These are four separate causes

involve the same question, and have
been argued together, shall consider
them together. Mcpherson was the
Clerk of the Circuit Court, Robinson the
Sheriff and Lewis the Recorder of said
county and Walker the Supervisor o.
one of the townships thereof.
Proceedings were instituted against
these parties to remove them from theil
respective offices, because their names
had been, after they were respectively
elected, struck from the lists Of regis
tered voters, of said county.
The proceedings were upon rules, al
of which are the same, except as to the
names of the parties, and the offices
held by them respectively.
Here is the one against Mcpherson, as
sample of the whole:

THE STATE OF WEST VIRGINS

To the Sheriff Of Greenbrier County, Greet
ing:
We command you that you summon
Joel Mcpherson, Clerk of the Circuit
Court of Greenbrier County, if he be
found in your bailiwick, to appear be
fore the Judge of the Circuit Court fer
Greenbrier county, at the Court House
of said county, on tomorrow morning,
10 o'clock, to show cause, if any he can,
why his office as Clerk should not be
declared to be vacated, and he prohibited
from any further exercise thereof, because
since his election to said office he has
been struck off, by the Board of Regis
tration Of Greenbrier county, from the
list of registered voters of said county.
And have then there this writ.
Witness, Joel Mcpherson, Clerk of the
said Court, at the Court House of said
county, the 9th day of January, 1869,
and in the 9th year of the State.
JOEL MCPHERSON.
The parties respectively appeared and
moved to quash the rules against them,
but the Court refused to quash them, or
any of them, by which the question is
raised here for consideration, whether
or not the matters charged in the rules,
if true, is sufficient cause for removal
from office.
The fourth section of the third article
of the Constitution provides that, "No
persons, except citizens entitled to vote,
shall be elected or appointed to any
State, county or municipal office" IT.
is claimed that under the act passed
February 25, 1867, entitled "An act,
providing for the registration of the
qualified voters of this State" as
amended by the act passed March A,
1865, if the name of any voter be
struck from the list of registered
voters, he thereby forfeits and va
Gates any Office to which he may
have been before that time elected, al
though at the time he was elected he
may have been duly qualified and
registered voter.
The 22d section of the act for the reg
istration of voters provides that "the
board of registration of each county
shall have the sole jurisdiction to try
and determine the right of any person
to vote therein under the constitution
and laws of this State, and their deci-
sion shall be final, except in cases of
contested elections before either house
of the Legislature"
The object and purpose of the Legis-
lature was to determine the right of
persons to vote at any particular cleo
ton, and is plainly manifested through
out the whole act, and the act makes
the decision Of the board of registration
conclusive of that question. But there
is no provision in the act, declaring that
if the name of an Office
holder shall be struck from the
list of registered voters, he shall for
that reason be removed from his office,
when he was before that time duly
elected and indicted into office.
The motion to quash each and every
one of the rules should, therefore, have
been sustained.
The judgment in each case will have
to be reversed and the rules quashed.

two hundred special officers to the mayor was
lost on tie vote, the object ia view as set forth
in the resolution, being to assist in the collection
of license tax and to act as police, under the
control of the mayor.
Mr.. Fisher, in explaining the matter, stated that
the present city government had ignored the me-
tropolitan police, and, OF course, Il could not be
supposed that they could work together in har-
mony. In his opinion, the sppontment;of an ad-
ditional police was Indispensable.
Mr.. Pemberton thought differently, and made
lengthy speech in opposition.
The upper board here entering the room, the
council proceeded to the election Of depositary
for the city funds. The Southern Bank receiving
the unanimous vote of the council, was declared
elected; and also for the election OF three MEM
bers of the Board of Health. and Dr. Legree,
DR.. Drew and DR.. Herrick having received the
highest number of votes, were declared duly
elected.

We are indebted to Captain Breard, of the

as well as to passengers on those steamers. which
are just down from Camden, on the Ouachita. for
the following particulars of outrages committed,
very recently, by the negro militia appointed by
Governor Clayton, the Radical governor Of Ar.

In Ashley county, they robbed Mr.. VIM

him to pay $1,000 in greenbacks and $1,000 in gold,

their warehouse. They are robbing the people Of
all their corn and provisions, mules and horses,
guns and pistols. which they either destroy or
appropriate to their own use. They do not spare
a mans purse, and by presenting loaded gun or
q navy six, make him shell out the cash. The
citizens are in state of great CONSERVATION and
many are leaving their homes. They are now
going around among the people in the county,

sign. binding them to protect the negro militia
which they intend organizing in said county !;
those who refuse to sign they say they intend to
burn out. They are composed of Kansas jay

commit these depredations only in the counties
declared under martial law. Neither the lives
nor the property of citizens are safe where they

At Hamburg, we learn from the captain and
passengers of the Tahlequah, the militia took pos
session and sacked al the stores in the town.
At Marie saline the militia took possession of

CITY TOPICS.

Tie cOlOred people appear 20 be getting FESTIVE
under Warmoth's non-fulHlment of the pledges
under which be was elected, which were, as the
darkies construed them, to force the blacks into
every theater and every school. His veto OF the
civil equality bill last summer first weakened their
faith in him, and the ambiguous and undecided
character Of that portion OF his message which
refers to education, has rendered them doubly
distrustful. The Tribune, their organ, is very
severe on Warmoth, and urges the colored mem
bers of the Legislature, spite of everything, to
make laws providing for mixed schools and mixed
iheaters. Doubtless the white Radicals will see
the impolcy Of any such measures and avert
them. How the negroes will take such breaches
of faith remains to be seen. 1t is a split in the
ranks, anyhow, and may benefit the people.
