IS THERE HOPE?
The clouds arc very dark and dreary,
And my heart is weary, weary,
Os the toil and pain of life.
Friends I’vo loved have gone for ever,
They can chocr me, never, never,
0 ! I pray release from strife.
Once my life was full of promise,
Hopes were bright and gave sweet solace
To each hour of the day ;
And the ecstasy of thinking,
Soon my gnordon I’d be drinking,
Seemed a bright and glowing ray.
Hearts of love beat round me, calling
Into life, that Peace, which falling
On my heart gave purest rest—
And the rich blood mounted higher,
As that rest came nigher, nigher,
E’en to fulness of the breast.
Oh ! how happy the delusion,
When at last the act of fusion
Made the gold and dross both one;
Made all trust like precious metal,
Aud above my head to settle,
Light as bright as noonday sun.
Then, then, a Love which stealing,
Like midnight music, made the feeling
Os all woe sink deep in sleep.
Made the inmost pulse beat faster.
When I thought that “God the Master’’
Me might let the jewel keep.
And I loved her, oh! so dearly,
So devotedly, so sincerely,
That my breast but one thought knew—
And I said, if I must sever
From this Idol' then I never
More can prize the morning dew;
Yea! never more look at the sunlight,
Nor at the stars, that twink at night
In the cerulean realms above.
Put with heart crushed down in sorrow,
With no more dreams of to-morrow,
I will die like morning dew.
And oh! Father! since Thou givest
Unto every one thatlivest,
One Hope brighter than them all:
Since Thou fillcst hearts with gladness,
Which before were bound in madness,
And unto Thee could not call;
Hnco the Hope which Thou revealing,
Seems like grandest anthem pealing,
In the worship of Thy name;
Why must my heart, bruised and broken,
He without a single token,
That Thy love for me’s the same.
Tut farewell! my Hopes have perished;
And the Love my fond heart cherished,
With them buried in the grave;
/ nd the sombre yow tree’s shadow,
AY ith the mourning weeping willow,
Are all now that o’er them wavo.
Not a single violet springing,
Not a roso its perfume bringing,
Moves the sadness off their tomb—
But the Darkness deeply settles ;
Grim Despair with Darkness battles,
And the conflict’s one of gloom.
Now, oh Father! who art mighty,
And who ever fceleth pity;
Take me to Thy Home above,
Where in tbo Angelic circle wheeling.
My poor heart can know one feeling,
And that feeling, 14 God is Love.”

Try.
There was once upon a time a good
lillle dwarf named Try, who was so
powerful that he overcame almost every
thing he attempted; and yet he was so
small and ill-favored that people laughed
when they were told of his wondrous
power, Ilut the tiny man was so kind
at heart, and loved so much to serve his
unfortunate and desponding brethren,
that be would go and beg of those who
knew him better to intercede for him so
that he might be allowed to help them out
of their troubles; and, when once he
had made them happy by his noble
deeds, they no longer despised him, or
drove him from them with sneers, but
loved him as their truest friend. Yet
the only return this good dwarf sought
lor his service was, that when they heard
ol any one who wanted a helping hand,
they would say a good word iu his lavor,
anti leeommcud him.
Cimreitatien,
llow ineaiculaby would the tone ol
conversation be improved if it offered
no exceptions to the example of Bishop
Beveridge’. “Resolve never to speak ol
a man’s virtues to his lace, nor his
faults behind his back.” A golden
rule, the observance of which would nt
once banish flattery and defamation
Item the earth. Conversation stock
being a joint and common property,
every one should take a share in it, and
v.l there may be societies in which
silence will be our best contribution.
When Isocrates, dining with the King
of Cyprus, was ahked why he did not
mix in the discourse ol the company,
he replied, “What is seasonable 1 do
i ol know, and what 1 know is not tea*
s mable.”
A brilliant talker is not always liked
by those whom lie bus most amused, lor
we hre seldom pledsed with those who
have in any way made us feel inferior
ity- "The happiest conversation,” says
jir. Johnson, “is that of which nothing
is distinctly reineoibelod, but which
■leave* behind a pleasing impression.”
“No one,” says Dean Locker, “will ever
shine in conversation who thinks of
sat mg line things ; to please, one must
say. many llungs indifferent. This last
rule is ralcly broken in society.
Registration Order.

Atlanta, Oa., May 21, 1867- }
OkKMAL OhßkhA,’?
