of the people, and is so thoroughly educated
in the love of civil liberty-which is the best
guaranty for the permanence of our republican
lnstitutions-that it would itself be the first to
oppose any attempt to continue the exercise
oil military authority after the establishment
oil peace by the overthrow of the rebellion.
No man on earth can lead our citizen soldiery
to the establishment of military depotism,
and no man living would have the folly to at
tempt It, To do so would be to seal his own
doom. On this point there can be no ground
for apprehension on the part of the people.
1t is said that we can have peace If we lay
down our arms All sensible men know this
TO be untrue. Were it so, ought we to be so
cowardly as to lay them down until the au-
thority of the government is acknowledged
l call upon the fathers, mothers. bro
thers, sisters sons, daughters, relatives friends
and neighbors of the soldiers in the field to aid
me In stopping this license and Incorporate
discussion which is discouraging our armies,
weakening the hands of the government. and
thereby strengthening the enemy. II we use
our honest efforts God will bless us with a
glorious peace and united country. Men OF
every shade of opinion have the same vital in
terest in the suppression of this rebellion; for,
should we fail in the task, the dread horrors of
ruined and distracted nation will fall alike on
all, whether patriots or traitors.
These are substantially my reasons for issu-
ing General Order No. 3S, my reasons for the
determination to enforce it, and also nv reas-
ons for the arrest of the Hon. c. l.. Vallandig-
ham for supposed violation of that order, for
which he has been tried. The result of that
trial is now in my hands.
In enforcing this order can be unanimously
sustained by the people, or can be opposed
by factious bad men. In the former event,
quieteness will prevail in the latter event, the
responsibility and retribution will attach to the
men who resist authority and the neigh
borhoods that allow it.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
