Newspaper Page TextThe Savannah Daily Herald. WEDNESDAY. AtGl'SI 9, 18*5. FRon Oi'R EVESW’C EDITION OF YESTERDAY. the season and the c rops. The intense anti debilitating beat of the weather for ten days past, is reported to be without precedent, within the recollection of the oldest inhabitants of Savannah. The the rmometer has ranged at times ashigh as one hundred degrees during the day, and, notwithstanding the proximity to the sea shore, has indicated but slight falling of the mercury during the nights. The frequent and copious sliowers of rain that have* fallen during the time mitigated hut little the fer vency ot the descending and ascending heat. Os course difficult respiration, profuse sweating and sleepless nights have been the universal complaint. Accounts of the ex istence of similar weather are reaching us : from numerous localities in adjoining Suites. The statements we have htard respecting the crops of cereals in Georgia are somewhat confused and unsatisfactory. Enough is known, however, to warrant the conclusion that the corn crop is, in many parts of the State, unusually promising; while in other sections the growth has been checked mate rially by the protracted spell of dry weather, commencing iu June and continuing until the last of July. The aggregate production of the State will, we are confident, be amply sufficient for domestic consumption. We regret to learn that in the Northern portion of the State the wheat crop was al most entirely destroyed by the rust and other causes; but the farmers feel that they are partially compensated, at least, for this dis aster by the superabundant yield of corn, oats, potatoes, dec. It is a remarkable fact that no notice has been taken whatever of the cotton crop; which can only he accounted for on the sup position that the atuouut growing is so insig nificantly small as to forfeit all claim to spe cial or even passing comment. Charter of American Liuerty. Boston : . Taggard & Thompson. We have received a copy of the above val uable little work, which contains in very convenient form the Constitution of the United States, the Declaration of Independ ence, Washington’s Farewell Address, the Proclamation of Emancipation, and the His tory of the American Flag—all documents important for reference. A sac simile of the signatures to the Declaration of Independ ence and a portrait of George Washington also appear. Messrs. Taggard & Thompson have issued the book in very neat, accurate and substancial form, after their well known style.

To the Pkoclb of Alabama : The appeal to anus has been made and de . cided against us, but not until our sons and brothers had exhibited a-degree of courage and endurance, which commands the respect and admiration of the world. Alabama was admitted to the Union on the 2d day of March, 1811*. What her popula tion and resources were at that time, I have not the means at hand to state; but the ceusus of 1800 enables us to see what her condition was when the convention passed the ordi nance of secession on the llth day of Janu ary, 18G1. Our state then had a population of 001,201 souls, of which 526,431 were whites, 2,000 were free colored, and 4:15,080 were slaves. We had 0,402,087 acres of improved lands, the greater part of which was in actual culti vation, producing 32,761,194 bushels of corn; 1,222,487 bushels of wheat; 73,042 bushels ol rye ; 716,435 bushels of oats ; 409,559 pounds of rice ; 221,284 pounds of tobacco; 1,483,- 000 bushels of peas and beans; 307,566 bushels of Irish potatoes ; 5,420,987 bushels of sweet potatoes ; and 997,978 bales of cotton. We had 108,701 mules, 127,205 hotses, 234,045 milch cows, 92,495 working oxen, 452,643 heat! of other cattle, 369,061 sheep, yielding 661,404 pounds of wool, and 1,736,559 swine. We had 743 miles ot railroad iu operation, which had cost us $17,591,188. We had $4,901,000 invested in bank stock, $2,747,174 in specie, and $4,851,153 on deposit in tile different banksof tbe state, and sß,26o,oooin vested in manufactures, the value ol whose annual product was $9,400,000. The value of our real estate and personal property, exclusive of the value ol negroes, was $495,277,078. The State owed a sterling band debt, pay able in London, of $1,336,000, and a decimal bond debt, payable in New York, of $2,109,- 000. It also owed what is called tile funded debt of the State, consisting of the sixteenth section and the university fund, on which the interest only can be paid, the State hav ing assumed this in perpetuity, auiountiog to $120,009. To meet this the State had sl,- 200, b00 in North Carolina and Virginia six per cent, bonds, worth, at that time, a pre mium in the market, and aa aunual revenue Nvlucii exceeded all iis expeuaes about & . In the prosecution of the war for the last four years, into which Alabama was precipi tated, about 122 000 of her sons have been carried to the field ot battle, 35,000 of wbotn will never return ; and it is probably an equal or.larger number are permanently in jured by wouuds or disease Wu p o m service. Avery large proportion of our ma terial wealth bas been exhausted. Our fields are laid waste, our towns aud cities, our rail roads and bridges, our schools and colleges! many of our private dwellings and public edifices are in ruins. Silence and desolation reign where ouce stood the comfortable home which resounded with tbe joyous laugh of childhood aud innocence. Tun State has contrrcled a large war debt during tliis period, and liasttu liatu.l as near as can be now be ascertained about $ in Confederate Treasury notes, which are ut terly worthless, and about $ —— in good funds. Untold sufferings have been and are still endured by thousands of our women and children and the aged aud helpless of our Tlanct. There is no longer a slave in Alabama. It is thus made manifest to the world that the right of secession for the purpose of estab lisbiug a separate Confederacy, based ou tne idea of African slavery, has been fully aud effectually tried, and is a failure. Yet, amid all the ruin, suffering, and death which have resulted lrorn it, every political right which the Slate possessed