a Modest Mexican

A muniticent Mexican who declines
to give his name and station to the
newspapers and glory, has sent silver
coffee pot to the President. What office
be is after is known, We presume, only
to tho President. The same bountiful
benefaelor sends SEWARD "a little beii,s =
than which more appropriate present
could hardly be imagined. Mrs. LIN
coin is also remembered. Her share of
the spoils is a silver card-basket. Doubt
less the pawn. brokers will soon have it
on exhibition. From the looseness with
which he disposes of his plunder, one
could almost suppose the giver to be
some hero of the safe and pantry, who
had won his epaulets by chivalrous
achievements among Southern plate
chests during "the late unpleasantness."

tn. National "Cs.p Meeting.

The great Methodist Episcopal Camp
Meeting commenced at Round Lake,
Saratoga county, New York, on Tuesday
last, and on the next day it is estimated
that Is, 900 people were on the ground.
A letter says:
"The camp. ground, occupying forty
acres. is admirably located in the midst
of a dense forest of hemlock and beech,
from which all underbrush is carefully
removed. The avenues and streets are
all plainly designated by having their
respective names permanently attached
to the trees at every angle of the
thoroughfares, and large lamps on sub
stantial posts render the grounds light
at night. At the head of the main en-
trance to the camp Is large square
with Ia fountain in the centre, and the
postoffice and other public institutions
around it, including telegraph office.
The stand is fine structure with seats
rising one behind another, and accom-
modating about 200 clergymen. The
cornices are handsomely ornamented in
scroll work, and bear Inscriptions from
the Bible; and on the apex of the roof a
large bell is suspended to announce the
hours of public worship. There are
seats for about $500, but a congregation
of at least 5000 can be comfortably ad-
mitted within the circle. In addition
to about 1000 tents there are a num-
ber of very handsome two story cot
tages.

RcyisIrniion Ernud..

During the last three months the
newspapers of this State have been dis
cussing the question of restoring the
ballot to the rebels. Singular as it may
seem, there has hardly been a reference
to the enfranchisement of those persons,
not rebels, who are disfranchised under
the unjust operation of the registra-
tioa law. That law gives the registrars
unlimited control over the ballot, and
in exercising it they have prescribed
many hundreds of persons who are en-
titled to vote under all the tests imposed
by the Constitution or by the Legisla-
ture. So long as there is no attempt to
reform the lawless action of the regis.
trars, so long as "loyap men are exclud-
ed from the polls, and the fact calls
forth no protest from Republican
journals, there is little reason to hope
that they will push to conclusions their
arguments in favor of restoring the
ballot to the actual rebels of the State.
We presume it will not be questioned
that the registrars under FOREMAN
greatly exceeded their lawful powers
in carrying out his programme of pro-
scriptiOn. The instances are too numer-
Gus, the wrongs too palpable, the charge
too generally confessed by those Repub-
licans who now see the iniquity of the
FOREMAN business, to admit of any
doubt in the case. 1t will be remem.
bered that some hundreds were disfran-
chised at one time in Barbour county,
under military authority; that those
disfranchised had no opportunity to
make defence, and that their cases were
determined without charge, evidence or
the farce of trial. The withdrawal OF
the troops from Phillippi Immediately
after the election indicated that their
presence there was to make wholesale
disfranchisement easy, while the uu-
questioned Unionism Of the bulk of the
men prescribed showed clearly the in
iquity oftheir prescription. The cleo
tion in that county ef man to the Leg
islature pledged to the support of BORE
MAN for the Senate-a man who could
never have been elected had the lists
not been shorn of all but miserable
minority of the legal voters-furnished
clue to the whole proceeding and left
no doubt of the motives that prompted
it, or of the design for which it was car
ried into effect.
And this is but a single instance ont
of many. Another operation that
showed the now admitted purpose of
the FOREMAN programme was the last
registration in Jefferson county. By
some means, board of registrars had
been selected for that county, who, al
though remarkably severe in adhering
to the letter of the law, seemed deter
mined to enroll every man clearly enti-
tied under the law to registration. The
TACT that they refused to enter upon a
sweeping, indiscriminate course of pro
scfiption was telegrsphed to FOREMAN.
The Jefferson county registrars were at
once renewed, and q new board appoint.
