A Call for preater Energy in Prosecut¬
ing the War.
Havana, Dec. 17.—The proposed en¬
rollment for military duty of all men be¬
tween 18 and 40 years of age, a fourth of
whom are to be conscripted for active ser¬
vice, is gaining advocates. The Diaro
says: "We are now at the loth of
December, and have raised no means
and done nothing new to erush
the rebellion; let us give fresh
impetus to the winter campaign, if we
would advance on the road to pacification
of the Island. The enemy will gain
time and territory, and we wtli have
cause to deplore our criminal vacil¬
lation. Without a great and united
movement on our part, the war will
drag on as it has to the present honr. It
has consumed annually from 10,000 to
15,000 soldiers and $40,000,000. When
we find ourselves fallen, never to rise
again, we will bitterly regret our short¬
sighted lack of preparation.”
The Voz DeCuba shows that the pro¬
longed resistance of Cartagena is drain¬
ing the resources of Spain and weakening
her power. Castellar is not strong enough
now to oppose the exactions of foreign
governments, which nearly all tend to the
destruction of Cuba, and the longer
his declining power is respected and
obeyed in Cuba, the greater is the
probability that the object of those
foreign demands will be accomplished.
Several letters appear in the evening jour¬
nals, addressed to the Captain General,
and calling on him to declare the island in
a state of siege, and to enroll citizens.
A steamer from Cadiz arrived to-day
with 800 soldiers and 150 seamen.

CREATING A SENSATION.
From the St. Louis Republican.
Washington, Dec. 11.— Mr. Kasson, in
bis speech, said that a tendency to exalt
the executive branch and debase the legis¬
lative branch of the Government had
grown until it had become alarming. He
said there was a tenderness manifested in
regard to the executive person which ill be¬
come the representatives of a free people;
that the exclusion of the President from
the operation of the repeal was simply one
of a long series of unduly acts whereby the elec¬
tive had been , exalted and the
Legislature of the nation unduly humbled.
It was time to check this growing and
dangerous tendency and the way to check
it was by an exhibition of manly inde¬
pendence on the part of Congress. These
were novel sentiments to be heard from
the Republican side of of the house and cre¬
ated considerable a sensation.

It is astonishing with what rapidity our

as a ootton Thousands upon
thouBands of bales are annually shipped
by the several steamboat lines to various
points North. But at present we wish to
congratulate our citizens more particularly
upon the very large foreign trade which
is being bnilt up here. Not only is this
earned on indirectly through Northern
ports, but immense auipments are made
direct to Liverpool and other European
ports As an instance of the magnitude
of the direct trade, we will state that
there are now three British and one
American barks Iving here awaiting car
goes of cotton, viz: the Arlington, 849
tons; Bessie Parker, 673 tons; Emms
Payzent, 850 tons, and N. Thayer, 550
tons: the aggregate registered tonage
these vessels being 2, Mzl, and their oa
pacity for cotton, 8,706 bales. They
were chartered by ‘be Messrs. Reynolds
Bros., who will load three of them for
Liverpool Norfolk Landmark. and the ether for Amsterdam. —

