TIE EXTENSION OF THE CRY LIMIrs.-The
order of Major Corbin extending the limits OF
Ward No. to the Six Mile House pro duced
some confusion, and did little good. 1t was
intended to apply only to the Presidential
Registration, as the law distinctly states that
only those residing within the corporate limits
of the city can vote at municipal election.
This fact was not generally understood, and
the wording Of the order added to the per-
plexity. At Ward No. 8 the managers refused
to allow any one to register who lived between
the city limits and the Six Mile House, cast OF
Meeting-street. The managers of Ward No. z
had received no instructions to extend their
Jurisdiction, and were equally firm in their re-
fusal. The negroes who lived on the farms on
the east side of Meeting-street road were per-
fectly bewildered, and passed from the Marion
Engine House to that in Columbus-street, and
back again several times, vainly endeaVoring
to have their names handed to posterity as
registered voters.
