The most sensible proposition we
have seen for long timo is that of
the Lexington Miss. J Advertiser, to
start little factory with capital
of $500. 1t says it is folly to wait
until $4,000 or 500, 900 can be got
it may never be gathered: Itsays:
"a factory Costing the insigniti-
cant amount we have named) can
card all tho wool in the county, make
towels and domostics to supply three
times our population, and with n gin
attached, could gin all the gleanings
Of the great staple at figure that
would Immediately supercede horse
power. We have in our community
n gentleman ofrocognized genius, of
an attentive turn of mind, well pos
ted in mechanics and machinery,
who, for n moderate compensation,
could be induced to take charge OF
the business of such a factory, aud
conduct it to the grandest results
possible to be attained
When our Hazelhurst friends n
year or too ago were trying to start
a factory, and stopped short because
the sum of 100000 could not be
raised, we told them to have q dog
power factory ifthey could get no
other. Indeed, every 5000 acres of
cultivated land should have its own
gin and cotton factory combined,
and it would De all the better if the
farmers daughters should do the

REGISTRATION IN DALLAs.-The Board OF
Registrars for Dallas County convened at
the Court House on last Monday and con
tinued in session for the purpose of regis
tering or rejecting applicants until two O.
clock yesterday. The Board was organized
consisting of Jesse Asbcrry, President, Mel
vim Wade, (colored, ami E. b. Spillmnn,
Assistant Registers, and Ben. Long, Clerk.
Mr.. Spillman, our District Clerk, was pla-
ced on the Board to fill the vacancy created
by the resignation of Mr.. Sam. s. Jones, and
Ben. Long was appointed rs clerk to fill the
vacancy created by the resignation of Sam
Seaton. During the session of the Board,
$50 whites and % colored were registered,
and q whites were rejected. The Board is
now engaged in striking from the list of
registered voters the names ofall such per.
sons as, in their opinion, were improperly
registered, and should the Board apply the
Same test to those already registered that
was applied to those who applied for regis
tration during thoir present session very
large number of names will he stricken off.
During the recent session of the Board,
Mr.. Asberry, the President, did not only
reject those whe were denied registration
under the provisions of what was termed
the "secret instructions" distributed from
ad-Quarters Of the 9th Military District
last Spring, bnt, in ad lition to the quest
lions contained in said instruc .ions, in or
der to deny white men the privilege of reg
istration, propounded to applicants the fol-
lowing questions care you in favor of ne
gro suffrage?" "Will you vote for the Con-
vention" To answer either OF these aues-
tions in the negative was held by MAORI
ty of the Board asgood grounds for the re-
lection Of the applicant for regi.ration.-
Applicants who had never taken the am.
necty oath, ifin favor of negro suffrage and
the Convention, were registered; il oppo-
sed TO either Of these propositions they we're
rejected because they had not taken the
amnesty oath.
We are informed that Mr.. Spillman did
al he could TO procure a fair registration
according TO the letter and spirit of the Re.
acts Of Congress, but in this
ne was over ruled by a majority Of the
Board; the President Mr.. Asberry had
his own way; he appcard 10 be

Many citizens who visited Dallas for the
IMPOSE Of Registering, were declared by
