Justice to the freedmen who havo heon in almost
every instance the transgressors, the District
Court was created This was designed principally
to try petty misdemcanors and crimes that were
not felonies and the extraordinary largo number
that have been tried and sentenced, proved con-
clusively the necessity for the Court. The relief
thus afforded to the Court Of General Sessions has
been considerable and has enabled that Court 70
give its undivided attention to The trial of the CAPT
tai offences, Of which it had a large docket.
In either Court the utmost leniency was obserr-
Cd and the prisoners supplied with able counsel,
who undertook the defence cheertully, and labor
ed conscientiousy and persis:ently for their
clients. In one instance an appeal was made, the
counsel for the defence considering that all tho
technicalities of the law had not been observed,
and the trial consequently was futile. Criminal
cases occur so frequently that it has long been
the custom to grant them tho first hearing, and,
until they are disposed of, the civil docket re-
mains in abeyance. This system was religiously
adhered to during the late sessions, and was pro-
ductive cf great good to the accused, in many in
stances shortening their term of imprisonment.
The United States Court has also been engaged
in the hearing Of many important cases, principal
ly violations Of the revenue laws cmbezzlement,
&C., all having received an impartial trial, and
sentences based upon firm conviction of their
guilt or innocence. The adjournment OF these
Courts would havo imposed holiday upon the le-
gal fraternity if it not for the opportune ar
rival of Chancellor LRsEsNE, who offered new
field for their prowess by opening the Equity
Court As this Court decides questions involving
large amounts ths attendance is voluntary, and

In reply to letters received at these headouar-
tiers, asking information to the operation in
particular cases OF General Orders No 10, current
series from these headquarters, am directed by
the commanding general to state that the proyis-
ions of the order will be Interpreted and enforced

authority of the United States for the regulation
of certain civil affairs therein specified within so
much OF the territory occupied by the military
forces of the United States lately the theatre Of
war, as is embraced within the second military
district created by act of Congress.
A!though some OF the former political relations
OF the INHABITANTS are in allegiance, their private
relations, their persons and property, and their
remedies for wrongs remain as heretofore, within
the cognizance of the local tribunals and subject
to the laws of the provisional government hitherto
IN Iorce, except SO far as such laws are in conflict
with the Constitution and laws of the United
States, or with the regulations prescribed by the
commanding general
Amongst the consequences necessarily incident
10 the military authority established by Congress,
and indispensable to the objects tor W 'cR the
authority is established, is the appointment and
control of the civil agents by whom and measures
9y which the government al interim is to be con-
uucted, In the exercise of this authority, such
regulations and appointments will be announ-
'ed from time to time as may beeomt, neces-
'ary; and SO far as these regulations conc ern the
ordinary civil relations of the inhabtants :, they
will be administered by the courts and by the
edure. ~
