Headquarters Second Military District,
CHARLESTON, S. c., April 81, 1867.
Circular.
May 80, 1866.


In reply to letters received at these headquar-
tiers, asking information Us to the operation in
particular cases of General Orders No. 10, current
series from these headquarters, am directed oy
the commanding general to state that the provis-
ions of the order will be interpreted and enforced
by the courts. The order is to be deemed and
taken as an ordinance having the sanction and
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:
Although some of the former political relations
of the inha bitants 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 force, except so far such laws are i'll conflict
with the Constitution and laws of the Unitett
States, with the regulations prescribed by the
commanding general.
Amongst the consequences necessarily incident
to the military authority established by Congress,
and indispensable to the objects tor which the
authority is established, is the appointment and
control of the civil agents by whom and measures
by which the government dd interim is to be con-
Quoted. In the exercise of this authority, such
regulations and appointments will be announ-
ced from time to time as may become neces:
sary; and SO far as these regulations concern the
ordinary civil relations of the inhabitants, they
will be administered by the courts and by the
proper civil officers in the usual course of pro-
cedure.
Whilst it will not be convenient to respond te
particular inquiries made by citizens to The
Interpretation and application of these regula
tons, such interrOgatories will be answered wher
addressed to the general commanding by the ap
pellate courts of law and equity.

OF doing any wrong to the government as you or
Mr. Stevens are?
Fellow-citizens, the Republican party is not in
favor oft. II it is l am deceved-and shouldit be
discovered that that is one of the designs of the
Republican party, you will see the Union whites
aud the most Intelligent blacks of the South
leaving the Republican party like rats from
burning barn. / am satisfied that the Republi.
can party contemplates no such thing, as the
leading Republicans of the North and South OPP
pose it. Every canvasser who has been sent
South, to promote the interest of the Republican
party declares positively that they are opposed to
it. If the South will grant suffrage to the COL
ored man, and we make a State Constitution
truly Republican, and send such men to repre-
sent US in the halls of Congress that can take the
required oath of Office, all will be well. But iel-
loweitizens if you follow in the footsteps of the
last elections, and elect men who are untrue to
the government, and those who will "dare and
dare again." the Congress of the United States,
there is no telling what will be the conquences
Then, fellow citizens, stick to the Republican
party and elect none but Republicans to office,
and yoR will see that they not the unchrs-
tian. people which demagogues has represented
them to be.

CHARLESTON, S. c., May 20, 1867.

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 III numerous
diStilierieS, put up and worked i'll defiance OF the
revenue laws of the United States it Is represent
ted that few none OF the requirements of law
are observed in any of these establishments; that
the officers of the internal revenue service while
endeavOrDg to assess and collect the whiskey tax
are frequently treated with disrespcct and some
times menaced with violence; and that when
offenders prosecuted in the civil courts anG
violations of the internal revenue laws indisruta
bly, proved juries fail to convict the parties it 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, defraudrd of 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 in the
Commanding General it is ordered that,
l. The distilation or manufacture of whlSkcy
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 presunptIve evil
dcnce OF a 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 aud brought to trial before
mlllary lrlOullal composed Vi the SOLlHlaLulnS
officer OF the Post and two officers of the army
next in rank on duty within the territorial limits
of the Post. If the eXigences 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, punshments and forfeitures
prescribed by the several acts of Congress for dis
filling 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 Il fine or other penalty will be
carried into effect until reported to these Head
quarters and approved by the Commanding Cen
eral.
". All troops of the United States, Magis-
traes, Sheriifs, Constables, Police aud others in
authority 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.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
PROOFS OF THE SUPERIOR QUALITY
OF THE
AMERICAN WATCH
MADE AT
WALTHAM, MASS.

The American Watch Company, of Waltham.
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches
are cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more
durable, better adapted for general use, and
more easily kept in order and repaired than any
other watches in the market. They are simpler
in structure and therefore stronger and less
likely to be injured than the majority of foreign
watches, which are composed of from 125 to 300
pieces. willie in an old English watch there are
more than 700 parts. How they run under the
hardest trial watches can have, is shown by the
following letter:
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY.
OFFICE OF THE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT,
ALTOONA, Pa, Is Dec, 1866
Gentlemen The watches manufactured by you
have been in use on this rai.road for several
years by our enginemen, to W iom we furnish
watches us part of our equipment. There are
now some three hundred of them carried on our
line, and we consider them good and reliable
time keeper Indeed have great satisfaction
in saving your watches give us less trouble and
have worn and do wear much longer without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road. As you are aware, we formerly
trusted in tho-e of English manufacture, of ac-
knowledged good reputation; but as class they
never kept time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service, rs yours.
In these statements l am sustained by nv pre-
decessor, Mr. Lewis, whose experience extended
over a series of years,
Respectfully,
EDWARD H. WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent
American Watch Co., Walthana.
We make now five different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows:
Appleton, Tracy & Co., Waltham, Mass.
Waltham Watch Co., Waltham, Mass.
p. s. Bartlett, Waltham, Mass.
VIM. Ellery, Boston, Mass.
Home Watch Co., Boston, Mass.
All of these, with the exception of the Home
Watch Company, are warranted by the American
Watch Company to be the best material, on the
most approval principle, and to possess every
requisite for a reliable time keeper. Every deal
er selling these Watches is provided with the
Company's printed card of guarantee, which
should accompany each watch sold, so that buy
ers may feel sure that they are purchasing the
genuine article. There are numerous counter
feits and limitations of our Watches sold through
out the country, and we would caution purcha-
sers to be on their guard against imposition.
ANY grades of Waltham Watches may be pur-
chased of Watch Dealers throughout the country.
