The Wheat Crop.—The Norfolk Jour nal of the 22d inst, says: “ Wo are glad to learn by accounts we see from various parts of the State, that the wheat looks very well everywhere. Throughout the Valley it is extremely promising; on the Roanoke and its branches it never pro sented a finer appearance at this time of the year; while the same may be said of the counties aloDg the James River. ” The Chicago JW&tm* thinks that wheat, j the great staple of the Northwest, can J scarcely get much lower. It says : “Onr farmers, in their present preparations for planting, will probably turn their atten tion more to other grains; and itis hard ly probable tbafc this, as well as all other wheat-producing regions, will have an other as abundant crop this year as dar ing the last two years.

Well, as I intimated in that letter that tho receipt of your paper ufforded me no little gratifica tion, and that as ocoaaion offered I would endeavor to contribute to its columns, the wish you were pleased to express in connection with the publication of the extract aforesaid, has stimulated my re solution to the writing point, and result ed in this effort in your tieliulf, * You say that I have, prultably, many acquaintance* in Georgia. But, Mr. Ed itor, sixteen years constitute on import- nut port of u short lifetime, and have, doubtless, wrought changes us great iu the domestic and social relations as iu the political uspect of my native State. Siucu the 12th of July, 1851, fresh from my at- mu nutter, I bade liom - and friends adieu, aud sought un adventurer's fortunes upon this coast, Time’s unsparing hand has touched with vicissitude every remem bered object of love aad admiration. Youthful hearts have lost their bouyaney, youthful steps their elasticity, heads once us tho raven’s wings have silvered o’er, the giddy mirthfuluess of boyhood hus given place to the gravity of maturcr years, childhood's air castles have crum bled in the grusp of reality, aud its wuxen- wingea fancies melted in the glance of experience. The comp.inions of my schooldays—what ^ of them?' Sixteen years have advanced those who survive to middle age, an “inmemorutm" is writ ten of the reat The altar and the grave have broken np the old relationships of the past, and few, if any. of my loDgleft kindred and friends, or tho well remem bered sarronndings of my boyhood would look familiar to me now. For whatever of the wonted look of well 1 uown objects and scenes Time’s mutilating touch may have spared. War’s ravages have partially, if not wholly, obliterated. These reflec tions, which you will pardon me for in dulging, are suggested by yotu allusion to my friends aud acquaintances in Geor gia.

Mr. Harris said Gen. Terry merely wanted an indica tion of the will of the people, and that wo were not acting under the Constitu te n of Geirj.iL Mr. W. replied that Senators had sworn to support that Con stitution. That was the tenure of their office, aud no power on earth could al - solve them from it. Higbee thought they had been relieved from that oath ; when, with withering scorn of "manner, that abashed the interpreter, Mr. Wooten asked, “Who relieved you ? Where did he get power of absolution/” He af- pealed to Sanators not to stulify them selves. Candler and Wooten opposed the resolution strennonsly, because it pro posed to confer upon the Governor the power to raise funds for some undefined, unascertained means, for the purpose of paying an uncertain and doubtful amount of indebtedness. It would confer blindly npon one man the unlimited power to sack the State of Georgia. Senator Nunually said he did not take the position that money conld be appro priated by resolution. This was not an appropriation, merely an expression of SPECIAL NOTICES.

Scott called the attention of the Speak er to the fact that on similar occasion* he had rnled the motion to reconsider out of-order. The Speaker did not recollect that the point had been made before. If it was, lie was acting under instructions from Terry. Price stated that on a previous occasion he hud referred to members immediately sworn in, consequently the motion to re consider could effect nothing in this in stance—they had not been sworn in. Darnell proposed to reconsider, bnt did not desire to exclude any county in Georgia from representation iu the House. He believed that under the re- constructiou laws they conld now be ad mitted; this was a Provisional Govern ment and it whs not in the province of the House to go outside the rulings of the Speaker.

The illusion is tho product of fals*« impressions, and originates in the diseased state of the perception or con ception. The hallucination is tin pro duct of false contemplations, and origi nates in an impaired judgment, or a dis turbed association of ideas. The ecstacy is a higher degree of hallucination, the understanding having yielded entirely to the imagination, and the nervous system iu a state of excitement overpowers the judgment, while it elevates and iuvige- rates momentarily the other faculties.
