despatched a flat boat and skiff, and hastened himself to the relief of the sufferers on board, had all the wounded conveyed to his quar- ters, where he administered to them with hls own hands, such remedies as their distressed situation called for. To those that were moi wounded, he gave shelter and food, which their exhausted situation called for. There was large number of deck passengers with families of children, who lost their all. They all received an. equal share of kindness, and portion of them are now enjoying hls phl- lanthropy.

 We will repeat, that we shall ever remem- Der, with gratitude, the kindness extended by Mir. Richardson. It was all done in an un- pretending and still manner, We all felt as if we wem in the house of an old friend and acquaintance.

 The undersigned are aware that our opin- ion will not add to the high reputation now enjoyed by MT. Richardson, as manager of large estate. At the same time, we were so struck with the order, content, neatness, and comfort exhibited by the slaves on the estate, that we cannot withhold the expres- sion that it exhibits in a clear light, the bene- fit to all concerned of the advantages of good management.

 We will also express our acknowledgements to Judge Roane, whose mansion is some dis tance from the scene. He, too, hastened to the spot, and offered all the assistance in his power, and had portion of the passengers removed to his house.

 It is also due to many persons in the neigh borhood, to say that they offered all the as- sistance in their power to the unfortunate sufferers on board the boat.
