The Slate Tiepartmcnt has received olllclnl dispatches endorsing tho text o{ Slokles' fa moiiB note to thc Spanish Government, con? cerning the purport of which there has been so Irnich speculation of late lu tho newspapers. The document prove3 to bo quite as threat? ening in Its character as lt was asserted to bc In the cable frlegrain. It declares that the Spanish cause in Cuba ls hopeless ; that the Spanish treasury ls depleted ; Hint thc time 1B 'Close at bond when the Government of thc United States must succumb to popular opin? ion here and recognize the independence ol Cuba. * ? Minister Sickles adds that the pending policy 1B an offer of negotiation with a view to ascer? taining thc real wishes of tho Cuban DOOP''* to whether they desire Independence, annexa? tion to thc Union, or to remain a Spanish de - pendency. This government, he Bays, 1B wil? ling to purchase Cuba for a sum of money to bc hereafter agreed upon, and he claims to bc instructed by President Grant to insist that Spain muBt prosecute thc war on a humane basis. He concludes hlB note by saying: "I have written frankly, as a soldier should write to a military power." Prominent Northern Republicans write that Secretary Boutwcll ls strenuously opposing the proscriptive policy of the administration to? wards Dcm and Hamilton, tho 'Conservative candidates for Governor In Mississippi nnd Texas. He urgos that this policy, If persisted in, will infallibly grve the Democracy the con? trol of thc entire-South at no distant day.

Tho Corni tt ion or the Crop?-Tho Pro? bable Yield of Corn, Cotton and Rice Manning "Wide-A waite-CountryJPoll tlcs. [I'lluM OUR OWN COKRESrONDKNT.] MANNTNU, S. C., September,27. Tlie weather or late hus been somewhat fickle; within the last ten days wc have had warm weather and heavy rains, bright and clear but cold weather, and now thc sun has withdrawn his bright smiles, and we have clouds supcradded to tlie cool weather. The farmers are bimy gathering their crops. Cotton will fall short of last year's crop in tills county at least one-fourth, owing mainly :o the cool weatiier corly in the spri.nr. ano. tao protracted drought In thc summer. Tho cater? pillars have infested ti?e cotton fields to a considerable cxtenr. out they began their de? predations too .atc to lessen tho yield mate? rially. Tue yield ot corn this year ls much era than last year, and on an average about a half crop will bo harvested. Tho rice, pea and potato crops may bc estimated at less than thc above figures, and an estimate of one-fourth the crop of these productions com? pared with last year's crop would not be Air short of the facts, and this decrease is trace? able to the drought In August last, and tho . ~~U-- - mt U.. ?M??*a* ?nontlv. Hol wltlistanding these discouragements, the farm? ers aro hopeful, and will soon bo making (nu? gent preparations for another year. More cotton lias been bought nod sold In Manning this year, thus far, than usual, and our merchants pay as good prices as Sumter offers; previous to tills year the latter placed hos generally held out-greater Inducements to sellers than thc former. Business herc Is quite active, but I cannot chronicle anything new In the way of Improvements. If the Cen? tral Railroad should bo a success, lt will give a great impetus to enterprise and Improve? ment, and Manning will shake off her appa? rent lethargy. Politics in our county, metaphorically speak? ing, aro asleep, and Sambo and Cuffee have but little in the way of opposition to arouse their patriotism to fever heat. Tho blacks hold meetings occasionally, say every other Saturday, but what for, aud what they say or do, is unknown to the respectable portion of the whites. Prominent among the speakers at these meetings aro William Nelson, (very black) representative from the county, -and Powell Smythe, (mulatto) chairman, of -the board of school -commissioners. It ls -said that tba latter will be brought out at the'-ncxt election HST senator against Ellas E. Dickson, the present incumbent. As both are Radicals, there ls but little choice between them. -Dick? son being a white native Radical ls more de? tested by -thc -respectable white people . limn fbe<s>tber.

Besides these there aro numerous others whoso names arc rumor? ed In connection with to-day's failures, but no reliable information can bo gathered in regard to the same. There appeared to be ? some? what hotter feeling on* the Stock Exchange this morning, when business commenced, as lt was noticed that outside capitalists Wera coming In and buying stocks at low prices; but when tlie above failures were announced, the market broke, and down went New York Cen? tral from 163 to 147, where, at this writing, lt ls trying very hard to come un again.
