AND
REGISTER OF IMPORTANT EVENTS
OF THE YEAR 1864.


IN Presenting to the public another volume
Il of the Annual Cyclop1dia, containing the
record of the most turbulent year which the coun-
try has witnessed, no Efforts have been spared TO
secure its completeness and accuracy, and to pre-
serve it free from every mark of partisanshIp.
The principles adopted IN the previous years
have taken effect, and many new and most I'M
portant questions arose under them, and were
discussed during 1868 such as csnfiscatIon, eman
cipation, indemnity official and pecunIary, the re-
lations Of the nsurrectIonary states to the Union
personal liberty, martial law prize, the liability
Great Britain for damages done by the Alabama
Sc, &C.
These discussions embraced in its contents,
together with the important civil and po-
litIcal measures of the Federal and State govern
ments; an accurate and minute history of the
struggles of the great armies and their battles. H.
lustrated with maps and plans of actions taken
from official copies the debates OF the Federal
and Confederate Congresses; financial measures
of the government, commerce, &c, &c; the pro-
ceedIngs in the Confederate States TO maintain the
war and establish their government; also, all the
| exciting movements in foreign countries the de-
yelopments Ia the physical sciences the progress
| Of literature; mechanical inventions and improve.
ments the stupendous enterprises of the govern.
| ment connected with the war, such hospitals
| for the army, the manufacture OF ordnance, and
! the trade regulations InsurrectIonary districts
The present statistics of the religious denOmIna
| tions, the Biographical sketches of the smInen
| ersons deceased in 1864, &C.
The contents arranged in alphabetica
| order, and accompanied by most complete In
deI. The volume is in the style of the Ne,
| American Cycopedea, and will match the volt
for 1861, 1862 & 1868 of this annual. The work
published exclusively by subscription, and is ele
CANT and substantial.

''Whereas satisfactory evidence has been
furnished at these headquarters that, at the
election held in the city of Richmond, on the
25th instant, for municipal officers, voters were
excluded on the ground of having lost their
residence by reason Of their absence as soldiers
inn. the United States army during the rebellion,
when no such ground was taken as against
soldiers absent in the rebel army and whereas,
With but few EXCEPTIONS all OF the officers elected
at said municipal election have been prominent
and conspicuous in inaugurating and sustaining
the rebellion; and whereas, the issue was
distinctly made and openly avowed at said
election, as between those men who had aided
and abetted in the war against the United
States authority, and those who had, with their
lives, defended the flag Of our country.
Therefore, justice to the thousands who
have fallen on the battle field or by disease, In
their efforts to put down this rebellion, and to
those who are now returning to their homes III
this district, after four years of suffering, toll,
privstions, and dangers incurred in fighting
SO lately contributing all their efforts to sustain
treason, and overthrow this Government, should
not be installed into Office and entrusted with
power; .a
Hence it is hereby declared chat the United
States military authorities of this city will
regard the said municipal elections held in this
city on the 25th instant as null and void,
excepting only the election of the Clerk of the
Hastings Court; and each and every person
elected to ohice-excepting said Clerk of the
Hastings Courts prohibited from exercising
the duties appertaining thereto.
