EXECUTIVE GtiRARTMENT, )
Milledgeville, April ith, 1S63. 5
To the General Assembly :
I herewith transmit copies of resolutions passed by the
Legislature of the State of Texas, which I have received by
the last mail. The Legislature of that State has, it seems,
had the subject of the indorsement o( the Confederate Debt
under consideration, and has refused to indorse ; but has
pledged the faith of that gallant State, should she from
any cause withdraw from the Confederacy before the debt
is paid, to then, assume and pay her pro rata part of it.
In the event a State should withdraw from the Confed
eration of States, the powers of Congress to impose and
collect taxes from her people to pay her proportion of the
debt, would cease; and if the State did not then assume
and pay her proportion of it, as a State, she would be guil
ty of bad faith. Every State in the Confederacy is there
fore bound in good faith, in the event she should ever retire
from the Confederacy, to assume and pay her part of the
debt; and the people of all are bound while they remain
in the Confederacy, to submit to the taxation imposed by
Congress for that purpose. As the Resolutions of the
State of Texas only affirm a principle about which there
can be no dispute, there can be no objection to the concur
rence of Georgia in these Resolutions as obligatory upon
her own people in case she should ever place herself in po
sition where the principle can be applicable.
As long, however, as the States remain confederated, the
Constitution confers upon Congress ample power over this
question: and it is, in my opinion, best to leave it where
the Constitution leaves it, and where our sister State of
Texas has left it. If Georgia and some other States, with
out any constitutional obligation to do so, indorse the Con
federate debt, and Texas and other States, without the vio
lation of any constitutional obligation, refuse to do so,
there is then no.concert and no equality between the States.
Again, suppose Congress, after the indorsement, refuses to
do its duty and assess the taxes necessary to pay the inter
est and finally extinguish the debt, and turns over the bur
den to the State legislatures, and part of the States which
have indorsed, should repudiate after the indorsement;
other States which refused to repudiate would he left with
a very unequal burden upon them. When Congress impo
ses the tax, the law acts upon the individuals of all the
States alike, and the Confederate collectors can compel
payment from individuals by levy and sale, if necessary,
without reference to the State governments. This equali
ses the burden among the people of all the States, and is
just and right. He who studies our system carefully, can
not tail to admire wisdom of our fathers who framed
the Constitution of the old Uo,... nn;en ^ -mil of the conven
tions which lately retained these great ]>n—• v i. w 0 f (.qual
ity and justice in our present Constitution.
While we should pledge ourselves most solemnly never
■txmpuAiate our proportion of the debt by refusing to pay
the taxes imposed in the constitutional manner lor its ex
tinguishment,' we should, in my humble judgment, leave
the responsibility of raising the money where the consti
tution places it.
So far as I am informed, neither Virginia, North-Carolina,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Louisiana, Arkansas nor
Texas, has agreed to the proposition to indorse. There
may be an exception in case of some one of these States;
if so, I have no information of the fact. Four States, Ala
bama, South-Oarolina, Florida and Mississippi, have agreed
to indorse ; the latter State subject to the action of her
next legislature. Of these four States, only two, Alabama
and Florida, agree on the plan and amount to be indorsed.
There is, therefore, no concert of action between the States,
and no equality in case part endorse and others refuse.
The constitutional plan of leaving the responsibility with
Congress, combines concert of action with perfect equality;
and in case Congress refuses to do its duty and make pro
vision for the payment of'the debt, the people have an am
ple remedy, by turning those who fail to do their duty, out
of power, and returning in their places, those who will re-
.gard their constitutional obligations and provide the means
to sustain the public credit.

REPORT
OF
Lt, Col. Ira R. Foster, Quartermaster Central,
OX TIIE
$1,500,000 Armor in. i r/ox
March 25tii, ISG3.
We have entered, quite largely, into contracts with fac
tories and tanneries. I would here take occasion to - state j
that the proprietors of these factories and tanneries, have i
in the main, shown themselves worthy of the great strug
gle in which we are engaged.
I have labored to my utmost ability to use the funds ap
propriated-, prudently and economically. Thus far I have
expended about $800,000. To meet contracts already en
tered into, will require about $400,000.
From present indications the appropriation already made i
will scarcely be sufficient to meet flit; pressing summer de- ;
mauds of our troops. If another appropriation be not !
made by which to provide in advance, a further supply of,
clothing, our troops will sufier more the coming whiter than
they did during the past. Prices are continually going up.
Owing to tiie increasing scarcity of material and the red un
deucy of our currency, the sooner contracts are entered in
to, and purchases made the better for the Srtate.
If it should he the intention of the Legislature to furnish ;
our destitute troops with clothing during the tear, the earlier j
their action tiie better. It will, I fear, be suicidal to in- wukffison
dulge the hope that our armies will be disbanded before the j Tlmrsd’yafterBank*
rigors of another winter will have set in. Our better poli
cy will lur to prepara far the SRtf Crisis, should it COlliC llpOl)
us. In view of our prospects in the future, and the alarm
ing bareness of our leather, hide, and wool markets, I have
been induced to send competent agents to .Savannah, Vicks
burg, and Texas, to purchase and ship these articles to me
to this place. I expect at an early day, unless the enemy
intercept our western transportation, to procure a sufficien
cy to supply our pressing demands next winter, provided I
am not ordered to abandon the enterprise. I have.already
purchased and put in process of tanning several thousand
pounds of green hides, which will be ready for use early in
the coming winter.
The leather and cloth, manufactured out of hides and
wool thus purchased, will be much less abundant next win
ter than the past, or even now, and will be of vital impor
tance to the State in shoeing and clothing her brave, but
destitute troops. Ill case the Legislature fails to make ad
ditional provisions for her troops in the field (which I feel
confident they will not do,) the products of these purcha
ses will be in gread demand, and the prices thereof very
high. In either case, the enterprise will he profitable tu the
State ; and in no wise can the State be the loser.
The noble women of Georgia have patriotically responded
to my appeal for socks ; for which they are entitled to the
country's gratitude. The appeal was made because the ar
ticle could not be had until they were manufactured by our
ladies. Already a large quantity has been received, and
we are daily receiving them. As will be seen above, sev
eral thousands have been issued.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
IRA R. FOSTER,
Quartermaster General,
State of Georgia.
