cJTJzEySi DO yOrR DrTY!

IL is now established, by ailidavits issued in
the regular course Of judicial procedure, that
an enormous number of fraudulent Naturaliza-
ton Certificates have been issued in our City,
Philadelphia, and all over the country. These
Certificates have been issued with the expecta-
ton and desire that the holders shall vote, at
least once each. for seymour Hoffman * Co.,
at the impending election.
This conspiracy against the Constitution and
the rights of every honest voter must bc de-
feated. Aud the first step to this end is vigil
apoe at the Registries neTf Friday and Saiw-
day.
Patriotic citizens we cntrcat you to give
| those days TO your country Watch the Regis
tries in every district! Let none of these
bogus voters register save in spite of your
strenuous objection. Thousands hold certf-
Gates who never de the requisite proofs nor
took the requisite oaths. and who knor the
facts. Many OF these will not register if OBJ
jected TO and sharply questioned. You have n
perfect right TO attend the registry of your
district to see that the laws are obeyed. You
can aid in keeping the names of Illegal voters
off the registers if you will. Just resolve now
that you will do SO, and ask your honest
neighbOrs to help you,
A great many who are not legal voters will
be registered notwithstanding. FOilOD them
up' Make provision in advance for an early
copy of the registry of your district Hold n
district meeting Mt the earliest moment to
scrutnize it. and mark the names OF all who
are known not TO be- or who probably are not
legal voters Have ample provision made for
challengers. well backed. at every poll. Let no
man vote illegally until after ho shall have
committed ut least II dozen periuries And. if
he persists in 80 voting, follow him up until
hc is securely lodged in the State Prison
Registration is simple notice that the person
registered claims to DO legal voter. IL proves
that, and nothing more. In every doubtful
case, set on foot a scrutiny of the grounds of
that claim. IL you do your whole duty, not
quarter Of those who have had Naturalization
Certificates handed them will dare To vote there
on Hitherto, it has been yOur laxity that has
encouraged and given impunty to ballot-box
stuflng.

Disturbances have broken out in Gretna and
CarrOltOn, suburbs opposite aud above New
Orleans. They began with mob which broke
into the Carrolton Jail and hung two negro
prisoners. Fires, further murder of negroes,
and-at 8 o'clock last night-the effort to drive
the Metropolitan Police from the field are the
later features. The Rebel newspapers announce
that the long-impendng conflict seems about
to begin. Gen. ROsseau has called for more
troops This is well but we trust lcss the
troops in Rosseau's hands than the ballots now
in the hands of the Nation, for preserving the
peace in Louisiana aud throughout the South.

New-York tribune., 1868-10-24

At last we havc-barely ten days before the
election whose approach has manifestly ex-
torted 1.-THE first word from the White Dem
ocrats of the South, expressing disapproval OF
the carnival of murder which, under the stinl-
illus of Frank Blair and the Democratic plat
form, and by the protecting favor of Mr.. John
sons Administration, has filled the South with
terror and blood. We have small graft
tude for it now month ago it would have
been most welcome now the Nation is about
to interfere, and by the election of Grant take
effectual measures to keep tic peace The
South Carolina Committee is as unfortunate IN
it's tardy action now as it was i'll its late dis
c0very that it was in favor of negro suffrage
or as Wade Hampton WAS in his late explana-
ton that he only meant to claim the rcyolu-
tionary plank of the Democratic platform in a
Pickwickan sense.
New-York tribune., 1868-10-24

The Tammany Hall Democracy having man
ufactured twenty thousand fraudulent naturall-
zation papers, and sOwn them broadcast through
out the city, till every Alderman's pockets are
stuffed with them, and every porter-house
keeps the signed blanks ready for delivery,
have now, it is said prepared twenty thousand
blank mandamuses to compel the Republican
Inspectors of Election to register without IN
quiry every holder of one of these papers. IN
deed, correspondent yesterday intlmatcd that
to Fsave time these blank mandamuses are
already signed by one of the Judges, and de-
lvered to lawyer for use. Now, 1t Is just
as certain that no Court can legally, by man
damus, direct an Inspector of Election hoo
he shall act rs it is that our Cardoz0s anu
Barnards are bold enough to attempt to do
lust this thing. Ii Board Of Registry absO-
lutely refuses to act at all, the Court may
probably direct them to act in some way, but
cannot tell them how they shall act. That is
n matter intrusted to their discretion. IL they
err in the application of the law, their decision,
like that of any inferior tribunal, may be
reviewed OH certiOraT. Such we understand
to be the uudOubted law; but if the exigcncies of
Tammany Hall require the law to be overridden,
its Judges will have no hesitation in doing it.
We beg however, TO assure these gentlemen
that the Republicans of this city do not mean
that any names shall be put Oh the Registry,
unless, in the language of the la&. they are
satisfied that they have the right to be there,
and that they mean to take all proper means
to satisfy themselves. The law expressly re-
quires the concurrence of these Inspectors to
put any name on the Registry; and if the
Courts undertake, illegally to compel an In
spcctor to put name on the Registry, when
he is not satisfied" the Inspector will be pro-
tfcted in q refusal so to act by the best legal
talent in the city. Moreover, if the courts
persist in the course indicated, the rem-
edy is in the hands of the Inspectors them
selves. Any InspectOrl on whom man
damus may be served can at once resign, and
his Republican colleague should join him. Such
a course would be nothing more than what his
sclf-respcct would require. He has sworn to
perform his duty, and his duty and the law both
require him to be Satisfied" Of the right OF
the applicant to be registered, while the Court
proposes to order him to register man whom
he does not believe entitled to vote. The
Police Commissioners alone have power to fill the
vacancies caused by such designations, and until
the vacancies are filled registration must absO-
lutely stop. The Police Commissioners will,
of course do all that they can to fill the va
cancies speedily, but we imagine that if the
Judges propose to interfere arbitrarily with the
discretion of the Inspectors it will be very diff
cult TO find persons at short notice to fill their
places. Our Democratic friends may therefore
find that their petard will hoist themselves,
and that their mandamus will result in an en-
tire stoppage of registration.

