ery of the value of a negro woman, who es
caped while in charge of the defendant, in the
month of July, 1864. 11. W. Hilliard, for
plaintiff; Hook & Carr for defendants.
This case came into court Wednesday moru
ing, before Judge Gibson, and is noticeable
from the fact that one ot the pleas made in de
fense was, that,in July, 1804, the negro was no
longer property , by reason of the operation of
tho proclamation of emancipation by President
Lincoln, which took effect January Ist, 1863.
It was ably arirued by defendant’s attorney,
Judge Ilook, that the court and the jury hav
ing taken the amnesty oath, wherein they
solemnly swear to “ abide by and faithfully sup
port ” that proclamation, they were bound to
flud for the defendants.
The Court ruled, and so charged the jury,
that the proclamation did not take effect in
this State until after the emancipation declared
by tire Georgia Convention in November, 1865.
The case then went to the jury upon the
evidence of facts, independent of this plea, and
the jury falling to agree upon a verdict, were
discharged and a inis-trlal entered.

Give ’km Rope.— Attorney General Stan
liery’s latest opinion, a telegraphic abstract of
which we published, says the Lonisvile Journal,
yesterday, will be apt to bring about a July
session of Congress ; for we suppose that the
Radical leaders will hardly acquiesce in his con
struction of the militaryJaet. It, indeed, is not.
exactly the entertainment to which they invited
the South ; and, being the masters of the feast,
thoy no doubt will have the tabic set anew,
under the direction of their own Butler. Let
them go ahead. All they want to hang them
selves is a little more rope; and a July session
will supply it. The South can afford to view
tho contingency with perfect complacency.
A New Railway Guide.—Mr. Geo. Wads

and Memphis. This wholesale dissemination
of valuable reading matter will conduce to the
good of advertisers’and all who wish their busi
ness extensively circulated would do well to
give him a card for publication.
Registration in the City. —We arc inform
ed that the Registers appointed by General
Pope, under authority of the Military Act, via:
Dr. B. F. Hall, Samuel Levy, Esq., and Robert
Harper, will open their oflleeiu this city, nt the
City Hotel, on Monday, the 24th inst. Ample
timo will be given to all who wish to register
their names.
We learn, through'the Dalilonega Signal, Hint
a young man named Russell, from Chicago,
was killed in Dawson county a few days ago
by the falling of a cave, while working in an
open cut. He was represented as being horri
bly mangled.
In Memoriam.— This is a splendid picture,
embracing the artist’s conception of the fall of
the “Conquered Banner.” Mr. J. D. Browne is
the agent for its sale in South Carolina, out
side of Charleston, and in Augusta. He is in
the city at present, and we predict for him
great' success in disposing ot copies of this
’souvenir of the Lost Cause.
Important Matter.
M essrs. Editors : Where is aud was our Tax
Receiver and Collector last year? According
to their digest about four hundred colored per
sons resided, last year, in the city and county.
Nearly that number have registered as voters
near DeLaigle’s gate, from which I infer that at
least twenty-live hundred persons of color re
side lu the county. At three dollars each our
county and State treasury lost over six thou
sand dollars. Can there be any excuse for such
gross negligence this year, when an examina
tion of the registry list will furnish the neces
sary information ? Defaulters being subject to
double taxes, will make tbe snug little sum of
twelve thousand dollars loss to the State and
county last year by somebody’s neglect.
Equal Rights.
The suggestion of our correspondent is wor
thy the attention of the officers charged with
receiving and collecting the taxes. The law
of this State levies a specilic tax of one dollar
upon each and every male inhabitant between
the ages of twenty-oue and sixty years. The
county tax is 150 per cent, upon this. Whsu
this tax is due aud unpaid by any person who
has not property aud Is iu the employment of
another as a laborer, it shall be the duty of the
Tax Collector to serve a written notice on the
employer, specifying the amount ot tax due by
the employee, and shall authorise and bind
him to pay said tax from any effects or money
in his hands due the laborer or employee, and
execution shall issue, as in other cases for taxes
due against the employer for the amount.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES.
From Washington.
• Washington, June 20.
