FORTRESS MONROE, May 8-The
most gratifying reports have already
been received from the counties and
Registration Districts of this State
South of the James River, which fur
nish conclusive evidence of the con-
ciliatery manner in which the inhab-
itants are receiving the registering
officers, and assisting them in the
preliminary measures of the Recon
struction Bill. This feeling among
the people is general, and even those
disqualified by the bill have, in many
cases, preferred their assistance, and
impressed upon their neighbors the
actual necessity and policy of non-in-
reference with the registration of the
duly qualified voters. The utmost
good feeling exists towards the COL
ored people, now that the question of
their suffrage is no long unsettled
The education of the negro and
their moral and social elevation is
now acknowledged to be necessarily
incumbent, upon all the people, and
is the only proper and judieious
means which will advance the inter-
.ests of both classes and promote the
prosperity of the State. EssfHIs8 -

of interest here. Most of the time of
the court was taken up by lengthy

Frazier, the party impeached, from
sitting on the trial. The argument,
which involves many nice legal points,
will be continued tomorrow. Able

mr. Davis in Court-His Release.

nAEs OeVlb IN OoorS-h1s kSeleeoes
We have read with much interest
the detailed report of the appearance
of Mr., Davis in the United States
Court at Richmond, last Monday,
and the interesting scenes which took
place during the preliminary hearing,
and those which followed the an
nouncement of his discharge. The
entrance of Horace Greeley, precisely
at II o'clock, created great excite
ment among the large audience who
filed the court room. The. entrance
of the distinguished prisoner, escort
ed by General Burton, and his being
formally turned over to the civil au-
thorities, in response to the writ of
habeas corpus, is said to have been a
very affecting scene. The deafening
applause which rang through the
court room when Judge Underwood
gave the order: "The Marshal will
discharge the prisoner" created such
q furore that, anaid the huzzas and the
waving of hats, the Assistant Marshal
had to exclaim, in q loud voice, "The
court will have to be cleared unless
order is preserved" After his re-
lease, Mr.. Davis received many con-
gratulations and took his departure,
the court adjourning until the next
day. : ~ 81
Thus ended the two years impri-
sonment of the first and chosen rep
resentative of the people who COM
posed the late Confederacy. 1t is m
event that will give Joy and gladness
to the whole of that people. and is
an act that will do moro to restore
friendly feelings between the people
of both sections, and will be more
effectual in effacing the mischievous
effects of the harangues of itinerant
party demagogues, than any that
could have been done by the Govern
ment. We have no doubt but this
act of clemency-late though it
comes-will be a powerful instru-
mentality in restoring mutual good
feelings between the whole people of
the United States.
