MOUNT PLEAsANr-The Congregational Chufch
at this place was olened for divine service on
last Sunday. During the larger portion OF the war
that building was used as military hospital, and
after the evacuation Of Charleston 1t was con-
verted into a school-house for colored children
The corporation after several attempts, succeeded
In recovering the building from the Ereedmans
Bureau about twelve months since AT that time
they placed the Church under The pastoral charge
of reverend gentleman. hut ewing to thoir ina-
bility to raise the SUM Of money the repairs re
quired, he has not Yet entered upon hs work.
After consultation ii was determined to reopen
the church in its present condition. with such con-
veniencies for sitting, as could be furnished by
the community. They were more desirous Ia do
this inasmuch as the had the opportunity oi avail
ing themselves of the services OF the Rev. DA,;tEI
DUPRE, one of the patriarclis of Haddrells Point
in times agone, when canoes and h0rse-boats per
formeo the Office Of transportation, nov accom-
pbshed by Mr. McCoRNIcK's clccaut steamer.
Raspected and beloved BY the whole community
bis coming was deemed raost favorable to resum-
ing service in the long closed temple and he con
sented most cheerfully to re-coEsecraie it to the
service of Almighty God.
MIR. DuPRE preached two impressive sermons
on Sunday to numerous and attentive congresa
t;ons. At the close OF the services he congratu
lated the community on the roopemnS OF this
house of worship, and e>llorted thsm to Keep II
open.
Having begun the good work, the officers OF the
church are in the mood to continue it, and the
community are prepared to second their efforts
Ifneed be, we are assured our own community
viii render some assistance to that Impoverished
society.

THE WEATHER AND CROPs.-During all Of
the past week, we have been favored with
wsrm sunshine end real growing weather
The planters during that time, instead of Wis
iting town with long faces, and causing a
corresponding elongation of frontal physique
on the part o: our merchants, by complaining
o! bad weather, worse stands, delinquenc-
les of freedmen, &c, have remained at home,
like sensible men, as they are, combating the
terrible march of crab grass and the sponta-
neous springing- of evil weeds which grow
apace, and blight the farmers faIrest pros
poets. In another local. we have spoken of
crop prospects, &C.. and all we have now to
do ID to state that what we have stated in
that article is more than confirmed by grape
vine telegraph 1.-THE very latest of which we
could avail ourselves by the last stroke of
the Great Electrician). just now the crops
are doing very well, and if we can only have
favorable seasons from now until lst July,
we shall be "out of the woods" as to the
crops. "Ldus Deol"

Rag We met on the street few days since,
our afIable felcw.townsman, Col S. $. CAL
HooN, States Attorney for this Judicial Dis
trct, ana on expressing our surprise at see
ing hiw back at home so soon after the
opening of the Spring Term of fazoo Cir
cult Court, he Informed US tn 1t, owing to the
pressure of the times and the great necessity
of the farmers being at home at work in their
fields, Judge Campbell, like sensible and
good man, had adjourned the Court, pass
ing the docket over until the Fall Term.
We commend Judge Campbell for this con-
siderate and discreet act, for he has certainly
greatly benefit tied the farmers of Yazoo, and
shown proper appreciation Of the DISTRESS
ed condition of the country.
Notwithstanding the late Spring, the pro-
tracted wet weather, and the damaging
storms of two weeks ago, there is decidedly
a better prospect for good crops than there
was this time last year. We have conversed
freely with farmers from all parts of this and
from the adjoining counties, and they all re-
port the prospect for good crops much more
flattering than at same period last year.
There is some complaint that the late rains
have damaged the stands of cotton, but all
agree that the freedmen are working better
and more contentedly than they did last
year. We are glad to learn, also, that
much greater breadth of land has been
planted in corn this than last season, and
If General Green presses the planters too
closely, and they are compelled to surrender
portion Of their crops, it shall be King
Gator They nov want hog and homi-
ed in our hearing the other day, they in
tend to remove their smokehouses from st.
Louis and Cincinnati to their own farms"
What We mostly desire now is, that the
North will keep her Wilson's aud Kelleys at
home, aud the freedmen will be able to reg.
lister without being demoraIized and neglect
ing the corn and cotton. So mote it be.

REGISTRATION.

We inadvertently omitted to mention in
our last, that registration commenced in this
county at jacksonville, on Monday, 9th ult.
About sixteen whites and forty negroes reg
istered at that precinct. The board of Reg
istras opened the "polls" at Madison Sta
ton on Monday last, where there was some
what more equal commingling of "black
spirits and white" the Antique being only a
little over two to one against Caucssiana-
the registry showing forty whites and one
hundred and five of the sable hue. A friend
informs us that there is but little excitement
manifested by the "cullud population on
sccount of their new relations with Uncle
Samuel" They come up, take the required
"sware,' wait patiently until their names are
written in the register by one of the board,
then make their = mark, (what comment
ary upon the sacred privilege of the ballot y
and " fall back in good order. The que.
ton has been propoundsd TO some of them,
Who do you intend to vote for ? and the
reply was, "'Goin' to vote for land" From
this IL would seem that some " Radical pup"
and ineendiary has impressed it upon their
minds that if they elect Radicals to Con
gress, they will pass laws to divide the lands
among the freedmen. Some few refuse to
register, believing there is some trick in it,
By notice in another column it will be
