The. second and third floors of lMvis llopen '& ' Go.'s wholesale Grocery Store, Pe-' lersburg,' gave way last Satur day, which resulted in the loss of about one hundred barrlsN of flour besides the. damage to the building: Sev eral people were' hurt but none killed. f ! ' ' Stokes, the murderer of James Fisk.has been denied a trial, TttE MO DOCS. Tjie last advices from tbe , seat of war tell us that the. Modocs have left th.e Lava Beds, and have taken a stand in'the Goose Lake Country. For years, these people have been A terror to the frontier settlers by reason of the con tinued ill faith shown them by the .Federal Peace Commis sioners. They have repeated ly butchered' helpless women and children, ana no measures' were taken' to. prevent it ex cept to send out Govern ment officials, who drew heavy salaries and effected no good. NoW.j since the killing of Gen. Cauby, the G over nine n t, imme diately orders extqrinination to the bitter end. It sends out several thousand arined men to lull a : mere hjandful of Modoc 'Indians ; but thus far the indians have whipped them, and spread terror in the Yankee camp. They have' now lelt the Lava Beds and will pursue a guerilla warfare. The result of which will most probably be the extermina tion ot their, tribe at;a cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars to the United States Government. . . Since writing thp above a dispatGh chronicles 'another light. Thirty-three Modocs attacked the Federal camp, i i -i i killea ana Ayounaea seven men. One Modoc was killed. On the field Captain Jack sat in his saddle in as lordly a manner as a Brigadier Gener al, - in the Uniform of the dead Canby. The Federal scouts wear petticoats. MO DO CI ANA, .. Jlead what some of coir Yif- ginia cotemporaries say about the Modocs. - 'l' The Warrenton, Va., Index says : "If Gen. Canby while presiding in 'Dis trict Np. 1. had treated the Ifona fida people or Virginia with the tender con sideration that he displayed, towards the Modocs, wc could have tied a piece of crape dn our left arm when Captain Jack, put his hair in ins belt, and bad a profound respect for his memory.' T,he NcW'olk Virginian gets off the following: !: ."' ,' New Plan to FipHT.TUE. Mqi)Q03 J. FeDnimore Cooudr is olir authority for btatiog that the; noble t red man is not anxious to kill his enemv unless he can secure the scalp, as a sort of vouch er for the actJ as no killing is admit ted to record without the production of that article.

In other words we want them to send out young men who are barelooted on the head Should the suggestion meet with an proval, we reserve the right, ias-the originator of the sQ;heme, to nominate the officers.

'jV ; : THE COTTOX TRADE. -' The Situation and the Prospect, ' :vv New York' Bulletin, - I The future of this , Btaple is a matter of grett moment, not only to the cot" ton trade, but also to the community al lafge; and whether the' crop is sold at an average prie -of say 20 qents or 15cent', is a matter of considerable imrtortaofe to every interest ot the country. That the crop now being marketed U a large one there is do doubt. The estimates at the South rane. between 3t750jDOO bales and 3,850.000 bales, while at the North thej vary:: between 3 8,00,000 and 4,000,000 bales. We always look to the South for the lowest estimate and to the North for tueigliest, arid pjrobably the truth . may Hie somewhere between these ex tremes j The statistical position of the crorr s(o d at the clone. tf week before Bt s follows : The actual receipts of cotton at all the ports since September 1st have been 3.201,779 bales, aeainst 2 545 622 corresponding time last year, showing as increase' of 656.157 baits. The receipts at the interior towps for the same time have been' 826,549 bales, against 738,592 same r time- last year, showing an increase o 87,957 bales I he stocks at all the ports are 454,- 846 bales, against 296.695 same dav last year, showing an increase of 158,- 154 bales: and stocks at the interior towns .84,141 bales, against 39,130 in 1872, showing an incxiease tbis year of 4d,Ull bales; taken together, the stoeks at tne ports and . the interior show 5ci,- yyu bales against -35,825 same time last year, giving an increase this year . over last of .203,165 : bales . In Com paring these stocks, wc must not over look the fact that planters and those' interested in advance 6f the staple, are holding, as far as in thair power, their cotton on the plantations, where it dotB not show in the counts taken of stock! ' The exports, althQ,igh large are not id proportion to the They have been.- since increase supply. September 1st, 2,106,553 bales,, against l,747il89 last year, when (he -exports for the entire cotton year weie J. 957, 214 bales. The amount of . American potton afloat for Great Britain is 226,000 bales, against 202,000 last year at game time. The stock of American cottou in Liverpool is 313,000 bales, against 310 970 bales same time last year. The Liverpool movement shows an evident indisposition to load up with' American cotton. That indisposition, however, may be quite as much the result of the general depression of the cotton trade as of a want cf confidence in the future value of our staple. It is not unnatural, considering the present condition or manuta.cturing attairs in England, that JLiverpool should keep a very cautious lookout upon the proba ble volume of the crop of J72, and the; prospects of the one just planted ; and the trade ol tbt port may reasonably be expected tp f ssunie an attitude in favor of lower prices, It is, of course, too early yet to form any despite opinion about the prpba- bilities of the new crop. We lvave taken measures for collecting all the fac at present osoertainable on this point, aud shall soon.l lay them before ourreaders. In the meantime it may be aafely affirmed, 1, That the acreage planted with cotton this year is mate rially larger than that of last year ; 2, That, generally throughout the South, there has been an increased use of cot ton fertil zers, the consumption, appar ently, having been beyond all preced ent : 6, That the weather has been, on the whole, favorable to getting in the crop in good condition ; 4, That since the planting, the weather . has been too cold, but the plant has hot been suflici ently up to. sustain .any serious coose quent injury: and, 5, That the supply of labor is, on the whole, adequate to the needs ot planters. Up to this pointj therefore, the pro babilities point an increased crop, as suming average conditions as to weather, worms, labor, etc.: and an augmented crop has always proved to imply lower prices. 1 he folio ing table (taken irom Our Annual for tha year 1872) fully illustrates this point. !
