vegetables of any kind, fish, Ac., as well as cot

market, except the cotton, which must be sold by
or through the Treasury Agents, and may invest
tlie proceeds in family stores, such as bacon
and flour, in any reasonable quantities, groce
ries, shoes and clothing, and articles not contra

families. No trade store wrilh be attempted in
the interior, or stocks of goods sold for them,
but families may club together for mutual assist
ance and protection in coming and going.
2d. The people are encouraged to meet to
gether in peaceful assemblages to discuss meas

ment, the perpetrator, if caught, will be summa
ly punished, or his family made to suffer for the
outrage; but if the crime cannot be traced to the
actmu party, then retaliation will be made on
the adherents to the. cause of the Rebellion
should a Union man be murdered, then a Rebel
selected by lot will be shot—or if a Union family
be persecuted on account of the cause, aliebri
family will be banished to a foreign land. In
aggravated cases retaliation will extend as high
as five for one. All commanding officers will act
promptly in such cases, arid report their action
alter the retaliation is done.
