The New York Sun is convinced that "as a last desperate means to re electing Grant, his managers contem plate bringing on a war with Spain, with Cuba for its pretext." Napoleon went to war to save bis dynasty, and he failed in it. Woles got sick to Secure the sympathy and affection of the people. Grant had better profit by the experience of other imperialists and get sick. He being so aooustomed to "taking" things, will not mind taking a little physic. It is neoes- aary to warn him, however, that the sickness of the old man will not accom plish the end sought. HB. Certain Georgia Radicals have been persistent in their efforts to induce Grant to interfere in Georgia affairs to the end that Governor Smith might be prevented from taking the gubernatorial chair. They ancceedod in enlisting Cam eron and Delano in the scheme, but Grant and the Cabinet ooneluded it would be unwise and dangerous to Grant's chances of re-election to humor their Georgia friends in their caprices, and de clined to interfere in the matter, at which said friends are very much disgusted. The abovo is from the special Wash ington oorrespondenc. of tho Louisville hahjer, and possibly explains why the Georgia's "loyal citizons" have returnod from Washington “all in dumps.” The ax they had to grind is yet dull; and the names of Grant and Akerman no longer hold a certain conspicnous position in "the organ,” which for so many months they ha re been occupying. There is no doubt that there is trouble in the ranks of the Philistines. The happy family is disconsolate. They pine for the strong arm of the National Government to lean upon. They are very sad. The Texas Colton Crop. The Columbna Sun publishes a letter from a leading Galveston firm, addressed to a firm in Columbus, giviogsome facts relative to the cotton crop ef the present year aa compared with last year. We give some portions of the letter below: The present year will close with about the some receipts st this port as those of last year up to December 31st, which would indicate that the crop of Texas for this season will amount to os much os that of last year; but such will uot be the case. 1st Last season we had yellow fever reports, and were strictly quarantined far several weeks, and communication with the interior wns interrupted until about the flrat of December. 2d. There boa been a fair yield of cot ton in the lower counties adjacent to the railroad, which bare been extending dur ing the pact twelve months furthor into the interior, giving batter faoilities for getting the crop to market; and prices have stimulated its being brought rapidly forward. 3d. The great falling off in produstion is in the middle and upper counties, a large portion of the crop ol which never arrives here until after tho first of Jann- y. have no reason to change Our views with regard to the receipts at thia port, still believing thst they will not exceed 200,000 bales, against 300,000 last aeaaotv niiWP MB ■ fork week, In a'very* condition. Tuesday evening, nays the Savannah Sews, sb Isaac Roasefi, one ot the Rep resentative* of Chatham county, in the State Legislature, was returning to liis homo across a j>ortion of the commons, on tho south west era aide of the city, he was attacked by a gaDg of negroes, who fired a number of pistol shots at him and subsequently attempted to ohoko him. None of the balls wounded Mr. Russell, though there are six perforations in his pants and coat. Mr. Russell can not im agine what the. motive was which promp ted the negro os to attack him, and yes terday lie was Confined to his room ou ac count of other iojuries received at their hands. Soiree Musicale is a current Savannah iiliosyncracy. An Augusta intm—not named— has handed Mayor 923 for the pear. On Saturday.tat, .23$ jMtent, *ays the Macon Telegraph, at uriswoldville, Mr. Hubbard Reynold, of Twiggs county, was stabbed in several places in the body, by a negro man named Amos Griswold. A gentleman just from Oriswoklville, re ports that it was a most wanton and un provoked attack. At last accounts Mr. R. was still alive, but no hopes were en tertained of his recovery. The negro was captured end lodged in jail at Clin ton. A sad accident occurred near Hogue's brick vard yesterday morning at about 11 o'clock, says the Macon Telegraph of the 28th. Johnny Dacey, aged about 14 years, together with a friend of his about the same age, were out hunting. One of them had killed a bird which fell into the water, and Johnny's friend had pulled off bis shoes and gone for it. He sat down to put on hia shoes, and Johnny com menced loading the gun. His friend, whose back was turned toward him ut the time, heard the report of the gun, and when he looked round saw him lying up on the ground. He ran to him and found that by some means the gun had been accidentally discharged, and the load had entered Johnny’s throat, passing out at the book of the neck, producing death in a few minutes. Hardin 33. Smith, of Twiggs county, died on the 24th—a^ed 22. The Macon Telegraph sa^ s: On Mon day night, 25th instant, at about 12 o’clock, a negro man named Sparrow, living at Maxwell Mills, iu Jones county, a few miles below Gristwoldville, was murdered. He was asleep m his house when some one hallowed at the gate and asked him to oome to the door. Having no thought of ^danger, he threw open the door, and immediately two shots were fired, apparently from a double-barreled ahot gou, the second taking effect in his breast, producing instaut death. There is nothing upon which to ground any suspicion as to who the murderer was. John is said to have been a harmless, in offensive negro, and so far os any person knows, was without an enemy, either white or black.

The spokesmau of ths Warren square party stated tnat they had been incited by tus boys of the other square to join them in tne raid, and be cause they were not present during the other’s attack on the negroes, they were upbraidsd for wont of courage.
