Morgan County.

A special term of the Circuit Court of this
County commenced the ID of September, and
continued until the regular term on las.
Monday the 9th.
Among the causes of interest was the ease
of ARdreW Sets VS.. The Board of Reo;s,ro.
ton Of NorgdH County. This was a sui.
brought by the plaintiff to recover damages
for striking his name from the list of reSiss
tered voters, and in his declaration he CHARGED
that the act was done malieiOusly, cOrruptIv.
aud without any justifable cause, and wilhout
any notice TO him. : he defendants demurred
to the declaration upon the ground that thew
were Judicial officers, and AS such not liable
IN law TO the plaintiffs action. The demurrer
was argued at the May term of the Court bv
Mr.. j. I. Hoke in support of the demurrer,
and by Messrs. Faulkner and Blackburn. for
the plaintiff. Judge Hall ut the late speciaI
term delivered his opinion in the case, over
ruling the demurrer. He said the idea was
not to be tolerated for one moment that INV
oihcer IN this State, Judicial or Ministerial
should act maliciOusly and corruptly in Office.
aud not be responsible in damages TO IN.
party agSrieved. The cause will probably be
tried upon its merits, at TIE regular term, now
in progress.
Another case that excited considerable
interest was the Indictment against Frederick
heeier, for rape, alleged to have been com
mttted upon Mrs. Ann Swain. in November.
lSOl- The prisoner was defended by Col.
W. +: Maulsby, Of Frederick City. Md. and
Mr. Faulkner, of this place. H. II. Black
burn, Esq, representing the Stnte. a ver-
Diet was found by the jury against the prisoner,
liking the term of his imprisonment at ten
years in the Penitentiary. 4 motion for a
new trial was pending at our latest accounts

REGISTRATION,

The period for manufacturing voters in
West Virginia is again at hand, and We no.
tice that the Registrar for Chariestown town.
ship has posted his notices that he will be at
his shop in Charlestown, on the Sd Monday
in September, for the purpose of "amending
and correcting" the list of registration in this
township. Now, this notice was posted on
Saturday evening last, and as yesterday was
the Sd Monday, but one days notice was al
lowed, and that the Sabbath. BY this sys>
tenn of trickery, the radicals of this county
hope and expect to defraud the conservative
voters of the township of their privileges of
franchise, and to obtain an easy victory by
registering the organized radicals and ex-
GLIDING the disorganized conservatives
This is another outrage to be added to the
long catalogue of rascalities which the domi-
nant party of this county have inflicted upon
the people, and in the general reckoning that
is close a: hand, will but add another to the
many wrongs to be avenged.
If by correcting, the Registrar means the
striking off of any of the eIeUen or thirteen
IoyaI, on the registry last spring, we shall in
deed begin to despair of the republic, and
our prediction, so oft repeated, will soon be
realized, that a sufficient number of the
righteous loyal will not be found to save it
from destruction. If amending is intended,
as we are inclined to think it is, to add any
or all who may Indicate true allegiance to and
fnI ~, - 4
clearly that the handwriting is on the wall,
aud that the gluttony of power, the tyranny
of position, and the corruption of place, will
soon terminate, even in our own outraged,
wronged, and radicalruined county. May
the fortunes of Providence hasten the long
prayed for period, and rescue US from our
present uuholy bondage.

BERKELEY AFFAIRS.

From the NeN Era of last week we COPY
the following local items =
Our AGRICULTURAL SOC1ETx.-Berke-
ley and Jefferson having recovered somewhat
from the damages and ravages of war, would
1t not be well for our energetic and o-ahead
farmers to renew our old Agricultural Society.
There are incalculable advantages to be de-
rived from an organization such as We here
propose 1t brings together the real solid
men OF every community, and by uniting capt.
tai enables all to have the most improved
stock, implements of husbandry, &c. Il will
increase the price of lands, stimulate compe-
nuOn, and IN fact operate advantaCeOusly for
US, from every point of view.
Many OF our citizens can remember with
what success ike undertaking was crowned
some years ago, when such a society wus
formed, and Col Edward Colston was its first
PRESIDENT, and the interest in little while
taken by all IN the movement. We ask the
earnest attention of the agricultural portion
OF our citizens of Berkeley and Jefferson TO
these suggestions Of ours Let them tax,
the matter in hand, call a meeting. and va
have no doubt it will be heartily responded
to by tie community generally.

Gov. Throokmorton's Defence.

The recital of facts made by Governor
Throckmortnn in Illustration of the abuses of
power in Texas by the underlings of Gen.
Sheridan is startling. The details are shock
ing and III some Instances utterly revolving
negro who has ravished a Young white
girl is taken out of the hands Of the civil au>
thorities and shielded from the penalties of
the law. An insueut and upstart lieutenant
publishes an order such as Nero might have
gloated over, and afterwards. acting in the
spirit of his threat murders part of family
in the night time in cold blood And Gen.
Griffin, when this atrocious occurrence was
reported to him by Governor Throckmorton,
refuses even to investigate it.
An invalid old man is thrust into prison on
vague charge of having attempted to OBJ
struct the registration of a negro and treat
ed with such brutality by the soldiers that he
dies in few hours All sorts of oppression
has been practiced upon the whites by the of.
fcers of the Freedman's Bureau. Troops
are kept idle in the centre of the State, where
they are only useless expense, while hum
dreds of citizens are murdered by Indians on
the Texas frontier. And to keep up this
kind of rule in the South the toiling millions
Of the North are compelled to pay many mil.
lions of dollars annually. Was it not time
to remove Sheridan? Is it not high time to
put an end to this whole system of costly aud
outrageous desp Otism

THE SITUATION.

We refer our readers to the article in an
other portion of to.day's issue, on the subject
of impeachment. 1t is unmistakably the in
tentiOn of the Rump Congress at its approach
ing session, to prefer articles of impeachment
against the President, and the cOuiectures of
the HeraIEs correspondent sustain the opin
ion that he will resist any such unconstitu>
tiOnal action. Should this be tho case, the
days of radicaiism are numbered, aud these
usurPers who have sought to crush out the
liberties Of the people, will be hurled from
power before the approach of another Presi-
dental election
We make no apology for the'space devoted
to the publication of this article. Concur
ring entirely in the views expressed by the
writer, We could not, in our judgment, EN-.
ploy our columns more prOftaby than in thus
keeping our readers advised of what is going
on at the national capital. This correspond
ent seems to be thoroughly posted as to the
real condition Of affairs, and the statements
made by him are entitled to greater conf
deDce than the majority of rumors which
find their way into the columns OF the seusa-
ton press of the country, aud are fully borne
out by the events. which have been trans.
Piring at Washington during the last two
months.
We referred vaguely to these matters in
our last issue, and the article to which we
alIude, satisfies US the more fully that the
President does not mean to be overruled by
the unconstitutional body which arrogates to
itself the government of the Country: That
he will resist attempt at impeachment is our
firm conviction, and that he will be sustained
by majority of the people north and south,
is by no means improbable. In this event,
the issue cannot be doubtful
