| MPORTANT NOTICE TO COTTON OWNERS -
Office of the U. S. Pcfouasing Agent, )
Savannah, Qa„ May 22, 1865. j
The attention of cotton owners is called to the fol
lowing extracts from the “ Amended Regulations tor
the purchase es products of the insurrectionary States
on Government Account," issued from the Treasury
Department of date May 9th, 1865, and approved by
the President of the same date.
“1. Agents shall be appointed by the Secretary of
the Treasury, with the approval of the President, to
purchase for the United States, under special instruc
tions from the Secretary of the Treasury, products of
the States declared to be in insurrection at such places
as may from time to time be designated by tbe Secre
tary of the Treasury as markets or places of purchase.
»«*\«** • * « « » «
111. The operations of Purchasing Agents shall be
coutined to the single article of Cotton; and they
shall give public notice at the place to which they
: hall be assigned, that they will purchase, in accord
ance with these regulations, all cotton not captured
or abandoned, which may be brought to them.
IV. To meet the requirements of the Bth section of
the Act of July 2, 1864, the Agents shall seenre all
cotton so brought, and forthw th return to the seller
three fourths thereof, which portion shall be an aver
age grade of the whole, according to the certificate of
a sworn sampler or expert.
V. All cotton purchased and resold by purchasing
Agents shall be exempt from all line and all internal
taxes. And the Agent selling shall mark the same
"FREE” and furnish to the purchaser a bill of sale
duly and accurately describing the character and quan
tity sold, and containing a certificate that it is exempt
from taxes and fees as above.
««*««««« ««•«
IX. Ail Agents are prohibited,from purchasing any
product of an insurrectionary State, which shall have
been captured by the mJitary or naval forces of the
United States, or which shall have been abandoned
by the lawful owner thereof.
X. "These regulations, which are intended to revoke
atnl annul ail others on the subject heretofore made,
will take effect and be in force on and after May 10th,
ISCS."
The undersigned has been appointed Purchasing
Agent at Savannah, and hereby gives notice that he is
prepared to purchase, in accordance with the regula
tions, of which the above paragraphs are extracts, all
i.'otton not captured or abandoned, which may be
brought to him.
The war is virtually closed, and to the end that the
people may, to as full an extent as possible, commence
to reap the benefits of a state of peace, it is desiraqle
that the old and regular channels of trade be re-estab
ed. new ones opened, and the occupations of the peo
ple, both in city and country, be resumed. It is ex
pected that the purchase, by the Treasury Department,
in good faith of the cotton ip the country now in the
hands of its owners, returning therefor a fair and hon
est equivalent, will largely tend to bring about a state
of things so much to be desired by all.
lltßestrictions upon trade are now virtually abolished,
and citizens may, with a few unimportaut exceptions,
now purchase anil take away whatever their necessi
ties require, and I feel satisfied that the disposition to
do all that may be done to bring about once more a
normal and healthy condition of trade wifi not be
wanting. Cotton owners may rest assured that it is
now perfectly safe feo far at least as any interference
on the part of the Government is concerned) for them
to„brmg in and dispose of their cotton, The fullest
protection will be guaranteed, upon its arrival in Sa
vannah, and such oilier protection and safe conduct as
the Agent may be able to obtain for cotton in transitu
will be freely afforded
It is hoped that before long enterprise will open up
better and safer means of communication with, and
transportation to, Savannah from the interior than
now exists. In the meantime, and until that takes
place, owners of Cotton at distant points desirous of
marketing it at Savannah, will doubtless be able to
uprise temporary expedients for accomplishing that
