At the election for Governor and mem
bers OF Congress, in South Carolina, on
the 18Th of October last, the managers
Of election at Ladies Island allowed five
eolored females to vote. The managers
we're all black. Rev. Kit Green and
Stephen Sheppard, managers Of election,
were arrested and indicted under the En-
forcemeDt act Of Congress, charged with
neglect of duty and violation Of law ID
allowing females to vote. At the Feb
ruary term of the United States Court of
South Carolina, the cases came up be-
fore Judge Bryan. The jury found the
managers guilty, and they were sentenced
to six months in Jail and to pay fine of
$500. Counsel for the managers, in due
time, presented his bin of exceptions,
and carried the case to the Circuit Court
of the United States, to be held at
Charleston this month, the ground of
appeal being that the Constitution and
the laws authorized females to vote.
