"A Few Plain Words.

Our readers will sec, u various places in
our present issue, an important word-REGIS-
TIl-AT1ON. i Now, it will bo well for the III to
pav very particular attention to it (: for it may
become to each and every one of them, at no
very distant day, matter of dollars and cents,
of acres of land, and of light or heavy taxes.
We have urged upon our fcllow-citizcns the ab-
solutc necessity of claiming the privilege Of
the elective franchise. We deem it needless
to indulge further in lengthy arguments.
Enough has already been said OH tho subject
to convince every man of common sense ; and
we do not know of single prominent man in
South Carolina, from Governor Perry to the
most submissive rcconstructionist, who docs
not advocate that every one should register,
whether he votes or not
Now, ono word more aud we are done. Do
not come to the conclusion, that you are dis
franchiscd, because. you shouldcrcd muskct,
and tried to achieve tho independence of South
Carolina; Do not imagine you arc disfranchised,
because you sympathiscd with the rebellion, so
Called Do not imagine you are disfranchscd be-
cause you held some little District appointment
twenty years ago. that everybody yourself in
cluded, had forgottcn, till you studied about it
in this crisis If you have any doubt about
tbn matter of your rights, go to the Board of
Registration at the nearest poll, and state your
case. They have tun pewcrt to decide the qucs-
ton for you, subject to appeal to General
Sicklcs BY giving the Boards such power,
Congress, VIC think, conferred favor on the
people of the South; for every man, who reg
listers upon the advice of the Board, is hereby
safe from any prosecution for perjury. lie
cannot be guilty of wilful and corrupt perjury,
if he acts in good faith, upon the construction
OF the law, by those whom Congress has in
vested with that nnthnr;tu-
So we hope our friends will, every man of
them fnruarl ~"I ,.--r--..- .l..:. ,l.. ),
