Responds to resolutions passed by the South Carolina General Assembly, which feels burdened by the Confederate government's taxation and impressment of slaves for military labor. "[I]t has been the studious effort of the Department to temper its execution by as much of leniency, discretion, and generality as was compatible with its due enforcement or the accumulation of adequate supplies essential to the army." With autograph endorsement signed by Bonham.
