In Albemarle and Amelia counties, in Virginia, and Warren and Franklin counties, North Carolina, meetings have been held to arrange for carrying cut the plan suggested by the Secretary of War. In many other counties in both of these States meetings are about being held for the same purpose. In the Dan river country — the celebrated tobacco region of North Carolina--little or no tobacco is to be planted, and corn is to be put in every field. The county of Amelia, in this State, being applied to ascertain how much provisions she is able to let the Government have, has, in the short space of one week, handed in the following list, which will be largely increased ere it is completed, 1,429 pounds bacon, 1,130 barrels of corn, 2,500 bales of provender, and 93 barrels of flour.

ia, supposing that fifteen pounds to each person would be necessary.--Much would also be required for baling and rope, and for bedding purposes. It was our duty, he said, to furnish more cotton than we consumed, that other States of the Confederacy might be supplied. He gave date for the belief that only 150,000 bales would be raised this year in the whole Confederacy; Georgia 30,000, Alabama 20,000 Mississippi 20,000, Texas 20,000. Louisiana Arkansas 10,000. South Carolina 20,000 and North Carolina 10,000. Deducing 3,000,000 of persons in Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia, who would not require our cotton, there would be 9,000,000 persons left in the Confederacy to be clothed, who at fifteen pounds each, would consume 275,000 bales. To this add 40,000 bales for baling the crop, and for tents in the army, family bedding, &c., and there would be 315,000 required to answer these purposes against 150,000 bales, the entire cotton crop for 1863.
