Quite a number of the citizens have taken the oath of allegiance. Numerous others have been registered, preparatory to being sworn in. The churches on Sunday have been well filled. The Loyal Georgian has been discontinued for want of patronage. The Republican is now the only paper issued. But few people have, as yet, arrived from the North. Quite a number of the residents have left for New York. The oath of allegiance is only requested of those persons who wish to go into business. We are told the substance of it is this: "I solemnly swear and affirm that I will obey all laws passed by the Congress of the United States, and will also obey all proclamations by the President of the United States which are legalized by a decision of the Supreme Court."
