•Gcnernt. Orders No. 27v
Whereas, By an act vs Congress of tho
United States, approved Marell 2d, I&i’>s, it is
made the duty of tho military authority to pre
’ serve.the peaea at tho polls at any election that
may be held in any of the States ; and Whereat,
this duty has become the more imperative, from
the existing political excitement in tho public
mind, from the recent organisation of civil gov
ernmebt, and from the fact that Congress has,
by statute, prohibited the organization of mili
tary forces iu the several States of this Depart
ment, it is therefore, ordered,
I. That the several Distriet Commanders will,
as soon as practicable, on the receipt of this
order, distribute the troops under thoir com
mands as follows:
.»«* s * »
In the District of .South Carolina:
One ootuparsy Bth-Infantry, tn Chester.
One company Sth Infantry, to Unionville.
One company Sth Infantry, jo Lauronsvillc.
One cbappany Bth liifitelry, to Abbeville.
One company Sth Infantry, to Newberry.
One eompjsny,SUi Infantry, to Edgefield.
One company (ifli Infantry, to ilcaaftirt.
One company 6th lnfant-y, to Georgetown.
One enuipuiy 6th Infantry,, ta Florence.
In the District of Georgia:
One company 16th Infantry, to Albany.
One company 16th Infantry, to Columbus.
One company 16th Infantry, to Macon.
One company 16tb Infantry, to Augusta.
One company 16th Infantry to Washington
Wilkes county.
One company 16th Infantry, to Americus.
One company 16th infantry, to Thomasville.
One company (C) sth cavalry, to Athens.
The company a t Favanifah to he reinforced,
should occasion require, by such number ol men
nt Fort Pulaski as cab be spared from tho post.
11. Detaahmonts, when necessary, way be
made to points ih the vicinity of each post; but
in no case, nor on auy pretext whatever, will
detachments bo sent without a commissioned
officer, who will be fully instructed by his Port
t'omtnander.
# » * *
VIII. District Uvuiinauilers will Instruct Post
t'ommanders in their duties, and the relative
position of tile civil and military powers. They
will furnish theia with copies of the eircnlars
from these Ucaquiiarb rs, of August 26th, and
Qcttlber Ist ult., (tjie latjer of which was for
warded September fjtb, to District Command
ers), in which the Instructions of the War De-
artment are set forth iir full. They will
impress on Tost Commanders that they are to
act in aid and co operation, and in subordination
to the civil authorities; that they are to exercise
discretion and judgment, unbiased by political
or other prejudices ; that their object should be
exclusively to preserve the peace and uphold
law and order, and they must bo satisfied such
is tho object of the civil officer calling on them
for aid, that they must in ail cases where time
will permit, apply for instruction to superior
authority, but they must at all hazards preserve
the peace, and not be restrained by technical
points, when, in their conscientious judgment
under-the fuloliabirvc set forth, it is their duty to
act. Post Commanders, on being notified of tho
proposed' lidding of political meetings, may
send an efluer, and if necessary a detachment,
to watch the proceedings and see that tbe peace
is preserved.
IX. To the people of the several States com
posing the Department, the Major General Com
maadißg Appeal* that they will co-operate with
him and the civil authorities in sustaining law
and order, in preserving the peace and iu avoid
ing those scenes of riot and bloodshed, and tho
wanton destruction of property and life, which
has already, in some instances, been enacted in
tbc Department. He urges abstinence from all
inflammatory and incendiary appeals to the
passions; tHseountonanciJig tbe keeping open of
liquor shops on days of political meetings and of
electron; the abstaining from carrying arms,
and asserting the individual right of construing
laws by force es arms. No just cause is ever
advanced by resort to violence. Let there be
charity and forbearance among political oppo,
nents, whatever may be the result; let each
good citizen determine that all who, under the.
law, have the right to the bsßot shall exercise it
undisturbed. If there arc disputed points of
law, let them bo referred to the Courts, and let
not mobs Or political elubs, or other irresponsible
bodies, eomtrue and undertake to execute the
law. This appeal is made in the earnest hope
that the Major General Commanding can rely
on the good sense aud correct judgment of tbe
mass of tbe people, aud that he will not be com
pelled to resort to tho exercise of the power wilh
which he is intrusted, and which he wilt most
reluctantly employ. , But he thinks it his duty
to make knoivn. that so far as the power under
his command will admit, he will not permit the
feaee to be broken, and that he will not be
restrained in tho cqnecieptious discharge of his
duty by technicalities of laws ma I® when the
present auamutous condition of affairs were
neither anticipated or provided for.

