Whereas, By an act of Congress of the United States, approved March 2d, 1865, it is made the duty of 'be military authority to pre erve the peace at the polls at any election that may be held in any of the States ; and Whereas, this duty has become the more imperative, from the existing political excitement in the pubiic mind, from the recent organization of civil gov ernment, and from the fact that Congress has, by statute, prohibited the organization of mili tary forces in the several States of this Depart ment, it is therefore, ordered, I. That the several District Commanders will, as soon as practicab’c, on the receipt of this order, distribute the troops under their com mands as follows : * * * »'*..* »;• in I be District of South Carolina: One company Bth Infantry, to Chester.

I‘iniriut Commanders will instruct Post 1 'iiimanders in their duties, and the relative I ■■Hinn of the civil and military powers. They hull furnish them with copies of the circulars r >ui these llcaquuarters, of August 25th, and "I'tober Ist ult., (the latter of which was for ivsrded September 15tb, to District Command rrs), in which the instructions of the War De- Inrlment uro set forth in full. They will impress on Post Commanders that they are to :r t in aid and co operation, and in subordination t" the civil authorities;’that they are to exercise 1.-cretion ai d judgment, unbiased by political "r other their object should be exclusively to preserve the peace and uphold hw and order, and they must be satisfied meh i- the object of the eivit officer calling on them nr ai l, that they must in all 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 p -ini.-, when, in their conscientious judgment under the rules above sot forth, it is their duty to ." i.

LX. To the people of the several States com p '.-iiig the Department, the Major General Cvm rannding appeals that they will co-operate with him and the civil authorities in sustaining law ■old order, in preserving the peace and in avoid i".r those scenes of riot and bloodshed, and the anion destruction of property and life, which has already, in some instances, been enacted in I'iic Department. He urges abstinence from all inflauimatory and incendiary appeals to the passions; discountenancing the keeping open of liquor shops on days of political meetings and of election; the abstaining from carrying arms, and asserting the individual right of construing laws by force of arms. No just cause is ever advanced by resort to violence. Lot there be charity and forbearance among political oppo nents, whatever may bo the result; lot each irood citizen determine that all who, under the law, have the right to the '-allot shall excreiso it undisturbed. If there are disputed points of law, let them be relorred to the Courts, and let nut ui'ihs or political clubs, or other irresponsible '"’dies, construe and undertake to execute the law. This appeal is made in the earnest hope 'hat the Major General Commanding ean rely " u the good sense and correct judgment of the •nuss of the people, and that he will not be com pelled to resort to tho exercise of the power with which he is intrusted, and which he will most elucuntly employ. But he Hiinks it his duty make known, that so far as the power under •'is command will admit, he will not permit the leace to he broken, and that he will not be •’’trained in the conscientious discharge of his " B, J by technicalities of laws made when the Present anauialuus condition of affairs were ••either anticipated or provided for. order of Major General Mcapk ; R.

The American Artisan UNITED STATES AND FOREIGN PATENT AGENCY. 189 Broadway, New York. Messis. BROWN, COOMBS & CO.. Proprie tors of tho AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their best services to inventors, as Solicitors of Ameri can and Foreign Patents. Mr. Henry T. Brown, of this firm, lias had more than twenty-two gears' experience in that profession, both in this country and Europe, and his long practice bus made him personally known to thousands of inven tors ami patentees. The applications for the patents upon many of the greater aud more im portant in ventions of the present century have been prepared by him. Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co., are thoroughly familiar with all the rules and re gulations instituted for the rapid tiansaction of business with the United States Patent Office, and the general practice in the Patent, Bureaus of vari ous European countries: end this knowledge ren ders them confident that their post experience, with their present nnequaled facilities, enables them to elaborately and yet speedily prepare all the docu ments required by law in applications for patents, and to promise their clients an absolute certainty of soccer, im tbeirjeiforts to obtain Letters,Patent for inventions that aie really new and useful. Parti cular care is given to the execution oftbo accurate drawings which must always accompany every application for a patent, and they employ none blit the most efficient draughtsmen. The best evidence of the manner in which Messrs. Bbown, Coombs &, Co.'s business is performed, is, that the “Amer ican Artisan Patent Agency,” during the three years of its existence, has been the. most successful institution of the kind ever established. The principal offices of Messrs. Brown. Coombs & Co. are situated at 18!) Broadway, opposite John street, New York, in the most central part of the city. This locution is one of very easy access by strangers inasmuch as it is within a stone's throw from tlie City Hall. All inventors temporarily so joiiruing in the metropolis are invited to visit this establishment. Injtlie majority of instance no model o. drawing of au invention will be necessary on the first interview, as a mere oral description by the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such aknowledge of bits invention as will enable Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co. to definitely determine wliethera machine or process is new or old—paten table or not. The office hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 r. M. Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co. are prepared to lurnish to fiersoos residing at a distance from New York—free of charge— written opinions as to whether inventions contain any features of paten table novelty; to do this they simply require a sketch or rough model of the machine or other in vention that is supposed to be new, together with a brief description of the same, and as soon as pos sible thereafter a let ter of the best advice is mail ed to the person desiring the information. These opinions are formed from their own mature exper ience; but if au inventor desires to know, positively, •whether his incipient idea has ever been embodied in a machine or process already jmtented, bis wisest course will lie to have a preliminary e.ramiiialion made fit the United States Patent office by Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special all the records of that institution, and then promptly forward a full and carefully written report as to the patentability of the invention uu der examination. For this labor the small fee of $5 is payable in advance -, aud the i emittance should be accompanied by a sketch of the invention and a few lines of writing describing the same, and distinctly stating those pointsuf noveltv which tlie inventor desires to have protected by Letters Patent Patents for new and useful inventions are now granted for the term of seventeen years The first instalment offbe Government tee js |ls, which 'on the power-of attorney-)-*is payable tn advance, on applying for the patent; and |2O additional are due to the Government when Ute Letters Patent are allowed. The Agency fee is from $-'5 upward, ac cording to the labor involved; but in all cases our charges will be as moderate as possible in the pre paration of drawingsand all necessary documents. This fee is not payable until after the application has been prepared and the case is ready Io be sent, to Washington. Messrs. Brown. Coombs & Co. have a branchin Washington so that all applies tious made through them can have every necessary attention in their passage through the Patent office Inventors applying for patents must furnish models of their machines, whenever possible, for the inspection of the Examiners in the Patent Office; but if the invention is a chemical composi tion, samples of all the ingredients will be neces sary. Each of these should be marked with the in ventor's name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by express, prepaid), together with the first instalmen ofthe Government fee, to Messrs Brown, Coombs & Co. When the model is small and light, it can 1 be conveniently and cheaply sentby mail The model must not exceed one foot in any of itsdimens ions, unless it is of such a character that it is im practicable. Patents, except those for designs, are grimted on equal terms to citizens and all foreigners, except inhabitants of Canada and some others of tlie British American Provinces. Besides patents or new aud useful inventions, there are also granted patents for designs. Design-patents are not now, as formerly, limited strictly to ornamental configuration ; but under Section 11 of the Act of March 2,1861, any new form of any article, or any impression orjignre upon the mirfaee of any article or material, by whatever means or'process produced, can be patented. Un der this Act. patentees are entitled to the exten sion of their respective patents for tlie term of seven years from the day on which said patents shall ex pire, upon the same termsand restrictions as are now provided fortlie extensions of Letters Patent. Among the numerous subjects foi patents of this class may be particularly mentioned—castings of all metals, parts of machines, household tniniture and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds, coruices.and outer interior and exterior decor itious of buildings; also, designs for woven and printed fabrics, dress and upholstery trimmings, and bar ncss labels and traile mark’s for medicines, pcr fumery, and all preparations, compositions, or merchandi-e, put up in bottles, boxes, or other packages, are suitable sulijtcta; also, the tonus of such bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, and envelopes, likewise all works ofart,,as statuary, busts, compositions in alto or basso relievo. The Government, fee on a design-patent for 3) years is jll); 7 years, sls; 11 years, S3O. No models of designs are. required ; but duplicate drawings or photographs must be furnished- The specification to accompany the drawings or photographs re quires to be prepared with great, care. Messrs Brown, Coombs & Co. give very particular at tention to this branch of their business. Their charge for preparing applications for design patents is generally about sls. Design patents are only granted to American citizensor to aliens who have resided one year in tlie United States and made oath of their intention to become citizens thereof. The facilities of Messrs. Bsown, Coombs & Co for obtaining patents iu the various European countries are equal if not superior to those of any other in the United States. With regard to their qualifications for such business, it need only be stated that Mr. Brown has had the prepara tion of more European applications than any otliei person in this country, Messrs. Brown, Coombs A Co., besides having a branch office in Washington, have their own agencies in the principal capitals of Europe. A circular relating to foreign patent business will be furnished free on application personally or by mail. Messis.

