Wueheas, Notwithstanding the Executive
Proclamation of September 14th, 1868, many
lawless acts have occurred in violation thereof,
whereby the lives and property of citizens have
been destroyed, the right of free speech im
paired, the performance of the duties of the
offices to which c'.tizons have been elected, de
nied, the lives of citizens co threatened as to
cause them to abandon their homes and prop
erty ;
And Whereas, “The protection of persons
and property is the paramount duty of Gov
ernment, and shall ho impartial and com
plete;”
And Whereas, The Sheriff of each county is,
by law, charged with the preservation of life,
property and peace in each county :

every county in this State, to see to it that the
lives and property of all citizens, and the peace
of the community, ate preserved ; and that all
persons are protected in the free exercise of their
civil and political rights and privileges. And,
further, to make known that, for failure in the
performance of duty, the said Sheriffs and other

nnder the law. And, to charge upon every per
son, resident in this State, that they render
prompt and willing obedience to the said Sheriffs
and other civil officer, Milder «IZ circmastanm

By the Governor: Governor.
David G. Coitinv,
Secretary of State.
IlEADgr*.rters Department or hie South, I
, Atlanta, Georgia, Oct 8, 1868. j
general Orders, A’o. 27.
“Whereas, by an act of Congress of the United
States, approved March 2, 1865, it is made the
duty of the military authority to preserve the
peace at the polls at any election which may bo
held in any of the States; and, whereas, this
duty h'B become the more imperative, from the
existing political excitement in the public mind,
from the recent organization of civil govern
ment, and from the fact that Congress has, by
statute, prohibited the organization of military
forces in ths several Stales of this Department,
it is therefore ordered,
“That the several District commanders will,
as soon as practicable, on the receipt of this
order, distribute the troops under their commands
as follews :
* * » *
In the District of Georgia :
One company 16tli Infantry, td Albany.
Oae company 16th Infantry, t > Columbus.
One company 16th Infantry, to Macon.
One company 16th Infantry, to Augusta.
One company 16th Infantry to Washington,
Wilkes county.
Ono company 16th Infantry, to Americus.
Ono company (C), sth Cavalry, to Athens.
The company at Savannah to be reinforced,
should occasion require, by such mon at Fort
Pulaski as can be spared from the post.
* » » » »
“ Detachments, when necessary, may bo mado
to points in the vicinity of each post ; but iii no
case, nor on any pretext whatever, will detach
ments be seat without commissioned officer, who
will bo fully instructed by his post oom
mander .
“The troops will be considered as in the field
aud supplied with the neoessary carnp equipago
the p>cn te be furnished with . .imiiion teats i
.practicable, and if not practicable, with shelter
tents. Cernmandiog officers arc permitted to
hire quarters, temporarily, when it can be done
for reasonable rates ; but this will not preclude
the necessity es carrying tents, as tho commands,
iti all cases, must bo in readiness to move at the
shortest notice, with all supplies required for
their efficiency.
“ District Commanders will instruct Post Com
manders in their duties, and tho relative position
of the civil and military powers. They will
impress on Post Commanders that they are to
act in aid and co-operation, nnd in subordination
to the civil authorities; that they aro te exercise
discretion and judgment, unbiased by pelitical
or other prejudices; that their object should be
exclusively to preserve tho peace and uphold law
and order, aud they must be satisfied such is the
object of the civil officer calling on them for aid ;
that they must in all cases, where time will
permit, apply for instruction to superior au
thority, but they must at all hazards preserve
the peace, and not be restrained by technical
points, when, iu tbeir conscientious judgment,
under the rules above set forth, it is their duty
to act. Post Commanders on being notitiod oi
tbe proposed holding of political meetings, may
send an officer, and it nooessary a detach
ment, to watch the proceedings and see that the
peace is preserved.
“ To -the people of the several States compos
ing tbe Department, the Major General Com
manding appeals that they will 00-opcrate with
him and the civil authorities in sustaining law
and order, in preserving the peace, and in avoid
ing those scenes of riot and bloodshed, and the
wanton destruction of properly and lite which
has already, in some instances, been enacted in
this Department, lie urges abstinence from all
inflammatory and incendiary appeals to the
passions; discountenancing tbe keeping open of
liquor shops on days of political meetings and of
election; the abstaining from carrying aims,
and asserting the individual right of construing
laws by force of arms. No just cause is ever ad
vanced by resort to violence. Let there be
charity and forbearance among political oppo
nents, whatever may be tbe result. Let eaih
good citizen determine that all who, under t lie
aw. have the right to tbe ballot shsll exercise it
undisturbed. If there are disputed points of
law, let them be referred to the Courts, and list
not mobs or political clubs, or other irresponsi
ble bodies, construe and undertake to
execute the law. This appeal is made in the
earnest hope that the Major General Command-
ing can roly on the good sense and correet
judgment of the mass of the people, and that he
will not lie compelled to resort to the exercise of
the power with which he is entrusted, and which
lie will most reluctantly employ. But ho thinks
it his duty to make known, that so far u* the
power under his command will admit, he will
not permit tho peace to bo broken, and that he
will not be restrained in the conscientious dis
charge of his duty by technicalities of laws made
when the present eumnalous condition of affairs
were neither anticipated or provided for.”
By order of Major General Mmadk :

Dear Sirs—During a residence of some ten

your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for that tearful scourge, th# Cholera.
In administering the medicine, I found it. most
effectual to give a tenspeotifnl of Pain Killer in a
gill of hot water sweetened with sugiir; then;
usu r about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table
spoonful of tho same mixture every minute until
relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to
the extremities. Bathe tho stomm-h with Pain
Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Os those
who had tbe cliolera, and took t bo medicine faith
