SUNDAY MORNING November 1,„ 1868
.1 VESTED HYMN.
The following is an unpublished poem
from the pen of General H ai.pinb. Its sen
timent seems peculiarly appropriate to the
circumstances under which it now, for the
first time, meets the public eye ;
The evening bells of Sabbath fill
The dusky silence of the night;
And through our gathering gloom distill
Sweet sparkles of immortal light:
Such hours of peace as these requite
The labors of the weary week;
When thus with souls refreshed and bright,
Forgiveness of our sins we seek I
Oh ! help ns, Jesus, to conform
Our spirits, thoughts and lives to thine !
Bevond this earthly strife and storm
Oh! make Thy star of Bove to shine !
When we are sinking to the brine
Os doubt and care, oh come, that we,
As Peter did, may safe resign
Our sinking helplessness to Thee!
Thy Godhead—whence all glory flows--
Thoa didst not scruple to abase,
To rescue from undying woes
The sons of a rebellious race!
Who can unmoved, unweeping trace
Thy meek obedience to Ills will,
Whose sole appointed means of grace,
Thou didst, even to the Cross, fulfill.
Our wayward footsteps wander wide,
Pursuing joys’ delusive rays;
And, in our hours of health and pride,
Too oft from Thee our spirit strays;
But soon descend the darker days,
When youth and strength their lustre hide—
And, journeying through the pathless maze,
Wc turn to our neglected Guide.
Lead back, oh Lord ! Thy wandering sheep—
Oh guide us gently to Thy fold.
Instruct us all Thy laws to keep,
And unto Thine our lives to mould.
For we arc weak, and faith grows cold—
Nor ever sleep the Tempter's powers;
Thou art our only stay and hold—
Through Thou alone'can Heaven be ours.
A darker shade, a denser gloom
Descends on all the folded flowers;
While silent as the voiceless tomb,
Above them roll the midnight hours;
To-morrow’s dawn, and their perfume
Again Will fill their glowing bowers—
Lord, after death so bid us bloom,
Where no frost chilis, no tempest lowers.

HnanqiiAHTERS Department of tub South, 1
Atlanta, Ga., October 8,'1868- j
General Ordere No. 27.
Whereas, By an act of Congress of the
United States, approved March 2d, 1865, it is
made the duty of tho military authority to pre
servo the peace at the polls at any election that
may be hold in any of the States; and ll’Asirtz,
this duty has become tho more imperative, from
the existing political excitement jn the pubiic
mind, from the recent organisation of civil gov
ernment, and from tho fact that Congress has,
by statute, prohibited the organisation of mili
tary forces in tho several States of this Depart
ment, it is therefore, ordered,
I. That tho several District Commanders will,
as sonn as practicabie, on tho receipt of this
order, distribute the troops under their com
mands as follows :
» * » » * »
In the District of South Carolina:
One company Btlv Infantry, to Chester.
One company Sth Infantry, to Unionville.
Ono company Sth Infantry, to Uimrcnsville.
One company Stu Infantry, to tbbcvillo.
One company Sth Infantry, to Newberry,
•file company Sth Infantry, to Edgefield.
Ono company 6th Infantry, to Beaufort.
One company 6th Infantry, to Georgetown.
One company 6lh Infantry, to 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 16th Infantry, to Augusta.
Ono company 16th Infantry to Washington
Wilkes county.
One company 16th Infantry, to Americus.
One company 16th Infantry, to Thomasville.
000 company fC) sth cavalry, to Athens,
1 >e company a t Savannah to be reinforced,
should occasion require, by Such number of men
at Fort Pulaski as can bo spared from tho post.
»»'* . • * *
11. Detachments, when necessary, may bo
muderto points in the vicinity of each post; but
in no case, nor on any pretext whatever, will
detachments be sent without a commissioned
officer, who will bo fully instructed by hia Post
Commander
»»,» « • »
VIII. District Couimanders will instruct Post
Commanders in their ikitiee, and the relative
position us the civil and military powers. They
Will furnish them with copies of the circulars
from these HeaquuarUrs, of August. 25th, nnd
Ootober Ist ult., (the latter of which was for
warded September 15th, to District Command
««), in which the instructions of the War De
purttaeut are set forth in full. They will
impress on Post Commanders- that they arc to
act in aid andbo 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
or aid, that they must in all cases where time
will permit, apply far instruction to superior
authority, but they must at all hatards preserve
the peace, and not bo restrained by technical
points, when, in their conscientious judgment
under the rules above set forth, it is their duty to
act. Post Commanders, on being notified of the
proposed holding of political meetings, may
send an officer, and if necessary a detachment,
to watch the proceedings and see that the peace
is preserved.
