The Registration OF voters.

The General Assembly on Wcdnes.
day finally passed the amended law for
registering the voters of the State. 1t
provides that the registers shall sit for
ten days next preceding the second day
prior to any election, whether special
or general, State, federal, or municipal,
to discharge their duties, They arc
then to make an alphabetical list of all
registered voters, close the registry, and
make two fair copies, one for the clerk
of the court aud tbs other for the Judge
OF election. The formality of publish.
ing lists of voters in the newspapers is
dispensed with, the theory of the law
being that the registers arc public of
iccrs sworn to do aud who will do their
duty faithfully, and thlt it is every man
business, entitled to vote, to see that
his name is duly recorded.
The fourteenth section If the bill cuts
mp by the roots the most sgitatod ques-
ton at our isst election, as to the pow.
or of the judges Of election to review
the work of the registers, BY declaring
that they "shall receive the vote Of ev.
cry one whose name duly appears on
the registry, under penalty of not less
than $500 nor more than 1000 for
refusing, aud to be imprisoned besides
until the fine and costs are paid aud
moreover shall be liable to the private
suit of the injured party, and be dis.
qualified from holding Office in the
State. The penalty may appear very
severe, but it viii not be SO regarded
when We reject that the securities anu
snnctiiy of the ballot is tho only safe
guard Of our liberties. Aud the gross
abuses Of power BY judges Of election
heretofore, for the lowest party aims,
require ihattlleir i'll practices should be
tcrnlinsicd forever. The provisions of
the registry law are made to cover the
case Of an election for a convention, and
upon the adoption or rejection of the
constitution, as well as for the selection
Of officers. - Bait ,Sa,.

We regret exceedingly the want Ct
magnanimity which is shown by the
North in its present treatment of the
South. The people there seem to be
totally obliYioas OF the fact that they
had ever done any thing to provoke the
South into rebellion. They should re.
member that the Northern people, con-
trary to the spirit of our government
and the constitution, conspirod to force
their peculiar views upon the people OF
the South, not satisfied 10 wit until, in
the due course Of nature, their ideas
would be bound to prevail il right. No
matter how wrong may have been the
opinions entertained by the people of
the South, or how great was their error
in rcsortiug to arms when they did, we
must ever believe that the Radicals of

Tnc Races or Men.

nMC A&ACGa W A4CAs
The celebrated naturalist, Professor
Agassiz, has b.en delivering a coarse
Of lectures in New York on Natural
History, mainly devoted to his recent
explorations in Brazil, South America
In his last lecture, entitled, "The Mon.
keys and the Native Inhabitants of
South America" which We find report
cd in the New York Day Book, he
took up the subject Of the origin of
speeies, both as relates to the monkey
tribes aud To mankind. lie combats
the theory Of the transmutaticnists who
maintain that by sornc sort of natural
law Of progress one inferior species Of
animal may turn into another. Follow
ing up the records, or fossil remains,
exhibited in the various strata Of the
earth's crust, he infers that these were
all independent creations of the Divine
Mind, brought into existence after the
old order Of things had fulfilled its des-
tiny, and physical changes had taken
place suited to the existenceof a higher
order Of beings. In like manner he
maintains that the different species Of
animals existing at present on earth
were distinct aud independent creations,
and never had the same origin--Also
that the same is true in regard to the
various species of Men; and that the
different colored races never sprang from
the same source--exeept as common
children Of the same Creator. In this
he seems to agree with the authors of
that elaborate work, The Types of
Mankind, who maintain that the whole
earth is divided into distinct por.
tons, or basins, each having a diff.
ferent Fauna aud Flora--that is diff
ferent species of animals aud vegetables
peculiar to itself. Il is indeed remark
able, when we consider how peculiar
are the productions Of various portions
Of the earth, both as regards the animal
and vegetable kingdoms. In almost
everything they are as different from
each other as the several species of
Men, who seem to have origina ed there,
and stand in every instance as the
browning head of the whole creation of
their several sections of the earth.
This is subject well worthy of the
attention of inquiring minds and one
of some political Importance at the pres
ent time. II it eau be proven that the
various races, or species, of men have
always been as distinct from each other
as we now find them-that they were
created entirely different at the first
then there is reason in the argument of
those who maintain that there are ply
steal and moral differences which re-
guire a separation of distinct races into
distinct nations; and will bring to
caught all the efforts of those who seek
to amalgamate in this country, on equal
terms, two of the most different races
on the face of the earth.
