Registration Notices.

By notices elsewhere, it will be seen that
the Registrars will sit on Monday, Tuesday
and Wednesday, the 21st, 22nd and 23rd Of
this month, (September,) for the registration
of voters in their respective districts. 1t will
be seen that no notices are given for the 4th
(Allens Fresh) and the 7th Pomonkey Dis
tricts. This was occasioned by the failure oil
the Registrars for those districts to qualify
within the twenty days, the period allowed
by law for qualification. In the case of tho
first named party the name was enormously
given, and in the latter the party was pre-
vented by sickness, hence the failure of these
gentlemen to qualify as required by law
We have very little doubt that both the gen.
tlemen above referred to, will be re-appointed
in short time and an opportunity be given
the citizens to register in time for the ap-
preaching election. 1t is important that al
who are entitled should register. Rcmem-
Der the days and fail not to appear before the
Registrar and qualify.

of this kindly feeling on the part Of the

credit the tales of horror and bloodshed

Gen. LEE and his associate is an appeal to
truth which the most obdurate can hardly
in his mind to deny, and in it all unbiased
and unprejudiced minds will find the strong
est and most undeniable pledges Of reconcia-

Gen. RosEcRANs has shown himself patriot
and friend to his whole country, and merits
the gratitude of all who seek once more to
enjoy the blessings of a peaceful and unin-
terrupted administration of the Constitution
and Laws as they existed in their primal pu-
rity. May the labors of these pure and no
BILE minded patriots meet with their just re-
ward We commend this correspondence to