ALMOST EVERY CASE * CURED WITH PAIN KILLER. o I J EAD THE FOLLOWING'LE’H'ER FROM 1 t Rev. R. Telford. Missionary in China, now visiting his home in Pennsylvania: Washington, Pa., June 25,1866 Messrs. Perry Davis it Son Providence, R. 1..- Dear Sirs—During a residence of sonic ten years as a Missionary in Siam and ('llina, I found your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for thqt fearful scourge, the Cholera. In administering the medicine, I found it most effectual to give n teaspoonfnl of Pain Killer in a gill of hot wrier sweetened with sugar: then, after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table spoonful of the same mix!me every mrnutc until relief was obtained Apply hot applications to the extremities. Batlin me stomach with Pain Killer, clear iiml rub th-.- 'ini! briskly. Os those who had the cholera, and t<. >k tho medicine faith fully in the way stated uiiovc, eight out of ten recovered. Yeurs, truly, R TELFORD. If an attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or Cramp Colic, don't delay tlie use of the Pain Killer. Sold by al! medicine dealers. Price, 25 cents, st) cents, and $1 per bottle. Manhattan, Kansas, April 17, 1866. Gentlemen— * * " \ want to say a little more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a eery valuable medicine, and always keep it ouhand. I have travelled a good deal since I have been iu Kansas, and never without, taking it with me. In my practice I used it freely for the Cholera, in 181!), aud with better success Gian any other meilieine ; I also used it, here for cholera in 1855, with the same goail result. Truly, yours, A- HUNTING, M. 1). Swato, China. Cholera! * * * I regret to say that the cholera has prevailed here of late to a ftarl'nl extent.. For the last three weeks, from ten to fifty or sixty fatal case, each day has bebn re ported. I slioiijd add that the Ficin Killer, sent recently from the Misei ni Homie, has been used with considerable suci-i aa during this epidemic. If taken in season is generally effectnal in check ing the disease, Rev. CHARLES HARDINUi, Sholapore, India | From the Portland Monthly.| Summer Complaint and Dygeukry. Bowel complaints seem just now to Im, the prevailing .■lenient, and any medicine llaif is everywhere ucceptablc, and 'that is reliable; is a veyi desirable acquisition. From what wvtliave seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis' Pain Killer is this desideratum. For tho best method of usingit, ife quote from the directions: “For common bowel complaints, give one tea spoonhil iu a gill of new milk and molasses, in equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose for c hildren, according Io the age. If the pain lie severe, bathe the bowels aud back with the medi cine. This mode of treatment is good in casts of tlie cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Re peat the dose every hour “The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery cured was by taking cue spoonful of the Pain Killer in one gill of milk mnl molas.-es stirred well together am* a—— l 1 J .. . TV— the dose be repeated every hour until the patient is relieved.’ 1 If every person who has reason to fear thid disease would provide themselves with a bottle of t his medicine, ami use as occasion required, we believe a great amount of guttering and sickness would be saved. je!2—2m Special Notice. 9 Exz ■ IrTßsr F' - ‘ Mi '■B ■ I '-® ' ' 1 a Spectacles Rendered Useless.

