To-day. the farm urn and their counsel lors and friends of tho cotton States meet in convention at Atlanta, to compare notes and devise some plan of action for the relief of the agricultural mooses of the country. Cheap transportation, direct commu nication with producers, without the in tervention and charges of middlemen, and the cash system, arc the grand ob jects sought to bu attained. Those are nil <>f prime importance, and will bu opposed only by those whose gains may lie affected by the proposed changes. The policy of direct shipments of cot ton to Europe, through the medium of their own agents, will probably be con sidered also. And here, again, even in the face of the proverb of tho shoemaker sticking to his lost, no ono can possibly object to the planter doing what he will with his own. Experience alone must determine whether this course will prove remunerative or not. But tbore is one grand consummation whidi comes fully within tho scope and purriew of the Granges, to which we ar dently hope they will devote their undi vided attention. It constitutes the key stone to the arch of Southern thrift and prosperity. Wo mean tho stern necessity imposed on the farmer to plant leu cot ton, and direct every energy to tho rais ing of provisions and fruits of all lands, and tho proper diversity of his market crops. This affords subject matter for the most current discussion among our planting friend*. We suppose the world oould hardly contain the books which might bo filled with the lu gubrious and painful experiences of tho husbandmen of tbe country, on this mo mentous theme. For lock of this system, our lands Lave deteriorated in vnlno or been alienated from their owners—skeleton horses and mules meet the eye on every side—mer chant liens hang like the sword of Damo cles over tho entiro planting community— fondly homesteads are rotting down, and every year gaunt famine threatens the land, llut if this grand States General of tho country, composed essentially of those who are the producers and consumers too, of tho material wealth and values of the naticn, will take tho matter in hand, who can estimate tho amount of good which may bo accomplished ? Thoroughly or ganised and linked together into ono brotherhood m tho grangers axe, by tho strongest ties, they can, and doubtless will oxerciso a powerful influence upon public sentiment in this particular. Wo never can cease to be hewers of wood and drawers of water for tho West and North until our people become really independent, by raising their own food, spinning their own clothing, and develop ing their own vast mineral resources. Why buy iron abroad when the ore crop* out in rich abundance from our bills ? Why patronise Lowell and other manu facturing establishments when we have magnificent water-power at home, and the raw material is tho product of our own soil? Why buy bread and meat from the West when com, rice, wheat, sugar, and even the fruits of the tropics, can be reared with so little labor in our fertile valleys and annny slopes?

This is the second or third case of a similar character, that has occurred in this section during tho last twelve or eighteen mouths, and it is about time that it should be stopped. A mother, or any body else, who will lock up little chil dren in a house where there is fire within their reach, and then go off and leave them to be thus roasted olive, is little else than an inhuman brute, not to gay a murderer of the meanest kind. On Saturday night last, abont 8 o’clock when our beautiful little Opera House was well filled by our citizens, to witness the performances of Doprez & Benedict's minstrels, and just after the opening overture, the cry of/re ! fire ! was made in all parts of the bouse. In an instant the entire audience sprang to their feet and a rush was made for the door. It was quickly discovered, however, that the cry of fire originated in the street, and that it was not the Opera House that was burning. The leader of the minstrels then stepped forward anil assured the au dience that there wns no fire in that build ing, and requested them to reseat them selves, which was done; but in another moment tho alarm was again given by some half dozen persons in the gallery, who desired to create alarm and confu sion, and again all was the wildest excite ment in the audience. Many of the gen tlemen then went out to ascertain where the fire was, and in a short while