YOU. 111.
Who are Entitled to Vote f
This question has not received the
attention it* importance demands. There
i* indeed, a degree ot ignorance on the
subject which la much to l>e lamented.
Even among well tnlurmed persons
there is a lack of information which
under the circumstances, is almost in
excusable. Such of our readers there
fore, as are familiar with tbeir right*
under the law, should not only indulge,
but aid u* in our efforts to explain
them to others:
lu the first place, it is a great mis
take. ns many suppose, that’alt persons
who held office prior to the war, are
thereby excluded from the ballot box.
I!v no manner of means is this so. On
thtf dOnnbry; we undertake to affirm
that no man is excluded simply because
he Imppeued Jo hold au office either
Federal or State; tior does the law
prescribe any mau merely because he
engaged in the rebellion, Bo matter
whether the engagement was voluntary
or by compulsion. Two tilings 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 States, (in!
the sense prescribed by the law). ami
afterwards voluntarily engaged in the
rebellion to deprive him of the right of
suffrage, or render him' inefligUiTe to
offieey We therefore undertake to lay
down the following propositions as in
controvertible;
(1.) A man may have held office
either Federal or Slate, and ip that
capacity have taken an oath to support
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 haying
previously taken the oath in the capa
city aforesaid, and lie is a voter.
(3) Or he,mav have taken the oath
and afterwards engaged in rebellion by
force of conscription, and he is a voter.
It follows, therefore, as we have beljure
remarked, that two concurrent circum
stances are necessary to exclude a man
from the ballot—that is to say, he must,
under the law have taken an oath as a
member ot Congress or as an officer ot
the Federal Government, either ci'il or
military, or as a member ot any State
Legislature, or as au executive or judi
cial officer of any State to support the
Constitution of the United States, and
afterwards voluntarily engaged iii rebel
lion against the same, or_ given aid or
comfort to the enemi s 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,
sneb as bearing arms or holding a
commission in the rebel army, to work
au exclusion. For it appears clear
enough by the act itself, that the man
who happened to be elected Judge, or a
Justice ot the Peace, prior to the war
and continued in office and performed
its functions during the whole period of
its existence, not having otherwise
engaged in the rebellion, is not thereby
excluded from the ballot.
We stattid 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 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, but in other re poets,
the excluded class or class suppnSi-d to
be excluded by his opinion, “grows
small by degrees and beautifully less.”
Where there is so nint h doubt and
uncertainty, it is but fair that, the party
sought, to be punished, should have the
benefit a ol the doubt. Every untn first
satisfying itis own conscience that lie is
entitled to vote, should present his name
for registration—for no one, no matter
how loyal, w ill be allowed to vote unless
he has previously registered. And we
maintain that every man (nut dearly
eoming within the range of one of the
excluded classes), who is a citizen of
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 be allowed to fix the
liiint of his own disloyalty, nor is it the
duty of the Board of Registers to do so.
file ideais, 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
deavoring 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, he left his readers
in quite as much “painful uncertainty”
us he found himself. Naturally enough,
he concludes that municipal officers are
not, and the better opinion is that
‘■County officers” are not, though with
regard to them the Attorney General
reserve his opinion for another occasion.
Give us the extracts, and then ‘‘we
shall see whip, wo shall behold. I'-—Tal

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 board. Their assertions aro
false, as thousands of living witnesses (from
their own experience), can bear witness.
Bnt many will say, how are wo t# 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
yon may have already thrown away largo
amounts in their purchase. To such we
would say, try the lteparator Capilli; it
will cost you nothing unless it fully comes
up to our representations. If yonr Druggist
does not keep it, send us one dollar and we
will forward it, post paid, together with a
receipt for the monev, which will be re
turned you on application, provid.ng entire
satisfaction is not given. Address,

skin white and clear as alabaster. Its use
cannot be detected by the closest scrutiny,
and being a vegetable preparation is per
fectly harmless. Jt is the only nrtioie of
the kind used by the French, and is con

a perfect toilet. Upwards of 30,000 bottles
wore sold during the p»st year, a sufficient
