GENERAL ORDERS,
1t appears from sundry petitions and official
representations that the present scanty supply of
food in the Carolinas is seriously diminished by
the large quantity of grain consumed in numerous
distilleries, put up and worked in defiance of the
revenue laws of the United States it is represen-
ted that few or none of the requirements of law
are observed in any of these establishments; that
the officers of the internal revenue service while
endeavoriDg to assess and collect the whskey tax
are frequently treated with disrespect and some
times menaced with violence; and that when
Offenders are prosecuted in the civil courts and
violations of the internal revenue laws indisputa-
bly, proved, juries fail to convict the parties II Is
further shown that this unlawful traffic makes
food dearer in places where large numbers are de-
pending upon public and private bounty; that
the Government is, besides, defrauded OF a large
amount of revenue; that the authority of its civil
officers is brought into contempt; and further
more, that the mischief complained of tends to
increase poverty, disorder and crime; Therefore,
in the exercise of the authority vested il line
Commanding General it is ordered that,
I. The distillation or manufacture of whiskey
or other spirits from grain is prohibited in this
Military District Any person so engaged or en-
ployed will be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor.
The possession of a still or other apparatus for
this purpose will be considered presumptlve evil
dence OF violation of the revenue laws, and the
party or parties using the same, or on whose
premises, or in whose possession the same may be
found, will be arrested and brought to trial before
a military tribunal composed of the Commanding
officer of the Post and two officers of the army
next in rank on duty within the territorial limits
of the Post. If the exigencies of the service do
not permit the detail of other officers, that fact
will be duly certified and the Post Commander
will hear and determine the case.
II. The penalties, punishments and forfeitures
prescribed by the several acts of Congress for dis
tilling or manufacturing whiskey or other spirits
in violation of the revenue laws, will be imposed
and executed by the military tribunals hereby au-
thorized.
III. No sentence extending to Imprisonment,
forfeiture of Stills liquor or other property or
the imposition of fine other penalty will be
carried into effect until reported to these Head
quarters and approved by the Commanding Gen,
eral.
~. All troops of the United States, Magis-
trates, Sherffs, Constables, Police and Others in
authority are required, and all citizens are solic-
tied, to be vigilant in detecting and prompt in
giving information of the violation of these or
ders. Commanding officers will be held respon-
sible for their enforcement.

Published by the Union Republican Congression

The following is a dialogue between
a newly enfranchised freedman and a
sound Radical Republican. The new
made voter is seeking light upon the
subject of his political duties, and his
Radical friend gives him plain facts,
and demonstrates clearly with which
party he and all like him should act
It would be well for colored voters gen.
orally to seek out some tried Radical
friend and question him upon all sub
iects about which they have any doubt.
The dialogue is submitted with the
hope that the facts set forth therein
will remove doubts from the minds of
many who have been unable to receive
proper information upon the position
in which they should stand at this
time:
