RICHMOND, VA, March /, 1867.
John Ha,crhurSt, Esq, Alexandria, Va:
Dear Sir,-In reply to your favor asking
my opinion as to who are to vote at the
municipal elections this spring under the
act of Congress, known as the Sherman
bill, providing for the more efficient go
vernment of the rebel States, commonly
called the military bill, l have the honor
to answer that have examined the law.
II will be in force from the time of its pas
sage. All male citizens over the age OF
twenty-one years are entitled to vote at
all elections, except those disqualified.
The colored people are undoubtedly emit
tied to vote, under the bill, at your NUM-
cipal election, if the bill passes Congress
before the election day comes.
/ am yours, &C.,
F. II. PEIRPoINT.

From Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 6-Senator Cameron
said to-day, in conversation with Secretary
Seward, that President Johnson, had he been
wise man, would have signed the recon
struction bill, and gotten himself back in to his
old harness. He might then perhaps have
been forgiven for some OF the wrong he had
done during the last four months. Now 1t Is
too late to forgive him.
The wool tariff goes into effect at once, but
the Senate Finance Committee will report in
favor of its suspension for ten days. The Sc
cretary of the Treasury has not received q
certified copy of the bill.
The appropriation to pay Treasury agents
appointed regardless of the test oath was
| stricken ont by the conference committee be-
fore the bill passed.

Mr., SEWARD As A SForPER-The publiea-

has drawn from the Boston Transcript the re-
mark that the pu bile will never know how
many foolish things Mr Seward stopped while
Mrs Eincoln was mistress Of The White
House. . That the sage Of Auburn exercised
eAtfaofdinary powers during the administra-
llon OF Mr.. Lincoln is not questionable. His
anu anu reserve We're OF the greatest service to Mr.
Lincoln But 1t is not clear that he merits all
the credit the Transcript awards; aud il the
Sal'aht s secretary was able, as claimed, to stop

pie to continue the system, Tor it will certain
ly save immensely more in taxation, misery,
crime and even death averted. The State
would be the gamer, said Mr.. Nye, if by ex-
pending eveh these sums the sources OF in
temperance could be SO nearly dried up as
they have been. The saving in taxation alone
would defray the expense. In 1916 thorough
execution OF the prohibitory act of that year,
saved $1,000 in the parper expenses of the
single town OF Fairfieli.
But, said Mr.. Nye, the baseness of these
Misrepresentation is seen, when it is known
that the whole expense OF tie COnstabulary
for the six months ending Oct 1st, will not
much, if any, exceed nine thousand dollars
and out OF this are to come the fines imposed
on rum-selers. The aggregate expense tor
the whole year cannot exceed thirty thousand
dollars, said Mr. Nye, and from this is to b,
deducted all the fines, reducing the cost sew
eral thousand dollars.
AT the outside, said Mr.. Nye, the Constabu-
larry system cannot cost ON an average more
than toe cents gear TO each individual IN
the State, while 1t viii save to each fifty times
that amount, and to very many thousands VI
times that sum, to say nothing OF WHAT - ~

The Time Almost AT Hand.

The first circular or order on reconstruction,
setting forth the general manner of registering,
has long since been issued by the Military Com
mandcr of this District. The announcement Of
Registrars, and the exact designation of time and
places Of registering, may be looked for during
the present week; rs the work is advertised, in
the aforementioned circular or order, to begin
on next Monday. And ve now refer to this sub.
jcct to caution all persona not disfranohised
against neglecting to be registered. ANY indiGer-
eucc or neglect in this important matter will, in
reference to the political issues which are soon to
be determined by the voters who are to be regis
terod under tho recent military order, be ine1eu-
sable-unpnrdonablo-ori The citizen who
ahall prove delinquent on this occasion, who
from any consideration shall fail to have himself
registered, will stand in the attitude of one who
deserts his post in a moment of great peril to his
cause and country. He will incur the scsorc up
braiding Of his own conscience, aud the rcproach
of bis fellow-citizens. His rights, his property,
his every interest will bo exposed to the greatest
peril. It will demand the united votes Of all
good citizens, without regard to old and past
divisions of parties, to snve the government of
the State from falling into the hands of band of
irresponsible persons.
Tho authentic exposition of the law by the At
torncy General of the United States has been re-
ceivcd'; and by it these Registrars will bo-or
ought to be bound. But whatever may be done,
or may be npprehendcd, every good citizen will
be obligated by every consideration of manhood,
Of patriotism, and of regard for the welfare of
tho community of which he forms o part, to per-
form his duty in this MATTER to exercise his rights
and if defeated or DISTRACTED therein, to throw
upon the other party the responsibility therefor.
And it will bc not only the duty of every quail
Jed citizen to register himself, but to go further
and employ his influence to induce others to do
so. All who think thoy arc qualified should ap-
ply for their certificates. If there are doubts in
regard to their qualification, let tho Registrars
solve the question.
1.-THE registry will open very soon. The duty
Of registration should be exercised as promptly
as possible. No citizen ought to feel free to at
tend to hi, ordinary business affairs until he has
relieved his mind and conscience of this duty.
