Bullock, Governor, and Cominander-in-Chief ol the army and navy of the State of Georgia, and of the militia thereof, do hereby issue this, my proclamation, charging aud commanding the said sheriffs, and each and every other civil officer in every county in this Stare, to see to it that the lives and property of all cirlzens, and the peace of the community, are preserved, and th >t ah persons are protected in the free exercise of their civil and political rights and privi leges. And, further, to make known, that for failure in the performance of duty, the Eaid Sheriffs aud other civil officers will be held to a strict accountability, under the law ; and to charge upon every person, resident in this State, that they render prompt and willing obedience to the said Sheriffs, and other civil officers, under all cir cumstances whatsoever; and that they demand from said officers protection when threatened or disturbed in their person or property, or with denial ot political or civil rights ; and that, failing to receive snch protection, they report facts to this department. The following exe.net from General Orders No. 27, dated October 8,1868, from Headquarters Department of the South, is published for the information of civil offi cers aud the general public, by which it will be seen that said civil officers wili, in the performrnee of their dnties, be sustained by the military - power ot the Uuiied States.

No. 27. “Whefeas, By an act ot the Congress of the United StateB, approved March 2d, 1665, it is made the duty of the military authority to preserve the peace at the polls at any election that may bo held in any of the States: •‘And Whereas, This duty has become the more im- ^ perative lrom the existing political excitement in the public mind, from the recent organization ot civil gov ernment, and from the fact that Congress has by statute prohibited the organization of military forces in the sev eral States of this Department; it is, therefore, “ Ordered, That the several District commanders will, as soon as practicable, on the receipt of this order, dis tribute the troops under their commands as follows: * * * * In the District of Georgia : “One compauy 16th Infantry, to Albany. “One company 16th Infantry, to Columbus. “Oue company 16th Infantry, to Macon. “One company 16th Infantry, to Augusta. “One company 16th Infantry, to Washington, Wilkes county. “One company 16th Infantry, to Americns. “One company 10th Infantry, to Thomasville. “Oue company (C) 5th Cavalry, to Athens. “The company at Savannah to be reinforced, should occasion require, by such number of the men at Fort Pulaski as can he spared from the post. • * * ***** “Detachments, when necessary, may be made to points in the vicinity of each post; but in no case, nor ou any pretext whatever, will detachments be sent without a commissioned officer, who will be fully instructed by his post commander. “The troops wi.l be considered as in the field, and sup plied with the necessary camp eqnippage; the men to be furnished with common tents if practicable, and if not practicable, with shelter tents. Commanding officers are permitted to hire quarters, temporarily, when it call be done for reasonable rates; but this will not preclnde the necessity of carrying tents, as the commands, in all cases, must be in readiness to move at the shortest no tice, with all supplies required for their efficiency. “District commanders will instruct post commanders in their duties, and the relative position of the civil and military powers. They will impress on post command ers that they are to act in aid aud co operation, and in subordinai ion to the civil authorities; that they are to exercise discretion aud judgment, unbiased by political or other prejudices; that their object should be exe’u- eive’y to preserve the peace and uphold law and order, and they must be satisfied such is the object of the civil officer calling on them for a>d; that they must in all cases where time will permit, apply for instruction to superior authority, but they must at ail hazards preserve the peace, aud not be restrained by technical points when, in their conscientious judgment under the rules above set forth, it is their duty to act. Post command ers, on being notified of the proposed holding of politi cal meetings, may send an officer, and if necessary a de tachment, to watch the proceedings and see that the peace is preserved. “To the people of the several State? composing the De;>artineut. the Major i eneral Commanding appeals that they will co operate with him and the civil authori ties in sustaining law and order, ia p.-t serving the peace and in avoiding those scenes of riot and bloodshed, and the wanton destruc ion of property and life, which has already, in some in unices, been enacted in the Depart ment. He nrges abstinence from ail inflammatory and incendiary appeals o the passions; ciscuuntenancing the keeping open of liquor shops on days of political meeting.-and of election; the abstaining from carrying arms, ynd • sseaing the individual right of constructing laws by force of arms. No just cause is ever advanced by resort to violence. Let there be charity and forbear ance among political opponents, whatever may be the result; let each good citizen determine that ali who, un der the law, have the right to the ballot shall exercise it undisturbed. If there are disputed points of law, let them be referred to the courts, arid let not mobs or po litical clubs, or other ii responsible bodies, construe and undertake to execute the law. This appeal is made in the earnest hope that the Major General Commanding c n rely on the good sense and correct judgment of the mass of the people, and that Ue wili not be compelled to resort to the exercise of the power with which he is in trusted, aud ■ hich ne will most reluctaut.y employ. But he thinks it hi? duty to make known, that so far as the power under his command will admit, he will not per mit the peace to be broken, and that he wili not be re strained in the conscientious discharge of his duty by technicalities of laws made when the present anomalous condition oi affaire were neither anticipated or provided tor.” By order of Major General Meade; oclO—tilnov3 R.
