General Order, \
No. 4. / .
To prevent misunderstanding, and to Jristtrc uni
formity in tlie administration of the military affairs
of the department, the following instructions vrjll
be observed by tbe officers of this command :
1st.-The aid, which the president of the United
States, in h s proclamation, appointing a provision
al governor for the State of Georgia, has directed
the military authorities to give the governor in his
efforts to organize a State government,.will be ren
dered by all officers on duty in this department, to
whom application may be made by tbe governor, or
his duly aathoriced agent, and n* interference by
any person in the military service of the United
States, with the official aeorders or efforts of t&c
provisional governor will be permitted. •• The mil
itary authority should sustain, noi assume the func
tions of civil authority, except when the unsettled
sute of society requires such assumption, as a last
resource, to preserve pence and quiet.
2d. Strict di:Cipline will bo maintained, pillaging
and marauding will be severely anp promptly pun
ished; private property will not be seized or im
pressed nnder any pretext'whatever, nor will the
lions# of any citizen be searohed for property nnless
the search is ordered upon sworn affidavit, but of-
fisers will aid the treasury department in protect
ing and bringing td market, property, already seiz
ed by the government as formerly obtained by the
so-called Confederate States, or which was included
in the surrender of the confederate army. No citi
zen will be arrested npon the complaint of another
citizen nnless the assertion, supported-by the oath
of the complaint, would justify the issuing of a
warrant in rime of peace.
3d. All officers of the department are enjoined to
abstain from interfering with the J>ugine*s affairs
of social relation of citizens: such intcricrcnce will
not be permitted, and officers are especially direct
ed not jo obtride upon families, but to confino them
selves in their social intercourse, strictly to those,
who seek or invite their eociety.‘ -But while eiti-
sens are to be protected in all their lawful rights
and pursuits by tbe military, it will be the duty of
officers to see that tha dignity and authority of the
military power of the government is maintained and
respected. While enforcing strict discipline they
will be careful to protect the soldier from insult or
indignities. ’ *• '

officers in command of troops with in, the department,
