If they hnvo only so apportioned their crops as to have plenty to eat for man andl)ea*t and not too much cotton, the year’s operations will no donbt result in the deoided improvement of tho condition of most of them. —Tho Opelika Times understands that the Radicals have determined upon the 19th of August as the time of holding their Congressional and Judicial Nomina ting Convention for the Third district; also, that Heyman, McCraw and Pelham will enter the race for the Congressional nomination, while Patterson and Strauge (the present judge) will sock the judicial nomination. —Tho Montgomery Advertiser says of the crop prospect: “The wheat crop of Alabama will bo umoh larger than for >$ears past. This is the testimony ,11 our &tate exchanges. The oorn crop is doing well. So we have reason to think that a bread supply will be made this year. Ootton is still small, and at least one-third less planted than last year. A full crop, therefore, i»impossible.” WASHINGTON. CONGRESSIONAL.

PRECIOUS SCOUNDRELISM Better Counsels Prevailing — The President Refuses the Request of “Rods** to Send Troops to Virginia. Washington, June 12.—Representatives Platt and Stowell to-day oalled on the President, and requested troops to be sent to Petersburg, Va., for the protection of cert dn officers, whose lives, they allege, wore in danger. On hearing of this, the remainder of the Virginia delegation, with the exception of Thomas, united iu a request to the President that be would not order soldiers to Petersburg, as they believed that, un der the Marshal and District Attorney, t he laws of the country would be enforced; and if any one has committed an oifeu ce, he wili be punished. Ordering so’diers there, at this time, would injure their State and do no earl hly good to auy one. Tho President declined to interfere in the matter. Waskinfftou Notes. Windom's committee on tram-port*tion had no quorum to-day, the members be- iug engaged on other committees. 'The Louisiana delegation, consequently, i.ere not heard on the Fort St. Phillips cs mil. Tho Committee of Ways and Means object to nearly all the new features in serted by the Senate in the Moities bill. No Southern nominations or conffirma- tious to-day. A Young: Lady Burned to Dentb.

Physicians report that she is dying. TIIE WEATHER. ~ Department or War, \ Washington, June 12, 1874.) Probabilities.—For the South Atlantic and Gulf States, partially cloudy weather, some rain, and winds to south and south west. Prospects of Civil War and the Tri umph or Ihe BonapartlsU-Gam- betta Btiack In tho Poce. London, June 12.—A dispatch from Paris to the Times says that the Left Cen tro to-day will probably introduce a bill, tbe first clause of which will provide for the organization of the republic aocording to tho bill of 1873 ; the second fixes the date of dissolution of tbe present assem bly. The Gazette De France says oivil war will be immediate in oonsequeuee of the dissolution of tbe Assembly. It is gener ally thought that in the event of a disso lution, the Assembly before dispersing, will authorize President MacMahon to govern some months, probably a year, without au Assembly, and will also au thorize him to dissolve the next Assem bly. The crowd at tho depot Thursday eve ning numbered 10,000 persons, who clearly manifested sympathy with the Bonapartists. Paris, June 12.—A large and exoited crowd assembled at the Western depot to day at the time for tbe departure of tbe Deputies for Versailles. Gambetta was greeted wilh obeers and hisses. Tbe po lice attempted to disperse the throng, handling them roughly in some instances. M. Lefevre, Deputy of the Left, was ar rested, but subsequently released. A tumult arose, and Gambetta was again insulted. The police cleared the railway station and ooaupied it the eutire after noon. Iu the Assembly, M. Baze demanded an enquiry into these riotous proceedings, which the Government promised to insti tute on the return of the Deputies to Ver sailles. A Count struck Gambetta across tbe face with a stick, for which he was prompt ly arrested. During this afternoon the excitement among the members became intense, and parliamentary business was much im peded. The Municipal Council of Bordeaux has been suspended, for having permitted a public demonstration of hostility to the Government. Gambetta .Struck bjr Count St. Croix. Paris, June 12.—Count St. Croix, upon his arrest last evening for striking Gam betta, told the police that the object of tbe assault was to provoke a duel. The Count was formerly an officer of Zouaves of the Imperial Guard. Gambetta’s face yet bears the mark of the blow given him. Several persons iu addition to the Count wore arrested by the police at the railroad station at tbe time of tho tumult. Tbe Deputies Insulted by tbe People. Paris, June 12.—Tbe scones of yester day were literally repeated at the western depot to-day at the time of the departure of the parliamentary train for Versailles. The populace again assembled in large numbers, and tbe Deputies to the Assem- ,bly were repeatedly insulted and cheered. The troops were ordered to the station to assist the police to keep order. ENGLAND. Flours on tbe Cuba-Flrglnlus Affair. London, June 12.—The paper laid be fore the British Parliament in regard to the Virginia affair was a letter, dated February 20tb, from Granville to the Brit ish Minister at Madrid, saving that Her Majesty’s Government do not take tbe ground of complaining of the seizure of the Virginius, nor of the detention of her passengers and crew. The real ground of the complaint of Her Majesty’s Govern ment bolds that even assuming the vessel to have been lawfully seized and the crew properly detained, there was no justifica tion for their summary execution, after irrgular proceedings before a drum-head court martial. No possible aspect of tbe character of the Virginius and her crew could authorize or palliate such conduct on the part of the Cuban authorities. There was no pretense for treating such an expedition as piracy, jure gentium. CUBA. Four Insurgent Colonels Captured. Havana, June 12.—Tbe Insurgent Co lonels Betaucaurt, Jenunez and Rogas were captured in the Bay of Jiguey. They were passengers on the Bark from New York, which vessel they left in the Babamia channel io a boat. They brought correspondence and commis3ious to tho Iusurgects which were thrown overbourd before their capture. They refused to confess the nature of their commission. SPAIN. Prospect of Battle. London, Juno 12.—A special to the Times from Hpiiiu snys Gen. Concha and staff have loft Lngiouo for Tudela, and 80,()()() Nutiouul tioops arc inarching to the Ainezcoas valley. The Carlist army, under command of Darregory, numbers 24,000. KELLOGG'S CLIQUE HIRES AN ASSASSIN TO KILL THE ENQUIRER-SUN COR RESPONDENT. THEY FEAR EXPOSURE. Special to the Enquibbr-Sus.

The undersigned proposes to publish, in a volume of 150 or more pages, a work under the above title, covering the period from the selection of the locality for a “ trading town,*\ in 1827, to the capture and partial destruction of the city by the Wilson Paid, in 1863. The incidents will be derived mainly from its newspapers, which will be gleaned for this purpose wilh much care. R is believed that most of our citizens would like to have such incidents in this compact and convenient form, and will encourage the undertaking to the extent of the small amount asked for the work. Each chapter will contain short biographic cal sketches or notices of the principal citizens mentioned in it, who have since died. The volume will also embrace full information concerning the churches, factories, &c„ now existing. We do not propose to publish this compila tion with a view to making money, as the small price asked for it will show. But at the same time we do not want to lose money by its publication, and therefore we wish to limit the number cf copies printed to the de mand for the work. With this object in view, 10c issue this prospectus, inviting those who desire copies of the volume to send in their names. The price will be one dollar per copy for a pamphlet bound volume, printed on paper like the specimen sheet issued. A small number of copies will also be issued on a su perior article of paper for $1 30 per copy. Payable when the work is delivered, which will be some time next Fall. TIIOS. GILBERT. May 12, 1874.'
