SICKLES FOR THE RELIEF O DESTITUTE IMMEDIATE COLLECTION OF CEK TAIN DEBTS PROHIBITED. Hdqu's Second Militaby District, Charleston, S. C, April 11, 18G7. General Order No. 10. The general des titution prevailing among the population of this military district cannot be relieved without afford ing means for the development of their industrial resources. The nature and extent of the destitu tion demand extraordinary measures. The peo ple are borne down by a heavy burden of debt, the crops of grain and garden produce failed last year, many families have lieen deprived of shelter, many more need food and clothing, useful implements and anxilliaries of husbandry are very scarce: the lalxiring population in numerous localities are threatened with starvation unless snpplied with food by the Government of the United States ; the inability of a larre portion of the peoiile to pay taxes leaves the locnl authorities without adequate means of relief, and the gravity of the situation increased by the general disjiosition shown by creditors to enforce upon an impoverished people the immediate collection of all claims, lo suiter all this to go on without restraint or remedy is to sacrifice the general good. The rights of creditors shall lie resjHjcted, but the appeal of want and ruf fering must lie heeded. Moved by these consider ations, the following regulations are announced, and thev will continue in force with such modifi- ation as the occarion may require until the civil government of the respective States shall lie es tablished in accordance with the requirements of the Government of the United States. The com manding General earnestly desires and confidently believes that the observance of these regulations and the co-operation of all persons concerned in employing fairly and justly the advantages still remaiug to them, will mitigate the distress now existing, and ithat the avenues of industry, enter prise, and organization thus opened Mill confcruV ute to the jK-rmanent welfare and future happi ness of the people. First : Inpnsonment for debt is prohibited, un less the defendant in eqecution shall be convicted of a fraudulent concealment or disposition of his ropcrtv with intent to hinder, delay, and prevent the creditor in the recovery of his debt ordemand, and the proceedings now established North and South Carolina resjiectively, for the truil and de- terminim: of such questions, mav be adopted. otcona. judgment or decrees ior tne payment of monev on causes of action arising lietween the 19th of lXx-eniber, 18G0, and the 15th of Alav, SC."), shall not lie enforced by execution against the property or the person of the defendant.
