It is said that the King of Greece will not ac? cept the Russian religion on his marriage with the Grand Duchess OLGA, because his father, the ?pg of Denmark, docs not desire it.

The London Dairy News states that the accumu ' lotion of money in all chief cities of Euro; e con? tinues ahn oat without interruption. The public are boarding the Borne as a year ago, with this difference, that instead of locking ap bank notes in private safes they deposit their fonds with bankers. Hence there is moro money avail tble for discount purposes, and the rate, instead of being 10 per cent., is barely 2. The registration in Loudon county, Ya., is now complete, and sams ap as follows : Whites, 2796; colored, 292. There were about 5500 colored peo? ple in that county in 1860, of whom about 500 left daring the war. Their registration, therefore, is supposed to be full. There were about 6000 whites, and this would make their voting population equal to 8300, of whom not exceeding 200 ore disfran r chised, and-it would seem that about 200 qualified voters have failed to register. Paper money is atlast invading Toxas. That State, which, daring and since the rebellion, en? joyed a coin - currency, is about to exchange it for i greenbacks and fractional currency. On tho IJ Texas Central Railroad paper money has began to J i be received f:r passage and freights.

L The African Repository, organ of the American I ? Colonization Society, speaks of what hos been I done within a few years for the moral renovation 11 of the African continent, as follows : "On the g Western coast alone, within tho last fifty years, 11 some two hundred Christian churches have been I v organized, and upward of fifty thousand hopeful I c converts have been gathered into tlroso churches. 11 Two hundred schools, several seminaries, and a t 00U9ge at Monrovia, ore in operation, and not leas than twenty thousand native youths are receiving I a Christian training in those institutions at the I( present day. Thirty different dialects have boen ' studied out and reduced to writing, into most of 11 which large portions of sacred Scripture, as well 11 as other religious books, have been translated, I( printed, and circulated among the people. 11 The Manchester (N.

The mills are I running at a loss in Lowell, Lawrence,.and most of I * the other manufacturing towns in Massachusetts and throughout New, England. The Manchester 0 mills and print works have goods on hand unsold of the value of upward of two millions of dollars. ? The same slate of things exists with the Amos- j a keog Company. The Stork mills ore said to have 0 sank 140,000 Tri thin a few months for the same I *! reasons. The shoe business at Lynn, Haverhill, Randolph, and other large shoe-manufacturing towns in New England is said to be in a very low I C condition as compared with what it has been in c former years, when orders for shoes came in thick a and fast from the South and West. These difficul- tl ties are attributed to the chaotic state of the polit- ? jeal affair? of the nation.

But th must have overlooked the fact that whilo most ii ese libraries are mainly frequented by perso belonging to the comfortable classes and enjoyi leisure to read during the week, and are thus a to be comparatively deserted on Sunday, other braries of a more popular kind, such as tho "Pc pie's Libraries" in Paris aro specially crowded i that day, the only one on which tho working class aave plenty of time for reading.

Tho Danes and al >ther sensible people have been at a loss to knov why s uch a guarantee should be necessary. Don nark is too weak, as oil tho world knows, to pro robe unnecessarily tho enmity and interference >f Prussia by doing injustice to Gormans residing vithin ber borders. Tho conduct of Prussia is, ifter all, not difficult to explain. It is necessary or her io find a reason for giving up what sho un ustly holds, and it is desirable to obtain, if pos? sible, a pretext fer future meddling. Tho reason ind the pretext aro both involved in tho guaran? tee. Denmark, wo learn from ono of our latest :ablo announcements, is not unwilling to give a suitable guarantee, but demands information as to the na turo of the guarantee required.

