ters in the States ot Georgia and-Ala

ma, are divided into Registration Di
stricts, numbered and bounded, as here

11. A Board of Registration is herein
appointed tor each District, as above
mentioned, to consist of two white Re
gisters, and one colored Register. In
the State of Georgia, where only the
two white Registers are designated in
this Order, it is directed that these
white Registers in each District imme
diately select, aud cause to be duly
qualified, a competent colored man to
complete the Board of Registration, and

to take and subscribe to the oath pre
scribed by Congress, by an act dated
July 2, 1862. and an additional oath to

not believed that auy ot the appoint
ees, heretofore designated, will be

mentioned. Blank forms ot these oaths
will be sent to the appointees it once,
and on being executed and returned to
the uperintendents of Sttttc Registra

counties and district*, at forty cents per
voter. The compensation willvbe grad
uated between these limits, according
to the density of the population, and the
taciliiies of tb<- communication. Ten
cents per mile will be allowed for trails

i proper occasions.
VI. The name of each voter shall
appear in the list of voters, for the
precinct or ward in which he resides;
and in cases where voters have been
unable to register, whilst the Boards of
Registration were in the wards or pre
cinets, where such voters live, oppor
tunity will be given to register at the
county seals of their respective counties,
at aspecified time, of which due notice’
will be given; but the names of all
voters, thus registered, willbe placed on
the lists of voters of thejr respective
precincts.
VII. The Bowls of Registration will
give due notice, so that it may reach ail
persons entitled to register, o! the date
when they will be in each election pre
cinct; the litpe they will spend in it;
and the place where the registration will

Board of Registration wiii give notice
that they will he present, for three suc
cessive days at the county seat ol such
county, to register such voters, as have
failed to register, or been prevented from
registering in their respective precincts,
and to hear evidence in the case of
voters, rejected by the Registers in the
several precincts, who may desire to
present testimony in their own behalf.
VIII. Unless otherwise instructed
hereafter, Boards of Registration are
directed, in determining whether appli
cants to register are legally qualified, to
hold that the terms “Executive and
Judicial.” in the Acts of Congress of
March 23, 1807, comprise all persons
whomsoever, who have held office under
tlie Executive, or Judicial Department
of the State, or National Government—
in other words, all officers not Legisla
tive, which last are also excluded by
the Act. Persons who apply to register,
hut who are considered disqualified by
the Boards, will he permitted to take
the required oath, which, with the
objections of the Board, will be held for
adjudication heraaltcr.
IX. The lists ot registered voters, for
each of the precincts, will be exposed in
some public place in that precinct, for
ten consecutive days, at some time sub
sequent to the completion of the regi
stration’for each county, and before any
election is held, in order that all sup
posed cases of fraudulent registration
may be thoroughly investigated. Due
notice will he given and provision made
for the time and place for examination
and settlement of suc h cases.
X. Blank books of oaths, required to
be taken by voters, ana blank registra
Lion lists, as also full and detailed in
struelious for the performance of their
duties, will be at onee forwarded to the
Boards of Registration, appointed in
this Order; and it is enjoined upon these
Boards that they proceed to complete
the registration with all energy aud dis
patch.
XI. The detailed instructions to lie
gisters will designate the member of
each Board who shall bo its President,
XII. Violence, or threats of violence,
or any other oppressive means to pre
vent any person from registering bis
name, or exercising his political rights,
are positively prohibited ; and it is
distinctly announced that no contract or
agreement with laborers, which deprives
them of their wages for any longer time
Ilian that actually consumed in register
ing or voting, will he permitted to be
enforced against them in this District ;
and this offense, or any previously
mentioned in this paragraph, will cause
the immediate arrest of the offender
and his trial before a Military Commis
sion.

ASTROLOGY.
The World Astonished
AT THE WONDERFUL REVELATIONS
MADE BY TIIE GREAT ASTROLOGIST,
M ADAME 11. A. PEHRIGO.
She reveals secrets no mortal ever knew.
She restores to happiness those who, from
doleful events, catastrophes, crosses in love,
loss of relations an A friends, loss of money,
etc., have become despondent. She brings
together those long separated, gives infor
mation concerning absent friends or lovers,
restores lost or stolen property, tells you the
busiuess yon are best qualified to pursue
and in what you will be most successful,
causes speedy marriages and tells you the
very day you will marry, gives you the
name, likeness, and characteristics of the
person. She reads your very thoughts, and
by her almost supernatural powers, unveils
the dark and hidden mysteries of the future.
From the stars we see in the firmament—
the melific stars that overcome or predomi
nate in the configuration—from the aspects
aud positions of the planets and the fixed
stars in the heavens at the time of birth,
she deduces the future destiny of man. Fail
not to consult the greatest Astrologist on
earth. It costs you but a trifle, and you
may never agaiu haye so favorable an op
portunity. Consultation fee, with likeness
and all desired information, sl. Parties
living at a distance can consult the Madame
by mail with equal safety and satisfaction
to themselves, as if in person. A full and
explicit chart, written out., with all inqui
ries answered and* likeness enclosed, aent
by mail on receipt of price above mentioned.
The strictest secrecy will be maintained,
aud all correspondence returned or de
atrpyed. References of the highest order
furnished those desiring them. Write plain
ly the day of the month and year in which
you were born, enclosing a small lock of
hair. Address, *
