Congress, so far as Congress has the
right to determine them, after the ad'
mission OF the Southern representatives
He also had doubts of the constitution
ality of some acts passed by Congress IN
the absence of the representatives OF the
late rebel States, such, for instance, as
an act to levy taxes upon all the people
of the United States, but was willing to
abide by the decision OF the judiciary,
whatever that decision might be. lie
believes that the Southern States are
entitled to immediate representation in
Congress, but that no one should be adj
mitted by either House who is not really
loyal to the Constitution of the United
States and to the government establish

The following reason was given by
Mr.. 8. for identifying himself with the
rebellion so far as to accept the office OF
vice president of the Contederacy:

sovereignty of the several States OF the
Union, under the compact of Union
or the Constitution Of 1887; | OPP
posed secession, therefore, as ques-
ton of policy. and not one OF right on
the mart of Georgia when the State Sc
ceded against my judgment and vote, l
thought my ultimate allegiance was due
to her, and l preferred to cast my Tor
tunes and destiny with her ana mel
people, rather than to take any oIhel
course, even though it may lead to my
self sacrifice and her ruin in accepting
| nosition under the new order of thing
nv sole object was to do all the goot

the principles of liberty as established
under the Constitution OF the UNITED

This testimony is as satistactor
as could reasonably be expected, if W

what would be the fate Of any const

not settled by some meaps before SUI

large number of people excluded fro

Breret Major Gsa. J. W. BraHHan Of ~4u-
g,Sua, Co..
The Assistant Commissioner OF the
Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, &c, for
the State OF Georgia having inquired
whether the Presidents proclamation
removes martial law, and also stated
that the Department Commander does
not feel authorized to arrest parties who
have committed outrages on freed peo-
pie or Union refugees, the Secretary Of
War, with the approval Of the Presi-
dent, desires me to inform you that the
Presidents proclamation does not re-
move martial law, or operate in any
way on the Freedman's Bureau in the
exercise of its legitimate jurisdiction.
1t is not expedient, however, to resort
to military tribunals in any case where
Justice can be obtained through the me
dunn of civil authority.