The conclusions of the President and Cabi
net, in reference to the interpretation of the
Military Reconstruction Laws, are stated in the
following proceedings, which are published by
permission of tip: proper authority :
In Cabinet, June 18, 1867 Present: The
President, the Secretary of State, the Secretary
of the Treasury, (he Secretary of War, the Sec
retary of the Navy, the Postmaster General,
the Attorney General, the Acting Secretary of
the Interior.
The President announced that he imd under
consideration the two opinions from the At
torney General as to the legal questions arising
upon the acts of Congress, commonly known
as the Reconstruction Acts, and that, in view of
the great magnitude of tho subject, and of the
various interests involved, be deemed it proper
to have It considered fully in Cabinet, and to
avail himself of all the light which could be af
forded by the opinions and advice of the mem
bers of the Cabinet, to enable him to see that
these laws be faithfully executed, and to decide
what orders and instructions are necessary and
expedient to bo given to the military com
manders.
The President said, further, that the branch
of the subject that seemed to him first in order
for consideration was as to the instructions to
be sent to the military commanders for their
guidance and for the guidance of persons offer
ing for registralidfc.
The instructions proposed by the Attorney
General, as set fortli in tho summary contained
in his last opinion, will, therefore, he now con
sidered.
Tho summary was then read at length. Ttie
reading of the summary having been concluded,
each section was then considered, discussed
and voied upon, as follows :
First—The oath provided in the supplement
al act defines all the qualifications required ;
mid every person who can take that oath is en
titled to have his name entered upon the list of
voters.
All voted aye except the Secretary of War,
who voted nay.
Second—The board of registration have no
authority to administer any other oath to the
person applying for registration titan the pre
scribed oath, nor to administer any oath to any
oilier person, touching the qualification of the
applicant or the falsity of the oath so taken by
him,' No provision is made for challenging the
qualification of the applicant or entering upon
any trial or Investigation of his qualification,
either by witnesses or any other form of proof.
All voted aye except the Secretary of War,
who voted nay.
Third—As to citizenship and residence, the
applicant for registration must be a citizen of
the State and of the United Stales, and must be
a resident ol a county or parish included in the
election district. He may be'registered if he
lias been such a citizen for a period less than
twelve months at the time in; applies for regis
tration, but lie cannot vote at any election un
less his citizenship has then extended to the
full term of one year. As to such a person the
exact length of bis citizenship should bo noted
opposite iiis name on the list, so that it may ap
pear on the day of flection, upon reference to
the list., whether the full term has then been ae
complished.
Concurrred in unanimously.
Fourth—An unnaturalized person cannot
take this oath, but an alien who has been
naturalized can take it, and no other proof of
naturalization can be required from him.
All voting aye except the .Secretary of War,
who voted nay.
Fisth —No one who is not twenty-one years
of age at the time of registration can take the
oath, for he must swear that lie has then at
tained that age.
Concurred in unanimously.
Sixth—No one who lias 'been disfranchised
for participation in any rebellion against the
United .States, or for felony committed against
tho laws of any Slate or of tho United .States,
can take this oath—tho actual participation in a
rebellion or the actual commission of felony
does not amount to disfranchisement; the sort
of disfranchisement here meant is that which is
declared by law passed by competent authority
or which has been fixed upon the criminal by
the sentence of the court which tried him for
the crime no law of the United States lias de
clared the penally of disfranchisement for par
ticipation in rebellion alone, nor is it known
•bat any such law exists in either of these ten
Slates, cxee.pl, perhaps, Virginia, as to which
will he given.
except the Secretary of War,
Who \ r . the second and third para-
to
from )i.ivWig held followed by partienpa
.f.iim in rebellion. This is Uie niAst important
pat t of Uni oiuh, and -requin's strict attention
to ai riVe at its meaning; the applicant must
swear or affirm as follows :
“ That I have never been a member of any
State Legislature nor held any Executive or
Judicial office in any Shite and afterwards en
gaged in an insurrection or rebellion against
the United States, or given aid or comfort to
the enemies thereof; that 1 have never taken an
oath as member of Congress of flic United
States or as an officer of the. United States or
as a member ol any State Legislature, or as an
Executive or Judicial officer of any State, to
support the Constitution of the United States,
and afterwards engaged in insurrection or re
bellion against the United States or given aid
or comfort to the enemies thereof.
