DEsTITUTIoN AT THE SoUTH.-Recent dispatch

eerng and starvation throughout Georgia and
Alabama, and 81 ,O00, 900 has been appropropri-
ated for the relief of the poor of those sections
Congress should have passed an amendatory act
for the immediate sale of estates belonging to
rebels, and provided for the distribution of
portion of the proceeds among the Southern poor,
and devoting the remainder for the education of
the lower classes, white and black. While arro-
gantly refusing assistance from loyal Northern
traders who proffer credit TO enable them to COM
mence rebuilding their fallen fortunes, they pass
by with Indifference the cries for bread from the
helpless and deluded thousands whose want has
been produced by their arstocratic ambition to
rule. Only few days since two prominent ar
my officers testified before Congressional COM
mittee that upwards of one hundred millions of
dollars worth of confscated property had been
returned to prominent rebels by order of the
President, and in direct conflict with the confs-
cation law. That the hungry and destitute
should and must be provided for none will deny,
but money appropriated should be claim
rebel estates, to be repaid at the pleasure of
Congress.

~, srocKToN AND THREE OTHERS KILLED BY 4
@oA SINGLE INDIAN!

P L. Thomas, EsqS of South Fork arrived
here on Wednesday evening, bringing details of
q most bloody and brutal murder committed two
miles miles above Willow creek on last Sunday
morning The particulars of the affair, as fur
r;sbed bv Edward Bontecou in q note to this pa
per, are as follows;
On Saturday night, 3Oth, Indian Agent Stock
ton accompanied by - Pratt, Jas. Latham VIM
Griffin and Isaac Slower, citizens of that section.
loft Fort CASTOR in search of 't Frank and two
other Indians, who had been absent from the
Reservation several days. Learning that they
were at an old cabin above Willow creek, the
FIVE men crossed the river on Sunday morning
and discovered the objects of their search. as
above stated, in the cabin When Col. Stockton
tried to induce g Frank" to return to the Reser-
yation he showed fight, and knowing him to be
a desperate character be determined to send Pratt
to the Fort for detachment of soldiers. Pratt
started, the remaining four very injudiciously
stopping in close proximity to the cabin. The
Indian probably surmising Pratts errand, con-
cluded that his only opportunity of escape
to fight his way out, for Pratt had hardly reached
the opposite side of the river when he heard six
shots fred and turning an Indian running
up the bar with sixteen-shooter belonging to
one of the white men. Pratt buried to Gray l.
Campbel's store at Martinville, and gave the
alarm, aud VIM. Webster Immediately started for
Fort Castor with what particulars he could
gather What transpired after Pratt left can on
ly be surmised from the statements of Griffin,
who was alive when the party from the Fort
reached the bloody scene, but died in an hour.
Griffin thinks there were three Indians in the
cabin, bnt that the shooting was all done by
'' Frank" 1t is enough to know that four valu-
able lives have been taken by a notoriously bad
Indian, and that he is now at large with two or
three confederates, and all the arms and ammu-
milton taken from the murdered men. Maj Bow
en-, we are told, aas a hundred men at Gaston.-
Let them have no rest until the murderer is cap
tured and made, as far as possible, to suffer the
the penalty of his heinous crimes Col Stock
ton was q brother-inlaw of Senator Conness.

Great is my fear that this demanding OF

AN instance of the peaceful and natural
extinction of slavery is afforded by the
state of society in the little island of Porto
Rico. The population is very dense, SO
that colonization is out of the question,
which is also prohibited by the large pro-
portion which the blacks bear to the whites,
the latter. being in majority of only 5000
in an aggregate population of 10000. The
slave trade has entirely ceased, but the
number of negroes is steadily increasing by
an excess of births over deaths. The whole
number of slaves is about $4,000, of whom
nearly one half work on the plantations,
while the others are employed as house
servants and mechanics. OF this number
about four per cent. are liberated each year,
and thus, without agitation, with no danger
