LouIslASA.-Ws copy a. follows
fron a special Washington dispatch
to the ST.. Louis Republican;
An efor, IN bang made to get
Gen. Hancock to reopen the registry
in Louisiana. 1t appears that usdsr
the impression that, by not register.
ing or not votiag. they could defeat
the reconstruction Of the State, :
large nurabsr Of whites declined 10
register. The present Congress,
however, proposes 70 enact that .
majority Of the votss cast shall b
sufhcient for the ratification OF the
reconstruction Of the constitution.
aud nothing eau b accomplished,
therefore. by staying away from the
polls. The conservatives wish to vet
the registry rsopsnsd 10 allow he
registration Of those who stayed away
when the books wore opened. Prs:.
ident johnson, through his fr;ssds,
has made the request Of Ges. Han.
cock, but the General hes shus far
given no indication Of conpliaaes.
