Famine in India.
Wo reckon the British intend to
starve out their East Indian dependents
and make an end of them. Nothing will
do the British bat that India must be a
cotton country. But India, with its hun
dreds of millions, cannot raise coton
without starring tho people. Tho people
need all its broad acres for rice and other
food crops. Bnt, in eonsoquenco of the
inhuman persistence in cotton growing,
Bengal, for the second time in a few
yean, is in a famine. Six years ago mil
lions starred to death, and millions more
are going to starve within a year from
this time.
The India press talks about importing
food from the Western American States
to eave them. As well talk of feeding an
army with a teaspoon. It is not a light
business feeding American cotton plant
ers from the Western granaries—a dis
tance of a thousand miles, and it can bo
done only by raising the price of corn
from fifteen cents to a dollar and over.
But when it comes to feeding countless
millions of India cotton planters from
Chicago and St. Louis the ease is desper
ate. The fleets of chrlstoadjm can’t do
it. The India cotton planters may at
tempt to prove it is bettor to have their

A Nice Programme.
Tkc Cincinnati Commercial continues
to preserve jts reputation as a singular
level-headed joerat! amidst all the gassy
clamor of its ootemporasies of that sec
tion for a war with Spain. Referring to
a hydrophobic roar from the Chicago
Times for a general wiping out of every
body in Cuba, including the rebellions
Cabans thsmulres, and the seizure of
the island by tho United States—for
which the Times alleges eppry man, wo

them from the country with let* disturb
ance to industry and the opportunity of
winning bock their allegiance to the flag,
the volunteer* should be taken principal-
ly from the South.
Bnt suppose the Southern rebels should
not volunteer to any alarming extent—
what then ? The Government may suc
ceed in getting a few oomr>r.niai r ? high
headed Chorleiton darkey militia, as we
understand some of them are fairly foam

tion is that white volnnteer* would not
bother the mustering officer* with offers
of themselves as targets for Spanish bul
lets. They have something else to do.

They feel very little interest in this
fight with poveny and ruin storing them
in the free. They have a living to make,
and with all their efforts findit very diffi
cult to keep the wolf from the door.
What trill it profit them to see Caba
in the hands of the carpet-baggers and
other vermin, and that fair and fertile
island under tho murderous heels of the
same gang that now dominates South
Carolina, Louisiana nnd Mississippi ? Tho
Southern people have had more than
enough of such infamous prostitution of
the name ami spirit of liberty. If the
Administration wants volunteers from
tho South let it call on its favorite color.
It has no right to expect "rebels” and
"traitors,” as it calls and treats the true
Southern people, to desert their homes
and risk their lives for the purpose of
setting up another model on the fashion
so-called governments that now rule and
rob in threeor four States of the "Union.”
If the country is invaded or menaced
with invasion Southern men will rally, as
they have ever done, to -its def-nce.
They are Americans, and will stand up
for their native land when it is threatened
by hostile fleets and armies, but that is
as much os can be expected of them.
When it comes to volunteering to subju
gate another country as they have boon
subjugated and to impose such oligarchy
of fraud, force, ignorance and brutality
upon other* as they have been forced to
submit to here, count them out.
The Cuba News anti Talk.
A special telegram of the 17th, from
Washington in the Courier Journal says i
Secretary Robeson is not expected to
return here for several days. The prin
cipal object of his visit is to make a per
sonal inspection of the condition cf our
naval vessels at the Philadelphia and
Brooklyn yards, and to push forward as
rapidly os possible the work of repair and
fitting up now going on.

The tug-boat Tints, which is preparing
for a dispatch boat between Havana and
Key West, ia a rapid sailer, and it is sup

from ft to 10 hour.*. It is the intention
that the Navy Department shall have
daily intelligence of what is transpiring
in Cuban waters, nnd the commander qf
onr naval forces will have instructions to
send constantly full dispatches.

