EDITOR ARGUS We discover, in the
Union of this morning, an article in relation
to the late action of the registry board, IN
which that paper manifests its usual lack OF
truth, and exhibits its usual partizan bitter
ness Of feeling in misrepresenting the regis
try board, merely because one OF its party
was refused the registration of his name, be.
cause, in the opinion Of the board, he lost
his residence by removing out OF the state {;
he not having a permanent, actual, bona
fie residence in this state, for one year pre-
vous to the Sd Of November, such as the
law requires, and which law the registrars
are sworn to be governed by in making out
the registry. We, the undersigned, who
we're the individuals aimed at in that article
would only say that we are governed by the
law, and not by the little bantam editors Of

same, as the public will be very much inter

NAV have made in reference to his toohng
and deceiving them about d promised per
formance to be given in this city. And,
moreover, several of the public are anxious
10 know of his present whereabouts, inter
ested in his health and prosperity doubt
less. We have heard many anxious lnqul.
ries as to where he could be found or reach
ed by letter, which testiGes to the eStm"'
ton in which he is held by the many friends
he has made on his recent tour.
1t is worth our while to be mag luminous
as we have made compulsory collection for
the little contingency left behind him at the
ARGUS Office We learn, moreover, that be-
fore he became an impressarto, he was a
stalwart knight of the anvil and forge, but
like Handels Harmonious Blacksmith he
was luved from the ringing hammers beat
