stated that Lake Village and one-flfth

the low-lands state that there are
10000 farm laborers in absolute want

passage to this city. A planter. whose
estate was worth, not long ago, $50. 600,
came penniless on a steamer to Mem

furnishing food to negroes, and then.
hopeless and helpless, he left them to
starve or escape as best they could, in
the midst of sea OF waters. The sus-
pension of business by banks had with
drawn money from circulation, and the
least possible was found in tho low

was unexampled want in the midst Of
these rich estates. and now the white

homes are pale with anxiety. or because

humid atmosphere. It is needless now
to look abroad for objects of charity.
They are at our very doors. It sounds
well to make money jingle over the

transmitted by telegraph to New Or
leans, but Boston aud Memphis alike
would do we'll to direct their benefac-
tions to objects in whose behalf no
newspapers speak, and from whom no
press dispatches are sent resonant of
hunger and wretchedness. There are
NO chambers of commerce or Howard

those wretched blacks share blessings OF

Posts Washington correspondent says:
During the afternoon friend said to the father
of the bride: General, you are democratic in
your tastes; why do you make this display,
which for Splendor and magniticence borders
on the exhibitions made by the royalists Of
European nations Replied Gen. Sherman
quickly, evidently desiring to say no more on
the subject; This is the work Of Mrs. Sher-
man. The gossips explain the matter by the
assertion that Mrs. Sherman was determined to
Guido the White House people, in which she
undoubtedly succeeded, for in scarcely any re-
spect does the Grant-Sartoris wedding stand
very well when compared with the affair of to-
day. A lady remarked Now how strange it
would be if, after having been lucky enough to
get for Il wife the daughter of the General of
