fore, subject TO arrest and deiemion until the cause
or necessity is removed. All snch arrested parties
will be sent, a. usual 10 the Marshal Gene'
rail- with a statement Of the facts in each case.
The General Commanding takes this occasion to
remind the officers snd soldiers Of this army that we
are engaged IN supporting the Constitution and laws
against their authority that we are not engaged In
war of rapne, revenge, or subjugation; that this
il not contest against populations, but against
armed forces and political organizations tia. it is
struggle carried on within the United States, and
should be conducted by upon the highest princi-
pies known to Christian civilization.
Since this army commenced active operations,
persons of African decent, Including those held to
servlce or labor under State laws have always been
received, protected, and employed ~ laborers ~
wages. Hereafter It shall be the duty OF the Pro-
vost General to came lists TO be made OF all
persons of African descent employed in this army as
labOres for IN litary purposes such lists oeng mace
sufficiently accurate aud in detail to show from whom
such persons shall have come.
Persons 20 subject and 10 employed have always
underetod that after being received into the military
service of the United States, in any capacity, they
could never be reclaimed by their former holders
Except upon such understanding on their part the
order of the President TO this class OF persons
would be imperative. The General Commanding
therefore feels authorized to declare 70 all such en-
ploy ees, that they will receive permanent military
projection against any compulsory return TO condi'
iion Of servitude.

No officers were among the Yankees taken by our