under the Federal Constitution is hers to-day, with the single exception relating to slavery. The life-boat of the Union is still within our reach. The flag which our lathers es tablished with their blood among the nations of the earth still floats at her masthead. Uu her quarter-deck, despite the bullet aud dag ger of the assassin, still stands a helmsman at his post, surrounded by a crew who, lor the most part, with outstretched hands and in cordial tones invite us to come on board and share equally with them the prosperity, the danger, and the glory which may fall to the lot of those whose fortunes are united to her. Friends and fellow-citizens, shall we not Boit? There is no other sail in sight. Eug- laud and France often seemed to be bearing down to our relief, but they bare tacked, nay, they have put square about, and arc now hull down on the distant verge of the ocean. But the ship which our fathers built bas backed ber engines and her sails, and is lying to, ready t" receive us. Her comman der says come. It is your right. Her crew are lookiug over her sides ready to lend us a hand. And if they who fell at Lexington and Bunker Hill, at the Cowpens aud York town, could speak to us, would they not say, “go on board the ship which we built and launched lor all of you; brethren, be at peace aud dwell together in untity; you have ( fallen out; you have had a dreadful family quarrel, as children too often have, after the parents are dead and gone who acquired the estate; but be thankful to God that the great principles of civil and religious liberty, of free government, aDd man’s capacity to gov ern himself, still survive amid the ruin which you have wrought. You will all be once more integral parts of an empire wbieli con tains within itself the elements necessary to secure all of peace, prosperity and happiness which fall to the lot of men aud nations, There is not a friend to the principles of gov ernment which we bequeathed you, among the kiugs and despots of the earth- You have had, during all this death struggle, but one real friend in Europe, the Emperor of Russia.” ... . . „ . Shall we not heed tbeir advice? In the hope, in the belief that we will; it bas pleas ed his Excellency Andrew Johnson, Presi dent of the United States, to appoint the un dersigned Provisional Governor of Alabama, “tor The purpose of enabling the loyal peo ple of said Slate to organize a State Govern ment, whereby justice may be established, domestic tranquility insured, aud loyal citi zens protected in all their rights ot life, liber ty and property," and the President hasanade it my duty “to prescribe such rules and regu lations as may be necessarynnd proper fo-jn n vening a convention composed of delegates to chosen by that portion of the people of said be State who are loyal to the United States,and no other,for the purpose of altering or amend ing the Constitution thereof; and with au thority to exercise within the limits of said State all the powers necessary and proper to enable such loyal people of ttie State of Ala- bama to restore said State to its constitution al relations to the Federal Government, and to present such a republican form of State government as will entitle the State to the guarantee of the United States therefor, and Its people to protection by the United States against “invasion, insurrection, aud domestic violence.” Now, for the purpose of carrying into exe cution the eomutauds ofthe President, and to enable the loyal people of Alabama to se cure to .themselves the benefits of civil gov ernment, I do hereby declare and ordain: 1. That the Justices of the Peace ami Con stables in each county of this State,the mem bers ot the Commissioners' Court (except the Judges of Probate), the County Treasurer, the Tax Collector and Assessor, the Coroner and the several municipal officers of each in corporated cilyor town in this State, who were respectively in office and ready to discharge the duties thereof ou the 22d day of May, 1865, are hereby appointed to fill those of fices during the continuance of this Provis ional government. And as it is necessnry that the persons who fill these several offices should be loyal to the United Slates, the power is hereby reserved to remove any per son for disloyalty or for improper conduct in office, or neglect of its duties; and I earnest ly request all loyal citizens to give me pioimpt information in regard to any officer who is objectionable on any of these grounds. The Judges of Probate aud Sheriffs who were in office on tire 22d of May, 1865, will take the oath as herein required of other of ficers, and continue to discharge the duties of their respective offices until others are ap- pointed. 2. Each of these persons thus appointed I to office must take and subscribe the oath of amnesty as prescribed by the President's proclamation of the 25th day of May. 1865, and immediately transmit the same to this office. At the eud of Said oatu, and after the word “ slave” he must add these words, “and I will faithfully discharge the duties of my office to the best of my ability." Each of these officers must also give bond and se curity, payable to the Slate of Alabama, as required by the laws of Alabama, ou tbe llth day of January, 1861. If any person acts in the discharge of the duties of any of the aforesaid offices without having com plied with tbe foregoing regulations on his part, he will be punished. This oatli of am nesty aud ot office may be taken before any commissioned officer in the civil, military or naval service of the United States; and the judge of probate in each county in this State on tbe 22d of May, 1865, may also administer it, unless another judge of probate shall have beeu appointed by me in tbe meantime, and approve and file the bond which is here by required to be given. But no one can bold auy of these offices who is exempted by the proclamation of the President from the benefit of amnesty, unless he has been specialty pardoned. 