advisable (as the government supplies will
be here tomorrow to close the present place
OF distribution, and to give to Mr.. II. NJ.

tributed with those sent by the government.
We would recommend that the money in our
hands be given TO Mr.. james Tor the purpose
OF defrayiDg the necessary expenses incident
to the distribution OF the government sup
plies, as there was no appropriation made by
the government for that purpose. We cannot
close this report without calling attention to
the TACT that there are great many destitute
people here from our sister States Arkansas
and Mississippi, and that we had frequent
applications from them, but were compelled
10 refuse, as We were restricted 10 Tennes-
scans. We think these people should be
cared for in some way, as they have been
driven from their homes, and doubtless came
here believing they would get assistance, and
are now unable to get to their homes or to
provide for themselves if they were there.
