YOL. 11l Who are Entitled to Vote t This question has uot received the attention iteimporteuoe demands- There is indeed, a degree ot ignorance on the subject which is much to be lamented. Even among well informed persons there is a lack of information which under the circumstances, is almost in excusable. Such of our readers there fore, as are fnniiliar with their rights under the law, should not only indulge, hut aid us in our efforts to explain them to others: In the first place, if is a great mis take, as many suppose, that ail. persons who held office prior to the war, are thereby excluded from the ballot box. By no manner ot meaue isqhis so. On the contrary, we ondertadie to -affirm that no man is excluded simply because he happened to hold an office either Federal or Stnte; nor does the law proscribe any man merely because he engaged in the rebellion, no matter whether the engagement was voluntary or by compulsion. Two things are necessary under the law to work dis franchisement, and these things must be concurrent —that is to say, the party must have taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United status, (in the sense prescribed by the law), and afterwards voluntarily engaged in the rebellion to deprive him of the right of suffrage, or render him ineligible to* office. We therefore undertake to lay down the following propositions as in controvertible_ , . (1.) A mart may halve held office either Federal or Elate; and in that capacity have taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States, uot afterwards engaging iu the rebellion, aud he is,a voter. (2) Or he may have voluntarily engaged iu the rebellion, not having previously taken the oath iu the capa city aforesaid, and he is a voter. (3) Or he may have taken the oath and afterwards engaged in rebellion by force of conscription, and he is a voter. ■ a It follows, 'herelore, as we have before remarked, that two concurrent circum stances are necessary to exclude a mail from the ballot—that is to say, he must, under the law have taken an oath as a member of Congress or as an officer af the Federal Government, either civil or military, or as a member ot any State Legislature, or as an executive or judi cial officer of any State to support the Constitution of the United States, and afterwards voluntarily engaged in rebel lion a.'ainst the same, or giveu aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. What is meant by engaging in the rebellion is not defined by the act, but it is held by high authority that the mere expression of “disloyal senti ments” is uot sufficient to bring the party within the range of the excluded class. It would seem to require an active participation in the rebellion, such as hearing arms or holding a commission iu the rebel army, to work an exclusion. For it appears clear enough by the act itself, that the man who happened to be elected Judge, or a Justice of the Peace, prior to the war and continued in otlire and performed its functions during the whole period of its existence, not having otherwise engaged iu the rebellion, is not thereby excluded from the ballot. We stated m our previous issoe, that the opinion of the Attorney General tended to “enlarge rather than diminish the excluded class,” but upon a more thorough examination ot his views, we are not so certain about that. It is true, he undertakes to disfranchise a certain class, to wit: Members of the rebel Legislatures and other persons not before considered as coming within the purview of the act, hut in other re peels, the excluded class or class supposed to be excluded by his opinion, “grows small by degrees aud beautifully less.” Where there is so much doubt aud uncertainty, it is but fair that the party sought, to be punished, should have the benefit of the doubt. Every man first satisfying his own conscience that he is entitled to vute, should present his name for registration—for no one, no matter how loyal, will be allowed to vote unless he has previously registered. And wc ■ maintain that every man (uot clearly coming within the range ol one of the excluded classes), who is a citizen ol the United States, twenty oue years of age, and has resided one year in the State next preceding his application, is entitled to register. Who is the judge of his right? Certainly the party him •elf should not be allowed to fix the taint of his own disloyalty, nor is it the duty of the Board of Registers to do so. The idea is, that every niau registers at his peril, and those found abusing the privilege render themselves liable to be prosecuted for perjury—that is the pro hibition, the only constraint. The Attorney General confesses that he encountered much difficulty in en dtavoring to ascertain what is meant, by the expression “Executive officers,” and it is due the eminent Counsellor to admit that upon this point as well as upon certiiu others, he left his readers in quite as much “painful uncertainty” as he found himself. Naturally enough, he concludes that municipal officers are not, aud the better opinion is that “County officers” are not, though with regard to thorn the Attorney General reserve his opiuiun lor another occasion. Give us the extracts, and then “we shall see what we shall behold.” —.Tal- lahassee Sentinel. important to Plituterg, The Richmond Factory (Near Augusta Factory), CONTINUES TO MANUFACTURE WOOLLEN CLOTH, for Plaulers, at 20 Ctala per Yard for Plain, and 25 Coots for Twills.

In place of a course, rustic, flushed face, she had a soft ruby complexion of almost marble smooth ness, and instead of twenty three she really appeared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause of so great a change, she plainly told them that she used the CIRCASSIAN BALM, aud considered it an invaluable acquisition to any Lady’s toilet. By its use any lady or gentleman can improve their personal appearance an hundred fold. It is simple in its combination, as Nature herself is simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in drawing impurities from, also healing, cleansing, and beautifying the akin and complexion. By its direct action on the euticle it draws from it all its impurities, kindly healing tho samo, and leaving the surface as Nature intended it should be, clear, soft, smooth, and beautiful.

REPARATOR CAPILII, For restoring hair upon bald heads (from whatever cause it may have fallen out) and forcing a growth of hair upon the face, it has no equal. It will force tho hoard to grow upon the smoothest faco in from five to eight weeks, or hair upon bald beads in from two to three months. A few ignorant practitioners have asserted that there is nothing that. wiLLforoe or hasten the growth of the hair or beard. Their assertions are false, as thousands of living witnesses (from their own experience), can bear witness. But many will say, how are we to distin guish the genuine from the spurious? It certainly is difficult, as nine-tenths of the different preparations advertised for the hair and beard are entirely worthless, and you may have already thrown away large amounts in their purchase. To such wo would say, try tho Reparator Capilli ; it will cost you nothing unless it fully comes up to our representations. If your Druggist does not keep it, send us one dollar and we will forward it, post paid, together with a receipt for the money, which will be re turned you on application, providing entire satisfaction is not given.
