Wo think thio is wrong, Halbert took too coni tract for registering and putting through tho colored population aooording te tho Gherman-Shellabarger. It was puroly n business transaction. Hulbert is a business nan, not n politician. He has aarried ont .his contract in splendid style.

In nil departments of business, Mr. IL baa hitherto been successful. First as a railroad man; then a* chief of the Express; and lastly, as register. As an exprea man, ho woo always popular; and daring the war, hia favors to sol diers were numberless, and the liberali ty of tha Company amounted in many instances to lavish generosity.