The general impression seems to be
settling down now to the conviction thnt
wo are to havo war, which, however, does
not seem to be shared in to any consider
able extent by prominent officials.
PnoHINEHT CU11ASS.
Most of tbo prominent Cubans who
havo been sojourning in Washington left
to-night for New York, avowing their de
termination never to ceaso their efforts
till Cuba is free. Telegrams and letters
by the score hare been coming to the
Secretaries of War and tho Navy, from
volunteer officers in the late war, tender
ing their services in case of hostilities.
Many of tho ex-Confederates have also
written that they would like to have a
chance to serve tho Government if diffi
culties should arise.
THE PEESIDEET tS KAHSEST.
President Grant, who returned this
morning, was called upon hy quite a
number of people, despito the very in
clement weather. He was as usual
somewhat reticent, but what he did say
left no doubt that he meant business.
THE LONDON POESS.
Some surprise is expressed at the tone
of the London papers in accepting as a
foregone conclusion that Cuba must
speedily fall into tho hands of the United
States. A few years ago such a proposi
tion would not have been looked upon
with any degree of equanimity in any of
the countries of Europe.
The great war meeting in Steinway
Hall, Monday night, was attended by
3,000 people, and presided over by Hon.
William Evarts. At the conclusion of
Mr. Evarts’ introductory speech, the
crowd shouted vociferously for war. Sun
set Cox followed in a severe denunciation
of Spanish cruelty and the bloodthirsty
spirit in which the war in Cuba has been
prosecuted. Letters were read from
Henry Wilson, Governor Dix, Governor
Parker, of New Jersey, Governor Inger-
soll, of Connecticut, Governor Hendricks,
of Indiana. Beecher, Forney and Gerrett
Smith. Bnt tho most remarkable part
of this performance, consisted in an omis-
. The meeting had asked tha view*
of the Honorable Chawles, but Sumner
wrote so little to its purpose that his let
ter was never read. Sumner wrote, in
substance, that if the Virginias was a
filibuster she was entitled to no protec
tion. and there had been no grievance.
It would be foolish to mako her cose a
plpa for the recognition of Cuba, and it
would be crgel to precipitate a war, which
would result in the rsip of the Spanish
Republic. Sumner advised the people to
keep cool and listen to calmer views.

night’s storm blew down the African M.
E. Church building, and broke in one end
of the brick court-hocaa in Talbott on.
Trees and fences suffered eonsiderabl .
No person was injured. From all the
accounts we infer that only the lower
edge of the storm pasted through this
section, as the damage in the np country
was much heavier than in Columbus and
vicinity.
The Bankeutt Case of Mr. John
Kino.—By reference to our special tele
gram from Savannah, it will be seen that
the United State* Bankrupt Court has
decided the case of Mr. John King, the
ex-banker, in his favor—that is, refused
to declare him a bankrupt. This confirms
the assignment.
Ora FscromiES.—The Columbus Fac
tory is still running on full time. The
Muscogee Mills have increased from
three-fourths to full time. This com
menced Monday. The Clegg Factory for
some weeks has been in operation eight
hours per day on four days of tho week.
The Eagie and Phenix Mills after to-day
will run no more until Monday, when
half time will be adopted. The difficulty
in collecting is the only trouble.
The Savannah Advertiser says Bishop*
Beckwith reached that city Mon-lay night
after an absence of several months spent
in travel, with health greatly improved,
and prepared to renew bis official duties
ith increased seal and usefulness. He
officiated at Griffin on Sunday, and . goes
to Columbus. Go., the last of the week,
where he will officiate on Sunday next.
His return at this time was cause! by the
illness of Mrs. Beckwith.
Savannah cotton exports on Wednes
day amounted to 6,330 bales, valued at
$447,444 16.
The Btrnesville Gazette says the farm
er* of Pike county are busy sowing wheat
and will pnt in a large acreage in small
grain of all kinds. We hear this sort of
talk every year, but somehow or another
cotton generally gets the upper hand.
The "Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals’* met at Augusta on
Tuesday, and the Secretary read his re
port advising, in conclusion, “that the
Society memorialize the Legislature at
its approaching sesaion to make cruelty
to animals a statutory offense; to pro
vide, alike in the interests of humanity
and of agriculture, for the protection of
insectivorous birds, anil to inhibit the
unseasonable destruction of game. He
alro suggested a petition to the City
Council, asking the passage of an ordi
nance prohibitory of the ill-treatment of
animals in the streets and other public
places of the municipality, and an ad
dress requesting the humane to present
simila* memorials to the various city and
toirn councils throughout the State.”
The Savannah News rises to remark
that "the editor of tho St. Mary’s De
partment of the Brunswick Appeal is
chock full of solid littio chunks of wis
dom. He says that the Atlanta papers,
in order to make up for their sliort-com-
ings, intend to give their subscribers a
chance for a prize of some kind. The
best prize a paper can giro is good ideas
clearly expressed.”
The Brunswick Appeal relates that
several yean* ago a very wicked colored
man professed convers on. anil was token
by his pastor to bo baptised in one of the
small croeks on the coast, which was tho
usual place for baptising. It happened
daring a season when shrimps were very
abundant. Tlie minister and onr friend
went down into the water, and everything
being ready, the words "I baptize* the,”
etc., werefnttered, but at tho word "Son.”
the colored man cried ont: "Stop, massa,
stop, dem d—d shrimp, da tickle me.”
We learn from the Bamesville Gazette
that the house of Mr. J. II. Williamson,
of Monroe county, was burned one night
last week, together with all its contents
of clothing, furniture etc., and 1,800
pounds of seed cotton. Loss, between
5S00 and $1,000.
IIobeid JIuKDEa—The Romo Com
mercial, of Tuesday, has the following:
An account of a horrid murder come
to us yesterday. A desperado, working
at the .iEtna Iron Works, named Bill
Donohue, went to tho home of Captain
Clements, at Prior’s station, on Monday,
armed with a double-barrelled gun. lie
hailed parties inside the house, when
Miss Bush, a sister-in-law of Clements,
came to the door. Donohue fired one
barrel of his gun, the contents of which
entered the young lady’s abdomen, in
flicting a mortal wound, of which she
died in about two hours. When the shot
fired Captain Clements rushed to
the door and Donohue fired the other
barrel at him, inflicting a dangerous and
perhaps mortal wound. Donohue, we
learn, claims that his wife had been in
sulted by Captain Clements. Tho mur
derer escaped, and had not beep arrested
at List accounts.
| Ora Idea Exactlt.—The Constitution
alist expresses it as follows:
The New York Herald attemps to show
that a war with Spa : n would put money
in the purses of various and sundry citi
zens. A vast deal of the f-irvor supposed
to exist in consequence of the shooting of
Fry, Ryan & Co., is nothing but a pocket-
book pantomime, or sheet-iron thunder
evoked by the prospect of stealing some
thing from somebody.
The Fort Yalley Mirror says an old
man named McCoy, who travels through
the country sharpening gin saws, was
caught stealing money out of the drawer
at the store of N. Binswanger, in that
place, on Wednesday and arrested.
The same paper has this item:
Orville Green, while out partridge
hunting last Saturday evening, found a
valise down on the Columbus road con
taining a fine suit of clothes worth about
forty dollars. We believe it was stolen
from Willingham on the train while he
was in the hotel getting supper a week
ago.

