WoRTH INvEsTIGArISG.-We have heard,
from various qpaSteFs, the report that Gen.
Toombs, who is in Cuba, has written letter,
in which he states that he had met one of his
former slaves in Havana, and that this negro
told him he had been inveigled in Cuba, and
sold to Cuban stakeholder for $1,000. We
learn also that worthy minister, who hos
charge Of church ia our neighborhood, but
is now in Havana, has written letter stating
that he met there several of the former slaves
of Gen. Hammond, of Beech Island. They
were kidnapped from Augusta, and are now
in state of slavery. The information comes
to us so directly that we have no doubt of its
truth. 1t is demanded, by the honor of the
Government of the United States, which pro
claimed these men to be free, and undertook
their protection, that they shall be delivered
from their enforced bondage, and that those
who have sent them away should be called tc
= strict account. The informationneeded Car

CorroS LANDS GoIHG BACK TO WILDER
srss.-A correspondent of the Mobile Adrer
tiser, upon whose judgment the editor relies,
gives gloomy picture of the future. lie
says: 4,
@lghat are the facts in regard to general
cultivation of cotton, and return OF negroes
to field labor? A large proportion of the
field hands are dead. Another large number
have left the cotton growing States. The
cotton producing lands in the bottoms will
not be in cultivatioa-this year nor the next ;
to great degree they ore going back into
tho Wilderness. In no part Of the country is
large proportion Of the lands likely to DO
planted in cotton much, even of the uplands
in Alabama and Mississippi, will not be
planted at all. A great number OF the ne
p,oes arc about tue towns and villages, with
no sort of intention Of returning to the plan
tations. Another, fact known only to those
who are making the effort to make cotton un-
der the present aspects, is, the general oppo-
sition of the negro women to field labor. The
more sensible of the men see and feel the
necessity of labor in the cotton field, but
there is settled opposition on the part Of the
women to 90 into the field again. They want
to 20 into society and have a piano. The
women arc the min cotton-pickers.
When the negroes made contracts Il
make cotton, it was very cold and wet, thcl
had no houses to live in; no provisions t.
live on they were disappointed about th'
division of lands and mules. They said, well
if we have to work, we might as we'll make {
contract. They were to great degree com
peled to make an engagement to work. Blu
when the pressure Of work in the heat of th'
spring and summer comes on, will he perform

LA.-A WHOLE FAMILY KiLLap.-A tetnble
affair occurred last Saturday, on Felicity is
land, in this Parish. AZ far as ne can learn.
the circumstances are as follows; - -
/ seems the island had been rented to a
man named McDonald, who, with bis vile
aud son, ttbc latter young m .n) lived ON
the island. Another man, by tie name of
Bourg, took the liberty Of s9uatting on the
island, and was repeatedly ordered off by
Mcdonald, but refused togo. The conse-
qucnce was continual war between the two
families. On last Saturday, Mcdonald his
wife and son, and negromau, who, it seems,
was in the employ of Mcdonald, went to the
house Of Bonrs, all armed. What. their in
teutions were does not appear clear, nor have
we been able to get the particulars Of the
fight that epsucd, but tho result is trarical,
to say theleast Mcdonald, his wife and SON
were killed and the negro slightly wounded.
Bourg has been arrested, and will of course
bo held 70 appear for trial before the District
Court; that is, il We ever have any court
again.-Louisiana Paper. - 80

Let us love whilo ifo is given,
For we cannot toll its length;

It may snatch as in our strength.
Let US love! oh, fully, freely,

Washing every stain Of anger,
From each bosom, all away.
Let rs work in work aud action;
No. alone in word and thought;
Timc is swiftly, lurely passing,
Hars NO on Its passage wrought
Some kind act, soms silont blessing,
Prompted By loving heart,
Daily, With An earnest purpose,
Choosing thus bettsr part!
Lot us love! oh, lore will lighton
Every burden or complaint;
1t will strengthen weary footsteps,
It will Ghaer tho sad and faint.
Let US love give out the sunlight
On tho durkened ways Of lifo,
Lotits sweet rays melt the hardness,
And subdas the wrong and strife.
Let as love! oh, lore will hallo1

Give it frooly, give it fully,
It is needed everywhere.
Let us love while life is given,
For We cannot toll it5 length,

Gen. Sherman on the Burning of
Columbia. 8. C..

The following is the letter of Maj. Gen.
Sherman, on the burning of Columbia, an
abstract Of which has already been given in
our columns. 1t will be seen that he is op-
posed to the payment ot.Southern war claims
of even the most worthy character, though
he expresses sympathy for those who sus
tanned losses:
H'poRs Mn. DIV. OF THE MISS,
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, March 8, 1856.
Bey. RasOls, Columbia, S. c.
DEAR Sir: have your letter enclosing q
petition to the Congress of the United States,
asking to be indemnifed for the loss by fire
Of your house and contents, at the time Of
our occupation in February, 1865. I assure
you that feel deeply for you and all others
who lost their property in the FIRE; but if the
United States were to assume the liability, it
would be an admission that we had done
wrong. This is not true.
The rightful authority of the National
Government had been resisted in the State
of South Carolina for years, and we were
compelled, at great cost of life and money,
to conduct thither vast army, and our pro-
grers was resisted by: all the force the State
could obtain. Your own citizens resisted our
approach, not only with arms, but by burning
the bridges over the Edisto, Congarce, Salnda
and Broad Rivers. They burned the depot
in Columbia before We entered the city, be-
cause it contained corn and stores they sup
posed VIC needed, and set FIRE to Thousands of
bales of cotton rolled out into the streets, and
which were burning before VIC entered the
city of Columbia. myself was in the city
as early rs noon, and saw those fires, and
know that efforts we're made to extiuguish
them, but high and strong wind kept them
alive. gave no orders for the burning Of
your city, but, on the contrary, tie reverse,
and believe the cosAagratinn resulted frum
the great imprudence Of cutting the cotton
bales, whereby the contents were spresd by
tho Winds so that it BECAME an impossiblity
to arrest the fire.
l saw in your Columbia newspapers the
printed order of General Wade Hampton,
that on the approach of the Yankee armr, all
the cotton should be burned, aud, from wha'
I saw myself, have. no hesitation in saying
that he was the cause of the destruction Of
your property. Your true remedy is against
him, and such others of your own citizens as
conspired with him and made the military
occu patton oil your city gu absolute necessity.
hardly think it is fair that Congress ehonld
lax the people of Ohio, Illinois and Missouri
TO pay such losses; but as it is not in my
province to judge in such matters, send
your petition according to its address.
ASSURE you Of my personal sympathy by
reason oi your ago and iufrmity, but this
must not lead ME to endorse awrong principle.
1 ain, with great respect, your obedient
seryant,
