To-day is the last day of regietration. If
you have not registered, it is a duty you
ewe your country, your family and your
own best interests to not let the registration
close to-day without seeing your unseen-
rolled upon the list of voters. If yon have
had any doubts as to your right to register,
investigate the snbjeet at once, and When
satisfied that yon are not disqualified, assert
your right and insist upon being admitted
to register. If, by negligence or indiffer
ence, yon should forfeit your right to vote
in the coming election—the most important
ever held in the State—you may have cause
deeply to regret it.
It will be sees' by General Meade* dis
patch, received here yesterday, that having
held a commission in the militia previous to
the war does not disqualify a citixen to
register.
The only reasons ineligible lb registration
or to hold office, as stated in tbe reconstruc
tion law" of Congress, are pemons Who,
“having previously taken an oath, aa a mem
ber of Congress, or as an offirar^-of the
United State*, or as a -member of any State
Legislature, or aa wn executive or judicial
officer oi any Slate, to support the Consti
tution of ,the United States, Thill have.en
gaged in insurrection or retMiliou against the
same, or given aid or comfort to the eoemita
thereof.”
The 6fh section of the supplementary- get,
passed July-19th, 186L- declares that “the
words ‘ executive or judicial office in any
State, shall be oonetrued to include all civil
officers created by law for
of any general law of a State, or for the nd
ministration of justice.*”
This is the law on the aubjeot eeeet forth
in Gen. Meade's order N°- 52,, pul
the 6th inst., and by which any
determine for himself whether ha is, orla voter* toys:
not, entitled to register as a voter.

VOTRD TO PRPRlVa TUX FREKDMkn OF THE
right TO mold orrtaf, a fight enjoyed by
all *fcite citizens. We call tbe. attention of
our colored citizens to this fast, and in or
der that they may entertain no doubts on the
enlgeet we give them the history of the ac
tion'of tbe GoovedUon on that question.
In Convention, on tbe i3th of February,
the Franchise Article of tbe Constitntiou
being under consideration, tbe loih section,
giying the right to hold office to “all quali
fied electors” or voters, (of course including
negroes,) qame up. It reads as follows:
‘‘All qualified elector*, and uoue others,
shall be eligible to any office in this Stale,
unless disqualified by tbe Constitution of
this State, or by the Constitution of the
United States.”
Mr. Harris, of Newton, moved to strike
out tbe section.
Mr. McCay, of Sumter, moved to insert
after the word “electors,” “citizens of the
United States who ean read and subscribe
tbe oath of office." The Convention ad
journed without action.
February 14, thd question again came up.
Mr. McCay withdrew his amendment, and
the vote was taken ou the motion of Mr.
Harris to strike out the section altogether,
and thus leave the negro out in the cold.
Singular enough, most of' the negroes were
cheated into the folly ot' voting lor the mo
turn. The yeas and hays were taken, and
the section of tbe Constitution making aii
qualified electors, without distinction cf race
or color, eligible to any office in this State
defeated by a vote of 129 to 12. Among
those votiug to htrike out the section and
thus render the colored voter ineligible
to hold office, appear the names of RUFUS
B. BULLOCK, carpet-bag candidate for
Governor; J. W. CLIFT, carpel-bag can
didate for Congress, and CHARLES H
HOPKINS, scalawag candidate tor Mayor.
The list of ayes comprises all the white
radicals in tho Convention, most of whom
are candidates in their several districts and
counties lor the offices of tbe State, with the
colored members of the Convention who
were artfully deceived into voting for a
measure which, by tbe orgauic law excludes
their race from ever bolding office in the
State.
This appropriation of tbe spoils of office
by the white carpet-baggers and scalawags
reminds ua of tbe anecdote of the white man
and tirn Indian who divided the game after a
hunt The pair had been upon a latigneing
hunt, in which they had agreed to go shares.
The Indian being j the best banter killed a
fine turkey, t whilf the white mau had,
with tbe Indian's assistance, killed
oat squirrel. 1 Besides, tbe white
man imposed ipon the Indian the
labor of carrying/the game. When they
reached borne, where they were to divide
the game, tbs white scalawag said: “Well,
Incas, we dtdnt get much, but as we are
good friends I'll be fair with you. You can
take tbe squirrel and I’ll take tbe turkey, oi
l'll take the turkey and you take the squir
rel.” The Indian scratched his head and
hesitated, not being dearly satisfied with
tbe fairness of tbe arrangement. “How you
make ’em ?” he inquired. : The white man
repeated bis proposition. The Indian still
couldn't See it. “Eh, eh,” grunted the un
sophisticated son of tbe forest, “You say
turkey to me no time. ”
So with tbe Radicals. They are. the
especial friends of the poor freedmen. They
are on a wild hunt for plunder, and they are
perfectly wilting that the negroes shall do
the voting and they lake tbe offlees or that
they shall have ihe offices and the negroes
do tbe votiog to' elect them. As the old
Indian'dNOTWPipod never to bunt anymore,
with that white man, so we think the
hie oolored citizens, when they discover the
cheat that has been practised upon them
under"pretense of (Special friendship, will

