WHO CAN REGISTER :


All:males of full age who have resloea IN Inns

/. Convicted of felony; or
9. Members of any State Legislature, or
8. Executive or judicial officers Of any State or
Members of Congress of the United States,
And have not atter,0ards engaged in instruction
or rebellion against the United States or given aid
or comfort to the: enemies thereof.
1f:tbsv. .1.a7 Been convicted of felony they are
disfranchised $
If they are included in either of the three last
of the above four classes, and, after the hold
ing Of Office, gave any voluntary aid to the rebel
lon took any voluntary part in it, they are dis
franchised.
Hsthey did not hold any of the offices. named,
and have not been convicted of felony, they are
not disffanchissd, whether they did or did not
give aid to the rebellion or take part in the war
against the United States.
If: they did hold any of the offices named, but
did not engage in the rebellion the United
States, or give aid or comfort to the South they
are not disfranchised.
If they did hold any of the Offices named, and
did no. engage in nrebelon orgire sid to the South
after such holding office, they are not disfran-
chised; although before such holding Office they
may have engaged IN rebellion or given aid to the.
South.
The only pointat oil in doubt IS as to what OH
ces are included under the head of Executive or
judicial Office in any State. No definition OF the
phraseis given in the rules for regulation except
that st she'll include call civil offices created by

The Darand Times spaks as fol,
lows regarding some rope walking
feats performed by John Scott, a car.
penter by trade, living in Wisconsin:
The great feat of rope walking by
Prof. John Scott, called together a
very large and enthusiastic crowd of
people. The rope was stretched
from the top of the Ecklor Hetel to
the top of Mr.. riffany's warehouse,
full forty feet from the ground and
making distance in all of over eight
rods. Lit must not be lost sight of
that Mr.. Scott's first trial at this per.
ilous business dates back no father
than last 4th of July, and that he had
exhibited but two times in public be-
fore coming to Durand. Yet despite
inexpericnce and lack of practice in
this art, the Professor stepped upon |
the rope with all the apparent conf |
dence of a Blondin or DeLave, aud |
went through the several feats Of |
standing upon his head. hanging by
his toes, head down, walking back
wards, dancing or keeping step to
music hanging by one arm from two
to five minutes, &C., &C., all Of which
ellicted the most enthusiastic cheers |
from the audience. Young Scott has
followed tho occupation of |
and joiner, and feels as
much at home, he tells US, upon the !
top OF the highest building, or upon
the rope, as when on the ground
The best judges of Eau Clare and
and, many of whom have seen rope
before by distinguished pro-
Fessors, predict a glorious career for
young Scott, some going so far as to
believe him second BIondon. 1t is
seldom we find finer or better de-
veloped muscular system, or steadier
nerve than displayed by this youths
ful prodigy.

A Fearful Scaffold Scene.

A horrible scatfold scene oeeurpd
tho other day in the prison yartI Of
Janor, in Silosia. A young woman,
not of the lowest class of the popula-
ton, was to be beheaded for crafty
ing her jealousy of her former lover
by an act that had led to the death
OF several persons. The faithless man
had deserted her and married anoth,
er girl. Il he deserted mistress, to re-
venge herself, had set his house on
fire, and several persons persisted in
the flames. She was arrested, con-
victed, and sentenced to suffer death.
On the scaffold, just at the moment
when the excutioner barred Der neck
and was about TO fasten her to the Ia
tai block, she broke loose from him
and his assistants, seized tho large AZ
that was to cut off her head, and then
defed the dumfounded officers to
take her. They rushed upon her,
showercd' blows upon her head, and
finally aftershe had slightly wounded
some of them in tho scufiie, she was
knocked down and handcnifed. She
uttered wild, terrible screams all the
while, and the executioner and his
men tried to dispatch her as quickly
as possible-they tore her dress from
her shoulders, tied her feet and bragg
ed her TO the block. Although she
still screamed and resisted to the best
of her power, the leathern strap on
the block, by which the head of the
victim is drawn forward, was soon
slipped over it, and the executioner
seized the axe. Unfortunately, the
dreadful scene had made him quite
nervous, and on striking he missed
her neck, and cut deeply into her
shoulder and back. The blood rushed
from the fearful wound, and the
screams of the unfortunate woman
were heart rending beyond descrip~
ton. A second blow, dealt her few
moments afterwards, finally put An
end to her to sufferings.
