Leo in A'iririr.ia, has deci) followed by the snrreudcr of the army under the command of Gen. Johfiton in ftorth Carolina. To these nrtnics, South Carolina .has contributed, with very inconsiderable. exceptions, her en tin*, male population. Tim brave men in these armies who have survived the bloody war ol' the past four years, are new returning iicmc, as prisoners of war, on their parole ; an$ unable again to take up their*rnis until thCconditieus have been performed upon which their captivity has been terminate.!.). $ 'i'he Government of the Confederate States, in the creation of which South Carolina united with her States, has suspended its civil and military authority, and the high duty of providing measures for the welfare of its citizens, by a stern necessity, has been developed upon the Government of tin? State. In this unexpected termination of the active powers of Government, in peace and in war, which Sooth Carolina granted to the common ? ? . v r* r i . n. . Government, of tuc uonrcueratcciaios, circumstances have rcmlcrod the. condition of this State one i:f peculiar embarrassment. Deeply suffering froin the coiwrmcnccs of the war, io many rcspecU, in if.me is thatsnltering more peculiarly trying thin in tii" misery which now aiSects a considerable portion of its population; which ihreateiN a larger portion* and may involve the whole of it in the suiferiyg wliioli want, approaching starvation, lias .produa-d ami will produce. The large supplies gPvii-u'.uii to fiio siij-p.it of the armies of the 1 V.if.sler.-iiioii had be..*i: given at a time when abundance enabled t.hc population to bear its \.i:h<iia<v}i! without aggravated suffering. Dut the gryat ilcatructiou of means of subsistence - - i.i j f.r* i. _ t* at ilio present time, ami uic aimcuitics 01 securing it in tho futaro by the next crop, had, even beiore the reverses which befell the armies of tho Confederation, satisfied all that it would he impossible to pari with the supplies which had been gathered for the armies, without destroying the support of the population, in many portions ol the S'ate. And attempts were made to iuform'tjjc authorities of tho Confederate Government, that not only the apprehension but the certainty of evil eonscipienccs would prevent the removal of all such supplies. With the dissolution of the armies of the Confederation, the necessity for these supplies has ceased; with the removal of that necessity arises the stronger obligation upon the authorities of the State, to preserve these supplies for the mitigation of the suffering of the people of the State. To that end, therefore, it is now declared thai all subsistence stores and property of tho Confederate States within the limits of the State, should be turned over to and accounted for by the agents of the State appointed for that purpose* The subsistence ami other stores to be used for the relief of the people of the State, and the other property of whatever kind to be. held for the common 1*?, ? *] ?/? nn/1 4 oitnk UUIICilU UA tliu MUfctU, OUUJtUO IV ouvu CtlOOiJbutton as may be hereafter determined upon by the proper authorities of the State. It will be recognized as a duty in the highest degree obligatory upon the agents of the State who will receive tbege supplies, to provide out of them freely to the soldiers of this and other Sta'.-:.r pas?i: g through our limits who may need aid. Subject to this claim, all such, supplies will bo hold for the purpose of furnishing subsistence and supports to the thousands who in different parts of the State arc '-*rn| s* i?j . m mm i mrnamlyrM =*ClA?, - ' .now destitute and in want of food, and wljosd "-5 suffering can only be alk-viaWd by this dispo^ s'tion of these supplies. . . fey the Governor: A.

REPRESENTATIONS WHICH * * have hern made to me of the general . practice of distillation of liquors by persons who have not obtained that authority which the laws of tha State require* aro so general that there can he no doubt of. the great jiiis^ chief which is now affecting the people of the State. That the laws of the State should be openly violated, is of itself, a public wrongs than which none can be greater and which. Jjfc? must be redressed. That the purpose for whidW^W tl^se laws are violated should be productive of the certain misery and an happiness of the people of the State, is an occasion which calls for . the united action of ail good citizens in maintaining the integrity of the laws, arid protect-1 ing the lives and fortunes of their fellowmen. I 2. For the information of all persons* it is now proclaimed that the laws which are of force in the State of South Carolna, and which alone by compliance with their precisions render lawful the distillation of liqnorsj arc to be strictly enforced. To these laws attention is required ; obedience is due and must be 'given. /. It is the duty of all persons having roa-> , sonable.ground for the suspicion that these laws are violate^ to give information thereof, that suoh violation may be prevented andpunished. t. (Judor whatever oilier protest, justified- > * tioti or excuse may be sought for these practh cos, it is sufficient now1 to proclaim that the. laws of the State afford the only sanction which can he had, and that these laws alone indicate the mode in which that sanction can be obtained. o. Sheriffs of the State, and a)l magistrates in the different districts of the State, will, with all due diligcnc, proceed to combine tboir efforts for the detection of those who are guilty of a violation of these laws, and, in all other* respects, to secure that observance of the enactments of the State, which is alone consistent with the respect due to its authority. G. All persons engaged in the distillation of . liquors referred to iii the laws of the State^ will be required to present the evidence of the authority given to them to continue in such business. And in all cases tfheri such author-*, ' ity is not exhibited, information thereof will be -i t-> Ao> communicated to tne l'roseciuing umcers 01 the State, who way be appointed for the enforcement of the criminal laws of the land iti tliat portion of the State where such violation way be fotincL 7. The Auditor-General of the State, James* Tapper, Esq., <\jll obtain froiif the proper officers the names of such persons as nave bee? only authorized to engage in the distillation ot liquors, and publish the same for the general 5i>lAnmn4irtrt iUJVSl U1UV1VIM By the GovernorA.
