O' With feastiugand music the swift Wdments flew, ' Till midnight apptoached, andt*e bride and her groom, • j f After bidding their friends and ictmpan ions adieu, Retired—together of course—tfi their room. y There her beautiful wreath and a gossa mer veil \ On the top of the bureau she alrefully laid, Then placing her dress, with its Big silk en trail, Jr O’er the back of a chair by tl ||sulc of the bed. W And then one by one—but I esn’i tell the name 1 . Os the various garments embroidered and white— Nor the feeling that over the young hus band cornu As he sat and observed her disrobe for the night. But many a brilliant illusion I ween, The possession of such a position dis pels To a man who has heard, but never yet seen That wonderful process, the peeling of belles. I So John felt, on seeing those jieautifut curls, Those glorious masses of brlglt golden hair; And tho teeth he admired-Affiby were whiter than pearls— \\ All laid in a box that she pi (led on a chair.

From her checks came her plumpers, which, lust she should lose ’em, She placed in her toilet box, too, with the rent; Then swiftly detached the full, palpitant bosom Her lover so fondly—so blindly—had pressed. Then site placed on the chair the huge cushions she wore, When the husband were still more than ever non-plussed, To see what he never had wittnessed be fore— A fair woman's hustle abreast of her bust. Then touching a spring that was bidden somewhere Ilcr lower limbs parted ptecisely in halves, , And she laid on the ifitar—l mean ofi the chair; — Her last sacrifice, a pair of fat calves. Her dissection completed, s le plunged un der cover, Like a lath that might into a rivulet drop ; Then tenderly asked of her motionl'.ss lover, “ My darling, how long do you mean to sit up ? ” “My dear, I’m quite undecided," he said, “ What course in the case would be pro per and fair— To follow the fraction that got into bed, Or stay with the part that is piled in the chair! ” J.

Letter of Advice from the Governor to Managers of Elections. Executive Department, State of Georgia, Atlanta, Pbcbuber 7th, 1870. To the managers of Elections: The fundamentahehanges which in the last few years have been made in, our laws, together with the ftpt that a mode of holding elections, altogether new in this State, is adopted by the act ot October 3d, 1870, have led me tff think it not un wise to call the attention ot the managers of the approaching election to.the follow ing considerations: The qualifications of voters is l now reg ulated the 2d and 6th section of tho 5d Article of the Constitution of 186& All other laws upon this subject are supiS§cd ed by the Constitution. ' These sections are as fbllows: Sec. 2. Every male person, born in the United States, and every male person who has been naturalized, or who has legally declared his intention to become a citizen of the United States, twenty-one years old, or upward, who shall have resided thirty days in the county in which lie offers to vote, and shall have paid all taxes which may have doen required of him, and which he may have had an opportunity of pay ing, agreeably to law, for the year next preceding the election, (except as herein after provided,) shall be deemed an elec tor; and every male citizen of the United States, of the age aforesaid, (except as hereinafter provided,) who nmy be a resi dent of the State at the time of the adop tion of this Constitution, shall be deemed an elector, and shall have all the rights of an elector, as aforesaid : Provided, That no soldier, sailor or marine in the military or naval service of the United States, shall acquire the rights of an elector by reason of being stationed on duly in tins State; and no person shall vote, who, if cnalleng ed, Bhall refuse to take the following oath : “ I do swear that I have not given, or re ceived, nor do I expect to receive, any money, treat, or other tiling of value, by which my vote, or any voto is affected, or oxpcctod to be affected, at this election, nor have I given, or promised any reward, or any threat, l>y which to prevent any per son from voting at this election. Sec. 6. Tho General Assembly may pro vide, from time to time, for the registra tion of all electors, but the following classes of persons shall not bo proniitteu to register, vote, or hold office: First. Those who shall have boon con victed of treason, embezzlement of public funds, malfeasance on office, crime punish able by law with imprisonment in the Pen itentiary, dr bribery. Second. Idiots or inganc persons. You will each of you, before opening The polls, take the eat b precribed ■by the act of October f, 1870, for tho election managers, copies of which will be handed you by the Clerk of the Superior Court, to whom they will be transmuted. The hours of opening and closing the polls remain as before, to-wit: they arc open at the court-house at 7 o’clcli, a. m., and close at op. m. They arc opened at other places of voting ot 8 o’eiock, a. m„ and closed at 3 o’clock p. m. You will keep three lists of voters and three tally •beets, and you will number each voter oh the list as he ousts his vote utlil arnu.bor the ballots lie leasts with the snme number as his namo on tho list. Codo, sections 1819 and 1815. You