THE ANNUAL CoScERr Of the Congregational
Church Sabbath School, in this Village, was held
at the Brick Church, last Sabbath evening. The
attendance was large, and the services Of the most
interesting character The report Of the Treasurer,
Mr. c. W Storrs, was satisfactory Mr. Hop
kins, the indeatigable Superintendent, gave
brief outline Of the history OF Sabbath Schools in
Montpelier, from 1916 up to the present time.
The report was very interesting, and must have
cost the Superintendent no small amount Of labor
in the procuring Of facts known To few of the
present inhabitants OF Montpelier most of those
who first aided in the Enterprise, being dead, or
having removed TO distant parts In 1916 there
was but one SabbathSchool in the village; inlsiS
three we're organized in different parts Of the
town, and in 1926 the present Congregational
Church Sabbath School was organized The re-
port embraced many points Of interest, and gave
the names Of very many who were teachers and
scholars in these schools, and who are now oc-
cupying responsible positions of trus, and use
fulness in this and other communities The aver
age attendance of the school, during the first half
OF the past year was li3 during the last half,
1885, during the last month 100; thu. showing a
steady increase Of interest IN cause calculated to
promote the best interests Of every community.
At the meeting held in the Vestry last Monday
evening for the election Of officers Of the School
for the present year, Mr.. Hopkins was again re-
elected Superintendent j. A. Page, Assistant
Superintendent Peter Mitchell, Librarian, and
Orville Fish, Assistant Librarian.

TIC Rnntc Convention.

The hest evidence we eau afford the
public of the nature of the "Loyal'
Convention that will assemble at Phila-
phia on the Sd of September, is to be
found in the following announccment in
the n. Y. Tribune of Saturday
Erred. Douglas, it is reported, has
been elected delegate from Rochester
to the Loyal Southcrners Convention ia
philadelphia, which win make no objec-
tons to his color. Such recognition
of the stake his race have in the country
is in noble contrast with the admission
Of the worst Of Rebels to the Randall
Convention. The Union party is per-
fectly willing-nay, anxious-that the
loyal colored men should have a voice
in It's conventions.

REGISTRATION.


As far as we can learn, registration is
proceeding in satisfactory manner in
all the districts of the County, except
in Manchester, Myers aud Taneytown,
where the Registers are said to be ac-
ting in the style most approved Of by
the Radicals. We hear great complaint
of the conduct of Registers in these
Districts. Many have kept back, uu-
willing to subject themselves to the OBJ
noxious course Of the Registers, and in
hopes that they might be removed
The Governor can remove them for in
capacity or misconduct; but We have
too much to lose by the necessary delay,
and other obstacles To justify reno
val the evidence of misconduct must b f,
glaring-such as refusal to administer
the oath to applicants, sending them
word to stay away &c. indicating an un-
fitness to act as an impartial judge and
not what may be considcrcda mere mis-
taken judgment, such as refusal TO cor
rect cases improperly entered last year,
on which there may be difference Of
opinion.
We have no doubt, should the Gov
ernor revoke the commission Of any Of
these refractory Registers, he would be
advised to refuse to surrender the book
to his successor, rendering mandamus
necessary, which would have TO be de-
cided by the County Court, after await
ing the laws delay. Should new books
be furnished it would doubtless lead to
litigation or, at all events, 10 the at
tempt at exclusion Of such voters by the
judges Of the election, who are not cx-
pectcd to be favorable. On the whole
we have concluded, that the best that
can be done is for all who are entitled
under the law to demand their rights at
the hands of these Registers, submit.
ting to their ycXatious proceedings
rather than lose their votes which
their adversaries most desire. The
votes we might thus lose may be the
means of our losing the Conservative
ticket in the County this year, as well
as the candidate for Congress who is to
run against Frank Thomas. All who
think President Johuson wo thy of sup
port should make some sacrifice to sus-
tain him. The worst that can happen
is, that some of them may be rejected by
the Registers but VIC have little doubt
that the Conservatives will have such Il
majority in the Legislature as to soon
wipe out the disability. We would in.
deed regret it should We not get such
majority this year, as better Registers
may be obtained next year; but, under
all the circumstances, we cannot advise
our friends in those districts to neglect
to register, when theirfrieuds elsewhere
arc doing all they can to succeed, aud
expect them to come up to their help as
far as possible. We say-put the Reg
listers to the responsibility of rejecting
you if they dare and trust to the lu-
ture with confidence that your rights
must be speedily obtained The more
numerous and outrageous the reflections
by the Registers, the more effective will
be the means of redress.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1866-09-06

We callattention to the opinion OF
Hon. Rcyerdy johnson on the Registry
law, endorsed by other able lawyers
After this We do not know how any one
can doubt as to the right of correcting
the improper entries Of last year. We
shall expect to hear that nearly all our
Registers are following the advice now
given by eminent counsel in all parts OF
the State.
we give below some interesting OK
tracts from an article written in HaGcrs-
town and published in the Williamsport
Free Pres.
The law in effect reads "Any one
who has given aid, comfort countenance
and support by any open deed or word
declariny his adhesion to the cause OF
the enemy"
ANY one whose mind is not deformed
by prejudices will see at glance that
the open word or dc ed must be deela-
ration of adhesion to The cause of the
enemy
1t is not, therefore, any word or decd
in opposition to the public measures OF
the administration. All men, at all
times aud everywhere in this country
have had the right to do that. The
open word must be one of adhesion to
the enemy, not one wherein the citizen
declares, as the constitution Of the Uni
ted States entities him, his dissent or
objection or hostility to the public acts
of those in power.
10 say that the "war was wrong OF
that the emancipation proclamation was
unjust, or that the arrest Of citizens was
'tyranncal,' that the measures Of gov.
crnmcut were oppressive, OF any other
conceivable expression or declaration
Of dissent or dsapproyal Of the admin
istration, no matter in what terms OF
language; whilst il may have been very
unpopular, was still not declaring adhe
sion to the enemy, or expressing "dc
sire for the triumph Of the enemy

unless they were openly declared they
do not constitute disqualification.
Now the Constitution speaks only oi
