The Registration of Legal Voters
in each Election District OF our
State which embraces any part OF a
CITY or of an incorporated Village
is resumed this morning, and Will
be concluded in all Village Dis
tricts this evening, and in this and
all the other cities of the State to-
morrow Saturday. We exhort
every honest citizen to watch the
Registry of his District, and object
to the registration of any person
who is not known to be legal
voter, and then prepare to follow
up this objection by challenge and
question at the polls.
The argument is closed; the
popular verdict in favor of Grant
and Colfax is overwhelming; all
that remains is to take care that
this verdict be not falsitied
by fraudulent votes. Patriots !!
Republicans ! he entreated to do
your whole duty!

a MAN 1T YEARS OLD.-Jacob
Fernance, known for the last eighty
years by the name of cold Peno," is
atill living with Mr.. Mulky, in this
city. Too old to continue in his old
business of trapping in the Western
mountains, he has for the last thirty
years been living with Mr.. Mulky,
and is well cared for. "Old Peno" is
now lit years old. He was an old
man when the battle of New Orleans
was fought, at which time he did
duty under General Jackson. This
old man still shows considerable
activity, both physical and mental;
takes great interest in the different
improvements going on in and about
the city, and averages n trip once
week to the Kansas City Bridge
Works, which takes him about three
quarters of day to perform. When
about home he occupies most of his
time, in the spring and summer, il.
attending to his garden. Torrance
was born in Canada, and emigrated
from that country South when ho was
about thirty years of age.

MISUNDERSTANDING Got
to Lcuve.o

Tbs results of the late elections,
for all practical purposes, in North
and South Carolina, Georgia and
Louisiana, appear, after all, to be
pretty thoroughly radical. The De-
mocrats here and there are putting
in complaints of frauds, and investi-
cations will probably follow in vari-,
GUS districts; but, doubtless, they
will end in smoke. The simple truth
is, that the outside Southern States
are in that condition of political
decentralization which may be pro-
nounced Southern anarchy. The
new organization of parties, from
Virginia to Texas, on the dividing
line OF race and color, has brought
about state of things which has
heen art!J described by q philoso-
phical African in these suggestive
words: ''De fac is, we's beginnih' to
tink dero is too many kinds of people
down yer. Dere is de whites an de
blacks an de Yankees. OATS too
many to git along we'll, an some
body's got to leave" This is the
pervading idea of Southern society
to-day-''somebody's got to leave;"
and this is the idea which underlies
all the political movements on both
sides, in the States concerned directly
in this business of reconstruction,
and it is at the bottom of all these
secret Southern political associations,
such as the Loyal Leagues and Ku
Klux Klans. The existing law and
order of the South is simply a sus-
pension of hostilities between the
whites and blacks in the presence of
the United States army. The whites,
chatting under the astounding inno-
vations of negro equality and uni
versal negro suffrage and white dis
Embellishments, are not in the mood
for anything like determination and
the ignorant blacks, prcsuming upon
their strength Mt the polls and the
protection of Congress. and full of
false notions of equality, are ready
for anything in the prosecution of
this terribly significant idea, that
"somebody's got to leave" The So
luton of this problem will not, per-
haps, appear till after the restoration
of the States concerned to both
houses of Congress, as reconstructed
under the radical programme. Then,
under the belief that oil the Southern
troubles are over, there will doubt
less be considerable movement in
the tide of Northern emigration,
white and black, from the West to
the South, and then we may expect
to see q considerable selling out and
exodus of Southern white land-hold-
crs for some other country; for under
negro supremacy, if established on
the restoration of these States, with
Che army still on hand to enforce it,
the Southern whites, in numerous
moving detachments, will settle tho
question that somebody's got to
leave" Will the South. then, be-
come an African paradise or pande-
monium, under this policy of radical
reconstruction? From present ap-
pearances, it will not be all inviting
region for settlement to any white
man who is not prepared for negro
supremacy in tho State and negro
equality in the family; but sit is
long lane that has no turn"

Mr.. EDITOR: Who will be the next
President? This is grave question
the most important political pro-
blem that has presented itself before
the American sovereignty since the
days of Washington; and upon their
choice depends the maintenance or
destruction Of this mammoth republic,
built up by the spirits of '7G. The
philosophers stone converts base
metal into gold. A political alchy-
mist may work like magical results,
and change a corrupt Congress to
national honesty and intitutoral
purity. This is the age of mystery.
He may work out miracle. The Go
vernment ship is now traversing the
political waters amidst n terrific
storm of mountain tide, and nothing
but the intervention of n constitu-
tional alchymist can save it from i'm
pending ruin. She is infested with
Congressional pirates and mutineers.
They have nailed the commander to
the mast, pulled down the flag, and in
the confusion have lost the constitu-
tional chart and compass, and are float
ing with the uncomfortable waves of
maniacal and party frenzy. The whole
crew are wild with insubordination,
and every passenger feels himself in
danger from the vertical motion that
indicates fearful future. Will those
who stand upon the constitutional
shore, with the chart of rescue before
them, fold their arms with cold in
difference to witness the national ship,
with her cargo of liberty, the be-
quest of Washington, a comm on
inheritance, encircled within the
whirlpool of madness, to be swal-
lowed in its vortex, with all aboard,
within the hearing of the shrieks
and distressing lamentations for
help, help? Surely not. Then send
them commodore, not because he is
from the North, the South, the East
or the West, but one who under
stands the national sea and navigates
her waters with the constitutional
compass in one hand and the chart
in the other He would inoculate ~
fresh hope that now fingers in de-
spair; he would restore Il distracted
crew to harmony; he would anchor
the vessel in the bay of safety, and
land upon the shores of equity and
replant the national flag. with her
stars and stripes, to wave once more
triumphantly over the monument
hills of Washington, in the resplen-
dency of its original purity, with her
widespread eagle wings extending
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, fan
ming q land of sunshine and happi-
ness, under the shade of content
ment. This political Messiah is yet
behind the veil; uncover him and
bring him forth, that inosculating
shouts of Joy may then echo from
one end of the content to the other,
without latitude or longitude-James

Congress could not pass any act
which would tend more to the restora-
ton of an era of good feeling between
the North and the South, than would
one relieving all persons in the
Southern States from the obligation
to take the iron-clad oath upon being
inductcd into Office. It is IN unwise
requirement. It breeds discomfort
and spirit of hostility against the
Government which thus seeks &c
fottcr the consciences of freemen.
1t Is an unconstitutional oath, and
cannot, therefore, be honorably de-
mahded of men who are also sworn
to support the Constitution. So far
rs it touches what is to be done here
after by the officer, it is proper and
Just. But in requiring man to
swear that he has not heretofore done
sUch and such thing, it in effect
violates the provision of the Consti-
tuition against &c post .fucto laws; for
exclusion from Office is in the nature
of q punishment for crime, and as
the law requiring this oath was pass
ed after the Southern people had
gone into rebellion, it is in fact an &c
post facto aw.-Richmond Dispatch.

to it. 1t takes out, rs easily rs n

for use. [ strongly recommend it to
every houSe-keeper III the city and

the sole manufacturer of this useful

cents is SO moderate that not even

can afford to do without one of them.
