l. sioner Of Slave Statistics" by the Cover

whom such persons were heidi
Hereby gives notice, that he will attend at
his Office, in PORT TOBACCO, from day to
day, for the purpose of discharging his duties as
said Commissioner.
The Act of Assembly designs to place, in the
safe keeping of the State correct evidence Of the
| number of slaves held by her citizens, at the
time, when, under the influence of the pledge
OF compensation from the United States, such
slaves were emancipated. 1t is obvious that those
only will be compensated who furnish the State
with such evidence. The object of the Law and
the necessity of its passa ge may be better under
says: =
'eThat the State of Maryland has a good,
valid and just claim upon the Government of the
United States for reasonable and adequate COM
pensation for the said property, and that it ought
not to be doubted that the Federal Government,
when the passions excited by the late unhappy
civil War shall have subsidized, will recognize the
justice of the said claims and faithfully perfor
her manifest duty in regard to it,
The law requires the following:
The names of the former owners, at the time
of the adoption Of the Constitution in the year
1864.
s'The names, number, age, sex and physical
condition of such slaves; whether they were
slaves for life or for a term of years, and how
many years; whether they have been enlisted or
drafted into the United States, so far as is known
to said owners others; and into what regi-
ments they we're placed, and what compensa-
ton, if any, has been received from the State or
h1c I1cho
for such slaves so enlisted or drafted into the
military service of the United States"
The testimony required is the sworn state
ment of the fol mcr owner or legal representa-
tive, confirmed by the ''oath of at least two dis
| interested Witnesses" The record thus made
up is declared to be legal evidence upon all ques
| tons concerning the ownership of slaves in this
State at the time of the adoption of the Constit-
ution by which said slaves were emancipated.' -
