that last year Southern gentlemen estimated that

ed by Governors Orr, Humphreys and others, but
before spring there will doubtless be suffering 10
South Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana and small
sections OF other States. He urges the president
and Congress to inaugurate q system Of relief
which will not pauperize the people. Howard,
with the approval Of Grant, has directed the sub.
commissioners to relieve absolute distress, and
has directed purchases Of corn 10 be made for
distribution in the most needy sections.
No bureau officers will be retained In the South
