Cotton Crop to be burned.

--A large meeting of cotton and tobacco planters was held at the African Church last night, at which resolutions were adopted to memorialize Congress to buy the cotton and tobacco crops, and burn the same rather than they should fall into the hands of the enemy. Addresses were delivered by Dr. C. K. Marshall, of Miss; Hon. Mr. Moore, of Ky; Gen. Foote, of Tenn, and others. We are compelled to omit the resolutions, for want of room.
