Doc. 107.-proclamation of Brig.-Gen. Pope. St. Charles, Mo., July 19, 1861. To the People of North Missouri: By virtue of proper authority, I have assumed the command in North Missouri. I appear among you with force strong enough to maintain the authority of the Government, and too strong to be resisted by any means in your possession usual in warfare. Upon your own assurances that you would respect the laws of the United States and preserve peace, no troops have hitherto been sentou will respect its authority and put down unlawful combinations against it, you will be relieved of the presence of the forces under my command, but not till then. I, therefore, warn all persons taken in arms against the Federal authority, who attempt to commit depredation upon public or private property, or who molest unoffending and peaceful citizens, that they will be dealt with in the most summary manner, without awaiting civil process.