Two elements must concur in order to dis
qualify a person under these clauses. -Ist.. The
office and official oatli to support the Constitu
tion of t.lio United States. 2d. Engaging after
wards in rebellion. Both must exist to work
disqualification, aml|mnst happen in the order
of time mentioned. A person who has held an
office and taken the oath to support the Fede
ral Constitution, and has not afterwards en
gaged in rebellion, is not disqualified; so, too,
a person who lias engaged io rebellion but has
not theretofore field an office and taken that
oatli is not disqualified.
All voted aye except the Secretary of YVar,
who votes nay.
Eighth —Officers of the United States. As to
these the language is without limitation ; tho
person who has at any timo prior to the rebel
lion hold any office, civil or military, under the
United States, and lias taken an official oatli to
support the Constitution of the United States,
iB subject to disqualification.
Concurred in unanimously.
Ninth—Militia officers of any State prior to
the rebellion are not subject to disqualification.
All voted aye except the Secretary of YVar,
who voted nay.
Tenth —M unicipal officers, that is any, officers
of incorporated cities, towns and villages, such
as mayors, aldermen, town council, police and
other city or town officers, are not subject to
disqualification.
Concurred in unanimously.
Eleventh—Persons who have, ‘prior to the
rebellion, been members of the Congress of the
United States, or members of a State Legisla
ture, are subject to disqualification ; but those
who have been members of conventions fram
ing or amending the constitution of a State,
prior to the rebellion, are not subject to dis
qualification.
Concurred In unanimously.
Twelfth —All the Executive and Judicial offi
cers of any State who took an oatli to support
the Constitution of the United States are sub
ject to disqualification, including county offi
cers ; they are subject to disqualification if they
were required to take as a part of their official
oatli the oath to support the Constitution ol
the. United States.
Concurred in unanimously.
Thirteenth—Persons who exercised mere em
ployment, under State authority are not disqual
ified, such as commissioners to lay out roads,
commissioners of public works, visitors of
State institutions, directors of State institutions,
examiners of banks, notaries public, commis
sioners to take acknowledgments of doeds.
Concurred in unanimously; but tbe Secreta
ry of State, the Secretary of the Treasury and
the Secretary of YVar expressed the opinion
that lawyers are such officers as are disqualified
if they participate in rebellion. Two tbiugs
must exist as to any person to disqualify him
from voting: first, the office held prior to the
rebellion, and afterwards participation in the
rebellion.
Fourteenth—An act to fix upon a person the
offense of engaging in rebellion under the law
must be an overt aud voluntary act, done with
the intent of aiding or furthering the common
unlawful purpose; a person forced into tbe re
bel service by conscription, or under a para
mount authority which lie could uot safely
disobey, and who would not have entered such
service if left to tbe free exercise of his own
will, cannot be held to be disqualified from
voting.
All voted aye except the Secretary of War,
who votes nay, as the proposition is stated.
Fifteenth —Mere acts of charity, where the in
tent is to relieve the wants of the object of such
charity, and not done in aid of the cause iu
which he may have been engaged, do not dis
qualify; but organized contribution of food and
clothing for the general relief of persons en
gaged in the rebellion and not of a merely sani
tary character, but contributed to enable them
to perform their unlawful object, may bo class
ed with acts which do disqualify. Forced con
tributions to the rebel cause in the lorm ot
taxes or military nssessmeut which a person
was con' icled to pay or contribute do not dis
qualify ; but voluntary contributions to the
rebell cause, even such indirect contributions
as arise from the voluntary loan of money to
the rehel authorities or purchase of bonds or
securities created to afford the means of carry
ing on the rebellion, will workjdisqualification.
Concurred in unanimously.
Sixteenth —All those who, iu legislative or
, other official capacity, were engaged in the
furtherance of the common unlawful purpose
where the duties of the office necessarily had
relation to the support of the rebellion—such
as members of the rebel conventions, Con-
cresses and Legislatures, diplomatic agents o;
lhe rebel Confederacy and other officials whose
: offices were created for the purpose of more es
fectually carrying on hostilities— must be held
to be disqualified ; but officers who, during the
: rebellion, discharged official duties not inci
dent to war, but only such duties as belonu
even to a state of peace, and were necessary to
the preservation of order and the administra
tion of law, are n«t to be considered as thereby
engaging in rebellion or as disqualified; dis
loyal sentiments, opinions or sympathies would
i not disqualify, but where a person has by
! speccji or by writing incited others to engage
In rebellion, be must cotne under the dmqualb
fleation.
