RUSSELL AND THE AME R1cAN QUESTION.
From the London Times, Oct Is.
We have to settle affairs with America to
our mutual satisfaction, and Lord Russell has
his hand In 1t. That Is the main, perhaps the
only reason, Why he should be Premier
Viewed in this Light, he is necessity. Like
medicine, the nation must take him, even
though 1t makes wry face- He knows all
the ms and outs. He has style suited to the
work, and to his antagonists. He has repu-
tation which would be lost either by base
compliance or BY needless war Our gene
raj ground in the politics of the world has
been cleared lately, and nc cannot pretend to
soy that our hands are too full, and that We
must purchase peace by submission. Nor Is
there any postponement. Now or never Is
the time. In the tace Of such an emergency
thore was no possible choice but to see
the Government minded over by the
simple law Of Official succession to the
man next In power and actually at the
wheel. We may, indeed, be thankful that
the writer Of these volumlnoua letters is 10 q
position to carry ont their reasoning to Its
results. But word to university gentlemen
and patriots or saints indulgiug in lofty aspi-

Is It the prize of NIL prizes, the summit Of
earthly ambition, TO be- engaged in daily tus-
sic of arguments, preccdcnts and authorities

be, of millions, and the honor, not to say
safety, Of this whole empire? But let thnt

with scarcely choice in the matter, has en-
EaEed man Of the longest experience and

Gov. Perryss Message.

New YORK, Sept. 20.-The steamer Quaker
City has arrived from Charleston, 10th.
The Courier contains Gov. Perry's message
to the State Convention. He acknowledges
the death of slavery, and cOunsels the wise,
Just and humane treatment of freedmen, by
which they may become as strongly attached
to the whites as while they were slaves. Legis-
lation will be necessary to regulate agreements
between whites and freedmen.
The Governor suggests changes in the State
Constitution making it more popular and re-
publican in form. It is the reproach of South
Carolina that it is less 90 than any other State
in the Union.
He is against extending the suffrage to the
freedmen in their present Ignorant and degra-
ded condition. he contends that this is the
white mans government, and the white mans
only; that the Supreme Court has decided ne
gres are not citizens, and that each State has
the unquestioned right to decide for herself
who shall vote, and he suggests the election
of Governor, members of Congress, Legisla-
ture and Presidential electors by the people
and that the Legislature should be elected and
convened in season to order an election for
Congressman before the first Monday in De-
cember..
The future he says will be bright and glo-
rious. As long as civilization continues this
great republic will flourish and increase in
numbers, wealth and grandeur. In less than
ten years we shall realize in the loss of slavery
blessing in disguise to ourselves and chill
tablishment of civil law and courts and the
withdrawal of negro troops from the interior to
garrisons ON the coast The presence Of white
troops win be necessary for some time. to
enforce the relative laws Of freedmen and en-

NY DEAR SIR: Your favor of the 22d inst.
has Just cometo hand. In reply would state
that am in favor of the principles which ap-
pear, thus faE, to have governed President
johnson with regard to the Southern States;
that is, to allow these States to decide who
shall and who shall not be entitled to the right
of suffrage. In other words, am in favor Of
returning at the earliest practicable moment to
a government of civil law.
I believe that the true interest of the coun-
try demands D more economical administration
of affairs, in order to reduce the national debt,
in the substitution Of civil for military courts
and more careful observance of constitution
al rights o. States and individuals. If these
views are such as will be endorsed by your
convention, and if the convention should NOM
mate me for Secretary of State. I shall accept
the nomination. / am now at great distance
from the scene of action. The only mail by
which this communication can reach you be.
fore the assembling of the convention leaves
here within few hours.
With this brief statement leave the matter
in your hands, knowing your friendly feelings
towards me and being assured that you viii be
governed, 10 some degree at least by these feel
ings. If the convention do not adopt the plat
form you anticipate, I trust you viii not press

ST.. LoUs, Sept. 14.-Judge King, of the
Ray Circuit Court after hearing elaborate ar
euments for and against, has decided that the
test oath of the new constitution is -retroepec.
tive in action, &c post fdcto. and unconstitu-

same question Is being argued before Judge
Primm, Of the st. Louis Criminal Court, and

Samuel T. Glover, prominent lawyer and
active Claybank politician Of fhis city, has no
titled the Circuit Attorney that he still contin.

oath that he does not intend to take it; and
says he gives this notification SO that the At

ST.. PAUL, MIMI, Sept. 10.
Whatever injury the crops may have sus-
tanned in other States, the extent Of which has
doubtless been exaggerated, I can assure you
that throughout the State of Minnesota the
harvest hos been most abundant. The wheat
crop is unusually large, apd it may safely be
said that the aggregate yield is fully double
that of last year. In some counties the aver
age is enormous, and viii exceed thirty bushels
to the acre, while the general average of the
entire State viii not fall short of rs bushels
per acre. This may seem Incredible, but am
confident that time and facts will prove this
statement to be in no wise exaggerated. There
is no State where the soil and climate are so
well adapted to the raising of wheat as this; it
is surely destined to become very pOpul0us
State, and the chief granary of the West.
There is, besides, large amount of old
wheat stil on hand, which, on account of low
water, high freights, and scarcity Of labor, has
not been heretofore sent to market. But, as
we have now most excellent stage of naviga-
ton, it win serve to swell the shipments this
fall
The new crop has not yet begun to move.
but in about ten days every means of transpor.
tati0n Will be taxed to its utmost. It win be
proved this year that as an agricultural State.
Minnesota has no superior, either in the East Or
West.
I think you win be surprised at the immense
volume of grain that will soon be poured into
your market from this region. You will more
over, find it to be all No. L