From all quarters of the State we have
most gratifying accounts of the enthusiasm
with which the nomination of Gen. <$>rdon. <
is received tty all classes of our peo^e. iA 1
triend in Clinch coanty having obtained from
the author a copy of the foUOwing iettQr sjqptt
it to us for pnblication. There are thousands
oi true men in the State who will heartily
approve the sentiments of the writer:
Homersvillx, Clinch County, Ga.,
April. 8th, 1868.
Gen. J. B. Gordon :
My Dear Sib: The intelligence of your
nomination for Governor was hailed with de
light in this aectionof Conntry. I have just
returned from a trip through several of oar
adjoining counties, and am most happy to
ioform you that uot one dissenting voice was
heard during my absence. Your noble con
duct upon tbe field <if battle white leading
yonr tueo gallantly to the charge; a public
manifestation of your deep and abiding In
terest in tbe welfore of your men and Gen
try, have secured for yon the lasting admi
ral ion and esteem of every true patriot *
Georgia. Their appreciation of yonriateg-
rity and ability wiU soon be manifested .b)
conferring upon yon ihe highest-honore d!
the State. If the same spirit and determi
nation exist throughout the rest of tike State
yonr success is as certain as ibe eoming ofday,
and the odious Constitution now presented
for ratification, will be voted down by au
overwhelming majority. 'lTie people are,
indeed, fully aroused, and not unmindful of
the patriotic doty, which they have to per
form, iu watching over and protectir-g, ac
cording to their opportunities, the precious
deposits of the public liberties. They well
know that the perils, which now surround,
both the State and the Republic, were never
of a more serious character, than they are
to-day ; and, hence, every effort now made,
by these wild, ruthless fanatics, to subvert
the Government, and destroy the Constitu
tion of our fathered will be promptly sod vig
orously checked by their sovereign rebuke.
Tbe rentorai ion of oar once happy Go
vernment, io its original <parity; the
establishment of peace, prosperity
and happiness throughout the land:
the perpetuation of liberty, tbe Constitution
and Democracy, should be the aim of every
man who loves, his country, and is not in
different to the Welfare and happiness of poa
tcrity. To accomplish so desirable an end,
is the object of the great Democratic organi
zation oi tbe State. Most fortunate have
we been, in the selection of one, jus the
champion of our rights, so universally ad
mired by the people of Georgia. The con
test is, indeed, a struggle for liberty against
vile tyrunuy and despotism ; for a white
man’s gt»v« i ament against negro domination.
Upon you, in tbe event of yonr success, is
bung our last, lingering ray of hope, yea,
the very salvation of the State itself. Judg
ing from your past, wo moat cheerfully sub
mit our all into your bands, fully assured,
that your future political career will reflect
as brightly, upon the pages of history, as
have your brilliant successes, in onr former
noble but unfortunate struggle for liberty
and independence. In conclusion, dear
General, allow me to extend to yon ibe as
surance of pur unanimous support, in, the
coming election, throughout this section.
Truly yours, ; J. I* If.
Gem. Gordon and She Colored Ppeple.
It may not be uninteresting to the colored
people of Georgia to know something of the
past history of this gentleman toward them
selves. . ,
Daring the latter part of 1866, the colorVfL
people of Georgia, were building a ehurch i
a school-house for themselves at Brunswick,
where Gen. Gotten was then residing. ^Gen..
Gordon contributed quite liberally to aid them
in their work.' Tn the . early part of 186t, he
was a member of the Grand Jury of that
couuty, and advocated a pro rata distributioiF
of all the funds raised in the county for edu
cational purposes, between the white and col
ored people of the county, each to have
rsfe schools. He also introduced a resolution,
which pasBed the Grand Jarj, appointing e
coramittee'to eolicit front Northern people, niff
for the. purpose of educating the colored
people of hie county.
Ilia no answer to this rote to lay that the
Conseaffon preferred to ignore the queetion
and tears the whole matter totba Legisla
ture. They Ad wot ignore it. The right of
no to hold office wat reported ait part
..... Constitution, and they voitd it down—
struck it out- In other words, dtnied the
right. They oould have s-curwf the right,
beyond ttoe reach of the Legislature, ,by pot
ting it tn Ihe Constitution, but they refused
lo. it, excluded the negro Iroui office.—
io getting round thtt fect, and now
we leave them in the hands of- tha people
whom they have basely betrayed. / . -