HR. STEPHENS AND Mit, SWINTON. \ - The Augusta Constitutionalist of Saturday contains n scurrillous attack on Mr. WILLIAM SWINTON, thc correspondent of the New York Times, alleging that in his recent letter on the Hon. ALEXANDER II. STEPHENS, he was guilty of a gross breach of confidence, in repeating and publishing what Mr. STEPHENS had told him "under the rose;" and moreover, that many of the statements contained in the said letter are not such as Mr. SWINTON heard them from Mr. STEPHENS, but perversions of fact, or the creations of his fancy. In the elegant phrase of tho Constitutionalist, ho has proved himself both "a Taul Pry find a Munchausen." This is a most unwarranted and unprovoked at? tack ou tho character of a gentleman. Has tho Constitutionalist the keeping of Mr. STE? PHEN'S views? Does Mr. S. invariably consult that sheet before he utters an opinion on men or measures? How does thc Constitutionalist know that Mr. SWINTON is guilty of a breach of confidence, or that his statements are in? correct? Has Mr. STEPHENS so informed it? Wc presume not ; for if he had, such fact would have been blazoned in huge capitals. Now it strikes us that Mr. STEPHENS is the only man who has a right to,object, and until he does so, it is mere impertinence in any one else to speak of the matter, as tho Augusta paper has done. Wc saw mnch pf Mr. S. while he was in this city, and heard him speak freely of his visit to Liberty Hall. He was very careful in draw? ing the distinction, even in the familiarity of private conversation between topics, which, he said Mr. STEPHENS told him in confidence, and such as were given him with no such restric? tion. On the latter Mr. SWINTON conversed freely, on the former he preserved a profound silenoc. Mr. SWINTON*! manners, education, and an? tecedents, all arc those of a gentleman. He has had thc entree everywhere into the best circles, and this is the first time, as far as wo know, that so serious n charge has been brought against him. A PLENTEOUS HARVEST. Throughout the whole of the United States, East and West, North and South, reports of the crops are extremely favorable. In tho West and the South the yield of wheat has far exceeded the most sanguine expectations. In the southwest they sowed extensively,, and the result has been bread in superabundance, with a large surplus for market. Tho South never cultivated wheat so largely before, nnd never has the yield been-so abundant. Thc lessons taught by thc war have inculcated wisdom, and impressed upon thc minds of all the neces- I Bity of producing at least a regular and abun? dant supply of bread. Sections of country which heretofore were exclusively devoted to thc cultivation of cotton, have planted largely of corn, and wo hope their example will be I \ everywhere imitated. True, we have heard of rust and weevil and rain, of tho army worm, the cotton worm, and thc internal revenue "tags"-but after all de- j j due ti ms arc made, wc believe we are warrant- ; ed by facts in stating that the prospect for a fair general crop in the South this year is on tho whole good, while thc farmers of the West have gathered such wealth of grain as their storehouses had never known before. % , The wheat crop is estimated ht :100,000,000 1 bushels, allowing a large surplus for exporta? tion. Oats, rye, and barley also have been gathered in unusual quantities. To a kind ' and gracious Providence, who has vouchsafed such blessings to our distracted country, wo cannot be sufficiently grateful. How much corn may be counted on as the yield of thc present crop, it is impossible to surmise. From our Western exchanges we gather that the breadth of land planted in this cereal is far beyond preceding years. Much of it, it is true, was planted late, and great damage was sustained by rains, breaking of levees, etc., but we do not know that in thc ? great aggregate these drawbacks will appear 1 as appreciable factors. The corn crop is now made, and from information wc have from various sections, wc are glad to be able to say that the yield promises well. The colton crop, notwithstanding thc rains 1 and the worm, is at present in n promising condition. If the weather is favorable during i the present month,'and thc fall a lute one, wc ' may look for an abundant crop in proportion to the quantity planted. In our own State the wheat crop has be?n abundant, far beyond preceding years. Corn | promises to bc a much belter crop than last year; and cotton, particularly in the middle and upper districts, is as fine as could be ex? pected. Wc know there will be many who ? will not accept this as a correct stafenient, who will grumble and growl, and talk of '-half crops" and "quarter crops," and speak dis? paragingly of "newspaper pieces.'* Rut our opportunities for information ure superior to I those within the reach of any one pluutcr. 