WisnisoTON, October ^ 9.—Captaiq Mills’
rei>ortdevelops no new 'facts regarding {lie
Camilla riot. The report concludes: ,,
"From what I could learn, the colored peo-‘
pie arid whites are peaceably disposed to
wards each other. In my investigation qf the
matter l was materially assisted by Major.
Howard, and upon my arrival at Camilla the
citizens of that place appeared desirous that!
the occurrences of the 19th instant should, he
investigated. Up to Gradate of my( vijit {tere-
no action had been taken Hy'the civil author
ities of the county, jppjj had any inquest been ,
held on the bodies of those killed.”
General Howard endorses Sibley’s report to,
General Schofield as follows:
“I have the honor to forward to ypu the..
affidavits sent me by General Sibley with re
gard to the Camilla riot. The General says •
that no action whatever has been taken by
the civil authorities at this’ dale,' Oetbber'Gth, '
toward bringing the guilty parties to punish-,
meut. and no inquest was ’held upon'tfie
bodies nor an investigation had excepit bji
this Bureau and Captain Mills, by the order
of tho commanding officer of the District of
Georgia, whose repor/ had ,been fofwatded to
the commanding officer of the Department
of the South.” ...
He further Bays":
*:It isriot -bilieAedit jt&silAU tft the
guilty parties to punishment through the
civil authorities of Mitchell county, tiitty*
being engaged in the affair and qualifying it;
and no unbiassed jury could be found in that
county." •'. ' .
General Sibley iriakes no further remarks 1
which relate to this riot, but simply sends the
affidavits', together a private letter from
an officer in that county, who makes a special
reipest of him that-it be not published.

Cuba and Mr. Seward. -
Tho Secretary of State is said to be very
much excited about the Spanish Revolution,
and is in constant telegraphiecommunication
with Mr. Hat.e, at Madrid. The cause 'of all
this activity is supposed to be Cuba. The
sharp Secretary is trying to make up for lost
£ me. A French paper suggests that he
light have bought Cuba from the ' falling
Queen for a mere trifle; but he wanted fore
cast, and the chance is lost. It is not pre
sumed that any new Government will sigukl-
ize its adventyto power by alienating the
richest jewel of the nation. And that Cuba i
herself desires annexation, we have no- evi
dence.
The con esjKmdont of the New YatiC~Trif)UMe
writes:
The revolution in Spain is the great theme
•of conversation among tlie foreign diplomats
, here. Secretary Seward has been very active
in keeping himself thoroughly acquainted
with the feelings of the members of the
various legations, aud is in constant tele
graphic communication with out Minister at
Madrid. A prominent member of one of the'
foreign legations, while in conversation .with
your correspondent to-day-, made some state
ments which are important and interesting,
when taken in connection with the present
difficulties in Spain. He says that the Spanish
revolution is understood to ho rathor the
result of political combinations than a popu
lar uprising. There were in Spain two polit
ical organizations arrayed against the Queen’s
Government. Tho first was known aS the
Liberal Union, headed by Marshal Serrano.
The other, with Republican tendencies, was
led hy General Prim, not because he be
lieved in a Republic, hut because lic finw in
that direction a better chauco of political
' advancement.
The combination of the Liberal Union and
of the Republicans under Prim, led to the
overthrow of the Queen. Tho main question
which occurs is, what kind of Government
can be organized hy- those rival forces ? Will
they- compromise among themselves, or re
sort to a civil war V As yet it is impossible
to tell. The influence of this revolution will
not be felt in Cuba, at least for some tirritei'
The Captain General of the Island is able to
maintain tlie peace until he receives "official
news from the nowly organized Government.
If a civil war should follow the revolution in
Spain, then his position would become very
critical. It is certaiu that no European Gov
ernment will try to interfere in these Spanish
affairs. The European Governments will re
cognize any de facto Government which may
be organized there. It is understood, also
that the United States Government is ac.ting
ou the same principle. The. Spanish Minis-,
ter in the United States is quietly waiting for
the instructions which will reach ,him in a
few days. . : r.
. Saraniiah.
We made a nhort business visit to Savannah '
last Week—vour Jirst trip,to the thriving For^t i
City since “grim visaged war httfr smoothed”
ihis wrinkled front. ” Tho weather while we
were there was so stormy that but little can
be said of our jaunt as a pleasure excursion.
We had no opportunity of seeing the city as
such, and will therefore content oursett with
the remark that a stranger can detect nothing
within eye-range of either of>the tbreo prin
cipal hotels that would suggest the great and
growing importance and commercial power
of this famous old seaport. Besides, we did
not go to see Saranmih. ;is she is quietly spread
beneath her moss-Wreathed trees, and clasped 1
about her beautiful little grass-covered
squares—our mission was one of business. 1
We went to see her merchants at their bn si- :
ness houses, and to make the acquaintance
of at^east a portion of those energetic and
spirited men whose enterprise and capital are
making her stand boldly forth, undeniably
the second commercial port in the* South..
| And that she so stands no one can.;be sur-
f prised who has met and knows her factors,
shippers and commission merchants. Bay.,
street is a perfect hive. The iiiimejipe
business of the entire port, is transacted,
on this street, and for qrder, system
and thoroughness of detail it caunqt pe
surpassed. Largo steamships are received,
and in the short space of thirty-six hours they
are discharged of heavy cargoes ot assorted
merchandise, reloaded with cottoA’ and either
produce, and dispatched again to distriiit
ports. No idle bottoms are permitted at the
wharf of Savannah. A line of foreign steam
ers composed of ten first-class freighter's, has
been established to Liverpool direct, and will
commence making regular trips troi^i this side
on the 15th of November. This enterprise
has the heartiest favor of all the proinineht
merchants of the city. It will enable our,
people to become direct importers of wares
and merchandise as well as shippers to Eu
rope of cotton and other productions of our
section. Tho port and interior d>alcrs in
merchandise should avail themselves* pf the
facilities offered by tllis line to obtaiivforeign
goods of first hands and save the large profits
now paid to the importers of New York Aviui
Other cities. No reason can now Be given
why Georgia should go to Northern ports to
get supp’ics of English or French fabrics,
other than that our people will* voi buy them
directly in England and France and get them
home by this new line. steamships- So
well were.ye pleased w£th xuur n^gubors, that
we hope to'*-see them again-before long.—
