followed on Bttturday morning, when
coming to our knowledge, the wagon
was being overhauled, and the stolen

The party was taken into custody by
the She: iff, bat, upon timing to trial,
only one was recognised as the guilty

of the affair, tfio freodman in charg’e of
the wagon, had btought cotton into

been employed by the Burglar to c»rry

Jimmie Brown, the Printer’s :, devil”
and the new Editor, are at legge/heads
already. Jimmie says the little Editor
wants to cram too much work upon him
altatonce. He says it’s no little mat
ter to set type, and if the Editor don’t
betitve it be can try his hand. The
Editor proposes to undertake the job,
provided the “Devil” will dictate, which
results in proving that the Editor knows
nothing about setting type.

Wukrias, Notwithstanding tbe Executive
Proclamation ol September ]4lh, 1868, many
lawless acts have occurred iu violation there
of, whereby the lives and property ofci'ixena
have been destroyed, the right ol ftee speech
impaired, the performance ol the duties of the
offlres to which citizens have been elected,
deuied, the lives of uitixens so threatened aa
to cause them to abaudou their homes and

and property is the paramount duly of Gov -
crnin eut, and shall be impartial aDd com

Ami Wiierzas, The Sheriff of each couuty
is, by law, charged with the preserra'ion of
life, property and (mace, in eaoli county ;
Now, Therefore, I, Rufus B. Bullock, Gov.
ernor, and Commander-in Chief of the armv
and navy of the State of Georgia, and of the
militia thereof, do hereby issue this, my proc
lamation, charging aud commanding the said
Sheriffs, and each and every other civil offi.
eer iu every county io this State, to see to it
that the lives and pioporty of all citixens, and
the peace of tbe community, aee preserved ; -
and that al! persons are prot.ced in tbe tree
exercise of their civil and political rights and
privileges. And, further, to make known
that lor failure in the performance of duty,
the 8 tid Sheriffs and oiher civil office's will
| be held to a strict accountability, under the
law. And, to charge upon every person, res
ident in this State, that they render prompt
| aud willing obedience to the said Sheriffs and
other civil officers, under all circnmttanee*
whatsoever; and that they demand from said
officers, protection, when threatened or die*
i turbed, in their person or property, or with
denial of political or civil rights ; and, that
failing to recelre such protection, they report
the facts to this department.
The following extract from General Orders

Atlanta, Ga. October, 8, 1868. [
General Ordert A’o. 27.
“Whereas, by an act of Congres of the
United States, approved March 2nd, 1865, it
{ is made the duty ot the military authority to
] preserve the peace at the polls at any elec
tion that may be held iu any of the Stales ;
; and, Whereas, this duly has become the more
j imperative, from the existing political ex-
I cilemenl iu the public mind, from the recent
I orgatiizriiou of civil govoinuieut, and from j
the tact that Congress has, by statue, prohili
; ited the oiganizilion of military forces in the
several States ol thir Department, it is there
fore, ordered, •
“That the several District commanders will,
as soon as practicable, ou the receipt of this
Older, distribute the troops under their com
mands as follows :
• In the District of Georgia :
One company 16th Infantry, to Albany.
One company 16th Inlamry, to Columbus.
One company 16ib Infantry, to Macon.
One company 16th Infantry, to Augusta.

