1st. Tbc planters, after taking the oatli of

their slaves),and inform them that they are
free, and that henceforth they must depend
upon their own exertions for their support.
' 2d. Equitable contracts iu writing will be
made by the owners of the land with the
frecdmen for the cultivation of the land during
the prcseut year.
Parment will be made in kind, and the al
lowaucc of one half the crop is recommended
as fair compon.-ation for the laW. the landlord
funnelling subsistence until the crop is made.
These contracts will be submitted to the nearest
military or naral commander for approval
and endorsement.
When the above requirements'are .complied
with, protection wili be granted as far us military
necessity will allow; but where cio contract
is made, the crop raise:! wi'J be considered fouic-i
