DEsTIrrTIoN IN New YoRK.--Thc following start.
ling facts arc from AN appeal of the Five Point
Mission, for aid to the destitute.
1t is not deemed necessary at this time, to de-
scribe any cases of extreme suffering, as they exist
ut the Five Points and in many other places i'll the
Ward. 1t is we'll known tothose who are acquain-
ted with that locality, that hundreds of families
have sold or pawned the last article OF furniture or
apparel to procure food, and are now left on the
bare floor, without bedding or fuel, and not know
ing where they may get the next moutltul to eat.
Persons in these circumstances, (many Of them
sober and industrious people, are thronging the
Mission-houSs eaify,and from stern necessity many
are denied relief. This state of suffering is i'll
creasing daily, and the starting must Ge.tcd.
1t will require not less than one thousand loaves
of bread daily, to keep the destitute from suffering
with hunger.

writing from Kansas of the Wyandot Indians
says:
1.-THE Wyandots have determined to ask for a
treaty providing for a partition of their lands
among themselves to be held in scycralty, in
stead of the joint occupancy now existing among
them and all Indian tribes. They do not propose
to sell, having II body of the best land in Kansas,
and that considerably improved. They ask also
for q discontinuance of their annuities, and the
paymel.t of the principal of all their funds now
vested for their beneft-the amount to be distribu-
ted among them per capita, with the privilege
henceforward of managing their own affairs
They further ask to be received and recognized MS
citizens of the United States, with all the rights
and privileges of other citizens. A delegation of
six is selected to visit Washington for the purpose.
The demand is reasonable and just.
