It is the obvious duty of every citizen
to make application for registration and

unwise and an abandonment of right

register. Many persons hearing Of

forming this duty. This is all wrong.

be controlled by Bakers instructions.
and registered citizens according to
their own views of the law. They looked
to the constitution and the law rather
than to Bakers arbitrary and unauthor-
lied regulations. This is obviously their
sworn duty. They are judges who must
decide according to their understand
ing, Their consciences, not Bakers,
must bear the responsibility Of any
wrong or injustice that may be done the
citizen by their decision. There were
others, however, who persisted in con-
forming to Bakers mandates, and thus
violated the law. Baker cannot stand
between them and the law when they
are held to q responsibility for an ille-
gal decision. Tn all such cases the par

The Election Proclamation.


We perceive that the proclama-
ton of Governor Warmoth order
ing an election for members of
Congress in this State, is still con-
tinued in the official journal. as''
We hoped that the obvious ille-
galty of this proclamation arose
from an oversight, and would be
promptly corrected. It has not
been changed, and we are again
compelled to remind Gov. War
moth that the law still governs in
this State, and that he cannot alter
or amend the same proclamation.
Under these laws no election of
members of Congress is provided
for which can be held on the Sd of
November, but that the next regu-
lar election takes place in Novem-
Der, 1869. .1 .1*or.'"@ ..@ 1E
Secondly, the special election to
FL the vacancy created by the
death of Col. Mann may be or
dered by the Governor, but it must
be for that vacancy, and not for
quite q different district from that
which Col, M. represented, and in
which the vacancy occurred. Half
Of the voters in the district indica-
ted in Warmoth's proclamation
have already a representation in
Congress. They cannot have two.
They cannot vote for Mann's sue
cessor after having a}seady voted
for Newsham and Vidal. OF course
no man elected in this manner will
be admitted to a seat in the House
of Representatives. He might re-
ceive a large majority In the dis
trict represented by Mann, and be
defeated by the votes Of the par
ishes which are already represented
By Vidal and Newsham. Could a
person thus elected set up the
slightest pretension to be the sue
cess6r of Col. Mann?

THE KNIGHTLY -Lippincotti
Magazine for February contains an article OF
the Christian Commission, in which many
touching stories are told. Here is one which
as an instance of generous self-denial, is Ger
tainly unsurpassed by Sidney's famous de-
claration, Thy necessity is greater than
mine -
| Two Of US picked up man in our arms to
carry him off the field. A shell had struck
him in the mouth, leaving an awful wound
which was bleeding profusely. offered him
drink from my canteen. The first sensa-
ton after wound is we'll known to be of in
tense thirst. Yet the soldier refused the
proffered draught. asked him why. "My
mouths all bloody, sir. and it might make
the canteen bad for the Others" He was
only private" rough and dusty with the
battle, but the answer was one which Sir
Phillip Sidney or the Chevalier Bayard, sans
peur ct sans reproche. had not equalled when
they gave utterance to the words which have
made their names immortal.
The following is told BY delegate at Mis-
sion Ridge:
We met four soldiers bearing back a COM
rade on a blanket. They halted and laid
down their burden, asking if we would see
whether the color sergeant was badly wound
ed. knelt by him and said, Sergeant.
where did they hit you :" "Nost up the
ridge, sir" Il mean, sergeant, where did
the ball strike you :" "Within twenty yards
of the top-almost up" No, no, sergeant,
think Of yourself moment; tell me where
you are wounded" And then throwing back
the blanket, found his upper arm and Shout
der mashed and manged with shell. Turn
ing his eye to look for the first time on his
wound, the sergeant said, "That is what did
it. was hugging the standard to my blouse
and making for the top. l was almost up,
when that ugly shell knocked me over. If
they had let me alone little longer-two
minutes longer-I should have planted the
colors on the top. Almost up; almost UP"
We could not get the dying color bearers
attention to himself. The fight and the flag
held all his thoughts; and while his eye was
growing heavy in death, with flushed face
be was repeating. almost up; almost up"
The brigade to which he belonged had carried
the ridge, and his own regiment, rallying I'M
der the colors which had dropped from his
arm, was shouting the victory for
which he had given his young life, but Of
which he was dying without the sight.