returned and reported that the Odd Fellows’ Hill had been on fire, but that the flames were now extinguished, and there was no further cause for alarm. This quieted the audience and the performances then went on without further interruption. This fire originated in a most fiendish attempt on the part of some incendiary to burn out Mrs. C. J. Pope’s extensive millinery establishment, under the Odd Fellows’ Hall; or, to fire this large fruoe building, with a view to burning the handsome row of stores nearly adjoining it on the south side, and owned by Mr. IV. N. Reeve*, in the hope of reaping a harvest of plunder, as it was a very dork night, rnd favorable for the work of vil lain*. Mrs. Pope's large and beautiful stock of fancy goods and millinery was almost totally destroyed by tho fire, or the streams of water thrown into tho building by the fire engines. The whole inside of the house was in fiamc3 wheu tho firemen opened upon it, but it took onr “glorious boys” only a few seconds to extinguish them. They deserve great praise for their skill and efficiency on this occasion, as they saved many thousands of dollars worth of property. Mrs. Pope was insured on her stock of goods for $5,000, but I doubt whether that amount will cover her loss. The building was also insured, and the Odd Fellows will lose nothing by the fire, Their lodge room was subjected to an in tense heat for a little while, and a deluge of water afterwards, injuring their fur niture, etc. A slight improvement in trade and money nutters characterized the last week in this market, but the pressure is still sorely felt. I never saw such a time for making collections of money. It seems tint everybody is short of funds, and nearly all call for time when bills are presented. It was my pleasure on Wednesday night last to witness the marriage of Mr. Edward J. Black, of tho RufauJa News, and Miss Nettie C. Williamson, one of Eufaula’s best and loveliest young ladies, and as I am not now in editorial harness, you must grant me the space to express l or the happy couple my best wishes for their future welfare and happiness. E. D. S. Eufaula, November 24,1S73. Dr. J. II. Jones Returned to Georgia —May be Consulted in Savannah. This celebrated physician, who spent the past winter in Macon and attracted so mnch attention by hi3 wonderful cures, after on absence of many months in Europe, during which ho visited the hospitals of Paris, and continued the study of his several specialties, has re turned to Georgia and taken apartments at the Pulaski House, in Savannah. Dr. Jones is no charlatan, but on the con trary has received diploma* from no less than four eminent colleges of surgery and medicine. He docs not profess to be cure all,” and is exceedingly candid in his advice to patients and the treat ment of their various diseases. Not un- frequently he refuses tho money of those who have sought him from a distance, when their cases have progressed too far for successful medical aid or old age pre sents an insuperable barrier to success. When the cure can be but partial or tem porary,he frankly states the fact to those who need his services. His visit to Georgia last winter will never be for gotten by those to whom he afforded hope, comfort and relief from distress ing and long-standing maladies. Besides all these diseases of tho eye and ear, requiring difficult and delicate surgical operations, and skillful treat ment otherwise, he is very successful also in curing affections of tho throat and lungs, kidney obstructions, ozena , and chronic complaints. Many of those who experienced benefit -from his services last spring, will be de lighted to know that tho Doctor is once more within reach, and doubtless will hasten to consult him again. For the present. Dr. Janes may bo vis ited or, addressed by letter, at the Pulas ki House, Savannah. War Gossip. The Courier-Journal, of Saturday; has the following in shape of special telegrams from Washington: Washington, November 21.—Tne sit uation to-night Is viewed In official circles as very serious, and involving more dan ger of war with Spain than at any former period. The sensational dispatch to a New York piq*"r, purporting to come from Madrid, is said to be greatlyexaggerated. and there is no question that the sum mary of the American demand is errone ously stated; but it is feared that the Spanish Cabinet will be forced, by public opinion ab home, into a position of deny ing a proper reparation to this Govern ment. At the same time, the Adminis tration disclaim any desire fora collision. WHAT A CABINET OKFICKR SAID. A Cabinet minister said this evening that •• whatever the people who are clam oring for war in the streets and the news papers may think. 