All voted aye except the Secretary of War,
who dissents to the second paragraph, with the
exception of the words, “where a person has
by speech or by writing incited others to en
gage in rcbe.lion he must come under the dis
qualification.”
Seventeenth—The duties of the board ap
poiuted to superintend the elections.—This
board having the custody of the test of, regis
tered voters in the district for which it is con
stituted must see that the name of the person
offering to vote is found upou the registration
list, and if such proves to be the fact it is the
duty of the board to receive his vote if then
qualified by residence; they cannot receive the
voto ol any person whose name Is not upon the
list, though he may ho ready to take the regis
tration oath, and although he may satisfy them
that he wag unable to have his name registered
at the proper time, in consequence ol absence,
sickness or other cause; the board cannot enter
Into any Inquiry as to the qualifications of any
person whoso tiaroe is not on the registration
list or as to the qualifications of any person
whose name Is on the list.
Concurred in unanimously.
Eighteenth—The mode of voting is provided
in the act to be by ballot. The board will keep
a record and poll book of the election, showing
the votes, lists of voters and the persons elect
ed by a plurality of the votes east at the elec
tion, and make returns of these to the Com
manding Generals of the District.
Concurred in unanimously.
Nineteeth—The board appointed for regis
tration and for superintending the elections
must take the oath prescribed by the aet of
Congress, approved July 2d, 1862, entitled au

same Cabinet officers as on the 18th, excepting
the Acting Secretary of the Interior.
Tho President announced to the Cabinet that
after full deliberation, lie concurred with the
majority upon those sections of the summary
upon which the Secretary of YVar expressed his
dissent, aud that he concurred with the Cabinet
upon those sections approved l>v unanimous
vote ; that as it appeared the Military Com
manders entertained double upon the points
covered by the summary, and as their action
hitherto had not been uniform, he deemed it

iu a general order to the respective command
ers the points set forth in the summary.

Mark Downey and Tlios. B. YVliite, two well
known citizens, were arraigned before the
United States Commissioner this morning, ,
charged with perjury, in having taken the regis
tration oath yesterday.
The United States District Attorney said that <
in tho first ease the prosecution would tie on i
the ground that the State constitution, adopted
by the convention at Alexandria, disfranchised
all persons who aided the rebellion after April
1805. 1
This constitution, it is claimed, is not set
aside by the reconstruction bill. About hine
tentlis of the whiles In tbe State wil' be dis- )
franchised if the District Attorney’s ground is J
sustained. Both eases were eon tie Tied till to- -
morrow.

LUNG BALSAM,
Directions accompahy each liottle.
[Mothers should keep allbn’s lung
BAI-BaM at hand for uso In cases of Croup.
For Consumption and all pulmonary complaints this
BALSAM is the most desirable remedy over offered
to the public. Its action is expectorant, alterative,
Buporifle, sedative, diaphoretic and diuretic, which
renders it one of the most valuable remedies known
for curing diseases of the lungs. It excites expectora
tion and causes the lungs to throw off the phlegm or
mucus, changes the secretions and purifies the blood;
heals the irritated parts; gives strength to tlie diges
tive organs, brings the liver to its proper action, and
imparts strength to the whole system. Such is the
immediate and satisfactory effect, that it is warranted
to break up the most distressing Cougli in a few hours
time, if not of too long standing. It is warranted to give
entire satisfaction even in tiro most confirmed cases of
Consumption. It is warranted not to produce cos
tiveness (whicii is the cose witli most remedies) or af
fect tiro head, as it. contains no Opium in any form. It
is warranted to lie perfectly harmless to the most deli
cate child, although it is an active and powerful reme
dy for restoring the system. Thoro is no real necessi
ty ior so many deaths by Consumption, when
ALLEN’S LUNG BALSAM
will prevent it, if only taken in time. We would re
commend physicians having Consumptive pntients,
and who have failed to cure them with their own me
dicine, to give ALLEN’S LUNG BALSAM a trial.
Physicians of Cincinnati are now using it in their
practice with the happiest effect. It cures when other
remedies fail.
