THE Local chap Of the Indianapo-
lis Herald we have always regarded
as "a fellow Of infinite jest" (May
many years elapse before his skull,
ike poor YoRIcK 5, Is used to " poiut
morality 1t seems, however, that
the " Senior Of the Herald is much
more faeetious than the Local. The
latter gets off things on purpose
to make people laugh The former
is most funny when he labors to APP
pear serious. One of the latest jokes
perpetrated by theSenior is an attempt
to prove the Republican party re-
sponsible for the reasonable proclivi-
ties of ANDY JOHNSON and most of
his Cabinet The Uuion party elected
Mr.. JOHNSON. therefore, argues this
Editorial Dogberry. the Union party
is res ponsible for all his bad conduct.
Had this distinguished delineator Of
Democracy been a resident of Jeru-
salem in the time of CHRIsT, be would
have reproached that Divine Sufferer,
while on the cross, with being the
architect Of his own misfortunes. Did
you not choose JUDAS IscARIOT, he
would have said to Him. therefore
you are directly responsible for all
his treachery and your own death.
Nor would this HerIld editor, after
such a manifestation OF meannesss
went and hung himself as JUDAS aid.
On the contrary be would have tipped
a knowing wink to his admiring
friends and went to some adjoining
saloon for drink.

The effect Of the recent elections
has been marked and decided in the
Southern States. The people there
imagine they already see the downfall
of the Republican party, and the
restoration Of the political organiza-
ton through which, for a long series
of years, they were able to control the
Government and use it to the adj
vancement of their own personal in
terests. Already they see in the i'm
mediate future the repeal of al the
laws passed by Congress for the pro-
lection Of the freedmen. the abroga-
ton of the State laws permitting them
to vote, and the actual setting aside
Of the Emancipation Proclamation
itself, through a subsidized and sub
verted Supreme Court. Thus fondIy

CHARLESTON, s. c., May co. 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 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
endeavoripg to assess and collect the whiskey tax
are frequently treated with disrespect and some
times menaced with violence; and that when
offenders prosecuted in the civil courts and
violations of the internal revenue laws indisputa
bly, proved uries 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, 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 in the
Commanding General it is ordered that,
l. The distilation 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 misdemeanor.
The possession of still or other apparatus for
this purpose will be considered presumptlve evil
dence 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 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 whskey 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 other property, or
the imposition of a fine or 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, Sherifs, Constables, Police and others in
authority are required, and all citizens are solic-
tied, to be vigant in detecting and prompt in
giving information of the violation of these Or
ders Commanding officers will be held respon-
sible for their enforcement.

RALEIGH, N. c., July 1, 1857.
| CIRCULAR No. 13.
! In view of the new relations being inau
gurated for the DEVELOPMENT and elevation of the
| colored people, and the necessity of good advice
| and aid which people long accustomed to the
advantages and privileges Of free nation should
| extend to those who are entering new sphere
oflife, it is considered the duty OF those whose
official positions bring them in contact with this
class to render such assistance in the work now
going on, and endeavor, by all possible means, TO
encourage, counsel and help in the preliminaries
incident to the enfranchisement of the colored
people.
The Officers and Agents of the Bureau in this
State are reminded that it is made an important
part of their work to inform all freed people of
their rights and privileges conferred upon them
by the Government prominent among which is
their right of suffrage.
1t is ofgreat importance that all should be duly
Informed of this right, and the Importance of its
exercise They should be taught the necessity
of prompt and thorough registration, and be
assured that they will be protected and every
facility offered to carry out the intention of the
laws.
To this end Officers and Agents will use their
best efforts to thwart designing persons in any
attempt to impede registration to prevent both
intimidations or promises in any and every guse
Misrepresentation have been used in order to
deceive these people, and all such cases coming
under their notice as in any way tending to in
terfere or impede the operations of the law, will
be at once reported to these Head Quarters.
Officers and others charged with these duties
will exercise great caution in carrying out these
Instructions, taking that their advice be
tempered with Judgment and impartiality. Every
encouragement will be given to foster industry,
particularly at this season, when so much de-
pends upon proper care of crops.
These directions, to those whose duty it is to
see that all rights guaranteed by the Government
are properly enforced, must commend themselves
to each and every person interested in the gen.
eral welfare and progress of all classes and it is
hoped that they may meet with an approval
which will greatly facilitate the future welfare Of
the citizens of the State.