derstand. was deemed ill-advisodand inex
pedient by his Kentucky friends, but the
withdrawal of his efficient services in such
a promising and growing field seems to
be considered by them a very great loss
to the Episcopal Church. In a private
letter addressed to a clergyman of this
city. Bishop Cuuimins states that the
step has cost him a bitter struggle, but
that he proposes to continue the func
tions of his episcopal offico in another di
rection. intimating the founding of s
phase of Episeopacy; it is supposed by
some of hi* friends based on tho prayer-
book advocated by Bishop White in the last
century, which will contain no tendency
to what theologians call “Sacerdotalism “
against which Bishop Cummins has been
very much opposed, giving as a reason
that clothing the officiating minister with
the functions qf a sacrificing priest in the
administration of tho sacraments, is con
trary to the articles of the Church.
Bishop Cummins has repeatedly expressed
his opposition to all phases of ritualism,
in sermons preached iu this city and other
portions of the diocese. Borne of the
churches in this city, it is known, have
been opposed to him because of his stric
tures upon surplus boy-choirs, genuflex
ions, ccclesiasticism, etc. So far has this
feeling gone cf late years, that some of
the churches have declined to avail tlicm-
aulves of his episcopal visitations. • ami
hare sent for Bishops of neighboring
States to officiate in tlie rite of con
firmation. By these congregations
the retent act of Bishop Cummins
in participating in the Communion ser
vices of a Presbyterian Church in New
York city has been regarded with consid
erable disapproval, and has rendered him
more unpopular in them than ever.
VIEWS OF EPISCOPALIANS ON BISHOP CUM
MINS’ ACT.
In a conversation -with the Rev. E. T.
Perkins, D.D., a Courier-Journal reporter
learned that tiic withdrawal of the Bish
op from the church was a great surprise
and shock to him. Dr. Perkins expressed
tho belief tliat Bishop Cummins’ post of
duty was in Kentucky, where he had a
fine and large field for his talents and
devotion the cause of Christ: that samo
of his rea ons, stated in his letter to
Bishop Smith were not valid or strong
ones; that if there was error in the
church, if it was "leavened with false
doctrines,” the better way would be to
stand his ground and resist its encroach'
ments.
In reply to a question as to Bishop
Cummins’ movements, Dr. Perkins said
he believed he would continue to exer
cise his Episcopal functions in a new
Church based on evangelical principles,
and a prayer-book from which was ex
cluded all tendency to unscripttiral doc
trine. The expression in Bishop Cum
mins’ letter, “I propose to return to
that prayer-book sanctioned by William
White, and to tread in the steps of that
saintly man, a3 lie acted from 1785 to
1789,” he though intimated his purpose
of founding another Church. # As to the
prospects of such a Church, Dr. Perkins
said that it might draw a few of tho
Episcopal churches, as they now exist,
into the organization but bo did not
think there would be large accessions
from what arc term'd the “Evangelical
churches,” ns many of them preferred
the present associations, and were wil
ling to contend for whnt they believed to
be the truth where they were.
As to a new Assistant Bishop, Dr. Per
kins thought there would be an imme
diate effort on tho part of some of tho
churches t> secure one, but he did not
believe it was advisable at this time, as
Bishop Smith could return to the diocSse
and exercise his episcopal functions as of
old. It was probable that Bishop Smith
would be addressed at once upon tho sub
ject, and lie had no doubt but that he
would return. Dre Perkins regretted the
action of Bishop Cummins very deeply,
both from motives of pcrsomil friendship
and for the sake of tiie ptace of the
Church.

