measures to make the freedmen keep their contracts
for work. it is desired to raise even moderate crop
of cotton.
The Price Current says that the financial arrange

Freedmens Bureau to protect the great agricultural
interests Of the South this year. through the proper
enforcement of the labor contracts.
Should the cotton supply be small a material rise

Burning of the Steamer Asher Ayers
TerriIlIp Scenes.

The Savannah Republican OF the 18th contains a
detailed account of the burning fthe steamer Asher
Ayres, On the 9th instant, while proceeding down the
Altamaha river, from uaskinsvile to Savannah
with cargo Of l,O2O bales of cotton. The account
says:
The most strenuous exertiOns were made by the
captain and crew, who behaved mantuly, to subdue
the savage hames, which as they gained headway
roared leartuily around the doomed vessel, compel
ing all on board to jump into the river and face the
perlls OF the water or suffer the horrible fate
that awaited them. AS soon as it was discovered
that there were no hopes of saving the steamer the
passengers busted themselves in throwing overheard
bales OF cotton and then jumping into the river after
them,
In this way a great many lives were saved that
would otherwise would have been lost. As NAV well
be imagined, the took place as the flames leaned
from every part OF the vessel madly seeking dcs
ructon OF all on board, beggarS description. Moth
erS, frantic with despair sought some avenue Of es-
cape for their terrified children; devoted husbands
Dlanehed witt fear struggled to protect their horror
stricken wives, who their fright nothing but
death surrounding them. In a short time the panic
became general, and the scene beart-rending in
the extreme. At the point were the steamer took fire
the river Is very wide and surrounded both sides
Dy SWaInpy lands. rendering 1t exceeding dangerous
and difficult to land. So rapid the spread OF the
flames that not of the sixty passengers succeeded
IN saving any of their personal effects all deeming
themselves fortunate in escaping with their lives.
1t Is stated that the only boat board was seized
by the crew, who made good their escape and that
while the fire was IN progress the Wretches took ad
vantage of the general din and tumult to break omen
and rifle the trunks Of the passengers in many in
stances securing thousands of dollars from CARPET
bags and valises which were abandoned by their
owners, temporarily, while seeking an opportunity
to escape the flames.
The most terrible incident connected with this
fearful disaster Is the loss of life attending it. Ten
twelve perished, two colored men, deck hands, being
burnt to DEATH while eight ten others are supposed
to, have been drowned while attempting to swim
ashore.