will not permit any person to be hindered or delayed on casting his ballot by challenges or questions, as this is pro hibited by the act of October 3, 1860. As you will perceive by the opinion of the Attorney General, hereto, attached, this prohibition of challenges docs not repeal section 1103 of the Revised Code authoriz ing the managers of election io administer to any person offering to voto, an oath as a test of his qualifications. If, therefore, you have reason to believe any vote offer ed to lie illegal, it is your duty to adminis ter the oath prescrilied. ns modified by tlie law changing the qualification of voters. This ought not to lie done unless you, in good faith, suspect the vote to be illegal, and should not ngrec among yourselves, a majority sitting will, as on other ques tions, control the action. At least three managers must at all times lie present to receive a vote. The only taxes required by law to ltc paid to qualify a voter are the legal taxes for the year 1860. The last General Assembly having de clared the poll tax of that year, and of no poll tux is due from any person for Upon each list of voters you will place a certificate, signed by yourselves, that it is a true list of the voters at the election held at , in the county of , on the 20th, 21st and 22d days of December 1870; and upon each tally-sheet, you will certify that it is a true tally-sheet of the result of the polls of , on the 20th, 21st 22d days of December, 1870. If your place of voting be not the court house, one of your number will carry the list of voters, tally sheets and sealed pack age of ballots, to the court-house, and, a majority of the managers at said court house, make out a consolidated return.— You will bo careful that it shall appear plainly in your returns, what is the name of the persons voted for, how many votes he has received, and for what office he was voted for. You will receive from the Clerk of the Superior Court blank forms lor your re turns. , You will make two packages, each con taining a copy of your manager’s oath, duly executed: one tally-sheet and one list of voters from each voting place, and a return of the result of the election, signed by a majority of the managers at the court-house, and one manager from each other place of voting. One of these packages, with the scaled packages of tickets, you will deposit with the Clerk of the Superior Court, directed to him. The other package you will transmit to the honorable, -the Secretary of State, David G. Cotting, at Atlanta, directed to him in his official capacity. The act of October 3, 1970, clothes you with large powers for the preservation of the peace and for the protection of peace, able voters, and you are responsible for the faithful, honest and impartial perform ance of this duty. Indeed, if any citizen is molested in the peaceful exercise of his right to vote, the public, as well as the in jured man, will have good cause to lay the blame upon you, since your duty is plain and your powers ample. I respectfully suggest that you take extra pains to fully carry into effect all the provisions of the act of 1870 in this respect. The act of Congress of May 81, 1870, a copy of which will be before you, contains heavy penalties against cither citizens or officers, who unlawfully obstruct any voter by reason of his color or previous condi tion, or who shall, by force, bribery, threats, intimidation or other unlawful means, in terfere with his free casting of his ballot. Section 5 of this act is in. these words; And is it farther enacted , That if any person shall prevent, hinder, control or in timidate, or shatl attempt to prevent, hin der, control or intimidate any porson from exercising, or in exercising the right of suffrage, to whom this right of suffrage is secured, or guarauteed, by tbo Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, by meansof bribery, threats, or threats of depriving person of employment, or occupation, or or ejecting such person from rented house, lands or other property, or by threats of refusing to renew leases or contracts for labor, or by threats of violence to himself of fami ly, such person so offending shall be guil ty of a misdemeanor, and shall on convic tion thereof, he fined not less than, five hundred dollars, hr be imprisoned not less than one month, and not more than one year, or both, at the discretion of the -«purt. TiUo act of October 3, 1870, by author- and. - requiring all especiiilPF tn rtay* ml To prevent more than one voter to ftpfirdA*h at one time, nearer the polls than fiftefe*. jf honestly and thoroughly enforced, will go far to secure to all perfect freedom in vo ting as they desire; this, upon your oaths, you are bound to see done. A fair election is not only a right and proper thing in itself, hut the present cir cumstances of this Stato make it of very great importance, not only that the elec tion should be fair, but there shall not bo even a suspicion of unfairness, and especi ally that the large class of our people w ho have only lately become citizens, shall be perfectly free in casting their votes. Very respectfully, Rusts 11. Bullock. Executive Department, State op Georgia, • December 2, 1870. lion. H. P. Parrots, Attorney* General : Sik: The act ot October 8, 1870, for holding an election on tl)c 20th, 21st and 22nd of this month Itave received different constructions in two particulars. Ist. It is contended that section 12 of the act is inconsistent with paragraph 3 of section 1815 ot tho Revised Code, which requires each ballot to be numbered; 2nd. It Is contended that ns the act of Octolier 3, 1870, prohibits challenges at the polls, the power given to the managers in section 1908 of the Code to require at their dis cretion any suspected person to take nn oath testing his qualification, is repealed. Ab it is* of Importance that their should be no uncertainty upon either of these points, I desire your opinion upon them. - Very respectfully yours, &c., * R. B. Bullock. Opkicb attobney-Genkbal, State op Georgia, Atlanta, December 3,1870. Uit Excellency It. B. Bulloch. Gov., the.: Sib : Your note of the 2nd inst., asking opinion as to the proper construction of the election iaw of October 8, 1870, is at hand. The only portion of the act of Oc tober 3, 1870, which can bo considered at all inconsistent with the part of section 1,815 requiring the managers to number the votes is section 12, which requires one of the mrfnngenf to redetVn the-ballots, and another to deposit them in the box, saying expressly about the duty of numbering them. As, however, the managers’ oath, as well as scctioa 23 of the act, in express lan guage, keeps of force all former laws not militating against the new act; it seems to me very’ cleur that (he duty to number the votes still remains file law. I come to this conclusion the more readily because the prohibition of challenge makes the duty to number the votes of the greater importance, and it is hardly to be suppos ed that the intent of the Legislature was to repeal it, in tin; absence of express lan guage to that effect. 2. The power given to the managers to require any suspected voter to take the oath is given by the section 1,303 of the Code, wholly irrespective of the rights of of any citizen to challenge, and is not in my opinion taken by the denial of the right to challenge. Indeed the act of October 3, 1870, by implication reserves this power to the managers, since it makes it. their duty to refuse the ballots of certain classes, and implies therefore a right to administer the oath. This oath prescribed in the Code must however necessarily be modified by the changes made by the Constitution of 1868, in the qualifications of voters. As so mod ified it is as follows : “ I do swear that I am a citizen of the United States, (or that 1 have made a dec laration of my intention to liecome a citi zen of the United States,) that I have re sided six months in the State, and 30 days in this county ; that I have paid all tuxes which have been required of me, and which I had an opportunity to pay agree ably to law, for the year 1889. and that I am under none of the disabilities prescrib ed by the Constitution of 1868. So help me God.’’ With great respect, I am yours, &c., H. P. Farrow, Attorney-General. IMPORTANT. The Constitution of the State,as well as the act of March 19, 1869, makes it illegal to sell intoxicating liqnors on election day. The act of 19th March, 1869, prohibits the sale within one mile from the town or precinct where the election is held, on pain of fifty dollars fine, or imprisonment in the common jail. It will be your duty to sec that this law is enforced; your oath requires you to endeavor, in good faith, to carry into ef fect the laws for holding elections.’’ It you know or hear of any violations of this law, at any time during the days of the election, it will be your duty to cause the parties offending to be arrested ; aud as often during the day as the offense may be committed let the law be enforced, as each sale is doubtless a separate offense. The act of 19th March, 1879, is as fol lows : An Act to carry into into effect Section 8, Article 2, of the Constitution of this State. Section 1. Be it enaetod by the Senate and the House of Representative* in General Assembly met , That from and immediately after the passage of this act, if any person shall sell intoxicating liquors on on elec tion days, at or within one mile from the city, town or precinct where elections may bcjheld, he shall be guilty of a misdemean or, and, on conviction thereof, shall be fined in a sum not exceeding fifty dollars or imprisonmeut in the common jail of the county not exceeding ten days, or both, at the discretion of the court, for each and every offense. Sue. 3. Repeals conflicting laws. Approved March 19, 1869. VOL. V-NO. 32 Illegal Voting. December 1,1870. Editor» Chronicle <2 Sentinel: It is a well-known fact to every One 'that the Legislature at its last session, in order to strengthen the Radical partyin the ap proaching election, passed an act declar-’ mg the poll tax assessed for the years 1868, 1869 and 1870 unconstitational. Now, will this act render those parties elligible as voters who have heretofore failed to pay the poll tax assessed, or will they lie subject to.the pains and penalties of those who vote illegally ? Ai opinion on this subject in the colums of ,«n able journal like the Chronicle <9 Sentinel would be read with pleasure by an Inquirer. Editors’ Note.