Several plans in reard to registration were submitted ml discussed and the committee deidedthat: "The most important reidt of a registration must (>e that each nd every elector would be required to :ive a local habitation and a name." The committee then speak of the iflioultics attendant upon the proper filiation of the sutTrage^as practised y the negroes. i hesc dilh'-ulties arise j oni a variety of caiiseS?the constant j lflisjre of residence, the fact that many ; ogroes have two names (that of the ? n-mer ma$teJ'/?*d that taken by the eirro himself). and the ?jrrcat similari:"in tlieir facial appearance. These rcumstances have rendered it easy ?r the same individual'to vote more 1an once, under ditferent names and | t different poll:n<r-places. To remedy the evils just mentioned, ie committee have decided to recotniend a scheme of permanent reijistraon, that is to say: a registration by Inch. when a name .is ojice entered \ poll I lie register, it will re nain there j nti 1 the death or removal of the elec- j >r: in which latter event tlie elector; ? be required to have his name trans-; rred to the register of the county or j reeinct tv which he removes, and in ! u *-ase of an v removal. even within | ie same preriuct, that he be required j i inform thenronerolHcer and to have is register and certificate altered ac>rdin;rly. . . .
