PIeOCH.A NATION.
EXECUTIVE OFFICER
JACKSON, MISS, April 6, 1871

WHEREAS, much painful anxiety and appre-
henson exists in the public mind, resulting
from the passage of the "Military BilI'' by Con-
gress, and the General Order Of General Ord
In assuming command of the military Dis
trict Of Mississippi and Arkansas" and
whereas, in some instances, the regular admin
istration of the State Government has been UNI
settled to such an extent as to cause some Of
the officers of the State to suspend thefunctions
of their Offices; and many citizens are hes
itating, while others refuse, to pay their taxes
upon the assumed ground that the Tax Col
lectors are not ''competent officers" and there
fore are not authorized to receipt for the same;
and as other evils and Irregularities may arise
from the uncertainty that exists as to the ,du-
ties and responsibilities Of officers and citizens
of the State In their present siiuation-thero-
fore, deem it proper to make known that the
Act of Congsess commonly called the "Military
Bill" recognizes the civil existing Government
of the State. 1t is true it Is declared to be pro-
yisional only and in all respects subject to
the paramount authority0f the United States
at any time to abolish, modify, control or
supercede the same. But until IL change Is
made in accordance with the provisions Of
this law, l hereby give NOTICE to the Civil
Officers Of the State that their relations and
responsibilities to the Constitution Of the Uni
ted States, to the State of Mississippi and to
the people, remain unchanged, and they will
be held to strict accountability for the per-
formance Of their duties, in carrying out the
provisions of the laws, for the maintenance of
the civil Government, and for the full and am
pie protection of all classes Of inhabitants of
the State, both white and black, In all Of their
rights of person, property, liberty and religion.
And l further advise and admonish all good
citizens and inhabitants to sustain the civil
officers in maintaining the peace, order and Sc
curity of society--to deal justly and indul-
gently with each other, and in their political
helplessness, to devote themselves to pursuits
of industry, and to the production of those
necessaries Of life for which they are now so
dependent upon the markets of other States,
and to offer no Resistance to any steps that may
be taken in the reconstruction of the State by
the Military authority of the United States,
except such as may be authorized by the
Courts, under the Constitution Of the United
States. Military power may become intolera-
BILE only when it is placed IN the hands of the
vicious and the unjust, which, happily, is not
the case in Mississippi. The military Bill'
makes no provision for the support Of the civil
Government. Taxes must be collected by the
civil officers to support it and to pay its debts.
and Whenever any changes are made either in
the civil officers or the duties required of them,
timely notice will doubtless be given and du-
ly promulgated. b. G. HUMPHREYS.

c. A. BRoUGHER, Secretary of State.

How long, Mr. Editor, will it take 10, re-
construct, after the General beginshis work,
and when win he commenced Does the
Military Bill require that the process Of reg
istering shall not be completed until the first
of September / think it very desirable
that we should DO represented in the next
Congress, and 1t seems to me TO be very
easy TO comply with all the requirements OF
thelaw by that time. Misunderstanding OF
the law is, that the registration may com
mence at once, and al the expiration of a
given time the election may be held, and at
the end Of o certain other specified time the
Convention is to assemble, and so on, until
all the degrees Of probation are passed
through. .Nng iI7f-

nigh Court Dccisions.

Having disposed of the United States
Laws, We commence this morning the publ.
cation Of such decisions Of the High Court as
have not yet been presented to our readers
We regret the delay in publishing the de-
cisions Of the last two terms Of the Court
but it has been unavoidable. The one pub.
lished this MORNINGS Of special Importance
maintaining, as it does, the constitutional
ity of the Exemption Law We propose to
give several decisions each week until all are
disposed of, and we request that all vho val
ne these important documents carefully file
them, as we cannot undertake to supply
back numbers of the Clarion containing
them.
In this connection, 1t may not be improper
to notice an anonymous and malicious com
ment in the Canton Citizen upon our delay
in publishing the late decisions "Justicia"
is informed that when he has anything
Expressly for the Clarion" the columns OF
another journal are not altogether the most
appropriate channel to illuminate his griev-
ances. We should be sorry to have to be-
lieye that tho publication of these decisions
was the only inducement why "a large num-
Der of members of the bar and intelligent
citizens of the State" became subscribers to
the Clarion but we can assure this chronic
PATHFINDER that all the subscriptions of our
legal patrons combined will not remunerate
us for the money we pay for the copies of the
decisions of a single term of the Court. We
think we understand our business. When
we are convinced that we do not, We may
look around for more reliable counsel than
"Justicia." ..,.... ..-,,. ..,e.s.........

The Memphis Bulletin, points out
the folly of Southern mans argu-
ment that the Southern States are
States in the Union, according, to the
war, and to be dealt with after the re-
quirements of the Constitution These
premises belong to the Northern
States. They claimed to be fighting
only for the restoration of the Union,
and disclaimed all design of conquest
or of interfering with the institutions
of the seeded States. If the North
choose to break that pledge we cannot
help it. But we have no right to argue
from thatpoint of view. We claimed to
have renounced the old Constitution
and have to set up for ourselves.
Therefore, we agree with Admiral
Semmes that sour true honor consists"
in maintaining that we are conquer
ed people, having no claim except we
shall be dealt with according to the
z sasall- 1850, l>nn,,SfI, -
manized and adapted to the civiliza-
ton of the nineteenth century"