Messrs. BROWN. COOMBS & CO., Pi oprie

eauand Foreign Patents. Mr. HenuTT.BndWN,
of this firm, lias liftd more than t u eiity two years'
experience in that prefessian J> both iu this country
and Europe, and bgi long practice, has mado
him personally ktWAvn to thousands of inven
tors amt patentees. Tho applicutbips foe the
patents upon many of the greater'upd more im
portant hi ventionaolthe.preitentcchtary have been
prepared by him. Messrtt. Brown, Coombs & Co.,
ar« thoroughly familiar with all the rules and re
gulatioiia instituted for tbc rapid tiausaction of
business with the United States Patent Office, and
the general practice iu the i’ateut Bureaus of van-'
<>us European countries; aud this knowledge ren
ders them confident t hat their post experience, with
rlieir present nueqtialeil facilities, euubles them to
elaborately and yet speedily prepare all the docu
ntetrts required by law in applications for patents,
and to promise their cheats an absolute certainly
ofsuccesxni Iheujellbrts fog,
inventions that are really now iind'useful. Parti
cular eafb is given to the executioir-of the accurate
dratcinys which must always accompany every
appltcaiion-for a patent, and they employ none Intt
the most ellicrcut di aiiglitsmeu. The best evidence
of the manner hi which Messrs. BltoWX, Coombs
A. Co.'s bwtness is performed, is, that- the "Amer
ican Artisan Patent Agency, ' during the three
years qf its exisbsnoe, has been the most sttcceisful
■in stile Hou off he kind erer establishrd.
The principal offices of Messrs. Bftuwx. Coombs
& Co. are sit Rated at. 189 Broadway, opposite John
street, New York,iu the most central part of the
city. Tliis location is one of very easy access by
stranger's inasmuch as ir is withiy a stone's tlntiw
from the City Hall. AU inventory temporarily so
lonniiug in the metropolis arc invited to visit this
establishment. 1 n|t he majority of instance nomodel
or drawing of an invention will be neefesaary on
the first interview, as a mere oral description by
the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such
aknowledge of his invention us will enable Messrs.
Brown, Coombs &. Co. to definitely determine
whetbera machine or process is new or old —paten-
table or not. Tbe office houi? are from 9 a.m.
to 5 r. M.
Messrs. BroWK, Coombs & Co.one prepared to
furnish to persons residing at a distance from New
York—free of charge—written opinions as to
whether inventions contain auy features of paten
table novelty: to do this they simply require a
Sketch or rough model ofthb machine or other in
vention that is supposed to be new, together wijh
a brief description of the same, and as soon as pos
sible thereafter a tetter of the best advice is mail
ed to the person desiring the information. These
opinions are formed from their own mature exper

Messrs. Perry Darisd; Son, I'roviddSicc, H. L:
Dear Sira—During a residence of some ten
years as a Missionary in Slam yud Lliina, I found
your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for that tearful scourge, ilia Ctiuletn.
In administering the mefimifc, I found if most
effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a
gill of hot wr.ter sweetfiuei with oogar, then,
after about fifteen minutes,‘begin to give a table
spoonful ot tbe tuns inlxtnip every minute until
relief wns obtained. Apply hut applications to
the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain
Killer, clear and mb jjie limlis briskly. Os those
who had t he cholera, imd took the medicfiie faith
ftiWyiu the Way Mated above, eight out of ten
recovered. Yours, truly,
HTELFORD.

Killer. Sold.by all medicine dealers Price, 25

more about the Pain Killer. I consider it*a oery
valuable mediciuey and always keep it on hand.
I have travelled a good deal bine,e 1 haveneen in
Kansas, and never without taking it with hk.
In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1819, and with better success than auy
other medicine ; 1 also used it here for choleqi in
1855, with the same g'ood result.