1 Wo have letters daily from every part of tho j 3tate, and from adjoining States, and it is j, upon a careful consideration of these that wc bave arrived at the opinion given above. ( These accounts cannot but be cheering to he heart of every citizen; for whatever his I pursuit, he must needs be interested in what ^oes to contribute to thc general wclfurc of the jountry, and more particularly as coming at i )nce home to his own exchequer, he cannot bc ] ndiffcrent to the prospect of a fall in thc price ' )f providions. i Hut our business men have a still greater . ?lake in thc truth or falsity of these specula- I. ions. The business of our State is based ex- i .lusively upon her agricultural products. I, Heretofore wo had a large banking capital, as 1 ivell as a considerable surplus of money in pri- I i rate hands, together with a superabundance of . daves, of horses, mules, callie, of agricultural mplcmenls, and of a thousand other represen- i atives of value, the accumulation of a century J >f toil and thrift. The war has stripped us of 1 ?early all of these. Thc failure of a crop then, 1 n business circles, caused inconvenience, a stringency in thc money market, perhaps, and, n thc agricultural districts, herc and there, icarcity, and destitution to a limited extent, lut thc failure of a crop now will bc a calamity, ome of the effects of which were experienced r luring the present year. Two such years sue- . essively would inevitably result in the bank- t uptcy of thc entire South, if not of thc whole " oun try. How grateful then ought wc to be at the j >ro.cpect of ?i good crop, and thc impetus it mist give lo business in ull its varied raraifica ious. The gritin and thc colton will freight our railroad cars and our ships, anti give employ ucnt lo hundreds and thousands who have suf? fered for many months because of the stagna ion of business, anil thc impossibility of ob ?aining work of any kimi. Farmers, planters md laborers, who for months have been suffer? ing from a chronic state of iinpeeuniosity, will once moro have the pleasure of gratifying their "itching palms"' with tito handling of green? backs. They will be ?Me to pay their debts and procure supplies much needed. Money will come in circulation. Goods will be wanted and merchants have a busy time. We will not say that there will bc a season of prosperity, such as wc had before thc war. The country is too much exhausted to recover by one tolerable crop. Wc only predict a great improvement of tho existing state of things. Our farmers, wc think, will bc better off next spriug than (hey were at thc com? mencement of rite present j ear. If our people will bc energetic, industrious ami frugal, they have much to make them hopeful of a better iiture, notwithstanding ail thc accumulated eight of calamity Ibal has befallen them du l ? thc past seven years. Our resources are IL haustible, and with a stout heart, a detcr mi 1 purpose, and a fixed trust in God, we may t hope to "work out"' the salvation of | the SIRO and of her people. THE ELECTION IN TENNESSEE. While wc cannot rejoice in the result of thc recent elections in Tennessee, believing that unfair means were used to accomplish it, wo ai'C glad to learn that thc crisis passed off without any of thc numerous troubles and difficulties that were so confidently expected. A special telegram to thc Herald, dated Nash? ville, August 1, 7 P. M., says : Tho polls havo closed upon ono of tho most pcaceablo elections over held in this city, and no reports havo been recoived aa jot whicti indicate trouble elsewhere, though it iadifflcult to conceive that tho election has passed off in the interior wholly without disturbance. In Nashville Lucio wau a general suspension of business, and people kept their houses ; so that tho snoots, oxcept in the immediate vicinity of tho polls, wero almost as deserted and quiet as on Sunday. Thero was no intoxication and no disorder. A few arrests wero mado for violation of tho ordinance as to carrying concealed weapons, and a couple of col? ored men woro apprehended for attempting tho Democratic strategy of voting moro than once. Evon tho disfranchised wero, as a general thing, in good humor, and seemed to mako a jest of tho greater privileges of the negro. Nor was this good ordoi due to martial effect, for General Dun? can had disposed tho military most unobstrusive ly. A few cavalry'mon wero "picketed in tho rear ot tho City Hall, a detachment of infantry had stacked anns at tho Capitol, and a horseman quietly watched each poll from a distance ; other? wise the military were out of sight. ********* Tho challengers of tho Conservatives acted im? partially in their duties. They did not seem to manifest any improper desire to impede tue voting. Whcro thoy know tho votct to bo qualified they even assisted him to a prompt deposit, of his bal? lot. Whou it was necessary to question tho voter, the woll-known ignoranco of tho African as to dates and time v.-as illustrated-all wore over twenty-one y?ars jf ai*o according to what thoy woro told by their parents and relatives; but not on? in a dozen could name his birthday. The registration list of colored votors is also re? markable tor the long array of distinguished names. Toe host families of Tennessee, tho most renowned statesmen and soldiers of tho Union sinco its incipioucy, ami evon tho {ilorious cogn ; mens of Boman history, bid la r to Do perpetuated, in name at least, among the futuro citizens of Tonnessee.
