Important Order from General Sickles.
To-day ve publisi tho imiost iipor
tant order which has18 yet emalated
from the I leadquarters of this M ilita
ry District.
The order is plaIin enough for all to
understand.
h'Ile Charleston Mlercury in alluding
to the order says :
"The sununary of the whole is,that
"there shall be tin imprisotnment
"whatever upon civil process except
"il cases of fraud ; tht debts arising
"or accruing diuring the war cainnot I e
"Ciforeed by execution upon proper
"ty and that pending proceedings in
"such Cases are stayed ;-thazt tl sale
"of property for debts contracted prior
",to Decembt 19, 1860, is suspended
"for t welve montis ; that tle sale of
"property by foreclosure of mortgagt
"is similarly suspentded uiless the in
"terest accruing since May 15, 1865,
"shttall not have been paid before the
'"day of sale ; u1n1d that there is a
hoestead1 exemption inl the Case of
"famiies, and of garmients and tools in
"the case of famailics, and of garimenits
"1anid t ools of ild iv iduals.
"There his undoulbtedly been ini
"'finte listress inl this State caused by
"thle act ioin of erCeditors wio were ,tix
"'ious to secire a first lien upti on tle
"property of their debtors ; and it. is
geiarnestly hoped that Geteral Or(ider
'"No. 10 may prove to be beteficial in
"its every result,
The Military Stay Law.
W'e have published tie order of
General Sickles to af'ord relief to the
d'brors of his Military .District , anld
there i.s; no doubt great relief will b
afforded. But there is onte relief,
Which all the orders from all tihe olli
cors, both civil and military, in the
land, catn never give-and4 that is re
In1er CLniti tihe binld ing force of an1 obli
gat ion to pay a coi amout, of
money. The law may be stayet inl
its application to eniorce con tracts,
and a sacrifice of property tImreby
aibated ; Itt there are muen who feel a
burden of indchtedness f'lroi whi ich
they seek no rcliof, and would accept
1101, except that which enables thiem
to canctl all claims amainst them.
Credit is a favor, we care not wheth
er' it be for mioney or its equivailent int
sometthling else, a d t ho amatt w~ho is
f'avored withi credit, and stops short of
soti rming that trust in him t by atnothI

Desirable Light.
The R ichmn c2011(orrespontdent oftthe
~ow York Wor/d writes thtat "Genie
rtal Schofield hais iniformted a ammber'
~of (lie Virginian House of delegates
that theo disqualificat ion to v'ote or
'heldl ollie docs not apply under thte
'reconistruiction bill to personis who
'were forced into the rebeol service by
'contsecript ion, notwithstanding they
'had takeni an oatht to suipport the
'Uonstitution of thte United States,
'and served in any of the capacities
'eanerated in the prescribed form of
'ontht. 'fThis wuillI reduce0 the num22
'ber of persons disqualified to v'ote or
'htold office to a very small margin.
'The disqutalifcation will be contfined
'altogethter to those whto v'olunteored~
'in the early part of thte wart, few of
'whtom are ntow hiving. 'The survi
'vors are princeipally of the conscript
'class save perhaps a few officers wvho
'held ranks from the beginning, and
'obtained their comm)issionts by ap
'pointmennt."'
If the interproetationi of Geon. Schoe
old be as it is given by thtis corres
otdent, the d isfranchtising clause in
he scheme of reconistrutctionm is muich
essextensivo in its application than
ye land ever supposed.
Thte Conscription Act was passed int
