Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report of the Adjutant-General of the State of New Jersey for the Year Ending 1861 Being required by law to report "all proceedings relative to the details of the military force ordered by the Commander-in-Chief upon requisition of the President of the United States," together with "the general state of the militia, as also any improvements to advance the discipline and benefit of the militia," I beg leave to submit the following report of military transactions through this office during the past year. The year has been an extraordinary one in the history of the militia of New Jersey. The actual existence of civil war has made it incumbent upon New Jersey, in common with those of her sister States which have remained loyal, to send forth a military force in defence of the government of our country and the ancient constitution upon which it is founded. The prompt response of her citizen soldiery to the call of duty forms a part of the history of the country, and should be a source of pride to every Jerseyman. I allude to it here only to acknowledge how much and how efficiently I have been assisted in the discharge of the vastly increased and complicated duties of this department. In fulfilling requisitions made upon the State, in placing the State in readiness to respond to any future requisition, and for State defence, if necessary, great care has been exercised to comply in every respect with the existing military laws, and to avoid unnecessary inconvenience to the citizen: and although prompt action and the assumption of considerable responsibility of opinion and construction have often been required by the urgency and novelty of the questions arising, and the new duties which the exigency of the times has imposed upon all citizens, requiring, of necessity, some new sacrifices for the public good, I am happy to report that no instance has been brought to my notice where the law has been overstepped, the citizen unnecessarily incommoded, or his civil rights infringed.
