VOL. 111.
Who nr* Entitled to Vote T
This question has not received the
attention its importance 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 oar readers there
fore, as are familiar with their rights
under the law, should not only indulge,
but aid ui in our efforts to explaiu
them to others:
In the first place, it is a great mis
take, as many suppose, that all persons
who held office prior to the war, are
thereby excluded from the ballot box.
By no manner of means is this so. On
the contrary, we undertake to affirm
that no mau is excluded simply because
he happened to hold an office either
Federal or State; nor. does the law
proscribe any man merely because he
engaged in the rebellion, uo matter
whether the engagement was voluntary
or by compulsion. Two things are
necessary under the law to work dis
franchisement, ami these things must
he concurrent —that is to say, the party
must have taken an oath to support the
Constitution of the United States, (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 man may have held office
either Federal or State, and in that
capacity have taken an oiith to Snppoit
the Constitution of the United States,
not afterwards engaging in the rebellion,
and he is a voter.
(2) Or he may have voluntarily
engaged in the rebellion, not having
previously taken the oath in 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.
it follows, therefore, as we have before
remarked, that two concurrent circum
stances are necessary to exclude a man
trom the ballot—that is to say, he must,
under the law have taken an oath as a
member ot Congress or as an officer ol
the Federal Government, either civil or
military, or ns a member ol any State
Legislature, or as an executive or judi
cial officer of any Slate to support the
Constitution of the United States, and
afterwards voluntarily engaged in rebel
j lion against the same, or given 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 not 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 bearing arms or holding a
commission in 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 office and performed
its functions during the whole period of
its existence, uot having otherwise
engaged in the rebellion, is not thereby
excluded from the ballot.
We stated in our previous issue, that
the opinion of the Attorney General
tended to “enlarge rather than diminish
the excluded class,” but upon a more
thorough examination of 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 coining within the
purview of the act, but in other re pects,
the excluded class or class supposed to
be excluded by his opinion, “grows
small by degrees and beautifully less.”
Where there is so much doubt and
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 lie is
entitled to vote, should present bis name
for registration—for no one, no matter
how loyal, will be allowed to vote unless
lie has previously registered. And we
maintain that every man (not clearly
coming within the range ol one ot the
excluded classes), who is a citizen ol
the United States, twenty one 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
self should not he allowed to lix the
taint of his own disloyalty, nor is it the
duty of the Board of Registers to do so.
The idea is, that every man 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 certain others, be left his readers
in quite as much “painful uncertainty”
as he found himself. Naturally enough,
he concludes that municipal officers are
not, and the better opinion is that
“County officers” are niff, though with
regard to them the Attorney General
reserve his opinion for another occasion.
Give us the extracts, and then “we
shall see what we shall behold.” — Tal

A YOUNG LADY RETURN
ING to her country home, after a sojourn
of a few months in tho city, was hardly
recognised b, her friends. 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, and 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 beating,
cleansing, and beautifying the skin and
complexion. By its direct action on the
euticle it draws from it all its impurities,
kindly healiug the same, and leaving the
surface as Nature intended it should be,

Throw away your false frizzes, your switches,

Destructive of comfort, and not worth a fig:
Come aged, come youthful, oome ugly aud
fair,
And rejoice in your own luxuriant hair.
REPARATOR - CAPILLI,
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 the beard to
grow upon the smoothest face in from five
to eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in
from two to three months. A few ignorant
practitioners have asserted that there is
nothing that will force 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 thp
hair and board are entirely worthless, and
you may have already thrown away large
amounts in their purchase. To such we
would say, try the Reparator Capilli j it
will cost you nothing unless it fully oomgs
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. Address,

There coraeth glad tidings of joy to all,
To young and to old, to great and to small,
The beauty which once was so precious an<j
rare,
Is free for all, and all may be fair,
BY THK USE OF
CHASTELLAR’S
WHITE LIQUID
ETSTAMEL !
For Improving and Beautifying the
Complexion.
THE MOST VALUABLE AND PER
FECT preparation in use, for giving the
skin a beautiful pearl-like tint, that as only
found in youth. It quickly romoves Tan,
Freckles, Blotches, Moth Patches, Sallow
ness, Eruptions, and all impurities of the
skin, kindly healing the same, leaving the
skin white and clear as alabaster. Its use
cannot be detected by the closest scrutiny,
and being a vegetable preparation is per
fectly harmless. It is the only article of
the kind used by the French, aud is con
sidered l»y the Parisian as indispensable to
a perfect toilet. Upwards of 30,000 bottles
were sold during the past year, a sufficient
guarantee of its efficacy. Price only 76
cents. Sent by mail, postpaid, on receipt
of an order, by
