GOVERNOR KEMPER ON GENERAL GRANT
AND THB THIRD TBEM.-This mornings Rich
mond papers contain long letter from Cover
nor kemper. explanatory OF certain private
letters to Colonel John T. MOsby relative 10
General Grant and the third term, and to his
visit TO the President in December last. He
opposes the third term, but he says if the future
should bring forward a candidate imp ersonatiuy
the third term principle if he should cut loose
from all party trammels and take his stand on
our safe, conservative ground of universal re-
conci iatiOn and peace under the Constitutions;
and If, so standing, he should be opposed by
any champion OF the civil rights InIquity. then
In a contest between the two, the conservative
party ought, in his opinion, to 90 decidedly
but as an organized party and not otherwise
Tor the third termer; yet with protest on their
lips against The third term principle, and in
spite of thai principle. In regard to his visit to
Washington, he says that, in response to an
express desire conveyed TO him orally that he
would call and see the President. he, after ad-
vising with a number of able and leading con-
servatives, made up his mind to make the call
lie went and had manly aud square talk with
the President, and says while he would not 50
violate propriety as to aliude to particulars vet
he regrets that every word that passed between
them could not have been taken down and pub-
lished, for its publication would have done
credit TO both, and no discredit or harm to any
part OF the country or people.

The CROPS IN MISSOURI AND PENNsYLyA-
NIA.-The Missouri papers convey the yratify-
ing intelligence that the crops are unusually
promising in that state. The Springfield Pa.
Tlot estimates that there are 25 900 acres or
wheat in its county, which will turn out Is
bushels per acre, yielding a total OF 3I5 900
bushels, of which 100000 bushels will be for
export. This may be taken as an average of
speak, ali OF them declaring that there will be
a larger yield of wheat in the state than was
ever known before; and, what is more, the
grain is plump, full and hard. showing that the
quality Is as satisfactory as the quantity. The
growing corn Is coming on finely. Equally
cheering reports are made OF the crops In Penn
sylvania. The hay crop now being harvested
Is unusually large. Corn, potatoes and fruits
of all kinds promise an abundant WELD and the
state papers .'lOOk for one of the largest crops
ever KNOWN

The MARRIAGE LAW FOB COLoRED PEOPLE
IN VIRGINIA.-A Virginia court has decided
that the act of the Assembly passed at the SEES
sion OF 1866, providing that all colored persons
cohabiting together at the time OF the passage
should be husband and wife, is null and void
The case was a prosecution of two cOlored men
Tor bigamy under that statute, and the prison.
ers were discharged. The effect of this decision
will be to unsettled the marriage relations of
nearly one fourth OF the people or Virginia. A
slave could not contract a legal marriage aud
such of the freedmen as have not gone through
with the usual ceremony since their emancipa-
ton are not married In the eye Of the (Virginia)
law.
