REGISTRATION,

We were in error when we stated in last
week issue that "all those who wish to vote
at the coming election must be registered
anew" Those whose names appear upon
the Great Register of last year, provided
they have not changed their residence in the
interim, are not required to go through the
operation the second time. But voters must
bear in mind that the fact of their names be-
ing upon the Great Register does not enttle
them to vote unless they are enrolled upon
the poll lists of their respective precincts or
election districts. Many people are laboring
under the impression that because their
names were placed upon the poll list last
year, they are enrolled for all time to come.
This is mistake. The old poll lists can
only be used by order of the Board of Super
visors, who are empowered to authorize
them to be corrected by adding new names
and striking out those who have left their
respective districts, The Clerk of the Board
of Election has power to enter upon the poll
lists all persons whom he knows to be resi-
dents Of his district and entitled to ENROLL
ment thereon, subject, however, to the decis-
ion of a majority of the Board. There are
continual changes of residence being made.
and voters should bear in mind that it is
necessary for them to procure certificates
from the last place where they were enrolled,
and present them to the Clerk of the Board
of Election in the precinct where they wish
to exercise the franchise. The principal
changes which the amendments to the Reg
istry law, passed last session, have effected,
are as follows: County Judges are relieved
from any duties under the Act. Naturalized
citizens may prove their residence in the
United States five years, and in this State
six months, by one registered citizen. and
nre not required to produce copy of their
certificate within two years. Assessors and
their deputies have the same power to reg
lister all voters as the County Clerk. Sec
tion is repealed. School elections are ex-
empt from the provisions of the Act.
Union men should bestir themselves in
this matter and see that not only their own
names. but those of their loyal acquaintan-
ces are placed upon the poll lists of their re-
spective districts. Do not trust to the pos
sibility of the Clerks putting down your
name on the list. Attend to the matter
yourself. Carelessness in this respect, at
time like this. is a crime. Union men !
see to it that you are not debarred from
casting vote for Grant and Colfax in No
vember next.

During the year 500, an old soldier, named
Lemuel Owens, was discharged from the ar
senal in this city, owing to some very abrupt
reply he gave to seli-appointed committee
who were sounding him upon his politics.
As Owens had served twenty-six years in the
regular army, and had wound up his term of
service on the Peninsula, under Mcclellan,
he would allow no man to question his right
to vote, and boosted, too, that he had served
in the 4th infantry under Grant, when the
renowned eheitain was but lieutenant.
He told the committee he would 90 and
see Gen Grant himself about the matter
They jokingly replied Do so, old fellow ),
he'll make il all right" Gen. Grant was
temporarily living at Twentieth and Chest
nut streets, in this city, and the veteran SOL
der trudged up with his story to the Gener-
ais house. He stepped up, rang the bell,
and went into the entry hall. When the SER
want appeared and saw an old, sunburned,
poorly dressed man, he very promptly asked,
" What do you want? ?"
reply.
The Generals engaged aud cannot be
seen. Have you got eard?"
Just at this moment little girl appeared,
and old Owens said toher, Sis, run up stairs
and tell your pap an old It'll infantry man
wants TO see him"
\ message soon came down for the old SOL
der to come in, when he was ushered into
the presence of General Grant He shook
him by the hand and said, General, don't
you know mel" The General replied that
he had seen so many people of late that it
was hard to remember them ALL Owens told
him when he served under him, and that he
had been discharged from his work, and that
he had lost his eldest son from disease in the
war, and his family had nothing to depend
upon but his labor. Grant patiently listened
to the old soldiers story, aud, picking up
his pen, wrote a few lines to the effect that
Owens should have work as long as he want
ed it,
The old man was not long in reaching his
former field of labor armed with the tormid-
able order and when he presented it, with
the signature of the commander-n-chief at
tached, it created much surprise, and the vet
eran soldier was graeiously acknowledged as
entitled thenceforth to respectful considera-
ton Philadelphia Bulletin.

LADIES SHOULD READ NEwsPAPERs.-Itis
a great mistake in female education to keep a
young lady's time and attention devoted to
the fashionable literature of the day. If you
would qualify her for conversation, you must
give her something to talk-give her educa-
ton with this actual world with its transpi-
ring evcnts-urge her to read the newspapers
and become familiar with the present eharac-
ter and improvements of our trade. History
is of some Importance, but the past world is
dead, and we have nothing to do with it.
Our thoughts and our concerns should be for
the present world-to know what il is, and to
improve the condition of it. Let us have an
intelligent opinion, and be able to sustain
conversation concerning the mental, moral, po-
ltical and religious improvements of our
times--see that each others feelings, and
thoughts, and actions are pure and true then
will our life be such. The wide pastures are
but separate spires of grass--the sheeted
bloom of the prairies but isolated flowers.

WHEREAS, In the month of July, Ammo
Domini, 1861, in accepting the condition of
civil war which was brought by instruction
and rebellion in several Of the United States
which constitute the United States, the two
Houses Of Congress did solemnly declare that
war was not wagcd on the part Of the govern
ment in any spirit of oppression, nor for any
purpose Of oyerthrowing or interfering with
the rights or established institutions Of the
States, but only to defend and maintain the
supremacy Of the constitution Of the United
States, and to preserve the Union with all the
dignity, equality and rights of the several
States unimpared and that 80 soon as those
objects should be accomplished the war on
the part Of the government should cease
AMI whereaS, the President Of the United
States has, heretofore, in the spirit of that
declaration, and with the view of securing for
it the ultimate aud complete effect set forth
IN the several proclamations Offering amnesty
and pardon to persons who had been or were
concerned in the alore-named rebellion. which
