Closing of the Registrations Office
Only sixteen Hundred white Free
r,ss.s, in navfds0sl County. %

Closing of the Registrations ONCE
only sixteen Hundred white Free
men in davidson County.
Major Alden, Registration Commissioner
for this county, closed his Office yesterday,
and no more certificates Of registration are
to be issued. All yesterday a large crowd
Of negroes and no small number Of white
men were joslling about on the outside of
the little brick building on the corner Of
Cedar and Park streets, and many who
were unable to procure the coveted parch-
ment went away toward nightfall with
heavy hearts, and breathing imprecations
upon the hard fate which deprived them Of
the sacred right Of all American citizens.
The result fthis grand nockery Of regis
tration, which has been in progress for 80
many weeks, is, thai four thousand -four
hundred colored men have been made
voters, while only sixteen hundred whites
can show certificates This puts the total
number Of voters 10 Davidson county at
six thousand.
Had the Office remained open, there can
scarcely be a doubt that nearly twice that
number would have been eflectually vested
with the right of suffrage, and Davidson
county would doubtless have cast in the
August election larger vote than was ever
before pOlled within her borders. The vote
before the war averaged about six thousand
FIVE hundred, which shows decrease of
four thousand nine hundred in the number
Of white electors. As late as the county
election in March, 1866, there were six
thousand voters, bat by the workings of the
registration machine, all but sixteen hun
dred of these have been disfranchised, and
now comprise that portion of the present
slave population Of Davidson county which
il to be enfranchised hereafter
There were runOrs on the street yester-
day morning that the registration Office had
been broken into and the books stolen, but
these reports lacked confirmation, and
the sibylline volumes may be supposed to
be safe