Statement of the United States Con
sul at Ulnars ton, Jamaica, as toiler
Papers amt Character.
Tlio Washington correspondent of tho
Cincinnati Gazette telegraphs that paper,
under date of Nov. 16, as follows:
Thomas H. Pearne, bite United States
Consul at Jamaica, has just arrived hero,
and brings definite information in regard
to tho arrival and departure of the Vir-
ginius.at Kingston. Tho ship eamo down
to Kingston in charge of a Copt. Williams.
Soon after, Capt. Fiy arrive! from New
York with authority from'the owners of
tlie ship, given in tho name of a Mr. Pat
terson, of New York City, to take oom-
mand nnd take the vessel nnd cargo into
a Cuban port. About half of tho crew
deserted when preparations began for
loading and sailing. All tho transactions
were perfectly open, and the matter of
common notoriety. Arms, ammunition
and warlike stores of various kinds were
gathered and shipped. All intelligent
persons on the ship understood tho true
character of the vessel and of her mis
sion. Mr. Pearne had two interviews
with Captain Fry in regard to his
undertaking, and protested against
his undertaking it, and give it
his opinion that if the Span
iards captured him ho would surely be
shot; that every man on the ship took
his life in his hand when ho joined the
expedition. To theso protests Captain
Fry replied that the Spaniards could not
shoot him, as it only would be a case of
blockade running, nnd 5.3 he had been a
Confederate blockade runner he reasoned
that as tho United States did not shoot
jrisoners captured in this business tho
Spaniards would not do it. Afterward
Mr. Pearne sought Capt. Fry again, and
again attempted to dissuade him from
filing. The Captain replied to him the
whole matter was a question of broad for
his family. If he could succeed in land
ing his cargo whero it was wanted, it.
ould give him a largo sum of money,
and he was determined to make tho at
tempt at all hazards. There were about
a dozen Americans or English among the
seamen shipped, and it Is doubtful wheth
er all these had a very clear idea of the
character of the enterprise. Capt. Fry’s
papers were American, and in all respects
regular in form, though the real status of
the vessel was a matter of common noto
riety.
“ The position taken by our government
in regard to tho matter, in its dispatches
to Madrid, is that since the Virginias
carrid American papers altogether, under
tlie American flag, it was an act of grave
discourtesy, if not of positive insult, to
try nil oa board, and proceed with the ex
ecution in snch a summary manner, not
only without any notice to the United
States, but by so controlling telegraph
lines that no orders preventing the exe
cutions could be received. It ia believed
here that the United States has demand
ed that this government shall be made a
party to the further trial of tho prisoners
still unexecuted, and to passing upon tho
status of tho Yirginius, and that we
further insist that the conduct of those
ordering the executions shall be imme
diately investigated by the Spanish gov
ernment.”
The 'Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial gives a somewhat
different version of Consul Fearne’s re
port He says:
"Thoma3 H. Pearne, the American
Consul at _ Kingston. Jamaica, passed
through this city yesterday on his way
to his post of duty, and had a long inter
view with. Secretary Fish. He stated
that Capt. Fry appeared before him at
Kingston the day before sailing, and
made oath, to bis citizenship and to the
correctness of his papers, etc., which, of
coarse, were captured with the vessel.
Mr. Pearne is the only witness left. He
further stated that the Yirginius had
been regularly cleared from his port
seven or eight times before.”

