POSTAGE STANrs-IMPoRrANr TO TIE PUBLIC
There appears 10 be very general misappre
bensiou with regard to the "sct authorizins
payments in stamps and to prohibit circulation
Of notes Of less denomination than one dollar ;
which was approved July II, 1862.
Under the provisions Of this act, the secre-
tary Of the Treasury, and not The Postmasts,
General, Is directed to furnish postage and
other stamps to the assistant tressurers and
such desigustsd depositaries OF the United
States as the former may select to be excbang
ed by them, on application, for Unitsd Statet
notes; and from and after the lst day of Au-
gust next, such stamps shall be received In
payment Of all dues to the United States less
than Eve dollars, and shall be received 10 ex.
change for United States notes, when presented,
10 sums not less than five dollars, to any ssss-
tant treasurer or designated depostary selected
as aforesaid.
Hence this law does not make postage stamps
illegal tender" nor does 1t require postmas-
ters to receive them in exchange for United
States notes.
tis expected that the Secretary Of the Treas
ury will furnish postage stamps, to be used as
. circulating medium under the law, In such
form that they cannot be attached To letters or
other mailable matter, Such stamps will be
exchanged by postmastsrs for the regular post.
age stamps, besides being redeemabls 10 treas.
ury notes by assistant trsssurers and such des-
ignated depositariss as the Secretary Of the
Treasury may select.
No postage stamps can be thus exchanged st
post of{ices or redeemed by the Treasury De-
psrtment unless furnished through the agencies
Of said department. Postage stamps now sold
BY postmsstsrs are not exchsngesble or re-
deemsbls by them, aud II such stamps are
gummed to pasteboard or other paper which
soils or renders them unit TO be used In the
prepayment Of postage, they will be rejected
for postage, because when 10 soiled they can
not be distinguished from stamps that have
already been used Tor postage.

Exeoative Order.


The following order from the President hai
been embodied in . general order from the
office Of the Adjutant General, U. s. A., and
transmitted to the commanders Of the different
military departments.
Representations having been made 10 the
President by the ministers Of various foreign
Powers In amity with the United States, that
subjects Of such Powers have, during the pres.
ent insurrection, been obliged or required BY
military authorities to take an oath Of general
or qualified allegiance to this Government. 1t
Is the duty Of all aliens residing In the United
States to submit to and obey the laws, and res.
pect the authority Of the Government. For
any proceeding or conduct Inconsistent with
this obligation, and subversive Of that authori-
ty, they may rightfully be subjected to military
restraints when this may be necessary. But
they cannot be requiredstO take an oath Of al
legiance to this Government, because II con-
ficts with the duty they owe to their own SOW.
ereIgns. All such obligations heretofore taken
are therefore RENTED and annulled. Military
commanders will abstain from imposing simi-
lar obligations In future, and will In lieu there
OF. adopt such other restraints Of the character
indicated as they shall find necessary, conve.
nient and eifectusl for the public safety.
II Ia further directed that whenever any order
shall be made affecting the personal liberty Of
an allen, reports Of the same and of the causes
thereof shall be made to the War Department
for the consideration Of the Department Of
State. ,..
