A* nfiiliiiif ku now commenced
in Georgia, wo cannot refrain from
■nh' f np«*o «*e 17 chiaen, wbo ia not
di'franebiaed. Urn doty of regiateriK*,
nn<l '.hot qualifying Itimaelf to take
part in the coming election. 1 here it
no orcaaioa lor oetug the suffrage in
the in tercet of any party, nor dace
registration invoice any complicity with
existing or proepective party organira
tions. The bill distinctly provides that
those entitled to register thafi be 'au
thorised to vote, and every man wbo
loves our noble old State, and wishes to
preserve her civil inatituliooa, nod save
at least a remnant of her ancient glory,
should avail himselt ol the prescribed
mode of retaining the right of aafftage.
There ate many, who.;oppressed with
a sense of the injustice olthe bill, and who
despair of the future on account of the
radical changes it imposes, have
declared a purpose never to vote again.
Snrh a course is positively inimical to
the best interests of the State, and no
man can be regarded a good citisen
wbo thus voluntarily sinks into incivism,
and refuses to aid his fellow citiaens in
a government under which
he and they are to live. Such a course
voluntarily surrenders the destinies of
the State into the hands of strangers,
ndvtntorers, and the ignoiant class who
have no experience in governing them
selves or others- *
The census reports show that if all
tbe while citisens of the State register
who ran do so nnder the law, they a ill
be sufficiently stiong, with the intelli
gent Marks who will act with them, to
control the destinies of the State.
There is, therefore, no excuse for re
fusing to register, and no good citizen
should refuse to do so. Indeed, by
refusing to register, it seems clear to us
that a man forfeits the character of a
good citizen, for he voluntarily refuses
to a>d in preserving to his race the
right to control the political fortunes of
the State, to which their combers—if
no other consideration—entitles them.
Refusal of white men to register
strengthens tbe chances for inflicting
upon Georgia tbe reign of terror which
prevails ia Tennessee, wher# bestial
Brownlow, and bis besotted minions,
white and black, rule with a rod of iroo.
We, therefore, renew onr earnest
. appeal to every man who can conscien
tiously do so, to go forward at once and
register, and resolve on every occasion
to exercise the right of suffrage thereby
secured.
We would further advise all who have
negroes in tbeir employ to make no
effort to prevent them from registerin'.'.
They are entitled, nnder the law, t<>
register, nnd any attempt to take ad
vantage of their ignoiance, or to prevent
them from enjoying the new boon con
ferred on them, will be sure to be seized
upon as an excuse for delay in our re
storation, or for further exactions. Tbe
experiment of negro suffrage is opon
ns—we cannot prevent it if we would,
and our policy should be to aid in every
possible way in so enlightening the
negro as to enable him to vote intelli
gently. Show him that he need not
depend upon the agents of the Govern
ment, or upon strangers for protection
in this right, or in any other—show him
that his true friends are those wbo have
been reared with him, and that we are
anzions to see him advance in tbe scale
of intelligence and prosperity. To this
end afford him a fair chance to register,
and inform him freely and fully of all
bis rights under the law. Such fair and
considerate conduct will not fail to se
cure from tbe negro a continuance of
tbe kindness and fidelity manifested by
him, as a race, through the trials of the
past, and to render him a safe and vain
able ally in the progressive struggles of
tbe future.
An Extraordinary Article—What
Doe* it Kean ?
The Constitutionalist baa an article
on the “Registration Game,” which ia
worthy of notice. The editor calls
espec al attention to ihe fact that the
registration notice is published only
twice, and the last notification is given
on the day registration commences.
The deduction be makes is, that it is a
deep laid plot to engineer the whites
out of their Totes, by giving such
inadequate notice as to leave them
generally unaware of tbe time and
place for registration, while the blacks
are “manipulated by tbeir fuglemen,”
and all registered.
The idea that the negroes can be
made aware of registration, and can
leave their farms and homes for one or
two days to go to register, while few
white people will be aware of the time
and places of registration, appears to
as a supreme absurdity. And the
assumption that the negroes and their
manipulators have facilities for knowing,
and going to, places of registration
which tbe whites do not posses, implies
if it means anything, that the “luani
pulatois” and negroes are working,
while the whites are sleeping over tbeir
rights—serenely following the dignity,
do-nothing, know nothing advice which
has been so industriously circulated
among them. Tbe Editor ia tbe last
man to complain of the results of his
own teaching.
The truth is, the Registrars were not
obliged to meet.at any points save the
four election precincts of the countfi
and yet for the convenience of the people
they give notice that they will meet at
oine different place*. Thi* doe* not
look like a pwrpoee to keep anybody
from registering. Moreover tbe law
provides that after registration is closed
at the appointed plate*, the Registrars
shall meet three days at the Court Hoasa
to allow those who have foiled to
register s fairshaoce to do so.