TURNER, (Colored.) Delivered before that Body September 3d, 1868. —— jVr. iSjieaker : Before proceeding to argue this question upon its intrinsic merits, I wish the Members of this House to understand the position that I take. I hold that lam a member of this l>ody. Therefore, sir, I shall neither fawn nor cringe before any parly, nor stoop to bey them for my rights. Some of my colored fellow-members, in the course of their remarks, took occasion to appeal to the sympathies of on the opposite side, and to eulogize their character for magnanimity. It reminds me very much, sir, of slaves begging under the lash. I inn ftere to demand my rights, and to hurl thunderbolts at the men who would dare to cross the threshold of my manhood. There is an old aphorism which says, “Fight tlie Devil with ’’ n»i/l I ulioitL) fbo vuln T SW L*V own weapon. The scene presented in this House, to-day, is one unparalleled in the history of the world. From this day, back to the day when God breathed the breath of lite into Adam, no analogy for it can be found. Never, in the history of the world, has a man been arraigned before a liody clothed with legislative, judicial or executive functions, charged with the offence of being of a darker hue than his fellow-men. I know that ques tions have been before the-Courts of this country’ and of other countries, involving topics not altogether dissimilar to that which is being discussed here to-day. But, sir, never, in all the history of the great nations of this world—never before— has a man Wen arraigned, charged with an offence committed by the God of Heaven himself. Cases may be found where men have been deprived of their rights for crimes and misdemeanors; but it has remained for the State of Georgia, in the very heart of the nineteenth century, to call a man before the bar, and there charge him with an act for which he is no more responsible than for the head which he carries upon his shoulders. The Anglo-Saxon race, sir, is a most surprising one. No man has ever been more deceived in that race than I have been for the last three weeks. I was not aware that there was in the character of that race so much cowardice, or so much pusillanimity. The treachery which has been exhibited by gentlemen belonging to that race has shaken my confidence in it more than anything that has come under my observation from the day of my birth. What is the question at issue? Why, sir, this Assembly, to-day, is discussing and deliberating on a matter upon which Angels would tremble to sit in judgment; there is not a Cherubim that sits around God’s Eternal Throiie, to-day, that would not tremble—even were an order issued by the Supreme God himself -to come down here and sit in judgment on- my m.-mhood. Gentlemen may look at tliis question hi whatever light they choose, and with just as much indifference as they may think proper to assume, but I tell you, sir, that this is a question which will not die to-day. Tliis event shall l>e remem bered by posterity for ages yet to come, and while the sun shall continue to climb the hills of heaven. Whose Legislature is this? Is it a white man’s Legislature, or is it a black man’s Legislature? Who voted for a Consti tutional Convention, in obedience to the mandate of the Congress of tho United States? Who first rallied around the standard of Reconstruction? Who set the ball of loyalty lolling in the State of Georgia? And whose voice was heard on the hills anil in the valleys of this State? It was the voice of the brawny-armed negro, with the few humanitarian-hearted white men who came to our assistance. I claim the honor, sir, of having been the instrument of convincing hundreds —yea, thousands of white men, that to reconstruct under the meas ures of the United States Congress was the safest ami tlie best course for the interest of the State. Let us look at some facts in connection with this matter. Did half the white men of Georgia vote for this Legislature? Did not the great bulk of them fight, with till their strength, the Constitution under which we are acting? And did they not fight against the organization of this Legislature? Ami further, sir, did they not vote against it? Yeh, sir! And there are persons in this Legislature, to-day, who are ready to spit their poison in my face, while they themselves opposed, with all their power, the ratification of this Constitution. They question my right to a seat in this body, to represent the people whose legal votes elected me. Tliis objection, sir, is an unheard of monopoly of power. No analogy can be found for it, except it lie the case of a man who should go into my house, take possession of my wife and children, and then tell me to walk out. I stand very much in the position of a crimi nal before your bar, because I dare to be the exponent of the views of those who sent inc here. Or, in other words, we are told that if black men want to speak, they must speak through white trumpets; if black men want their sentiments expressed, they must be adulterated and sent through white messengers, ■who will quibble, and equivocate, and evade, as rapidly as the pendulum of a dock. If this be not done, then the black men have committed an outrage, and their Representatives must be denied the l ight to represent their constituents. The great tpiestion, «ir, is this: Am T a. man? H I am -uch, I claim the rights of a man. Am 1 not a man, bt>cause I | < ONCI.UDKD ON FOURTH PAGE.] NO 385 WEEKLY REPUBLIC AN-$2.00 a Year--SUB SCRIBE I
