoumcr was made fast, Hon. Jas. Lyons went on board, and after u fooling meeting with Mr. Davis, brought Mrs. Davis nshoro, and con ducted her to a enrringe, followed by thc two sorvants who attended her. After ti few min utes, Mr. Davis carno over tho gang plank, accompanied by Con.. Burton and Dr. Cooper, ile looked very much changed from what tho citizens of Riobmond remember bim to have hcon, looking much older and rathor haggard and feoblo. A full groy board contributed much to tho ohango. Ileworoa heavy black overcoat, and came ashore with a very firm stop. Tho party immediately got into carri- ' ages, and surrounded by tho mounted guard, drove rapidly by a side streot up towards the .Spotswood lintel, thus disappointing the large crowd which hud gathered ou Main street to sci! Mr. Davis. On tho trip up, Mr. Davis was quite cheer ful, and as bc had no guard, walked freely about till boat, conversing with tho passen gers, who were all anxious to speak to him. ile said l'lt tl a about his imprisonment, but ?poko in terms of the wannest affection of ex- J President Pierce, who visited him on Thurs day last. Ile said there was no man living for whom he entertained a higher regard. RICHMOND, May 13.-The United States Court was pucked this morning. A military guard was stationed around it, and a strong police boee inside. About twenty ladies were among the spectators ; ?Iso fifty negroes. At I I o'clock, Mr. Davis was brought in mid took a seat next to tito prisoner's box, with Cen. Burton und tho Marshal. A servant accompanied him. Mr. Davis, pitting by uti open window, remarked ? " Lt ia a little cold, isn't it V And he was then removed to n seat near his counsel, in fl'Olst of thc Judges. Curt .-n's return to thc writ was road, and the Judge complimented Burton in obeying the laws, and relieved him of the custody of Mr. Davis; and the Marshal immediately served on bim a bench warrant to answer, lit Nor? folk, an indictment. O'Oonor spoke of Davis' long imprisonment and feeble health, and asked that, bc be bailed. There being no Op position upon the part of ibo prosecution, who fixed Ihn hail at Sl?U,UUO, tho Judge an nounced his roudincss to accept the bail, sta- ' ting, al the same time, thal tho responsibility \ of thc delay in bringing Mr. Davis' cast* into Court rested Upon tho Government, and not upon thc. District Attorney, Ilonisosnid half the bail should bo givt ;, hy persons residing in tho Slate of Virginia. Thc sureties then came forward, Horace (?recle}' being among the first, followed by Schell, of New York, Jackman, of Philadelphia, and others. A number ?d' gentlemen residing in Virginia offered I huir name? ns bail. Davis was con gratulated by several friends, but there was no demonstra lion or noise Of any kind. After giving bail to appear nt the November terni of Court, ho wustakeu in ?coach to thc Spots wood Hoted. As Mt*. Davis came ont of the court house and entend the carriage, after his release, there was a loud cheer fiann the crowd of ne groes outside, and about fifty ol'them gathered around tho coach ?ml sinai!; hands willi him. Ile has remained quietly in his hotel all the evening. Mr. 1). will viait Canada in a day or two, to see his children. The first mimes sighed to the bail bund, after that of Jefferson Davis, is Horace Greeley and Augustus Schell, of New York, and Cen. Jackman, of Phila delphia. A little lower down, is the name of j .!..!,;; Minor Bottas. Tho Virginia residents who signed were prominent citizens of Jlioh inoml-inert-hauls and Inwyei s. l here seems lt) be a general feeling of relic f among the cit izens and tho authorities that Mr. Davis is ut last nt liberty. RICHMOND, May 13.-Jefferson Davis and family went on board the steamer Niagara to night, nt 10 o'clock, She sails for New York to-morrow morning. Ile goes thence tu Cun tido.
