Who arc Affected by the Amendment.


1t is believed our people do not
generally understand who are affected
by the Constitutional Amendment and
excluded from Office, and from the
ballot box by the late bill.
The following persons are excludes:
I lst. All persons who, before the
war, were members Of Congress or Of
licers of the United Statos and took an
oath to support tho Constitution of
the United States and afterwards en-
gagged in the rebellion.
I'd. All persons who, prior to tho
war, were executive, legislative or ju-
dcial officers Of the State and took
the like nth, and engaged in the re-
bel IN.
This embraces Governors, members
of the Legislature, and judicial Off
GERS from u Judge of the Supreme
Court down to 4 Justice of the Peace,
who, at any time, held the office and
took the oath and afterwards engaged
in the rebellion. \
WHO, then, are not excluded ? Ist.
No ono is excluded because he held an
Office under the Confederate States
from President down, if he does not
fall within one Of the excluded classes
above specified. The simple fact that
he was II Confederate Senator or a
Confederate. General, or that he tool,
an oath to support the Constitution OF
the Confederate States, docs not cx-
cludc him.
2. No state or county officer is cx-
cludcd on account of his having held
the ofliccand taken the oath and Gu
gagged i'll the rebellion, if he were not
an executive, legislative or judicial
officer, therefore, neither a lawyer,
sheriff, clerk, tax collector, receiver,
county treasurer, coroner, surveyor,
constable, or road commissioner is ex-
cludcd.
Sd. AS no man under twcnty-onc
years of ago when the war began, held
amy such office as disqualified, and
none Of them took the oath to sup
port the Constitution of the Unitc,l
'States during the war, and as the war
commenced nearly six years ago, no
man in Georgia under twcnty-scvcn
years of ago can he excluded.
1th. Militia officers arc not cxclud-
cd.
9th. The whole mass Of our people
who fall within mono Of the excluded
classes above mentioned, arc free
from the disqualification, and may
vote and hold any Office in tho State
without regard to the part they took
in the war. ATLANTA.
The above facts have been prcpar-
cd for tho Fra by one of the first lc-
gal minds in the Sontl, and We accept
its statements as critically correct
ira.
