and the time has seemed ample for the pur-
pose of every ono awaiting himself of the OPP
portunity. This cutlery about the want of
time to register means Il prctense for SIMS

another opportunity given by the odious acts

it, we trust il may signally fail OF its pur-

AS to the alleged vacancies existing among
the officers of registration, the Governor
says:
! am not aware, sir, of single vacancy, spo-
ken of in the resolutions existing Mt present,
or having existed for ii fortnight past, among
the registers. If there are any they have
not been reported by the clerks ofthe respcc-
tive counties, whose duty it is to notify the
Executive ofthc failure of the appointees To

THE CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATIONS.

The names of those gentlemen submitted
by the Democratic conventions which assem-
bled last week, to the people of this State, in
the different congressional districts, as candi-
dates for Congress, are of such high character
as must challenge the respect of their oppo-
nents and enkindle the warmest enthusiasm
and invoke the most hearty support of their
friends In this, the I'd district, the nomina-
ton of Mr. Archer for the position he has al
ready filled so acceptably TO his constituents
for two terms, is source of congratulation
to the people of the district more than to that
gentleman himself. The first contest with
Republicanism REINFORCED by the negro vote
is about to be waged, and we have no doubt
Tut that the we'll known name of MI. Archer
will be worth thousand" votes to the
party in Hartford county this fall No seec.
ton could have so completely ensured the
victory that we shall most certainly achieve.
We hold, as We have ever done, that person
alities are without the legitimate scope of
political discussion, but We feel that We do
not entrench upon that rule when we hold
in comparison before the people of Hartford
the names of Hon. Stevenson Archer and
VIM. nj. Marine, Esq, and ask them which
is most fitted to represent them in the Ma
tional Assembly Aye, even irrespective of
party lines we can still press the inquiry
upon white men of any party utilization, and
ask whether any will be found in this COM
munity willing to make the choice adverse
to our present representative. We believe
that there will be found but few who shall
do so. But for all that, word of caution to
our friends. Do not supinely rest in the as
surance of victory We will cease to be true
to ourselves, and be recreant to the principles
we profess to represent, if every voter shall
not this fall turn out and deposit his ballot
in opposition to the mixed ticket opposed to
us. No matter how little he may think the
general result dependent upon his vote, it is
due to the Democracy to make the political
contest in this State "short, sharp and decis-
i've" 1t can be accomplished at once, for this
time and the future, by each one of us con-
tributing, as far as in him lies, to swell the
majority this fall in favor of our present re-
presentative-the unanimous choice of the
people of Hartford.

PUEBLO MEETINGS.

Now that the campaign has commenced in
earnest, we would suggest that mass meetings
at once be called in each district in the county,
and let every Democrat. show his interest
in the good cause by his presence at these
meetings Numbers and enthusiasm cannot
hil to inspire confidence in our cause, and
be an assurance of success. Many Rcpubi-
cans are far from being pleased with the eff
forts being made to secure the negro vote,
TO the utter disregard of the white element in
their party and many of them have declared
their intention not to vote the Republican
ticket this fall. Let them, also, be invited to
attend these meetings, and unite with us in
the struggle for the perpetuation of the liber-
ties of the white race. Their prejudices may
thus be overcome, and on the day of election
we will see their votes cast for the candidate
of the White Mans party-the Hon Steven
son Archer.

REGENERATION,

The Republican State executive commit
tee, through its chairman, s. NJ Evans, Esq,
last week, prior to the registration, addressed
communication to the Executive of this
State, requesting that an extra session of the
Legislature should be convened, to the end
that the present registry law might he
amended
The resolutions of the committee embodied
in the communication, were to the effect that
sufficient time-siX days in Baltimore city and
three days in the counties-s not allowed by
the law, as it now stands, for all the citizens,
under the Fifteenth Amendment and the en-.
forccment acts of Congress passed in pursu-
ance oft, to become registered; and also that
vacancies of officers of registration exist in
many counties of the State, closing the regis
tration altogether in such places.
The reply ofthe Governor in refusing to
convene the Legislature in extra session, is
forcible, pithy and to the point, at the same
time that it is respectful and dignifed in its
character, as becomes an official response from
the Executive of the State. After reciting the
grounds upon which il is alleged that an extra
session is at this time eXpcdient, namely, "the
fear that there may not be sufficient time for
the officers of registration TO enroll the large
number eff new voters expected to avail them
selves of the right to register" and recitng
the time, as above stated given by the law,
the Governor goes on to say:
This would seem to me to give ample time
to all disposed to avail themselves promptly,
and in good faith, of the opportunity to reg
lister, and while six days in the city of Balti-
more and three in each of the counties are
allowed to register, only one day in either is
allowed TO vote. This has always been the
custom in our own and nearly all the States
OF the Union, and one day having been found
amply sufficient for an election in much more
denSey populated States than MARYLAND |
am confident that the number of days fixed
by law for registration will also be found to
be sufficient to enroll all entitled to the priv
ilege, and who seasonably avail themselves
of it,
If one day is sufficient to poll the vote in
this State, surely the six and three days in
the city and counties respectively are amply
sufficient for registration of all who "are dis.
posed to avail themselves promptly and in
good JaiM of the opportunity to register"
The Governor struck the key note of the
whole design when he used the words
'promptly," and "in good faiM" for it will
be apparent to every unprejudiced mind that
if any trouble shall be hereafter made in re-
gard to our election this fall, upon the grounds
embodied in the communication above refer.

from the negro, but because he neglected to
avail himself of it, for purpose In this

ARRIVAL OF REMAINS FROM CALIFORNIA.
"A few days since Mr.. Charles H. Cough,
son of our late lamented friend Harry d.
Cough, Esq, returned to this county from
California, after an absence of twenty years,
bringing with him the remains of his two
brothers, Harry o. and VIM. Thomas Cough,
both of whom recently died in that State, and
on Wednesday last in the presence Of few
friends and relatives of the family, they were
inferred in the old family graveyard, at
Southampton, near this place, where three
generations now repose. Mr.. Caffrie, of
California, an endeared friend of the brothers,
also accompanied the remains and saw them
deposited in their last resting place.
Two of the brothers, Charles H. and Harry
o. Cough, left Maryland in 1S49 to settle in
California, and have ever since resided there,
except at intervals of brief visits to their ma
tive State They are closely identified with
the history and growth of the great city OF
san Francisco, and have occupied various
positions there of usefulness to their fellow
citizens. VIM. Thomas Cough, Esq, studied
law and graduated in this town, and also
subsequently emigrated to California, where
he successfully pursued the practice of his
profession. Even before his departure from
our midst he was widely known here as a
gentleman of liberal education and solid at

for him the success he subsequently achieved

A DEFAULTER.-We learn from the Balti-
more papers that General Bowerman, Deputy
Collector of that port, under Col. Webster,
former Collector, and Hon. John l.. Thomas,
the present Collector, has proved a defaulter
to the government in large sum, amounting
to near $4,000 1t was at first rumorcd
that Col. Webster would suffer considera-
BILE pecunary loss on his account, but we
learn more recently that the transactions in
volving the default occurred since the pres
ent Collector has occupied the position, and
that even he has been secured by transfer of
property from the defaulting officer, to an
amount nearly sufficient to indemnify him
for any loss likely to occur. Gen. Bowerman
was Immediately removed from his position,
and Baltus H. Kcnnard, Esq, of Baltimore
city, appointed in his place.