Net/YoBK.November 20 - The officers of
th" MornC.i tlereport that on their arrival
at Havana the vessel was boarded. While
aboard the vessel the passengers were un
molested, but they were seized upon
landing. Six of the seventeen steerage
passengers were arrested, but were -dis
charged after being searched.
The Spanish officer explained tliat thoy
were suspected of bearing dispatches.
Tho persons for whom they were search
ing came on the City of New York. She
was boarded upon her arrival, her pas
sengers seized and searched and six de
clared guilty. Thro*' of them were
omen. An extensive correspondence
was found secreted about their persons.
One w:u> a niece of Aluiada who had at
tracted attention during the passage by
her great beajity and the brilliancy of her
conversation. The prisoners were con
fined in the cabin and their fate is un
known.
When the Moro Castle left. Bambalier,
the express agvnt, attempted to throw
some papers out of the window, but they
fell short. He was at once condemned,
to death.
An extensive correspondence which
had been seised implicated many persona
on the island hitherto unsuspected. They
were arrested, and as the Moro Csstle
left Havana they were being shot with
out mercy.
It was estimated that about fifty pa
triots, in various portions of the island,
had met this fats.
Meantime most extensive preparations
for the reception of the Tornado were
going forward iu Havana. The captain
and engineers were lauded to the skies,
and the admiration of their heroism and
valor was unbounded.
Subscriptions in their behalf met with
generous response everywhere, and the
paper* were circulated to the most dis
tant parts of the island.
Meantime the General of Marines, or
Admiral, addressed the people, saying
that the officers had onlydoue their duty,
and desired no public demonstration.
Thoy were paid for it by the navy, in
whose service these glorious deeds had
been a'couiplislied.
But tho people and press took different
grounds. The heroes had accomplished
achievements in behalf of the people.
They belonged to the people, and tho
people wore determined they should not
go unrewarded.
Tho following is an extract from a pri
vate letter received from Cuba, Monday:
"On the 6th instant, at 5 p. m , Captain
General Jouvellar telegraphed to Bur-
riel that the Spanish minister at Wash
ington advised him riot to shoot any
more men. Ho said this telegram was
received by Btirriel at Santiago de Cuba
early on the 8th. On the 10th he shot
the fifty-seven men.”
General Jouvellar says that he com
irehended tho necessity of saving the
ives of theso men, but was overruled.

cial crisis had deranged the whole busi

Tho Yirginius.
Kingston, Jamaica, November 10,
per steamer, via St. Mark.—Groat excite
ment prevails in Kingston over the cap
ture of tho steamer Yirginius, which left
this island with consular and custom
house clearances for Simon Bay, Costa
Rica. So far the circumstances and lo
cality of Virginius’ surrender, are not
actually known in Jamaica, as no tele
grams between this colony and Santiago,
relating to the subject have been per
mitted to pass out of the tclograph office
there. Wo only know through telegrams
from the Governor of Santiago, addressed
to the Spanish consul at Kingston, that
tho Virginius was captured on tho thirty-
first of October, and on tho 5th tho lead
ers of the expedition were shot. Every
effort to elicit facts through the cable
have proved abortive.
There was no concealment made of the
actual errand of the Virginius while here.
It was notorious that the officers had
dancing parties on board, and public meet
ings were held in honor of Cuban inde
pendence, at which the consignee of the
Virginias occupied tho chair. The steamer
was repaired while in port and coaled at
the expense of Cuban refugees.
The Virginius first attempted to effect
a landing on the 26th of October—three
days after she loft Kingston; was driven
off by the Spanish troops and chased by
a Spanish frigate, but she escaped and
reached Port au Prince on the 27th.
While there several of the Jamaica me
chanics, all colored, on board being
alarmed by tho chase, ran nway, bnt were
forcibly taken on board by the Virginius
officers and put in irons.

Tho British schooner Brilliant, which

Virginius Varona advised tho blowing up
of the vessel, rather than fall into the
hands of the Spaniards, but tho captain
persuaded him that, being under the
American flag and in neutral waters, they
would not dare tonch any man on board.
Varona and his followers thereupon be
came satisfied, and shortly after an
officer from the Tornado boarded the
Virginius and demanded her papers.
After inspection he stated that they
were corre-t, but he made all on boardpris-
oners. Varona replied that he surren
