military organizations, while in Charleston.

and enforce the following enactments:
The laws against teaching negroes to read
and write the laws interdicting selling spir.
its to negroes; the laws prohibiting their
fine and flaunty dressing; the law prohibit
ing the return of free negroes to the Slave
State after they have once left it; suspendng
