By reference to the Legislative pro-
ceedings, twill be seen that resolutions
have been introduced in the House o.
Representatives, looking to an inquiry
into the doings of Burbr dge when in
command of Kentucky. The proposed
investigation should be instituted 1t il
due the memory of brave and noble men
who fell victims to the murderous and
Bnsoldierly policy Of the Kentucky
Haynau, that his crimes should be held
up 10 the execration of mankind Where
the cold-blooded atrocities perpetrated
by Burbfidge under color of military au.
tbority are known, his name is the
synonym of infamy. Let the investiga.
ton be held, and the brand of Cain be

suppose, be has been stirring around
loosely with "beef on the brain" and has
purchased and gathered together fine
drove of fat beeves for market. We look
upon him as perfect benefactor, in that
his object is to bring down the price of
stock, and considering the high prices
which are demanded for the article by
our retail beef merchants, our "citizen"
is entitled to the eminent gratitude of
this much abused community. High IN
the hearts of his countrymen shall he be
esteemed, and even more distinguished

off the bridge"

REe1srgR.-There is one thing that we
desire to call the attention Of all our read
ers to. and that is, that the mere act of
avaiing themselves of the privilege of reg
istration does not commit them to an en-
dorsement Of the reconstruction Acts, or to
voting for convention. 1t is simply an
act of Qualification, comforting upon them
the right to vote as they please on the ques.
tions to issue. They should bear in mind
that, having registered, they can vote for or
against a convention, can sslect their men
to represent them in that body, and can
vote to adopt or reject the constitution 1t
may submit for their approval.
This is an important point for those quail
fed to consider. The: mere registration of
their names does not commit them one way
or the other, and, indeed, if they choose,
they may refuse to vote at all. But, by
registering, they will have secured that op-
ton, whereas the neglect to do so precludes
them from exercising their judgment at the
ballot-box Of either men or measures, and
disquali6es them from voting for or against
either, so long as. these laws are in force:
Register, then, if you do not 60 near the
ballot-box, and thus preserve to yourselves
the highest privilege conferred upon the
citizen.-Columbia Phoenix.