Bat while the editor affects such
indignation at the alleged purpose to
prevent white men from registering,
he nob here urges or advises them to
register, bat conclude* his extraordinary
tirade with the following inflammatory
appeal to “oxomn.”* The italics and
small cape ere his: .
fk* first and paramount iuig it to
organise. There is no time to rplit hairs
or chop topic; we moat act mid act at
one*. The second doty of evt y man is
to enert himset/uiisel/tshfy and persist
roily to admonish his country friends of
the conspiracy against them and slir
them up to the great work before them.
Let the Cotton go to gross and weeds, if
necessary; it is foolish to look at it
despondingtg while the feed men are at
obscure registration precincts striding
against you and laughing at your
delusive security. Let the county be
scourcl far and near, and no stone left
unturned to spread the proper informa
tion. Neither Cong ess nor Mililarfi
Governors nor Registrars, eapeci a 'fair
and square coldest,'' as they pretended.
If Congress, as all men know, has
raised the banner of fraud, it is stupid
to anticipate generosity or impartiality
from its creatures.

TSR COUNTRY PIOPLR ALL ABOUT. Bs
COMPACT; RR WART ; RR RRSOLVEO. The
Suprrmb bocr mas comb, and we owe it
to onr State, our families, and our
race that a telling blow be delivered
against the adversaries of each and all.
What this ingeniona appeal means
we era at. a lose to understand. If it
means go and register, it is a very
round about and obscure way of saying
it; bat if it means something else, it is
of the highest importance that it be
understood. The article is certainly
violent, indiscreet, and mischievous.
It is calculated to convey abroad the
impression of some conspiracy for a
resistance to the law—a madness which
we cannot believe the editor intends
to counsel.
The law provides who shall register,
and we ern conceive of no sense in
which those who register under the law
can be. in the exercise of the right to
register or vote, the “adversaries of our
State, our families, or our race." We
can readily understand how such in
flammatory writing may atir ap atrife
between families end races that may be
most fatal to the peace of society.
The Continental Bailway.
To Samuel Tate, Msg., President Memphis
and Charleston Railroad.
The Continental Railway, of which
we hear so much talk, will commence
at the extreme north east at Halifax—
and passing through Bangor, Portland,
Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Balti
more, Washington, Lynchburg,. Knox-
ville, Cleveland—thence to New Orleaus
by a triple route —and from that point.
to Houston, Texna, and tapping the
Pacific, either at Mazatlan or Guaymas,
ur perhaps both, some 3,350 miles in its
eutitety.
Between Cleveland and New Orleans
the di ret and shortest line is by the
Dalton, li'itue, and Selma Railroad, and
thence by a trank line to New Orleans.
Branching at .Cleveland, the northern
cord' of this trinity goes by Chatta
nooga and the N- E. and S. W. Rail
road to Elyton, thence to Mobile, inter
secting the trunk ling to New Orleans
above, a little South and Westof Selma.
While the Southern cord leaves the
main line at Dalton and goes to At
lanta, Montgomery, and Selma, or
dividing at Montgomery, goes through
to New Orleans by way of Mobile,
some 1.800 miles. Nearly two thirds of
this great railway are in operation
to-day, and short spaceß both in Maine
and Alabama arc being rapidly filled
up. This is the shortest route across
the continent—is tangent to the Gulf
of Mexico and the whole New England
coast—embraces every variety of soil'
and climate, aud will associate many a
different race and character in its busi
ness operations.
The Charleston and Memphis Rail
way, and its extension north and west
ward, now being nnder auspicious
consideration, will cross the Continental
nt right angles, intersecting the Three
Ply at Atlanta, Jacksonville, or therea
bouts, and Gadsden, or rather a few
miles north of that point. The bearing
of the Continental is south, 45 degrees
west ; wb.ile from the Charleston and
Memphis north, 45 degrees west; and at
Memphis a slight angle more northward
to an intersection with the Union
Paeific, at Topeka or somewhere in that
vicinity, say four hundred and twenty
five miles from Memphis.
These two lines will form the
‘‘GREAT SOUTHERN CROSS,”
and will become in time the great high
way ot the world’s commerce, securing
to the Southeastern States their due
influence and position among the
untions of the earth.
Tbe short gap in the Charleston and
Memphis Road, from Atlanta to
Decatur direct, say less than two
hundred miles, is the first step in
closing up this route, and measures are
already being taken for its early accom
plishment. The shortest lines to tbe
most distant places, is a good motto lor
railroad builde ra in this progressive age
Consolidation, concentration, and coOp
eratioo, are words of good meaning in
railroad management.

more cotton from India than from tbe
United States. During the five years
