THE DISTRIBUTION OF CORN TO THE DETT1TUrE
OF sT. PETERS PARIsH.-The Savannah News and
Herald says: "By the Act of Congress of March
o, 1857, providing for the distribution of certain
supplies to the poor Of the South, the distribution
to cease on the S0th of September last, Captain
II. G.. BRANDT, Of the Freedmen's Bureau, was for
some time engaged in the work Of dividing the al
lotment assessed to him among the destitute in
st. Peters Parish, 8. @. He completed his distri-
button ct the time specified, and has SQUARED up
his accounts. He has issued rations to 100 per-
sons, amounting in the aggregate to $4,000 DIS.

this was gwen to the widows and orphans of de-

With no fondness for the Freedmen's Bureau, az
our readers will testify, and with the knowledge
Of considerable ~rascality done in it BY political
appointees, under the guise Of philanthropy, we
cannot refrain from complmenting Captain B.
on the reputation for integrity in the discharge
of his duties among planters and sensible color
ed people.
For instance, the strict enforcement of the order
regarding squatters is in gratifying contrast to the
the behaviour OF some Freedmen's Bureau mon
and is most creditable.

The largo number Of ladies' who have been re-
duced to extremity by the e~xactions and unsuc-
cesSful issue OF the late war, render such an insti-
tuition not only @ meritorious charity, but almost
an absolute necessity. If our AFFAIRS were now
prosperous or promising, there would not be 90
much occasion for it, but the dsep depression
which seems to have settled down upon, our
fortunes, makes our future still more gloomy,
from it's uncertainty. rs sg Il .gt.