1 can tell them that those who know most about it dread war the most.” The President, he said, was adverse to war. and dreaded its conse quences. He would exhaust all honorable means to maintain peace, and would re gard war a* a last resort. There were, however, things worse than war. It would not do to let the flag be insulted or our embassador be spurned. If it comes to war, Phil Sheridan could laud with ten thousand troops iu Cuba and hold the island. War .would result in annexa tion. whether we desired Cuba or not. ths naval preparations. The preparations of the Government, in view of the Cuban question, are going on with great rapidity. A consultation was held to-day at the naval department between the secretary and the different chiefs of bureaus, iu order to ascertain the precise condition of each branch of the service. The orders are for work both night and day at tho principal navy yards; and it is hoped that, by the time diplomatic remedies sliall be found una vailing, the navy foree of the country will be equal to any emergency the aemv. No increase of the army can, of course, take place without legislation by Con gress, but troops can be ordered and brought from the interior in three or four days. THE SPANISH FORCES. The amount of foreo Spain is able to exert has been an object of much interest, and the secret agents of the Government, both in Spain and Cuba, are engaged in investigating the military and naval pre parations of the Spanish Government. THE ACTION OF CONGRESS. Speculations as to the temper of Con gress upon the Cuban question are freely made. It is thought that the House of Representatives may bo disposed to push the Administration to extremity with Spain, but that tho Senate will be more moderate. Such leading senators as Morton, Sherman, Sehurz and Sumner are certainly anxious to have the diffi culty adjusted without war, and have so declared themselves. Mr. Sherman pro^ nounces tho Virginius cruise a filibuster ing expedition, which does- not deserve encouragement, and makes the point that tho country is in no condition to bear the expense of a war. Messrs. Conklin; Frelinghuysen, Edmunds and other Ad ministration Senators are also expected to act with the above ivuned, sustaining the Administration upon the question if it shall pur ue a pacific course with Spain. VIEWS OF A LEADING ADMINISTRATION SENATOR. A prominent Republican Senator, whose intimacy with the President and Cabinet is of the closest character, stated this evening that all the members of Congress he had talked to favored a moderate policy. He admitted that Castclar would Pave some difficulty in carrying out his policy. The late significant change of tone in certain New York journals, which has been very excited heretofore, was commented on, and especially the point that the Virginius was not legally enti tled to carry the American flag. He said that question ought to have been consid ered in tho first instance. Tlio Senator also said that question was a subject emi nently lit for the principle of arbitration, to which the Government was committed, and whieh had been so popular in the settlement of the Alabama claims. A PROMINENT OPPOSITION SENATOR. A prominent opposition Senator re marked to day that ho did not see why the opposition should seek to have a war, as it wa3 the only thing to call off the at tention from the failure of the Govern ment’s financial policy; and a leading Democratic member of the House of Rep resentatives stated that he should say to the Republicans that they had two-thirds majority, and must take the responsibil ity of settling the matter. If they chose war, the Democracy in Congress would vote the necessary men and money. SOUTHERN OPINION CONFLICTING. Conflicting opinions in tho South on the Cuban question, some for opposing any complication, as adding to the heavy taxation, and others indifferent, and some favoring a vigorous policy as a means of uniting tho country. Notwithstanding the tone of some of tho Virginia papers, a gentleman just arrived from that State reports that the majority of tho people 88881 Hie suin' BY TELEGRAPH. DAM DISPATCHES.