—The question pro pounded by our esteemed correspondent is a very important one, and not without some difficulty to its .q.vttugr, solution. The oath required.by law of votera. whcn ballots are cintfleaged, compels them to thatthfijr “bare paid all legal taxi's wfnk* .vave been required of them, and whien they have had opportunity of pay ing according to law." The qualifications of voters fixed by the new constitution is in the same wordß with the addition of the clause “ for year next proceeding the election.’’ It is true that the Ackerman bill passed by the last Legislature, under which the coming elections will lie held, declares no vote shall be challenged for any cause. If this part of the law is enforced by the managers of elections no oath will lie ta ken by persons who apply to vote, and hence no indictment for perjury could bo found or sustained against those who vote without having paid their taxes. The Constitution, however, fixes tho qualifications for voters, and although no oath may be taken, yet the party who votes illegally is liable to indictment and con viction under the provisions of our Code. No legislation can repeal or annul this provision of the constitutiou fixing the qualification ot voters. The lost black and-tan menagerie which recently con cluded its session at -Atlanta evidently felt this, for while making no attempt to change the constitutional qualifications, they sought, by the bill referred to by our correspondent, to avoid the requirement in regard to the payment of "all lcgul tuxes,” by declaring that the poll tax as sessed by law for the yeara 1868-9 and ’7O was “ unconstitutional.” The Legislature has no right to declare the action of another Legislature uncon stitutional. They may repeal the law-- they cannot construe it. The courts alone can pass upon the constitutionality of the laws. The fhet, then, that the Legislature hsmdeclared the poll tax levied for the mHs named unconstitutional does not re lieve the voter from the requirement of the constitution that he “ has paid all legal taxes for the year next precceding the elec tion.” If a person cast a vote in the next election who has not paid all legal taxes for the year next proceeding the election he is liable to indictment for illegal voting, the punishment for which, if convicted, is imprisonment in the Penitentiary. If upon trial for such illegal voting, the de fendant should read the immunity grunted or sought to be granted in the late act re ferred to, the court before which the trial is lmd will pass upon.the “constitutional ity ” of that enactment. Wc are clearly of the opinion that, not withstanding the passage of the act de claring tho levying of the poll tax uncon stitutional, every person who votes in the coming State election who Ims failed to pay all taxes which have required of him, and which he has had an opportunity of paying for the twelve months proceeding the election, will bo guilty of the offence of illegal voting.— Chronicle 1 1 Sentinel. The Governor's Bigop.st Sluicr op Extravagance.—ln 1870 the Legislature incorporated in the appropriation act, what is known ns section 23d of the pre sent act. It authorizes the Governor, in all cases of service or labor, whose com pensation is not provided for, draw his warrant for Buch a sum as may seem just. Gov. Brown never drew a dollar under it. The Legislature usually gives the Gover. nor a contingent fund of $20,000 from wich to pay all such claims, and this lias generally been found more than ample. Where,there were extraordinary expenses beyond this fund, Governors have waited and referred the matter to the Legislature. The result has been great economy in the use of the contingent fund, and a very rigid adhesion to law in all matters per taining to the public money. This classic India-rubber section hag licen shamelessly abused by Governor Bul lock. Governor Jenkins spent but $7, 412 18 under it, and this in carrying out of the previous Legislature. The amount spent bg Governor Bullock under that action, almost equals in enormity of criminal extravagance the clerk hire of the Legislature. He has literally squander ed and thrown away the people's money. Up to May the 18th, the amount was $232,- 780 18. The amount of May 1870, the amount paid was $71,840 80. Since then, SB4, 810 84 has been spent under this sec tion. Taking the amount spent in May after the 18th, we have nearly three hun dred thousand dollars spent by this econo mical Governor for what jrrevious Governors have never disbursed a dollar. The details of this expenditure are sick ening. One item alone will do for a sam- Ele. Some $1 ,600 was spent in paying A. . Morris, and other railroad hands and their compeers, for services in ilegally or ganizing the Legislature, when these men, most of them, were drawing pay from the State for what they were neglecting. We tell the people to vote for no man , who is the friend of this most diabolical Bullock faction ; and, fhrther, to voto for no candidate for memtxir of the Legisla ture who will not pledge himself to help out the third section of the Appropriation aet, that is made the' cloak tor such reckless waste of the people’s money.— Atlanta Constitution.