IX. To the people of the several States com
posing the Department, the Major Uenejai Com
manding appeals that they will co-operate with
him and the civil authorities in sustaining law
Sind order, in preserving the peace aud in avoid
ing those scenes of riot and bloodshed, and the
wanton destruction of property and life, which
has already, in some instances, been enacted in
the Department. lie urges abstinence from all
inflammatory and incendiary appeals to the
passions; discountenancing the keeping open of
liquor shops on days of political meetings and of
election; th, .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. 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 ballot shall exercise it
undisturbed. If there arc disputed points of
law, let them be referred to the Courts, and let
net mobs or political elobs, orbther irresponsible
bodies, construe 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 and correct judgment of the
mass of the people, and that he will not be com
pelled to resort to the. exercise of the power with
which he Is intrusted, and which he will most
reluctantly employ. But he thinks it his duty
' to make known, that so far as the power under
hie command will admit, he will uot permit the
peace to b» broken, and that he vot bo
restrained in the cooscitmtioaz dischn:/eof his
duty by technicalities of laws male when the
present anamalous condition of affair? were
neither anticipated or provided for.

Atlanta, Georgia, Oct. 8, 1868. j
General Orders, No. 27.
“Whereas, by an act of Congress of tho United
States, approved March 2, 1865, it is made the
du,y of the military authority to preserve the
peace at the polls at any election which may be
held in any of tho States ; and, whereas, this
duty has become tho 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 the several States of this Department,
it is therefore ordered,
“That tho several District commanders will,
as soon as practicable, on tho receipt of this
order, distribute tho troops under their commands
as follows:
■»»»**
In the District of Georgia:
One company 16th Infantry, to Albany.
One company 16th Infantry, to Columbus.
One company loth Infantry, to Macon.
One company 16th Infantry, to Augusta.
One company 16th Infantry, to Washington,
Wilkes county.
One company 16th Infantry, to Americus.
Ono company (C), sth Cavalry, to Athens.
The company at Savannah to bo reinforced,
should occasion require, by such men at Fort
Pulaski as can be spared from the post.
* * * * »
“ Detachments, when necossAT”, >n»y be made
to points in the vicinity of each post; but in no
case, nor on any pretext whatever, wilt detach
ments be sent without commissioned officer, who
will be fully instructed by his post com
mander.
“The troops will be considered as in the field
and supplied with the necessary camp equipage
tne men to be furnished with common tents 1
practicable, and if not practicable, with shelter
tents. Commanding officers are permitted to
hire quarters, temporarily, when it can be done
for reasonable rates ; but this will not preclude
the necessity of carrying tents, as the commands,
in all cases, must be in readiness to move at the
shortest notice, with all supplies required for
Abair efficiency.
“ District Commanders will instruct Post Com
manders in their duties, and the relative position
of the civil and military powers. They will
impress on Post 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 be satisfied such is the
object of the civil officer calling on them for aid ;
that they roust in all cases, where time will
permit, apply for instruction to superior au
thority, but they must at all hazards preserve
tho peace, and not bo restrained by technical
points, when, in their conscientious judgment,
under the rules above set forth, it is their duty
to aet. Post Commanders on being notified of
the proposed holding of political meetings, may
send an officer, and it necessary a detach
ment, to watch the proceedings and see that the
peace is preserved.
“To the people of the several States compos
ing the Department, the Major General Com
manding appeals that they will co-operate 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 property and life which
has already, in some instances, been enacted in
this Department. He urges abstinence from all
inflammatory 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 over ad
vanced by resort to violence. Let there bo
charity and forbearance among political oppo
nents, whatever may be the result. Lot each
good citizen determine that all who, under the
aw, have the right to the ballot shall exercise it
undisturbed. If there are disputed points of
law, let them be referred to tho Courts, and let
not mobs or political clubs, or other irresponsi
ble bodies, construe and undertake to
execute tho law. This appeal is made in tho
earnest hope that the Major General Command
ing cun rely on tho good sense and correct
judgment of the mass of tho people, and that he
will not bo comp- ’led to resort to the exercise of
the power with w ’ch he is entrusted, and which
he will most reluctantly employ. But he thinks
it his duly to make known, that so far as the
power vidcr his command will admit, he will
not permit the peace to be broken, and that he
will not be restrained in the conscientious dis
charge of his duty by technicalities of laws made
when the present anomalous condition of affairs
were neither anticipated or provided for.”
