as follows was then read
Whereas, The Congress OF the United States have
passed an act entitled ant TO provide for the
efficient government Of the rebel States and bill sup
Elemental thereto, which bill defines the qualifications
and provides for the registration OF voters and
the calling OF state convention to remodel the constu-
and take such other steps therein required
the state to her position as member OF tho
federal Union: and whereas any proceedings TO obtain
redress by an appeal to the Supreme Court of United
States necessarily he attended with great delay,
and II successfully prosecuted would probably DO
unavang from the fact that state government will
be organized before sucn decision could be had there
fore
ana do earnestly recommend 70 all tho citizens OF the
state entitled under the provisions OF the above
named bills 10 go forward and register their names and
the polls and cast their votes at all elections

part the organization OF tho State The General As
scnbiy deems that all czons qualified should adopt
their fellow citizens who DISTINGUISHED by these bills
retan their own personal and political freedom;
and the discharge of this duty is duo TO large
her Of newly enfranchised blacks, who, unaccusomcd
the rights Of electors and who, IN great measure
unqualified to participate In the affairs OF governments
should he properly counsced in the exercise Of this new
privilege in order TO the State from anarchy and
