producing sucf sattering results. 1t is full of
fresh attractive and useful matter specially inter-

partment is complete, and contains abundance of
sensible; practical information. The illustrations
are beautiful and numcrous-the tone of the litera-
ry articles Highland, in fact, the entire contents
are greatly above the average, from first to last.

ADJOURNMENT.

The District Court adjourned on Thursday morn
ing last The following sentences were pronoun-
ced, and the prisoners remanded to the hospitali-
ties of the McGukin House, viz:
Frank Sherard, (colored, indicted for larceny,
and sentenced to Imprisonment for FIVE days and
to pay fne.cf $500.
JOHN D. BURTON, assault and battery. Sen
tencc, two months imprisonment and Sl0O fine.
Edy Thompson, (colored,) assault Sentence,
$500 fine.
Tilman Young, (colored,) larceny. Sentence
ten days Imprisonment and $500 6ne
Le,tus Tilley, (colored,) petit larceny Sen
tence, five days Imprisonment and $500 fine.
1t is worthy of remark, as one of the growing
evils of the times that these fines against the col
ored population are seldom collected. Having nc
power to enforce collection, the Court is COM
PEELED to make the fine merely nominal, and il
nine cases out of ten the Gum named might q:
we'll be one cent as five or ten dollars. The fac
illustrates the helpless attitude Of our judiciary
and deters many from seeking redress for dana
ges incurred from larceny OF otherwise

REGISTRATION.

The nnb,ic square of this village was crowded on
Monday morning last with freedmen anxious to en-
;sv the privilege of registering their names as
voters. and they appeared sorey disappointed when
informed taat registration had been postponed in
definitely. The dispatch reached US too late for
Insertion last week, stating that Gen. s1okLEs had
decided not to begin registration in tisa military
district until Congress- shall have determined more
explicitly who are entitled to be registered. That
BODY having extended the time for the completion
OF this important work until the first OF OCTOBER
and having passed q bill supplementary anu eApla-
natory of the Reconstruction Acts, We presume
thst,the Commanding General will issue another
order at once. by which the various Boards OF Reg
istration. viii be governed.
In this connection we will state thatit has been
ascertainsd there will be ethree Boards for Ander-
SON District, and that they viii visit twenty-one
N -prescincts altogether. These precincts will be
equally, divided between the Boards, and ample
opportunity given for every one entitled to regis
ter their names It is unnecessary, therefore, that
persons desiring to register should visit the Court
House for that purpose, and it might create confu-
sion and delay By large crowds pressing in upon
. the officers at any. point.

eHARADEs, TABLEAUx AND CONCERT.

An advertisement appears in another column,
announcing that an entertainment will be given in
the Court House on tomorrow Thursday even
ing, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to a
charitsble enterprise. We have had glance at
the programme, and can safely promise rare
treat and pleasant evening. Accomplished ladies
are in charge of the affair, and are determined to
succeed in giving satisfaction to the public. The
Philharmonics are to discourse sweet sounds, and
this will prove sure attraction of itself. Piano
music, accompanied by womans gentle voice, will
have an appropriate share of the evening. Sc
lect and capital charades are interspersedr while
the amateur negro delneator of former entertain
ments will give several of his amusing burlesques
end comic songs. Altogether, the occasion will
amply recompense any one for the small outlay
necessary to secure seats. We trust she encour-
agement mertcd will be heartily given, and that
the Court House may be filed to Overlooking to-
morrow night.
P S.-Since the above was putin type, We hove
been requested to- state that the entertainment is
unavoidably postponed, owing to the illness of
some Of the ladies occupying an important part in
the programme Due notice will be given vhen
the entertainment takes place.

GENEROUS DONATION.

The following correspondence, relative to gen.
erous gift for the benefit of the suffering in our
State, will be read with interest. The donor is a
native of Lancaster District, but for many years a
resident of Paris, and at this time occupying an
enviable position among the surgeons of the old
world. In some respects, Dr. SIMS is regarded as
the most distinguished physician now living. His
eminent professional abilities are overshadowed,
however, by the high attributes of an earnest ma
ture, and this simple and unpretendiDg act Of
charity reflects the noble principles by which he ia
actuated:

Trumbun on reconstruction matters, about which
there has been SO much speculation, leaked out to-
day from the Senate Judiciary Committee. 1t is
regarded as heavy blow at radicalism and many
efforts were made to suppress it, but in vain.
Senator Trumbull is said to have striven hard to
keep it from the public, through the fear that it
would damage the Republican party while on the
other hand the President, it is believed, will be
gratifed ut its publication"

paneled in Alabama occurred near Tuskegee on
Tuesday last A negro woman, who was under

They found that she died from congestion Of the

VIEWING THE RoUTE.-The Presidents,
Snperintendents and Engineers of the p. w.
4 B. and Delaware Railroads were viewing
the ground on Friday last, preparatory to
locating the Il. { DID,. railroad line, to con-
meet with the P.,W. Il b. railroad. The line
which most interests the citizens of Elkton
Is that of the old Eastern Shore road grade
which passes directly through the town.
This route was examined in the morning ::
after which the party proceeded to inspect
other points north of the town. If our citi.
zens are wise and will evincc the proper
spirit, the Company, we have no doubt, will
be induced to choose the route direct from
this point. But if property holders manifest
that unwse spirit OF oXtortion in asking
fabulous damages for what would be an ul-
mate advantage, the Company will doubtless
make the point Of connection north Of the
town, and by drawing trade and travel away
from EIkton, decrease even the present price
ofpropcrty here. We sincerely hope that
our property holders will evincc a spirit OF
enterprise commensurate to their interests at
stake in this matter

DENTIsTRY.-It is with pleasure that we
make this statement in reference to DR.. }.

had during the last few weeks a great deal
of dentristy done for us by DR.. r., which
has proved highly satisfactory, we feel it eur
duty to recommend him to the public We
found him gentleman Of. integrity, and
highly accomplished, and a very gentle work
man; so while sitting in his luxurious oper-
ating chair, we felt rs comfortable and mnch
at ease. rs we ever did in onr life. We also
noticed that he had q inH set OF first class
instruments, enabling him to perform his
operations neatly and eXpc'itiously; and
from the obsei vatons we have made while
visiting dental offices in the city, we think
DR.. Registers Office will compare favorably
with any of them.
During one of our visits to his Office, q
lady patient entered, wishing the extraction
Of two teeth, from which she had suffered
untold agonies for several weeks, being ex-
ceedng nervous, and her face being much
swollen and exceeding painful TO the touch.
DR.. Il. recommended the administration of
the "Nitrous OXIDE" or "i.anghng Cas-
She willingly took it, and seemed pleased at
the idea of having them extracted without
pain. The operation lasted about one min
ute and II half. and there never seemed to
be a happier person. when upon coming to;
in answer to her inquiry, she was told that
both Of her teeth were out, she having moi