ORANGE CULTURE.
From the Florida Settler.
It has been generally supposed that it
required a large amount of capital to start
ft paying orange grove. But as may be
seen by the accompanying statement, this
is a mistake. The kind of capital needed
most is patience and industry. These
qualities should constitute the great stock
in-trade of every man starting out to es¬
tablish an orange grove. With these, the
poor man, having but little means beyond
the amount given, can go to work, and in
ten years have a grove which will yield
him a revenue of five or ten thousand dol¬
lars a year. Having entered his home¬
stead, he sets about building a house and
planting five or ten acres in orange trees.
They require but little attention, and
while attaining that point of growth when
they become profitable, he supports him¬
self from the cultivation of the rest of his
homestead, in the manner he wo aid have
to do if he entered it in any of the West¬
ern States. He has only to exercise pa¬
tience and industry, and the event must
issue in independence. With these quali
ties, orange culture in Florida is a certain
road to wealth. Nor is the wealth liable
to any of the contingencies to which the
income of the merchant is subject.
The orange is a sure crop. The tree is
long-lived, and has few enemies. Its
greatest enemy is cold, and an escape
from this can be rendered almost abso¬
lutory certain by planting far enough
South. The scale insect made its ap¬
pearance among the orange trees in L838,
and for a while it did considerable damage
but it has now almost entirely disappear¬
ed, and is wholly subject to intelligent
culture. This weai is certain also from
the fact that no species of foreign orange,
as found in this country, can compare
with tire Florida fruit in flavor or sweet¬
ness. The superior quality of the oranges
of the State is a matter about which there
is no question. For hundreds of years
the decision has been in their favor, and
every one that now finds its way to market
confirms this decision.
'The St. Johns river is at present the
favorite place for orange planting, owing
to the convenience with which the fruit
can be shipped to market. But the In¬
dian aDd Halifax rivers, the entire South
ern portion or the Peninsula, and the
gulf coast, are equally well suited. The
oranges of Charlotte Harbor and Tampa
Bay are not excelled by none in the State,
and the trees of these localities are much
less liable to be injured by frost than
those of the St. Johns. There are some
fine groves on the Apalachicola river.
Their number is about twenty-five, lo¬
cated between Rico's Bluff, in Liberty
county, and Owl Creek, the boundary line
between Franklin and Liberty counties, a
distance of some twenty-four miles.
Above Rico’s Biuff about twenty miles
there area few young groves, and "at Apa¬
lachicola City a few valuabe groves, in
addition to those mentioned. The
majority of the groves are small and
the average yield is about 25,000
oranges, the greatest yield of a single or¬
chard having been 200,000 oranges. The
groves have never been known to have
been injured by insects. The small trees
were somewhat injured by the cold winter
of 1872 and 1873, but large trees show
little or no signs of damage. The growth
is mainly due to the protection of forests
The land is poor and has to be well ma¬
nured before planting. Last year’s crop
and was not sold so good as that of former years,
for an average price of $25 per
thousand oranges at the orchard. The
oranges from these groves are of a very
superior quality, equaling in size, richness
of flavor, and fullness of pulp, any grown
anywhere. -

CROP REPORTS.
Jacksonville, III., Dec. 13.—Reports
dated Dec. 1, received at the office of the
National Crop Reporter, correcting pre¬
vious estimates, indicates for the corn
crop of 1873, in comparison with that of
1872, as follows: States of Illinois, Wis¬
consin, Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio, Tennes¬
see, Kansas and Missouri, which produce
in the aggregate over one-half the entire
crop of the United States, total loss of 29
and 2-10th per cent.; heaviest loss in Kan¬
sas, 44 per cent,; lightest in Wisconsin,
11 per cent.; Illinois, loss nearly 38 per
cent.; Iowa, over 24 per cent.; Ohio near¬
ly 2 per cent., and Missouri 32J per cent.
Returns relative to tbe total quantity of
fatted hogs for the market this season as
compared with last, indicated in the States
above mentioned and in Georgia and Ar¬
kansas a total falling off of ten per cent.
Of this the percentage of loss in Illinois,
4 7-10th; Iowa, 4 4-10; Ohio, 9; Missouri
7 3-10, and Wisconsin, Th. Correspond¬
ents state that in order to supply the de¬
mand from packers, the reserves of stock
hogR has been drawn upon quite exten¬
sively, and that as a rule the supply of
hogs fit for market is nearly or quite ex¬
hausted at points of production.
Partial returns from Illinois, Missouri
and Georgia as to the average of winter
wheat sown this season indicates an in¬
crease in those States of 8 8-10 per oent.
over the average sown in the fall of 1872.
The condition and prospects in nearly all
the Territories are very much more favor¬
able than in December, 1872.
A Bombshell from T-.veed,— It is said
that Tweed is employing his leisure hours
in the penitentiary by writing his autobi
ography. Mr. Tweed has carefully kept
a dairy of his life, and he proposes, now
that he occupies a felon's cell, to give the
world some startling disclosures. He
proposes to tell his manner of doing busi
ness, whom he bought to serve his purpo
ses, and what the average price of Alaba
ma legislators is. Probably no one man
in the country has had so varied an ex
perienee in this line as Mr. Tweed, and
no man can make such startling revela
nous. Hunaxeas oi strigur-a<jea, proper
acting people, will by this book be shown
up in their true light, and the world at
large will get an idea of the inner working
\ of a gigantic ring.— Macon Telegraph.