Statistics in regard to the population and resources of Cuba are now in order. The total population of the island is somewhat less than a million and a half. Of these upward of seven hundred thou sand, or pretty nearly half, are of pure European stock, of whom one-sixth only is composed of Spaniards from Europe. The slaves amount in all to three hun dred and seventy thousand, or less than a fourth of the whole population. The remainder consists of free persons of color and a comparatively small number of coolies and Chinese. More than half the labor of the island is that of free white men. Misgoverned and oppressed as it has been, the wonderful wealth of Cuba is il lustrated by the fact that the average yearly total of the import and export trade is estimated at one hundred and thirty million dollars. In 1869 her im ports were forty-three and a half million dollars, and her exports fifty-seven mil lions. In 1870, despite the war, her sugar and tobacco crop were valued at $75,000,- 000 gold, and the amount of capital rep resented in the production of these two articles of exports was computed at .£200,- 000,000, or $1,000,000,000. Voorhees on tbe Situation. Hon. D. W. Voorhees, of Indiana, has announced his intention to retire bom politics, saying that on tho new questions to arise new men will be needed. In a conversation recently he made the fol lowing statement: “I have made my last political speech before the people, and I *)m glad of it. The pleasure of pursuing my private concerns as a citizen 13 ex ceedingly grateful to my feelings, more so you i**is conceive. I went early into politics. I might have been elected to Congress at twenty-four; had my age allowed I should have been. I have been nine years at Washington, and know all about it- I have fought my bottles as I conceived to be tight But all tho old issues have passed away, and henceforth new ones will arise. And upon the new questions a new set of men will be de manded by the people. Some old politi cians try to force themselves into notice after their day has gone by, but it is very Parties will be changed in ef fect, but not in name, perhaps- The Democratic party will liberalize its or- ; and if it is done wisely, so ite the elements of distinction present order, they mav be ablo ~ “ The name need not The Asbantco War. As a large number of cautious English men anticipated, the task assigned Sir Garnet Wolseley of subduing tho Ashan- tees proves to be no small undertaking, even for John Bull. Tho latest tidings from the seat of war are to tho effect that Sir Garnet’s offer of peace on cer tain conditions was indignantly spurned by King Koffee, who announced his in tention to vanquish the Englishmen or die in the attempt. Reinforcements to the number of ten thousand men have come to the assistance of the Aehantees, and they appear to be highly elated at the prospect. They thoroughly under stand the art of war, and are as brave as they are bloodthirsty. Meanwhile Sir Garnet has been having a big talk with the Fan tee chiefs, whom he endeavored to persuade to work hard and fight hard. He told them the war was for them, and they must do the work. King Koffee is said to have about 18,000 warriors, in three separate corps. General AVolseley’s plan is to get all the road-building and heavy work out of the natives possible, in order to save the health of his British troop* in that enervating climate, and finally, when everything is ready, to throw the latter forward and do up the business with os little exposure to them as passible. Meantime the Ashantees have agents at Birmingham having mus kets at $1 87 apiece, and the Englishmen will at least have the consolation that if they get killed it will be with British bullets shot out of British markets. Tho Supremo Court. Washington, November 24.—In tbe case of the United States against Lapin and others, tho Supreme Court to-day decided that when a party advanced funds to a firm in New Orleans, to he used by their agent in the interior in th9 purchase of cotton, prior to the capture of the city in 1S62, all tho parties being then in New Orleans, and the city was captured by the Federal forces before the cotton was purchased with the funds so advanced, the agent having gone into the interior prior to the capture, his agency to purchase the cotton was terminated by the hostile position of bis principals to ward tho cotton owners, consequent upon the capture, and that a purchase of cot ton afterwards was an effectual aid to the enemy, it was forbidden by the soundest principles of public law. Tho purchaser therefore obtained no title to the cotton, and had no claim against the Govern ment for its capture. Mr. Justice Hunt delivered the opinion. Justices Miller and Field dissenting. Richardson issues the following depart ment instructions of the 27th ult.: In reference to the limited disbursements of silver coin in lieu of currency, they are hereby so modified that hereafter, in making disbursements, silver coin bo paid only in the fractional parts of a dollar. Hr. Stephens in Washington. Washington, November 24.—Hon. A. H. Stephens arrived here to-night, to take his scat in the House of Representa tives Monday.

London, November 24.—The Spanish press complain that tho enemies of Spain telegraph false news to the United States. A Denial from Sickles. Tlie agent of the Associated Press here is authorized by Minister Sickles to say that there is no foundation for tho report published in New York on the 21st to the effect that Sickles had broken off social relations with the foreign minister, and that ho expressed the opinion that war is inevitable. The agent is authorized to state there is no foundation wliatovor for tho dispatch; that the official and per sonal relations between Minister Sickles and the Spanish officials are unchanged, and that Sickles has not expressed any opinion as to tho result of tho pending question. Movements of Naval Officers. Havana, November 24.—Tho British gunboat Woodlark arrived at Santiago do Cuba on tlie ISth, anil on tho following day the ship of war Danae, with Commo dore Dehorsey, senior officer at Jamaica on board, arrived from Port Royal.
