Tile Wheat Crop. In view of tho probability that tho growing wheat crop will be a short oue, a correspondent of the Grenada (Miss.) Rural Gentleman, suggests a remedy in the planting of May wheat, which he says is equally us good and yields as much.—• Our friends would do well toconsidor this suggestion mid govern themselves ac cordingly. It is suggested by one of our Tenjicssee exchanges, that our farmers ought to plant larger crops than usual of Indian corn. This is another good sug gestion. - ♦ Augusta anil N.rou Hull Knud.

In company with some friends he took the cars of the kyouth Carolina Rail Road, and is known tT sol out at Branchville, where he “was last seen about 111 o’clock that uight. Since then nothing has been seen or heard of him, though every exertiou has been made by his friends and family. It il feared that some foul play may have beon practiced, as a saddle, with weights attached to submerge it, was found on i’ridsy in the Edisto River, over which Mr. Cummings would have to pase to reach horn®.. The Mouther,, Conference. It lias already been announced that the I Legislature of Virginia has declared it 1 inexpedient to meet the Southern States in general convention, which is her res ponse to the special mission of South Carolina in the person of Col. Memmin ger. The notion of Virginia is to be re gretted, for if the time ever was when the South should meet and take counsel from a common danger, that time has al ready come. Her misfortune is, that she has been always divided; while those who seem to insist on occupying a posi tion of uulaguuitm to her, have acted as j if moved by a common impulse and with ! one purpose. The necessity of the proposed confer ! once of the Southern States is cvinced*in the fact that the Constitution of our fath ers formed for tho purpose of effecting “ a more perfect union, and insuring domestic tranquility,” has utterly failed in its purposes, and is no longer a com mon bond of union between tho North and tho South. It is superseded by a “ higher law,” and affords no security to the possession and enjoyment of the rights guaranteed to us. There should then be some demonstration on the part of tho South of her determination to maintain them. What could afford more serious evidence of this intention than the .South ern States formally assembled in conven tion for the sole purpose of deliberating and evolving some common plan of ac ! lion V The indignation aroused through many portions of tho South by the sym , pathy expressed for tlm bloody attempt at Harper’s Ferry, the impetus given thereby to Southern domestic industry, and the re-action at the North in conse quence of this feeling, furnishes no slight evidence of the powerof the South when influenced by a common injury, and awakened to a sense of retaliation. The as sembling of the convention would bo no evidence llmt the States represented in it, j distrusted the ability of the South to pro tect her rights and liberties. Ou the contrary, it would show that each repos ed such confidence in her strength, that united action was all that was necessary louse it with proper'effect, and it is a self-evident proposition that no common agreement can bo made without uconven j tion. Tho mere consciousness of power is but a poor consolation unless it be used, and this dependence ou our resouraes without making them available, has been a curse instead of a blessing to the,Bouth. While we have been reposing in fancied security relying on our abilities per e to protect us, our more wily and agile ene my, has gained every advantage. We should not wait for another infraction of our constitutional rights, but the con vention should bo held, a common plan of action devised, and a solid phalanx formed (o carry it, if necessary, into practical effect. It could possibly do no harm, whilo it would of necessity work much good. With an undivided front presented to tho North, at this crisis wo should enable our friends there to co operate more effectually with us, the change wrought in the Northern mind would bo manifested at the next general election, through the ballot box, and the endorsers in Congress of an infamous book that inculcates treason and blood shed would bo suporseded by others who respect and would concede all our rights. In such n Uuion, the South could afford to remain contented. Foreign Commerce of the Several Slates. Tho Now York Journal of Commerce has made a classification of the foreign commerce of the free and slave States that havo any direct foreign trade. A large portion of tho imports are carried to New York and landed elsewhere for consumption, which is true to some ex tent of Southern commerce, especially of the trade to New Oilcans, which iB aug mented by the flow of business from all tho States bordering on the rivers leading to the Gulf. The total amount of the foreigu com merce of the free States for the year end ing 110th June, 1859, is in exports to for eign ports $100,102,770; foreigu imports $305,813,819. The total exports of the slave States to foreign ports is $187,- 020,080; foreign imports $32,955,281. Tlie total exports of the United States to foreign ports is $356,789,-102 ; total for eigu imports, $888,708,130. It will be seen that while the exports from South ern ports, exclusive of specie, are 70 per Cent greater tliuii those from Northern ports, nine tenths of the imports of the Country aro lauded iu the free States. - - ■ Slavery Iu the Territories. The following are taken from n series of resolutions intro iueed in the United States Senate, Thursday last, by Mr. Davis, of Mississippi. They set forth the only doctrine that the South should sub mit to iu the premises : -4. Resolved, That neither Congress nor a Territorial Legislature, whether by di rect legislation or legislation of au indi rect or unfiiendly nature, possess the power to annul aud impair the constitu tional right of any citizen of the United States to take his slave property into the common Territories, hut it is the duty of the Federal Government there to afford for that, ns for either specie of property, the needful protection : and, if experi ence should nt uny time prove that the judiciary does not possess power to insure adequate protection, it will then become the duty ofOougress to supply such de ficiency. 5. Resolved, That the inhabitants of an organized Territory of the United Stales, when they rightfully form a Constitution to be admitted ns a -State into the Union, may then, for the first time, like tho peo ple of a State, when farming anew Con. stitution, decide for themselves whether slavery, ns a domestic institution, shall he maintained or prohibited within their jurisdiction, and, if Congress shall admit them as a State, “they shall he received into the Union with or without slavery, as their Constitution may prescribe nt the time of their admission.” ♦ The Columbia (8. C.) Guardian under stands that some of the citizens of that city are having manufactured an elegant I‘ahnelto cane to he presented to Mr. Ed. mundson of Va., as a testimonial of their appreciation of his conduct iu the recent eanepresentation to Mr. Hickman of l’enn sylvanifi. - • A beautiful thought is suggested in the Koruu: “Angels, iu the grave will not question thee as to the amount of wealth thou hast left behind thee; but what good deeds thou hast done, while in the world, to entitle thee to a seut amoug the licet!” .
