The words cor otherwise manifestly
include all such cases; so that all persons
who neglected to be registered last year,
who can take the required oath, may be
registered this year. Those who applied
last year and were rejected may possibly
have no redress short of suing the Reg
listers, or getting pardoncd by vote of
two thirds of the Legislature.
Some uncertainty exists as to the
kind Of Registers Gov. Swami will ap-
point, as the Radical papers and Con