Hu. 20. f
In accordance with an act of Con
gross, supplementary lo an Act to pro
vide a more efficient Government for
the rebel States, Ac., dated March 2,
1807, ihe following arrangements are
herein made for the registration of vo
ters in the States of Georgia and Ala
bama.
I. The Slates of Georgia and Alaba
ma, are divided into Registration Di
stricts, numbered aud bounded, us here
inafter described.
11. A Board of Registration is herein
apjKtfnted (or each District, n.s above
mentioned, to consist of two white ltc
gisters, and one colored Register. In
the Slate 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, and cause to be duly
qualified, a competent colored man to
complete Ihe Board of Registration, and
report his name and Postoffice address,
without delay, to Col. C. C. Sibley,
commanding District of Georgia, at
Macon, Georgia.
111. Each Register will be required
to take and subscribe to the oath pre
scribed by Cougress, by an act dated
July 2, 18112, aud an additional oath to
discharge faithfully the duty of Register
under the lata Acts of Congress. It is
not believed that any of the appoint
ees, heretofore designated, will be
unable to take the test oath above
mentioned. Blank forms of these oaths
will be sent to the appointees at once,
and on being executed and returned to
the Superintendents of State Registra
tion, their Commissions as Registers
will be issued, and forwarded to them
immediately.
IV. In order to secure a full registra
tion (*f voters, it is determined to fix the
compensation of Registers according to
the general rules adopted in taking the
census. In the cities, the compensation
is fixed at fifteen cents for each recorded
voter; in the most sparsely settled
counties and districts, nt forty cents per
voter. The compensation will be grad
uated between those limits, according
to the density’ of the population, and the
facilities of the communication. Ten
cents per mile will he allowed for trans
portation of Registers off the lines of
railroads or steamboats, and five cents
per mile, when travel is done on rail
roads aud steamboats-
V. It is hereby made the duty of all
Registers, aud they will be expected to
perform it strictly, to explain to all
persons, who have not heretofore enjoyed
the right of suffrage, what are their
political rights and privileges, and the
necessity of exercising them upon all
proper occasions.
VI. The name of each voter shall
appear in the list of voters, for the
preciuct 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
cincts, where such voters live, oppor
tunity will be given to register at the
county seats of their respective counties,
at a specified time, of which due notice
will be given; but the names of all
voters, thns registered, will be placed on
the lists of voters of their respective
precincts.
VII. The Boards of Registration will
give due notice, so that it may reach all
persons entitled to register, ol the date
when they will be in each election pre
cinct; the time they will spend in it;
and the place where the registration will
he made; and upon the completion of
the registration for each county, the
Board of Registration will give notice
that they will be 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, 1867, comprise all persons
whomsoever, who have held office under
the 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,
bat who are considered disqualified bv
the Boards, will be permitted to take
the required oath, which, with the
objections ol the Board, will he hold for
adjudication hereafter.
IX. The lists of registered voters, for
each of the precincts, will be exposed in
some public place in that precinct, for
tori consecutive days, at some time sub
sequent to the completion of the regi
stration lor 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 be given and provision made
for the time and place for examination
and settlement of such cases.
X. Blank books of oaths, required to
be taken by voters, and blank registra
tion lists, us also full and detailed in
structions for the performance of tbeir
duties, will be at once 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 and dis
patch;
XI. The detailed instructions to Re
gisters will designate the member of
each Board who shall be its President.
XII. Violence, or threats of violence,
or any other oppressive means to pre
vent any person from registering his
mime, or exercising his polities! 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
than that actually consumed in register
ing or voting, will be 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.
XIII. The exercise of the right of
every duly authorized voter, under the
late Acts of Congress, to register and
vote, is guarantied by the Military
Authorities of this District; aud all
persons whomsoever are warned against
any attempt lo intcrlere to prevent ami
man from exercising this right, under
any pretext whatsoever, other than
objection by the usual legal mode.
XIV. In case of anv disturbance, or
violence at the places of registration, or
any molestation of Registers or of appli
cants to register, Ihe Boards ol Regis
tration will call upon the local civil
authorities for a police force, or a posse
to arrest the offenders and preserve
quiet, or, if necessary, upon (he nearest
military authorities, who are hereby
instructed to furnish the necessary aid.
Aliy civil officials who refuse, or who
fail lo protect Registers, or applicants to
register, will be reported to the head
quarter* of the Officer Commanding in
tho State, who will arrest such delin
quents, and send charges against them
to these headquarters, that they may be
brought before a Military Commission.

MILITARY BILL.
IID QTRS. 3d MILITARY DIST.,
Montgomery, Ala., April 8.
General Orders No. 5.
