Examine tine sscgissry,

The Union clubs of the several districts
should appoint at their next meeting COM
miltee Of intelligent and reliable men TO ex.
anime the lists ofnamps entered on the books
of registration by the new board of registers,
and if they find any names of disloyal men
entered, who can be proven disloyal, let the
committees lose no time in procuring the
proper evidence, and hand written state,
ment Of such evidence to the officers of regis
tration. The registering officers can then
summon the proper witnesses aud thus pre-,
vent those, who being disoyal, are, never
theless, willing to perjure themselves, i is
impossible for the registers to know every
man. or his rebellion record, and without
the assistance Of loyal men, they are liable
to be imposed upon, and incur the penalties
prescribed, by unwttngly registering dis
loyal persons. Let this be punctually at
tended to. We want every man who is en-
titled to vote under the law, to have the
privilege Of doing so ; and no man who has
been disloyal to his country, in the hour Of
its greatest need, should be permitted to
participate in the government of the State,
until he ia purged Of his guilt.

from the Union party, who have joined that
Wild hunt for office, has been seldom seen
m Elkton, than the Copperohnson gathering
i'll front Of Wells hotel on Saturday night
last There We're, perhaps, 200 or $50, all
told, including the outer circle Of boys and
contrabands, attracted by the music, which
composed one third Of the gathering Great
efforts had been made by the leading Cop
perheads to drum up large meeting to hear
Mr. Evans aud other guns fire off their cop

But the speeches. What shall we say of

eating his .iStle son to the infamous cause he
has espoused, by swearing him like young
Hannibal to eternal enmity to the Union
cause. on the altar which traitors have erect
ed against their country. We hope the son
will inherit all the parents fine talents, not
to abuse and disgrace, but that he may be-
come shining light in this lard of liberty
as his father might have been, in place of
descending to the pitiable state Of making
maudlin speeches to blue noses and yelling
Copperheads.
Six speakers entertained the Coppcrohn-
son gathering. Mr. James McCuulcy. that
former saunch temperance lecturer and
Union politician, looked like he felt 'mighty
bad when he faced that drunken crowd. 49,
There was a great field for him to have reaped
immortal glory BY delivering temperance
lecture, but he contcnted himself by squeak

We must not neglect to do Mr. j. N. Miller
the honor OF here mentioning the fact that
this being his maidn $pc4~t, there is some
excuse for his effort being such an abortion.
Stump made an honest little democratic
speech, which means all the world over
that the rebels were right in trying to break
