deprecated a perseverance IN snch
system of legislation, as calculated to
SOW the seeds of perpetual discord, to
ALLEVIATE from one another those who,
with united hearts and hands, should
now labor together to build up the IN
terests and renew the ancient glories
of our State and country. The State
needs the services, the skill, the talent
aud competency of all her sons. 1t is
to the mutual advantage of all that
should have them, Why deny them to
her, in the interest only of bitter par
tisanship? Mr. B. alluded to the teach
ings of history on the subject OF per
petuating punishments and disabilities
for political differences of opinion; ana
said how inyariably true it vas TIA

from themselves; that those who sharp
ened the knives of CONSUMPTION, were
often subsequently, made their victims.
In view of the recommendation which
has been made by the Governor OF this
State in reference to the enactment OF d
registry law here, the facts stated above
and the opinions expressed by so ol''lh-
guished statesman as MONTGOMERY
BLAIR are full of interest to the people
of West Virginia That such an act
would produce here fruits similar to
those it has brought forth in Maryland
cannot be doubted, and its enactment
here would be more inexcusable than it
was there 1t was passed there year
ago, while the war was still pending
and was advocated mainly as "a war
measure" bnt what would he the folly
and crime of those who would inaugu-
rate such a system now, while the ma

save the qualification of an unholy lust
of power or an internal revenge could be
addnced in favor of the scheme

The Registry Envfn NEnryInub

In the state of Maryland one year ago
a radical legislature, elected by means
Of test oa,hS and bayonets. passed an
act for the registration Of voters. Ii
placed in the hands Of certain commits
sioners in each county the duty of record
ing in books kept for that purpose the
names of all the loyal" vOters in the
State, and any low bred scouudrel could
secure the disfrauchisement of his neigh
Dor by appearing before the commission
erS aud making oath that he did not con-
slider his neighbor loyal" man. at
some voting precincts in the state not
more than ten or fifteen voters are regis
tered. and the registered voters of the
whole state do not number moro than
one fourth Of the white male citizens
above the age of twentv-one years "
The law has been found to operate badly
for the interests of the state; it places all
official anu political powerin the hands
of an insignificant minority who legis-
late for their own advantage and profit

There have been about seventy amend
ments to the Federal constitution pro-
posed at the present session of congress-
and the members are not half through
There ought to be at least hundred
moro brought in before the session
closes. The Radicals think they have
invented a machine for the ratification
of any alteration in the Anticipated or
ganic law which they may propose
They first use the party screws to torce
the proposit ion through congress, ana nd
then deny representation to the States
until their legislatures have ratifed the
amendment. for it is one of the pecn-
liar features of the radical faith that
the Southern States are in the Union
lust enough to ratify amendments 10
the constitution but not quite enough
to be represented in congress. t.Si'
nice little game" but it won't VIII
The amendment basing representation
unon the number of voters is the most
important one before the House, and the
one most likely to succeed. The final
vote upon its passage in the House OF
representatives is expected to-day 1t
offers to every State bride for the en-
reimbursement of the negro, for II there
was no negro in in ct of course the pres
ent Congress would not touch 1t, by
basing representation in Congress upon
the number of actual voters, without
distinction to race or color, each State
will he directly interested in charging
the number Of its voters, and will be
compelled, for self defense, and in order
to compete in political power with New
England, to enfranchise negroes and
every other class capable OF enfranchise-
ment at all. If the amendment is pass
ed by Congress, and ratified by the States
our West Virginia radicals will find that
Inv the disfranChisement of those who
have heen engaged i'll the rebellion they
have lost at least one representatives IN
the National Congress, and that, not on
/. mist all the rebels be enumerated
among the voting population, but that
all the negroes also in this State must be
invested with the right of suffrage. in
order that our State may have that num-
Der Of representatives in Congress 10
which she is Justly entitled.
This is mere outline OF the present
radical scheme. How do you like the
prospect. gentlemen of the legislature
1t is an arrangement prepared by your
own party friends to compel You to adopt
negro suffrage; and unless you agree ito
low every negro in the State to vote
your friends in Congress say that West
Virginia shall dwindle into political IN
significance in comparison with other
States whose white population is far
less than ours 1t is peculiarly Repub-
lican scheme, ori ginated and engineered

will be by strictly Republican votes -

To '.Luciua"
Aprinted card, having been circulated
freely in this community, over the sig
nature of "LUCIUS," in which grave
charges are preferred against Judge n;
Harrison, of Monroe, we, citizens OF
Greenbrier, acknowledging the import
ance of an incorruptible Judiciary, re-
spectfully request that you, publicly,
over your true name and signature,
either make your charges good against
the Judge. or publicly acknowledge your
inability to do so, and thereby relieve
him from the impntations of your circu-
lar. This is due to the people, and es-
pecially to Judge Harrison. .-s
We find the above card in the Lewis
burg Times signed by some thirty-si1
prominent citizens Of Greenbrier county,
MASON MATTHEWS, Dr.. d. c. D. CALD-