1. The following extract from the
recent Acts of Congress in relation to
Reconstruction in the Southern States,
is published for the information of all
concerned :
[Public No. 6 ]
An Act suppliinentary to “An act en
titled an act to provide for the more
efficient government of the rebel
States,” passed March 2, 1867, and
to facilitate rcstointion.
Be it enacted, etc., That ffefore the
first day of September, 1807, the com
manding general in each district (de
fined by an act entitled “An act to pro
vide for the more efficient government
of the rebel States,” passed March 2,
1867,) shall cause a registration to be
made of the male citizens of the United
States, twenty one years o age, and
upwards, resident in each county or
parish in the State or States included
in his district, which registration shall
include only those persons who are
qualified to vote for delegates by the act
aforesaid, and who shall have taken and
subscribed the following oath or affirma
tion :
“I, , do solemnly swear, or
affirm, in the presence of Almighty
God, that I am a citizen of the State ot
for months next proceeding this
day, and now reside in the county of
as the ease may be; that I am 21
years old ; that i have not been disfran
chised lor participation in any rebellion
or civil war against the United States,
nor for felony committed against the
laws of any State or the United States;
that 1 have never been a member or
any State Legislature, nor held any
executive or judicial office in any State,
and afterwards engaged in insurrection
or rebellion against the United States,
or given aid or comfort to the enemies
thereof; that I have never taken an
oath as a member of Cotigaess of the
United States, or as an officer of the
United Stales, or as a member of any
State Legislature, or as as an executive
or judicial officer of any Stale, to sup
port the Constitution of the United
United Slates, aud afterwards engaged
in insurrection or rebellion against the
United States, or given aid or comfort
to the enemies thereof; that I will
faithfully support the Constitution and
obey the laws of the United States, and
will, to tho best of my ability, encour
age others so to do. So help me God
which oath or affirmation may be ad
ministered by any registering officer.
Sec;.4. That the commanding general
of each district shall appoiut as muny
Boards of Registration as may be neces
sary, consisting of three loyal officers or
persons, to m*ke aud complete the reg
istration. superintend the election, and
make return to him of the votes, list of
voters and of the persons elected as del
egates by a plurality of voles cast at
said election.
» * # #
11. In order to execute this provision
of the act referred to with as little delay
as possible, the commanding officers of
the Districts of Alabama, Geor.ia and
Florida, will proceed immediately to
divide those States into convenient Dis
tricts for Registration, aided by such
information on the subject as they have
or can obtain. It is suggested that the
election districts in each State which in
1860 sent r. member to the most numer
ous branch of the State Legislature, will
be found a convenient division for Reg
istration. It is desirable that in all
cases the registers shall be civilians
where it is possible to obtain such as
come within the provisions of the Act,
and are otherwise suitable persons; and
that military officers shall not he used
for this purpose except in eases of
actual necessity. The compensation for
registers will be fixed hereafter, but the
general rule will be observed of gradua
ting the compensation by the number ot
recorded voters. To each list of voters
shall be appended the oath of the regis
ter or registers that the names have
been faithfully recorded, and represent
actual legal voters, and that the same
man does not appear under different
names. The registers are specially in
structed to see that all information con
cerning their political rights is given to
persons entitled to vote under the Act of
Congress; and they are made responsi
ble that every such legal voter has the
opportunity to record his name.
111. As speedily as possible, the names
of persons chosen for registers shall be
communicated to these Headquarters
for the approval of the Com.naudiug
General.
IV. The District Commander in each
of the States comprised in this Military
District is authorized to appoint one or
more general Supervisors of Registration
whose business it shall be to visit the
various points where registration is be
ing carried on ; to inspect the opera
tions of the registers ; and to assure
themselves that every man entitled to
vote has the necessary information con
cerning his political rights, and the
opportunity to record his name.
V. A General Inspector, either an
officer of the army or a civilian, will be
appointed at these Headquarters, to see
that the provisions of this order are
fully and carefully executed.
VI. Dist rict Commanders may, at
their discretion, appoint the civil offi
cers of the United States as Registers,
with such additional compensation as
may seem reasonable and sufficient.
VII. The Commanding Officer o
each District wili give public notice
when and where the Registers will
commence the Registration, which no
tice will be kept public bv the Registers
in each District during the whole time
occupied in Registration.
VIII. Interference by violence, or
threats of violence, or other oppressive
means, to prevent the Registration of
any voter, is positively prohibited, and
any person guilty ot such interference
shall be arrested and tried by the mili
tary authorities.
