Right TO Vote.

In the Supreme Court Of Kings
county, on the ID inst, Judge Gilbert
decided that the fact Of a citizen having
scr"ed in the Confederate army during
the war, does not deprive him OF the
rightdo vote in that State. The ques-
ton was decided in n case whore Au-
gustus Wheeler applied for n manda-
mus to compel the register Of the first
district ofthc| seventeenth ward, Brook
Ign, TO register his name in order that
he might vote, Mr.. Wheeler admitted
having served in the Confederate army
as a surgeon, and for that reason his
name was refused. The Judge said:
''Ihc inclination, in my mind, is very
strong to work his Acknowledgement,

SO. The fact Of his having been n
rebel, the warbcing over, and ne being
no longer in arms against the govern

privcd him of no right or immunity
whatever. 1t has only subjected him
to punishment for reason The de
cision concluded with the issuance Of
the mandamus, compelling the regis