One company (0,) 6ih cavairv, to A'hens.
Tne company at Lavannah to be reinforced,
ebwuld occasion require, by such number ot I
tbs men at Fort Fuiaski as can be spared
liom the post.
« * * * * »
“Detachments, when necessary, may be j
made to points in tbe vicin ty of each post ; \
but in no case, nor ou auy pretext wha ever, j
will detachments be seut without acotntnis- J
-toned ollioer, who will be fully msliucied by !
his post comtnauder.
“The troops will be considered as in the i
field, and supplied with the .necessary camp
equippage; the men to be furnished with j
common tents if ptacticable, aud if not prac !
Licable, with sheltsr tents. Commanding offi- |
cera are permitted to hire quarters, tempora
rily, wben it can be done for reasonable
rates ; but this will not preclude the necessi
ty of carrying tents, as tbe commands, iu all
cases, must be iu readiness to move at the
shortest notice, with all supplies required for
tbeir efficiency.
“District Commanders will instruct Post
Commanders in their duties, and tbe relative
position of the civil and military powers
They will imprest on Post Commanders that
they are to act in aid and co-operation, and
iu subordination to the civil autnorities; t tat
they are to exercise discretion aud judge- j
meui, unbiased bv political or other preju- -
dices ; that their object should be exclusively
to preserve tbe peace and uphold law aud |
ot der, and they must be sati-fied such is the ]
object of the civil officer calling on them for |
aid ; that they must in all uasss where lime
w'U permit, apply lor instruction to superior
authority, but they must at all hazards pre- :
serve the peace, and not be restrained by '
technical points, when, in their conscientious
judgment uDder the rules above set forth, it is
their duty to act. Post Commauders on be
ing notified of the proposed holding of polit
ical meetings, may send an offioer, and if nec
essary a detachment, to watch the proceed
ings and see that the peace is preserved.
“To the people of the several States com
posing the Department, the Major General
Commauding appeals that thev will co oper
ate with hint aud the civil authorities iu sus
taining law and order, iu preserving the p-ace
and in avoiding those scenes of riot aud
bloodshed, and the wanton destruction of
properly and life, which has already, io some
instances, been enacted in the Department.
He utges abstinence from all inflimmaiory
aud incendiary appeals to the passions; dis
countenancing the keeping open ol liquor
shops on days of political meetings and of
election ; the abstaining from carrying arms,
and asserting the individual right of conStm
jug laws by force of arms. No just cause is
ever advanced by resort to violence. Let
there be charity and forbearance among po
litical opponents, whatever may be the re
sult ; let each good citizen determine that all
who, under the law, have the right to the bal
lot shall exercise it undisturbed. If there are
disputed points of law, let them be referred
to the Courts, aud let not mobs or political
cluba, or other irreeponsible bodies, construe
and undertake to execute the law. This ap
peal is made in the earnest hope that the Ma
jor General Commandisg can rely on the good
Sense and correct judgment of the mass of the
people, and that he will not be compelled to
resort to the exercise of the power with
which be is intrusted, and which he will most
reluctantly employ. But he thinks it his duty
to make known, that so far as the power un
der his command will admit, he will not per
mit tho peace to be broken, and that he will
•ot be restrained in the coscientious dis
charge of his duty by technicalities of laws
made when the present anomalous condition
of affairs ware neither anticipated or provid- t
ed for.”

I HAVE THE LARGEST AND FINEST assortment of Cooking Stoves
that has ever been brought to this market, and I will sell them below Macon
prices, with freight, Ac., added. I invite all, and especial]) the ladies, to call
and examine my stock; and w uld advise every family who Las n ne, to purcLsse
one as soon as convenient, as tb6 demand is so very great, ibe frices will certain
ly increase during the coming winter. Sell, or draw on one Bale Cotton,
AND BUY YOU A GOOD STOVE WITH FURNITURE AND FIXTURES
enough to last a life-time. You will have no more use for negro cooks, who are
becoming a nuisance, but every lady can do her own cooking with pleasure, even
with their “Sunday harness" on, without stoopiog or straioiog, and without
scorching, smoking, greasing or smutting ber hands and fare, or dress.
Tne following are some of my best patterns of S oves. I have sold a great
many of them, and every ore has given entire satisfaction :
BARLEY SHEAF, lined throughout with Tin U-flectorv. FORE'T QUEEN,
with six holes and Hot closet. IR.OX WITCH, with all the new improvemeLt-!.
ORIENTAL, UED JACKET, PALMETTO, DELTA, FAST REV PREMIUM, Ac.
If parties should want any Cooking or Healing Stove which I havo not oa
baud, I will order and sej) it lower than it can be bought iu New York, or any
other place, at retail, aud laid down here.
