The New Orleans Crescent gives the
following clear Statement of the effeci
ofthe suffrage and DISTINGUISHING in
the Reconstruction Bill. We suggest
that it be preserved for reference;
al. AS to qualifications; In gener-
al, all persons are voters and are EN-.
titled to registry, who are male citizens
of the United States, without distinc-
ton of color, o. twenty-one years of
age and upward, and having resided
one year in the State in which they Of
fer to vote.
2. As to disqualifications: All per-
sons are disqualified, who, having been
federal officers or members of State
legislature, or executive orjudicial Of
ficers of any State, and have subse
quently engaged in rebellion against
the United States, or given aid and
comfort to the enemies thereof
8. AS to Interpretation: The dis
qualifications do not apply to simple
clerks, such as postoffice clerks-these
not being government officers within
the meaning of the law, or to employ
ees not receiving their commissions
from the President, or to State admin
istrative officers, such as sheriffs, clerks
of courts, tax collectors, assessors,
ETC., or to the officers of mu-
nicipal, parish or county organizations
none ofthese being executive or ju-
dicial officers.

We invite attention to the proclama-
ton of Gov. Humphreys, of Missis-
sippi, the body Of which viii be found
elsewhere. It is just such a one as
would meet the approval Of Gen. Sher-
idan here, as well as Of all wise and
thoughtful Southern men. He man.
ifests his intention to yield to the re-
quirements of Congress unhesitating-
w, and ct the same time admonishes
the people that until change is made
in accordance with the provisions Of
that law, the officers of the State must
be obeyed as before.-N o. Pic

The Galveston News publishes TIL

The Galveston News publishes the
foregoing with the following COM
ment:
1t will be seen, by the letter of Gen.
Griffin to the Governor, that the mill
tary power intends to make no dis
tinction ofcolor in the appointment of
Registers in the various portions of
the State. We are informed that
wherever colored men can be found in
Texas with the requisite qualifications,
in those counties possessing any con-
siderable portion of this population,
they will be associated with the white
Registers, and work in connection
with them. This seems to- us to be
wholly unobjectionable. If any are
inclined to "revolt" at it, at first sight,
some reflection upon it will convince
them that it ought to be expected, as
following logically and practically
from the enfranchisement Of our col
ored people.

There was quite a stir yesterday on
Carondelet street produced by the
news received by cable dispatch from
Europe, to the effect that affairs had
assumed warlike aspect on the Rhine,
that 5-20's had declined, cotton orders
we're countermanded, and gold had ad-
vanced. Such intelligence could not
but produce a profound sensation in
commercial circles. Nothing of course
very definite was known of the cause
of disturbance, but it would certainly
not surprise any sagacious person if
the disquietude among the populations
on the Rhine, growing out of the rival
claims of France and Prussia, should
break out into open war.-N. o.

Z PUBLIC ScHooLs.-The New Orleans Bee
says:
To oppose public schools at this time is to be
behind the age. There may be good grounds
for opposition to the school system in sparsely
settled parishes; but it would be extremely
selfish in the people of those parishes to oppose
the system in other places where 1t can be
made effective. As well may bachelors in cities
object to the payment of the school tax, because
they have no children to send, or planters in
the high lands refuse to pay their assessment of
the levee tax because their firms are not sub
ject to overflow. The spirit of the age is in fa-
yor Of free public schools. and they have been
thoroughly and satisfactorily tested in Eng
land, France, Germany and in the Northern
States. And besides we may rest assured that
there are to be free public schools in our State,
ond unless we take hold of them and manage
them cur selves, they will be organized for us,
and supplied with a corps Of school marms
from New England. We have nothing against
those worthy persons provided they do not
have ga mission" yet it must be more c0nso-
nant with the feelings of the people TO have
teachers and books Of their own selection.

The following resolutions which
were adopted by meeting of the citi-

ult., set forth as clearly as we have
seen stated in any other form, the
whole duty of the South. 1t will be

should guide the whole in determining
their future course:
From the New Era.
WHEREAS, The object of this meet.
ing has been superseded by the pas
sage of the Supplementary Bill by
Congress, relieving the people from
taking any initiatory steps in the mat
ter Demonstration, by placing the
whole scheme in military hands. The
only question of difficulty in the matter
is this: Shall all those who do not
approve of the reconstruction act, he
still and do nothing and allow those
only who do approve Of it, white and
black, to form new State Constitu-
ton; or all shall all who are permitted
by Congress to take part in the Con-
gressional reconstruction, bear their |
share in that important matter2 The
lights before us seem plainly to die
tate the latter policy; Therefore be it
Resolved, /. That we deem it to
be the duty of all citizens who are not
prescribed, to register and become
voters, and take part in the election
which is to decide whether a conven-
ion is to be held or not, when called
lpon to do so by the military author
ties.
Resolved, Cd. That in the mean
lime, it is the duty ofall good citizens
o devote their whole time and ener-
yies to the production Of the necessa-

ions, endeavor to promote the gen
'ral good, and let politics alone, as the