Executive session aud adjourned.
Mr. Odrtis was listened h throughout with
marked atteutioo, espeeiaiy by tbe members
of the Court. Some of his points were
startling. He left it srith tbe Senators
whether they were acting in a Legislative or
Judicial capacity. The, substance of the
first on which the light diarges were based,
'"tat; the removal <f Stantoa and the
ituteot of G m. Thomas was, and was
intended, aa a yio'ation of tbe Tenure of
Office Aet and the Coustitttion.
H* denied both propoaiions, and among
other authari{tef quoted the statements of
members of .the Conference ComdiUtee.
Schenck ia makiog report to tho House
uaed the words “term of wrvice.” It might
aa well be Skid that a Kiijg completed the
of tile term of his predecessor who had died
as to say that Mr. Johnson was ^serving'oot
.Lincoln's form. Mr. Curtis proceeded,
showing that tbe heads of departments were
the voice and bauds of the President. He
argued that the heads ot departments did
But, in fact could not, constitutionally come
withio the Tenure of Office bill; that
their exception was well uiderstood by Sena
tors, and noticed the abawtiity of charging
the President with a high crime and misde-
meanora for acting in accordance with the
pnbiicly-expressed views of Senators. The
argument that the President's action was in
accordance with the Constitution is toocom-
S iict in it# elaboration for condensation.
Ir. Curtis arguing the necessity of the.
pawSr claimed by the President instanced
Floyd's diaplacemeot by President Buchanan,
where delay would have fed to deplorable
results. Arguiog the President's duty to
maintain bis constitutions! prerogatives, be
said a truHiee would combat on unconstitu
tional law which worked injury to those
whose fights he bad iq trust, and it was
mnch more the President’s doty to guard Lbe
trust placed io his hands by all the people.
Such was the duty nobly fulfil ed by Hamp
den when he opposed tbe payment of ship
money. 1
In recapitulating his arguments to prove
at the President could uot be impeached
for an act designed io procure a judicial
decision, be quoted Butler to show that the
managers admitted this view, who said the
removal in itself was perhaps not an im
pt-acbable offence, if made with that
motive and nut accompanied with a defiant
message to tbe Senate.
Mr. Curtis said it was a matter of taste
bow they should be notified, aud argued the
rales of estopel; showing that the things the
President had done and said on these mat
ters did not apply in this case.
Gen. Shermau listead to Mr. Curtis' speech.
The. Congressional Executive Committee
declined taking steps to ioduce Holden to

race. The alleged cause of inaction
was the .absence of many members.
They say that 0r. Peter Bayne, the ne

admitted to the privilege of the baltOt; aud
at a time, too, when the General had,
