Boards Of Regeneration,

The conduct Of the Boards of Regis
tration in several Of the counties is ont
raging public sentiment and disgusting
all honorable men They have acted in
many cases in complete disregard of the
law, and have generally claimed the
broadcast scope of power which the loose
terms of the law will permit. They
have assumed great latitude in determin-
ing the causes for which tho name of q
voter may DO stricken from the list, and
have sometimes erased names of men
who had complied with all the proyis'
ions Of the law, without SO much as
giving notice to the voter of their inten'
ton, or allowing him to defend his right
to vote. The most shameful violations
of the registration act have been pcrLc'
trated in many instances, and the rights
of citizens have been taken away with
out apology and without redress. The
Boards of Registration have the whole
matter in their own hands. The Legis-
lature has already passed law for their
relief, when sued by the citizens whose
right to vote they have denied. The
people of the State are taxed to pay the
expenses of these men in defending
themselves against suits for damages and
the registration act itself specifies that
no Registrar shall be held responsible
for an error of Judgment The Regis
trar may violate any provision OF the
act with perfect impunitv under tins
"eTrOr Of Judgment clause.
The effect of the arbitrary proceed
,ngs of the boards Of registration viii
certainly be to deepen and Intensity the
Indignation which the people feel against
the radical faction, which is trampliug
down all civil liberty The dearest
right of every citizen Of the state, no
matter how pure he may he nor how
completely innocent Of any crime that
should cause his acknowledgements, is
placed at the mercy of an irresponsible
boa&l of three men from whose decision
there is no appeal How any man who
loves his freedom and sees the condition
of things which has been brought about
by tie radical faction and witnesses
how these men daily violate both the
constitution and the laws of their own
making, can sit down with folded hands
and refuse to labor for the overthrow of
these revolutionists, law breakers and
disturbers of the public peace, is a mys.
terry we cannot iathom,

A distinguished gentleman whose long
experience in public life and skill in dis
corning the drift of political sentiment
entities his opinions to more weight
than is usually accorded to the state
ments of an ordinary observer, writes
as follows concerning the prospects Tor
the overthrow of radicalism in kanawha
county:
"We have had good deal Of trouble TO
break down a league called Inc Ile
roes of America" which haa Deen Sc
cretlv formed in this county ana when
for a time carried the voters almost In
mass in the country. ...
Rnt the league is broken by intestine
strife. which the conservatives improve
nv taking part in thequarrel. Our pros
nscts here are frightening, and we hope
70 heat them at this spring election.
Dnrinr the last month there have been
marvellous changes, and the revolution
is progressing with an accelerated force.
By fall, we shall be all right.
On last Saturday we had corporation
election for this place, and the conseIVa'
tive Mayor Cor. as we call ourselves, Con
stitutional Union men, beat the haulcai
fen TO one. We were ourselves surpiiS'
ed at the result. We are now In hlgh
shirts here, but month since l feared
it would take years to correct public
opinion. ,5
If we had one month more we should
utterly defeat the radicals. we snail
certainly do so in the fall"
We wish to add, for the encourage
ment of tho lovers Of constitutional
liberty, that in every quarter of the
State the cause is progressing glorionSly
We have seen letters from prominent
gentlemen in nearly every county, and
all speak in the same hopeful strain
The prospect for the rejection OF the
proposed constitutional amendment Ii
growing brighter every day, and TIT
radicals in this county who are consolint
themselves with the reflection that thei
victories elsewhere will atone for thei
defeat in Ohio county, are destined t.
meet with terrible disappointment
Their graveyard whistling' will no
avail to keep their party from utter dc
moralization and rout on the oath

III the names of the parties composing
this company, but Judging from those
we have heard mentioned, there
is no doubt that they can command
five times the amount of money
required to pay for the completion OF
even this great work. These are Messrs.
Pell & Co., agents of the London, Liver
pool, and Globe Insurance Company
Henry Grinnell, w. II. Aspinwall, Alex
ander Hamilton, Jr., E. M. Archibald,
Her Britannia Majesty's Consul; a. T.
Stewart, Francis Cettonet, joseph G'
Gaillard, Jr, and Hamilton Fish: There
| is an unmistakable sound OF gold ABOUT
these names, as well as an assurance
that what they undertake to do will
not only be done, but will be we'll done.
These gentlemen, who indeed need no
endorsement in an intelligent commu-
nity, are the same, we have understood,
whom the enterprising business men OF
this CITY had in view last winter when
thew applied for a charter for the -" Viz
pinia, Atlantic, and Ohio Railroad Com
pany." 1t is expected that the outlay
will be some twelve million of dollars
AS we have repeatedly said in this
paper, the Importance of this railroad &c
the interests of this city and State can
not easily be r-estimated. The snort
est line from the Mississippi to the sea
board-along a route where winter holds
SWAY for much shorter period than on
anv of the great competing lines NORTH
of it-havipg a grade over the Alegany
mountains of only twenty-nine and
half feet per mile against one hundred
and sixteen on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad at Cheat mountain--and run
ming through region richer in Goa
than that from which the latter roaC
transports so many millions of tons an
nually, to say nothing of the produc
tions of the soil, and the hogs and cattle
which will be brought over it, the Gov,
ington and Ohio railroad will pour per
ennial stream of wealth into tho lap OF
this city. 80.
In the present impoverished condition
of our people the money which the com
pany will at once bring into the State
and pay over to its employees, who wi!
expend it in our midst, will have q vivi
flying influence upon trade and business
generally. The lapse Of q few month!
will put an entirely different face upor
commercial matters.

Immediate Action .

We urge upon our readers the neceS'
sity for active and untiring eXertlon lot
the rejection of the proposed constitu-
tional amendment. No lawful effort must
be omitted that can in any way con-
tribute to success. Our opponents are
laboriug hard, under the spur oil party
necessity. They feel that their Po"oi
is SHINING from their grasp and they
are working. with the energy Oh deS-
narate men TO be able to defy popular
will. They have staked everything
mon the result of the ensuing cleo
tiop. and, if they fail now, their
mower is broken forever Certainly
the friends of law and order and civil
liberty and white mems rights should
be as jealous in support of the good
cause as their enemies arc for the tri-
umph of tho wrong.
Then 90 to work actively, to-day
tomorrow. and every other day until
the evening of the oath. Talk to your
ueighbors, acquaintances and friends
Show them the enormity of the propos
ed amendment, the evils il will inlet
npon the State. the increased taxation
It's adoption will produce, its injustic6
aud impolicy and wrong, and induce
hem to vote for its rejection. Talk
about the injustice of taxing twenty
thousand of our citizens without per
hitting them to enjoy either civil or po'
litical rights. Think of the danger that
will. result to the peace Of tho State
from the disfranchisement and aliena-
ton of twenty tn ousand citizens.
Reflect that the prescription and
persecution the radicals are to-day striv-
ING to innict upon one class of our citi-
zous, they may put upon yOa tomorrow.
Awake to the necessity Of rebuking nopc
the enemies of civil liberty and repub-
lican institutions, and pow asserting and
defending tho right of the majority to
rule.
We are appealed to by every consider
alton ofpatriotism and right TO make
determined and united struggle, Let
every man commence Immediately and
labor earnestly, exerting all the in0u
ence he can muster, ard we cannot fai
to achieve complete success.

For every one of these items on the
radical programme, except the second,
CHESTER D. HUBBARD has voted. His
course is approved and sustained by his
party in this State, and yet the self
styled Central Union Committee are
trying to make the people believe that
they are not in favor OF negro suffrage
