W.hkkkas. by the Proclamation of An-> drew Johnson, President of the United States, dated 17th of June A. D. 1860, I have been appointed Provisional Governor of the State of Georgia, with instructions to’ provide, at the earliest practicable peri od,’ eucli rules ar.il regulations us may be j necessary and proper for convening a Con vention ot the people, composed of dele gates to be clvoscr. by that portion of the people who are loyal to the United States and no others ; and also with all the pow- ; ers necessary and proper to enable .such ■ •loyal people of said State to restore-it to • its constsfitufionai,relations to the. Federal Government, and to present such a form of State Government as will ent.itle the State ‘ to* the guarantee’ ‘of the UrdtcJ States j therefor, and its people, to. the protection of the United States -against invasion,, in- 1 surrection an<l domestic-violence : . • • Now, therefore I, James Johnson* Prb viaionabGovernor of tire State of Georgia, j as'aforesnid, do byvirtue of the power in ffie .ye-sted as- aforesaid proclaim and declare-- j Ist: That an- electiou for delegates to a Uonvcntio'n will beheldoir the first Wed- nesday in October A. 1), iB6O, at the dif ferent precincts at whiclreiect-i ons fire di rected and authorized by law to be held for members of the Legislature. . ‘2d. That the thirty-seven counties in •the. State, which, by law in force prior to •the first of January, 1861, were- imitled.to two members of the of Represents . lives, shall be authorized and entitled to : elect each three delegates, and that the j remaining counties shall each be author** * zed. and entitled to elect two delegates to said Convention. ’ 3d.. That no person at such election shall . be qualified as an elector, or shall be elgi-, bie as a member of such Convention, unless lie shall have previously thereto, taken and subscribed the oath of Amnesty, as set. forth in the President’s Proclamation, of May 26th A. D, 186.5, and is. a vot.er quali fied as prescribed by the Constitution and laws of tile State of Georgia, in force iin-. mediately before the 19th of January, A. D; 1861,. the dn.te of the so called OrdD nance of Secession. 4th.’ That any two Freeholders qualified to tote at such election -as aforesaid, may act as managers of. the ejection at each of the precincts as and that in managing aad superintending such elees lion, they shall be governed by and pro ! c-e-cd under hlic laws-of the State regula ting and prescribing the election of room- Iters of the -Legislature, prior to the first :of January, 1861 ; Provided, that each of said managers, before entering oh the dus tics, prescribed, shall swear the other tru ly and faithfully to superintend and make : •'return.of’s,ai.d'e!ection according to law as aforesaid and.the requirements of.{.bis Proclamation, . “6th. That the delegates who shall be elected as aforesaid, shall assemble in C.<*n vent ion at tire city of Milledgeville, at 12 • o’clock-, meridian, on Hie fourth Wednes day of October, A. D. 1865 And whereas, The rebellion which has been’ waged by .iv portion of the people against, the government of the United States’ h.tis, in Its revolutionary-progress, deprived the people of the State of all civil government ; and whereas, the} 7 must re main. without civil officers and the admin istration of civil law until a State Govern ment'shall have been organized by -4he Convention called as aforesaid ; and where as. it is necessary in the’ meantime that domestic tranquility be ensured, and that the loyal people -be projected in all their rights of’ person and property, I do further proclaim and declare : • 1 st,'That no individual-by virtue of his oven .authority, shall inflict coporeal pua i'shme.nt on any person for.any'real or sups posed injury, whether such Injury relate yo persons or prope ty; and that in all •such cases, redress must be sought from • and given by ‘such military authority, as may.be invested with jurisdiction over the. ‘cases. • ’ 2d. That slavery is extinct, and invol* jantary servitude no longer exists. Hence ’ no person shall have control of the labor of another, other than such control as may lawfully result from indenture, the relation of parent and child, guardian and ward and the contract of hi ing, freely and fair ly made ; and that for a breach of duty, on the part of any one standing in these relations, the military authority will ad minister in a summary manner, adequate and proper relief under the laws of the land. | 3d. That all riotous or tumultuous as* semblages of the people, and also all as* ( semblages for unlawful purposes and un- j lawful objects, will be dispersed ; and to this end, if necessary, the military power of the Uuited States will be invoked. 4t.h. That the idea, if any such is enter*! tained, that private property will be dis tributed or parceled out is not only delu sive but dangerous and mischievous; and if any attempt should be made by any person or persons to effect such an object by violence or unlawful means, it will only secure to him or them speedy and merited punishment, 5. To the end that the people may qual ify themselves as voters, it will doubtless be the pleasure of the commissioned offi cers in the service of the United States, to have the oath of amnestj administered under the rules and regulations prescribed ■by the Secretary of State of the. United States and in this work, most earnestly desire and solicit the cheerful co-opera ticn |. of tile people, so ilat Georgia may specd ; jly. bo delivered of nil'!:-"’ rule : that she may once again reflate her own domestic .alfairs, and again *nj°y f ;iC blessings ot civil .government, md be hoard and felt j by her Senators M Representatives in !pi e councils of thenation. •. • Done at Milledge’ille. .flic Capitol of the State, on this, tie 1 Stli day ot July, in . • the year of our Lord e zhteen hundred and sixty five. :nd eighty ninth vpiir ot American InpeH'udouce 1 ‘ JAMF>’ JOH N’ t N. ; Provisiona Governor of Georgia. • By the Govern>r, , L.
