A planter, writing to the New York
WoTld, but who does not state whether
he plants North or south, East or West,
gives it as his opinion that the present
crop viii foot up 3,JOO,OOO bales, and ar
CUES as follows:
In 1859, say that there was the same
acreage planted a. in ls67-it is generally
admitted there was an increase claim
5 per cent. advantage for the more pros
porous condition Of the planting interest,
the better organization Of the labor after
two years Of additional experience ia
managing free negroes. the very large
amounts of fertilizers used. and the i'm
proved political condition Of the country.
j claim. also, 10 per cent. as the difference
in the growing seasons Of the two wears:
one being, probably the worst in the
memory Of man, the other probably one
On the best. Nineteen out Of twenty men
who planted both years viii say there
was more than ten per cent. in favor Of
Isfl. There was an increase of 500, 600
bales ia 1883 from 1875, caused mainly BY
a good and bad season. And lastly, /
claim 3 per cent. increase in 1869 on ac-
count Of D. pretty general exemption
from caUerpillars. ! thlnk -four States
could be named that would make up this
amount. In all / claim 70 per cent. in
crease, estimating the crop at 10000
bales. This estimate is borne out by the
receipts up to the present time. The
great decline in 1867 kept back the re-
ceipts. 80 that We Will take last year to
compare with. On the 10Th Of December,
lust one-third of the crop had been re-
ceived 40 the ports; a larger proportion
than had ever been received before, n
as large in amount as in 1857, on a crop Of
over three millions. Now, on the 10th Of
December this year II 50 happens hat We
nave received a fraction over n million
OF bales, or say one-third Of the crop.
For the benefit Of the writer in the
WOrld, we viii simply say that on the
10th Of December, 1868, there was more
cotton sta 1ding open in the fields Of the
South than there was sltogether-open, in
press, g~in-houses and "held back"-at the
same date this year.

Enga cement near BaRa-The Spaniards Forced
back NueYitas

back ON Nueyitas.
HAVANA, July IL, via Key West, July IA
General Poello, at the head of 800 Spanish ma
rines, was attacked by force of patriots near
Baga, a small town situated on the same bay as
Nuevitas, and not far from that city.
The marines were forced to fall back upon
Nuevitas, with loss of eighty, including Gene
raj Poello, killed.
Cholera Diminishing-Th VomitO Succeeds
Particulars of the Fight at BRyumO-NIove-
ments of General Jordan.
HAVANA, July 13, via Key West, July 15.-
Advices from Nuevitas to the 10th report that
the cholera was diminishing, but that the yomito
had appeared among the troops.
According to the new organization of the
patriot forces, there are to be only two major
generals in the army, of whom General Jordan
is one and holds command of the entire Eastern
or Bayamo department, while General Ignacio
Agramonte is the other in command of the Cen
tral department.
The Spaniards are endeavoring to ignore the
manner in which their detachment of soldiers
was recently captured at Sabana Nueva. 1t is
rumored that General Quesada has ordered the
officers shot in retaliation for the execution of
patriot prisoners.
Further particulars of the fight near Baga
have been received. The Spanish force num-
bered 500 marines, who we're surprised by 20
insurgents under Francisco Castillo, ambuscaded
behind palm groves. Both sides sustained
spirited fire for half an hour The marines,
being afraid of the machetes carried by the
Cubans refused to obey an order to charge
bayonets, and the insurgents, despite the supe-
rior numbers of the enemy, retired across an
open field in perfect ORDER firing in full view OF
the Spaniards and inficting severe loss upon
them. But one patriot was wounded. The ma
rines fell back to Nuevitas, so exhausted by the
effects of the climate that many were carried
into the city on stretchers.
General Letona has ordered Lieutenant Medina
to be shot at Puerto Principe.
In the woods surrounding Puerto Principe
thousands of insurgents are concentrating, and
are only waiting to be armed with the Peabody
breech-loading rifles, with bayonet, to assume
offensive operations. Tinker () is alive. Hold
uuin one of the insurgent leaders, intends to go
to the United States for the purpose of bringing
back a force of Americans.
Intelligence from Santiago de Cuba TO the Sth
inst. reports fighting going on at point thirty
miles distant from that city. The parties were
strongly entrenched. Major-General Jordan
had ioined the Cubans under General Figuereda,
and now commands large force. The Gov
ernor of Baracoa was actively engaged in burn
ing property and killing all who fell into his
hands.
