certain what il she extent and severity
of the destituion y thr South, and the
most equitable and safest methods Of
distributing supplies. The result Of
their inquiries, with respect to the dcs-
titutiOn, Is thal there are st least $780,
600 in Alabama. Georgia, South and
North Carolina, so much in need Of pro-
visions that many Of them must perish
unless relief be given them from the
North.
But this is not all. Another class Of
sufferers are the planters and farmers,
who, while not now wholly destitute Of
food, will not be able to provide the
seed and labor for another harvest with
ont Northern helm. So great are the ne
cessities Of the four States named in
both these respects, that 5000 bushels
Of corn would not more than meet the
imperative wants Of the people, over and
above all that they can provide for them
selves.
The commission are anxious 10 do all
in their power toward supplying this
great lack aud after prolonged consult
alton with Maj Gen. Howard, and 9th
crs believed to oc most Competent to
give advice, the distributions Of the
commission will DC made through the
j)iut agency OF She United States Dis
trict Commanders and the Governors Of
the different States. unless it be in some
cases where it would seem more adVis-
able to employ special agencies OF dis

commission have received letters from
all the district commanders and Govern
ors Of the States where destitutiOn pre-.
