The PEoPLEs FRIEND.
This letter b written as stated above. by
worthy and intelligent farmer in the vicinity from
which he writes. And in reply would ray, that
1ov; Moore has the power. At any time, to call
the Legislature together whenever he NAV think
the state of affairs require it. We are satis6ed.
unless some action is taken during the summer
ard tall, that thousands of poor people In Ala.
bama will actually starve. Thisis not from their
because our people are an industrious
people, they have all planted, but the drouth
has been so severe A. to destroy the little crops
and they have made nothing to feed their children
on. In fact, famine stares them in the face
This Is no overwrought picture, il one half what
We hear Is true, and We have every reason to be.
lievc it is. Had Governor Moore expended the
money he has in Connections for arms and muni-
tions OF war In Illinois for corn, and distributed
It to the poor families who are in state of star
vation, he would have been truly savior Of the
people and philanthropist; and really, we say
1t in oil candor, If Gov. Moore would buy corn
With the amount yet unexpended of the $2OO, 0OO
by the last Legislature to buy arms
10 kill people with, and distribute that corn to
the Probate Judges of the different counties Of
the State, for them to distribute to the poor and
needy, his name would 60 down to posterity 20
the greatest and best man of this age. Gov.
Moore is . man Of humane feeling, and is over.
and we believe if general petition
Of the people Of the several counties in the State
was made to him to do this, we believe he would
expend this money in this way. Because, If our
people starve there will be NO use for guns,
swords, cannon. nor munitions ofwar Of any kind.