Our railroads are dangerous enough, but the
Sound steamers are good deal worse, if wc
may judge from the particulars of the collision
near New-IIaven, given i'll another column.
That the passengers of one vessel at least
were not sent to the bottom, is clearly 40
fault of some of the officers. Precisely who
the guilty parties are we should be glad to
see court of justice determine; but mean
time We call attention 10 the remark of an
outside captain. that these rival boats were
quite in the habit of neglecting one another'S
signals, aud observe that such an accident
could not occur without the gravest crim-
nality somewhere.

We have by Cable q full account of the
banquet given on Thursday night, at Liver
pool, to Reverdy Johnson Among the celebr-
ties present were Lord Stanley and Mr.. Glad
stone. Mr.. johnson, rs usual, spoke OF the
everlasting peace that should exist between
England and the United States, and that
should not be disturbed by any past differ
cnces. There is not the TCmOtest reference IN
his speech to the immense losses which America
has suffered i'll the late war; Mr.. johnson. in
fact seems to think that England had been
offended by America, and that it is she, and
not the United States that must be appcased,
He knew, he said that the wisdom, sense and
patriotism of the people of Liverpool would
cause them to forget tho late past He went
even further than at Sheffield. He grasped
the hand OF Mr.. Laird the builder of the Ala
bama, shook It cordially, aud tho two held
each other by the hand while exchang-
ing some words. This fact will be
read with thrill of Indignation in all
the loyal States of the Union. There is no in
dioation whatever that men like Laird, Roe
buck, and Lord Wharncliiic have in the le' st
changed their sentiments toward our people
and our institutions. On the contrary, every
thing indicates that any new rebellion In the
United States would at once enlist their most
ardout sympathy and most valuable aid. IL Is
unworthy of an American Minister to appear
in public as the intimate friend of the worst
and most implacable enemies of his country.

The disturbances in Cuba appear to be more
serious than the Cable dispatches have thus
far represented them. The troops we are told
this morning, are prevented by heavy rains
from pursuing the insurgents as swiftly as
desired In the neghborhood of Holguin the
insurgents are committing depredations. Re-
Gently, Ia Havana, q proclamation of Revo-
lutionary Committee has been published, call

proclamations of this kind cannot fail to stim-
ulate the efforts made by the native party for

Gov Seymour's fate was sealed before; but

SON HAS COME OUT FOR HIM! That is enough
to kill the livest man in the country, to say
nothing of this Utica body of death. Mr.. John

stump, and thinks tho circumstances require it.
We agree with him. But We venture to hint
that something more even than this heroic

SEYMOUR'S PETITION.

Gov. Seymour pleads the baby act. He begs
votes for President on the assumption that he
could MT do much harm in the White House if
he tried Congress will be against him; SO he
could MT carry out the Blair Hampton pro-
gramme if he were TO attempt it.
But he could do HARM We call Andrew John
son to witness. That ungrateful apostate has
done immense harm, with Congress much more
heavily adverse to him than Seymour, if elected
would find the XLlld. He has had power to
retard and embarrass the progress of Recon
struction. Three States are still out of Con-
gress, when all would have been long since IN
place but for Johnson's treachery. Georgia re-
Gently took the back track, and ostracized her
loyal Blacks under tho joint impulse of John
sons delinquency and Seymours anticipated pa
tronage of Rebel persecution. AT least two
thousand loyal men lie cold in death who would
not have been murdered il Andrew Johnson,
HOratio Seymour, or some other one Of their
school. had not been President of the United
States. Seymour's plea is Sophistical. 1t ignores
the most palpable facts. 1t shuts its eyes to
the recent history and present condition of the
South Because the uprising OF the People has
already precluded his doing, If President, all
the harm he might otherwise have chosen or
been driven on TO do, he argues that he cannot
do any. Abundant facts cOnfute him.

has not done its perfect work. We answer
