What man is there now so base as to refuse
to register? 1t might have been possible some
months ago that few might have hesitated
when they were not able to realize the frightful
danger; but the man who refuses now toregister,
gives his support to the Sharks, and is either a
moral poltroon or deadly enemy to his friends,
his relatives and his native State.-Noyous

SURRATT. -Surratt looks much worse than he
did at the beginning Of the trial, and seems to
be much troubled as the testimony is brought
out Several times he has appeared very pale,
and seems nervous. His brother is with him
every day, and occupies q seat by, his side in
the courtroom. The prisoner looks around the
room very little, but keeps his eyes upon the
witnesses. During the half-hour recess at II
g clock he passes the time in conversation with
his brother or reading Washington Star.

Language would fail us wherewith to express
our estimate of the unparalleled folly of the
men who, through mistaken notions of dignity
and honor, allow these first elections to 60 by
default in consequence Of their refusal register
We tell them plainly that they will live to regret
it, and will inevitably bring down upon their
heads the deep curses of their felow-citizens
who are to be bound in chains by their persistent
nonsense and inaction. -Lynchbrg Naymian.

The attempt at wholesale disfra nohisemens
and throwing the government of Virginia into
the hands of the negroes should fill the land
with indignation, and SO arouse the people that
not one entitled under General Schofeld' order
to register will fail to do so. We appeal to all,
in the name of the State and by all that they
hold dear on earth, to register = Richmond
