Tho Books of Registration from the sev eral counties of the Stato have been re turned to the Superintendent's office in this city, and are now undergoing exam ination. Every one flunlllar with the ge ography of the State can readily Imagine the labor and difficulty attending this great work. In many of the romote coun ties, where educated bullness men ore not very numerous (and many of these dis franchised), one would suppose the Books would exhibit anything but good penman ship, to ray nothing of neatness and ac curacy. But to our astonishment there Is me a slovenly or shabbily kept Book among them. They are very models of neatness and accuracy. Col. Uvldert, tho Superintendent, has In this, as In bis other business relations, demonstrated his ability to judge of the Uuslncia habits and qualifications of men. His clorka have been selected from first- class men, as these Books abundantly show. Everything bean the mark of or der, neatness and accuracy. Soma of our Opposition brethren of tho press who claim that, In most counties, men could not be found qualified to do this work, and who an constantly sneering at the officers of the Government as “mean whites," might do well to visit the Super- lndent’s office and examine the Books from the several counties. They will there learn that the most Indifferently kept Books amongst tho hundreds there on file, would, for neatncsi and accuracy,do honor to tho counting rooms of our most respect able mercantile houses. Tho great busi ness talents and executive ability of Ool. IIdlbert luivo been strikingly demon strated In tho manner hi which tho whole work of Registration bos been conducted. Wheat.—Wheat was selling at *1 A3 yes terday In this market, and scarce.—CTatm- nooja (/slot, lOfA. SOOTHERS KEN SUPPORTED BY NORTH ERN CAPITA!,. When ono man receives favor at the handt of another, an obligation of some kind is presumed to follow. It may bo In law what is termed an Imperfect obliga tion—that is, an obligation the fulfillment of which cannot be enforced by law—but which Is, for Hist very reason, doubly binding, because It It an obligation of honor. Nor is Ibis principle of exclusive application In civilized communities. The ravage,,who knows nothing of tho forms and refinements of ctvlllztlon, fully un derstands and acknowledges tho binding force of such obligations. The Hindoo and tho Hottentot who foils or refuses to discharge such dobts of honor, Is thence forth held to bo Infomotis In tho eyes of his fellows. A prominent Now York merchant was once heard to remark tluit before tho war, he had rather sell a Southern merchant hill of goods at sixty days on his word of honor, than to sell the same umouut upon the same time on acecptablo bank paper, Tho reason assigned for this was, that, as general rule. Southern men were much more scrupulous lu tho discharge of ob ligations of honor than prompt In meeting their legal paper. In accordance with Ibis principle, seve ral of tho most prudent and successful A T ew York merchants, furnished goods on reasonable time to Southern dealers, upon their individual paper. In some Instances, notes were not taken; bnt the amounts were entered in tho form of running ac counts, based upon tho promise of the debtor.to make reraitUinres monthly, or oftc-ncr. according to his ability. In this way, hundreds of Southern merchants, who bad been left prostrate by the war, wore enabled to resume business. Two' successive years of famine follow ing close upon a devastating wsr, rendered It Impossible, in many Instances, for these obligations to be mot; while In somo cases, mere adventurers—without any settled habitation or practical knowledge of the business—succeed In obtaining credit.— These latter never Intended to discharge their liabilities, If by any possibility, they might avoid it. And It is this class of men, by tho way, who have been so bitter In thclrscctlonal feeling, and who, It would scorn, thought It excusable to swindle Yankee" out of a few thousand, because that “Yankee” by contributing to the sup port of the war for tho Union, had been Instrumental In making him poor! In this way tho credit of Southern mer chants hoi been greatly impaired. There Is no longor that willingness to extend them favors which prevailed In 1803. This is well known to most of oar merchants.— Tiro reason la obvious. There Is another thing ‘which Southern morehants and business men, although or dinarily shrewd and astute, do not seem to understand, but which we happen to know Is doing them groat Injury at tliu North. Human nature is essentially tho same everywhere. If you habitually denounce man as unjust, cowardly and tyrannical In his political relations. It Is hardly natu ral that ho should regard you as a friend. If you Impress libn with a belief that you consider him your enemy, he Is very apt to place the same estimate upon you that you do upon him; and nothing is more unnat ural than for a man to extend favors tn an enemy. We have observed—and it Is becoming a theme of remark at tlio North—that many of those men In this section who are under the greatest obligations to Northern capi talists, are among tho most bitter declaim- en against tho Northern peoplo. Mon who have profitable agencies for Northern houses and corporations are not (infre quently the most unrelenting In their seo- tlonal animosities. They denounce, tn the bitterest terms, those whose capital fur nishes them with profitable employment f They are uncompromising In their hatred of tlio adherents of Congress, notwlth, standing those very adherents may be their greatest benefoctors. Now, It does not follow that because one man la thus laid under obligations to an other ho must act the hypocrito and pro fess what ho docs not believe; or that he must abandon his manhood and hkve no opinions of his own; bnt It la expected that ho should tie tolerant, and not de nounce as an enemy the bencfoctor who cannot consistently adopt bia mode ef thinking. Congreu, two-thirds of which Is the law-nuJelng power, In cate of a dif ference bctw&'u it and tlio Executive, la but the representative-of tho Northern people. Ametig those peoplo—and promi nently among them, too—are men who furnish cmpl^ment and the means of liv ing to thousands of Soutborn men. And yet, strange to ray, tlio very men who are the recipient! of these fovors are tbo most Intolerant and abuaive of Cbngraaa and the Northern people. la this right? 1a it ex actly honorable? ALABAMA, We an glad to find that the Bepubllctn* of Alabama are appreciating tho Impor tance of the election in that State, recently ordered by Oeneral Pdrg, and have gone towork lu earneit. Their organization la for advanced, and the greatest seal to com, plete the wdrk la manifested In all aeetlona of the Stato. The quiet, yet effective policy pursued by General Pore and hts subordinates, will aeon furnish the people of tlio Third District an opportunity to accept the Congressional plan of Reconstruction. The foot that lie gave Alabama an opportimlt)’, as soon na registration was completed, gives assurance that no delay will be permitted In Georgia. We urge otir friends, therefore, to bo up and doing. Hioy will be recreant to their principles If they delay acting. Public Interests de mand vigilance • and we will act as das tards should we' foil to soeoud tho efforts of the authorltes to return the State to the Union. ORB. FOFR IN WASHINGTON. A gentleman of this city, who was tn Washington a few days since, when clam, era from certain parties In Georgia for Geuerel Pope's removal were tn numerous, states that all such suggestions were re celved there with derision.

Grant in taking Stanton's place. There can he no military obligation on a Genera to assume a civil office. Grant might have refused, and thrilled the country, to the confusion of the President and the rebels. Snell a refusal would have been a notice that a patriot Uko Stanton should not be struck through lilm. It would have boon a notice also to tlio rebels tliat they coult have no hope through him. Now Is the time to speak out for our country. Every Presidential order signed by Grant Is an enoouagement to tlio old rebel spirit. But white at the War Department, Grant lx la a certain sense, a “stop gag.” He keeps a rebel ont of the office. But Grant Is habit ually so taciturn and reserved tliat it Is difficult to know bis real position. I do not know whether he Is looking for the thatk ‘ Presidency; there are thing Took that tion la that we are left In harrowing un certainty with regard tu his opinions. Can wo afford to be in any uncertainty on this mint? I have from the beginning been nslitlng on Irreversible guarantees. JOHNSON AND IMFEACnMBNT.