3. The appointment of judge of probate and sheriff in each county will be made spe cially as soon as suitable per sop 3 are properly recommended, and, when appoint ed, they will take the oath of scribed in the foregoing section, and give bond and security as required by the law of Alabama, on the llth day of January, 1861. And vacancies in any of the county offices will be promptly filled when it is made known and a proper person recommended. 4 If the loyal citizens of the State find it necessary to have other officers appointed, viz.- clerks of the circuit courts, suiicitois, judges of the circuit courts, chancellors and judges of the supreme court,-when that ne cessity is satisfactorily established, the ap pointments wilt be made. 6. An election for delegates to a conven tion of the loyal citizens of Alabama will be held in each county in the State on Monday, the 31st day of August next, in the manner provided by the laws of Alabama, on the llth day ot January, 1861; but no person can vote in said election, or be a candidate for election, who is not a legal voter as the law was on that day; and if be is excepted from the benefit of amnesty, under tbe Pres ident’s proclamation of tbe 29th May, 1865, he must have obtained a pardon. 6 Every person must vote in the county of bis residence, and before he is allowed to do so, must take aud subscribe the oath of amnesty prescribed in the President’s pio clamalion of the 29th of May 1865,belbre some one of the officers hereinafter appointed for that purpose iu tlte county where he offers to vote; |and ady person offering to vote iu violation ot these rules or the laws of Ala bama on the llth of January, 18C1, will be 1 punished. 7. There will be elected In each county of the State, on said day, as many delegates to »akl couveuiiou as said county was entitled to representatives iu the House ol Represen tatives ou the llth day of January, 1861; and the delegates so elected will receive a certificate of election from tie Sheriff' of the county, „ a u W »U assemble in convention at the Lapitoi i n Montgomery, on the 10th day ol September, 1865, at 12 M. criminoT and l a, f'; r 1,118 the civil and the 11 h dav* f t lab! “ Ua ’ « Stood ou uorli l m !o.i 0 j ;' nUary ’ 1801 > except that P fitch relates to slaves, are hereby , in fu| l f orce aud operation* u ‘ P ro ‘ : *«ta»g» for the punishment ot offenses against ihem will be turned over to tire proper civil officers, together with the custody ot the person charged, and the civil authorities will proceed iu all cases accord* UI S h* ,aw - Suits iu civil cases now peudiuir whether an onginal mesne or final process’ before* auy officer acting under military au thority, will also be turned over to the uroner civil officer, and will be governed iu all things by the laws of the State aforesaid. 6 9. All unlawful means to punish offenders are hereby strictly prohibited. No ‘ vigilance committee” or other organization lor the punishment of supposed offenders, not au thorized by the law of the Stale, will be per mitted, and if auy such are attempted, the person or persons so offending will be prompt ly arrested aud puuished. The lovers ot law aud order throughout the State a-e appealed to and solemnly urged to aid, by all lawful means, in sustaining the cause of law and ! order. If tbe people of the State will do • his willingly and promptly, we shall lie able to restore |iertce and security to every home in our In-loved state; but if offender* become too stroug, the military power ofthe United Slates will aid us. Henceforth that power will act in aid ot aud iu subordination to the civil authority of the Stale. 10. The oath which is required to be taken by those who desire to vote tor delegates to the convention may be administered by the judge of probate of the county where the voter lives, or by any Justice ot the Peace iu said county, and by officers s|>ecially there unto appointed. Blanks will be turnisbed these officers by the judge of probate, to whom lhay will be seul on application, wbfTe tliey cannot be printed. One copy of said oatu will be given to the voter, and another will lie kept by the officer betoie wjiotn it is taken, which must lx- filed with the judge of probate and indorsed by the judge of pro bate, willi affixut s name, and uumbered from one up, and preserved by him as a part ofthe recot ds ot his office. Tue judge of probate must make out a certified list of « names, numbered to correspond with tbe affidavits, and transmit it to this office by someone of the delegates to the convention. It is im portant the lists should ail be lure ou tbe loth of September next, when the conven tion meets. Several officers will also transmit their ac counts tor these services at tbe same time ami it the fist of voters, made in a proper manner, accompanies them, the accounts will be promptly laid before the convention for adjustment. 14r There are no slaves now in Alabama. The slave code is uow a deart letter. They who were once slaves are now tree, and must be governed by the laws ot Alabama as tree men. It is the dictate of .wisdom, and we owe it to ourselves aud them to produce the last possible results lor both races, aud from the new order ot things - 12. All good citizens arc respectfully and earnestly urged to set the example of engag ing cheerfully, hopefully, and energetically in tin- prosecution of industrial pursuits, iu so doing, they will exert a good influence upon those who are despondent and east dowq.by tbe calamities which have bel'alleu us The idle, the*evil-disposed aud the vicious, if such there be wilhiu the limits ot our State, must dlstictly understand ibut all vio lations of law will be promptly punished. The sheriffs of the several counties are here by required to keep in reudincss a sufficient force of deputies or assistants, to enable them to execute all legal process and ar rest ull offenders promptly, and they will be held strictly accountable for auy neglect of duly in this respect. Rights of person anil property must j»e respected—law aud order must he preserved. If seriously opposed iu the exeeution of these orders, sheriffs will immediately report the tact to me that prompt and effectual measures may be taken to repress violence and assert the supremacy of the law.

