At a meeting of the citizens of Cabell
county, West Virginia, held at Barbours-
vile, on the Goth ult., the following reso-
lutions were passed.
WHEREAS, Our country is emerging
from a civil war which has disorganized
society, Frustrated the laws, and anar-
chy reigns in localities in this county,
and in order to restore peace, quiet, safe
ty and harmony, we, the people of Cabell
county, in,mass meeting assembled
/. Resolded, That it is the duty of eve
ry individual to lay aside all malice, ha-
tired and ill will, and forgive all personal
wrongs and injuries growing out of the
war, and use every endeavor to unite
and blend together in good will and af-
lection the various elements of society,
by a~nnihilating past party lines and
burying the past in oblivion.
2. Resolued, That it is the like duty of
every individual to lend his active aid,
energies and influence to the erection of
civil government in all its branches,
where it is not already in force, and to
the enforcement of the laws, that life,
liberty and property may be made safe,
and confidence fully reinstated among
the people.
8. RESOLVED, That we approve the Dis
trict Convention to be held at Charles

Negro SIGraGe,

If the President or Congress OF tho
United States has power TO 80 control
tic election laws in any State as to per-
nit negroes to vote, he or they have
power to do the anne thing in all the
States. If Nh. JOHNSON has any right to
establish negro suffrage in North Carroll
M, he has the right to do so i'll West Vlr-
ginia or Ohio. The same constitution is
over the whole Union, and controls or
protects each State alike.
In his North Carolina proclamation the
President stated a very important fact
when he said that the right to prescribe
the qualifications of electors belonged to
the respective States. 1t has been On
ercised by them and has never been i'll
fringed upon since the formation OF the
government In some of the States, for
eigners are required to residei in the State
twentv.one years before acquiring citi
zenship in others, foreigners are per
mitted to vote as soon as they have de-
cl,red their intention to become citizens
In some of the States negroes owning q
certain amount of property are allowed
toyote, in others, negroes are permitted
t. vote upon the same terms prescribed
fur white citizens and in others, ne
groes are not permitted to vote at all
Il IS purely a State question and The
Federal eminent never ha, CLAIMED
or exercised any control over the matter
whatever.
Those who are nov clamoring for the
extension of suffrage 10 the enancipateo
negroes of the south by means OF FEEDER
al power. are clamoring for the violation
of the Constitution of the United States
and for the destruction of a right as 81
cred to the people of the Northern States
a. to those of the South.
If negro suffrage may boestsblished ii
South Carolina 10y a Presidential proels

right of suffrage upon any class OF per
o he has also the power to take i
away. He may, by n proclamation
enfranchise the negroes in Ohio, and b!
another, or the same, disfranchise all thu
whites
This is the power for which the radi
Gals contend, and it is because Presidert

WaYne County.

The following resolutions were passed
at a meeting of the citizens of Wayne
county, West Virginia, held at the Court
House on the 18th ult.:
WHEREAS, Our country is just emerg-
ing from civil war, which has laid waste
u fields and drenched the land in fra
ternal blood; and,
WHEREAS, 1t is to the interest OF all to
restore permanent peace and harmonic
the elements necessary to a well regulat-
ed society; therefore, we, the people Of
Wayne county, in Mass Meeting assem-
bled, do Resolre:
LIST. That in the preservation and per
petuity of the principles set forth i'll the
Constitution and Government Of our
fathers, we most sincerely and devoutly
acknowledge an all wise Providence, who
is the Giver of every good and perfect
gift, and the common Father Of us all;
and we will, in time to come, rely i'm
plicitly upon Him for His protection and
guidance.
I'd. That it is the dn|y OF every midi
vidual to lend his active aid ami energy
to the establishment OF civil law, both
State and National, and to its enforce
lnent for the protection of lie, liberty
and property.
Sd. That we justify and approve the
Amnesty of President Lincoln Its re-
suits have been beneficial, and the croak-
ers and fault finders of the policy are
morally arrayed against the Government
and its best interest, and are not found
among those who have fought its battles
and borne it through the ordeal of war
with success.
4th. That we concur in the convention
called by the citizens of Greenbrier and
Monroe, to meet at Charleston on the
third day of June next, for the purpose
of suppressing lawless persons, aud the
restoration of order throughout the State,
and do appoint and Constitute Mcssrs.

REORGANIZATION in West Virginia.

The work of reorganization in the Dor
der counties of our State is being entered
upon with good faith and unanimity on
the part of the citizens. The "FERGU-
~,v test OATH" passed at the last session
uf the Legislature, is a serious obstacle
III the way of the restoration of regular
ani lawful government. 1t requires the
voter to swear that be never has been
engaged IN the rebellion or given aid and
comfort thereto, and the consequence is
that Observation-Disclosures of the people
IN some of the counties are completely
d~isfranchised 1t is so plainly unconsti-
rational that it will probably be disre-
gained in many places, and the work of
reorganization will go on in spite of the
designs of the fanatics.
We mentioned, some time ago, that a
movement was on foot among the coun-
LES composing the Third Congressional
District, TO hold a convention at Charles
ton, Kauawha county, for the purpose of
devising some measures 10 put a stop to
hushwhaCking and robbery, and secure
the observance OF good order and peace.
Last Saturday was the day fixed for
the meeting of the convention. We have
not yet learned what its proceedings
were, hut, from the fact that it was to be
composed of men of all parties, we look
for much good 70 result from its deliber-
atoms Elsewhere in this mornings
paper may be found the resolutions
passed in Wayne county and in Cabell
county by the meetings which appointed
delegates TO the convention. AT both
these meetings it is said that the utmost
good feeling prevailed, and a general
disposition was manifested to "let by
cones be by-gonesi - forget old grudges;
lay aside all bitterness of feeling which
has sprung up between neighbors during
th1 progress of the war, and all unite har-
m~onionsly for the restoration and main-
'"H"'SS '" SiNh government ihio -
the right spirit, and we hold him as an
enemy to his country who would cast a
fre-hrand among the people to kindle
anew the flames of discord, aud excite
contention and strife.
In the proceedings of the Cabell coun-
ty meeting, we sec no mention OF Mr..
FERGUSON, who misrepresented that
county in the Legislature last winter.
FERGUSON is undoubtedly rather a tai
ented man, but there are certainly his
equals in talent in Cabell county who
will use their influence to better purpose
than he. The return of peace is bring
ing this better class of mel to the sur
face again, and we have much hope that
in the mex Legislature we will have no
more men of the FERGUSON stamp, and
no more such exhibitions of Legislative
folly ~ were witnessed here last winter.

THE case of General LoNGsTREET, now
in Washington City as a candidate for
executive clemency, will probably be
made a precedent for the treatment OF
others excepted from amnesty. 1t is said
that LoNGsTREET has already taken the
oath of allegiance. The result of his ap-
p~lication for pardon will be looked for
with much interest.