July 12,1566, ) Circular,) No. 11. j I'list met ions to Assistant Commissioners and other Officers. Each Assistant Commissioner will be careftil, in the establishment of sub-districts, to have the office of hi.< agent at some point easy of access for tbe people of tne sub-district. He will have at least one agent, either a citizen, military officer, or enlisted man, iu each sub-district. This agent must be thoroughly instructed in his du ties. He will be furnished w ith the proper blanks for contracts, aud will iustiiute methods adequate to meet the wunts of his district iu accorduuce witlr the rules of this Bureau. No fixed rates of wages will be pre scribed for a district- but in order to regulate fair wages mgivtn individual cases, the agent should have Xu mind minimum rates for his own guidance By care ful inquiry as to the hire of on able-bodied man when the pay went to the master, he will have an approxi mate test of.the value of lubor. He mast of course consider the entire change of circumstances, and be sure that the laborer hasuue protection against avarice and extortion. Wages had better be secured by a lien on the crops or land. Employers are desired to enter into written agreements with employees, setting forth stated wages, or securing an interest in the land or crop, or both. All *ucb agreements will be Approved by tbe nearest agent, and u duplicate filed in hui office. Iu case there should be no agent within reach, the nearest postmaster will forward the duplicate of con tracts direct to the Assistant Commissioner for tbe State. Attention is specially called to section 4 of the law establish lug the Bureau, with regard to setting apart land to “every male citizen, whether refugee or ffeed wau,” Ac., and the same arrangement is recommend ed when it cun be effected, between private parties. Already many farmers have rented lands to freedmen and refugees This course is a recognition of the gen eral principal in the law. In order to enforce the fulfillment of contracts on both contracting parties, the Commissioner of the Bu reau lays down ub general rule—the Assistant Com missioner must use the privileges and authority he already has. Provost courts, military commissions, local courts, when the freedmen and refugees have equal rit hta with other people, are open to his use. In the great majority ol cu*e* his owu arbitrament, or that of his ugent, or the settlement by referees, wil be sufficient. No Assistant Commissioner or agent, is authorized to tolerate compulsory uupuid labor, except for the legal punishment of crime. Suffering may result to some extent, but suffering is preferred to slavery, and b to some degree the nece;saiy cousequence of events. In all actions the officer should never forget that no substitute for slavery, like apprenticeship without pioper con ent. or peonage, (i. v., either holding the people by debt, or confining them, without con-eat. to the land by any system.; will be tolerated. The Assistant Commissioner will designate one or more ol his agents to act as the general superinten dent of schools foue lor each State; l.»r retugeus aud freedtuen. This officer will work as much as possible in conjunction with state officers who may have school mutters in charge. If a general system can be adopt ed for a State, it is well; but if not, he will at least take cognixauce of all that is being done to educate refugees aud freedmen, secure proper protection to schools and teachers, promote method and efficiency, correspond with the benevolent agencies which are supplying his field, and aid the Assistant Commission er in making his required reports. Surgeon C. W. Horner, Chief Medical Officer of the Burouu, will have the general supervision of medical matters connected with refugees and freedmen. The Assistant Commissioners will instruct their medical officers, as they have instructed other officers, to make the medical department self-supporting os far as possible. AH public addresses of & character cumulated to create discontent are reprehensible ; but the Assistant Commissioner and his ugents mast explain, by con stant recapitulation, the itrinciples, law-, and regula tions or tnis Bureau, to all parties concerned, it is recommended to the Assistant Commissioners to draw up iu writing a carelul summary to be publicly and privately read by agents throughout their respective districts.
