e Registration.
Our State exchanges, says the Char
lotte N. C. News. are I.retty muth ex
cited on the subject of registration, and
arc shedding vials, not of wrath but
of ink, in urgent advice to the non
disfranchised to be sure to have their
names written in the book of political
life. Now we think there is no necessity
for all this. We take it for granted all
arc going to register. The importance
for doing so is fully understood and ap
preciated by the great mass. Our peo
ple are determined "to keep step to the
music of the Union.''
We say let registration commence as
soon as practicable. Vote Conventic s
send delegates that wll incubate the
C;onstitu1tionu that will once more take us
back into the "giorio us Union-so called.
We have been out in the cold long
Luough. Caa't General Sickles just
Gen. Wagener-Immigration.
It will be seen eseiere that (eI.
John A. Wagener intends visiting oui
town and will thus a Ford our citizens an
opportunity of conversing With him on
the subject of Immigrati,n, - rubject of
the deepest importance at this juncture
in our afrirs, and with v.hich every one
shoud make himself fully acquainted
and take the liveliest interest. The ac
tion now taken will dc-de' the future of
our State whether for pros.erity or not.
Other sections of the State are awaking
the great importance of this subject,
and are leginniag to see that the advan
tages which will accrue from Imniigra
tion are of the most deci;'ed character.
Other States have taken hold of the mat
ter with energy and determuin:ation, and
must reap the fnits of their fo:esight
and enterprise, in a large agricultural
pros;erity. Let not this State then, nor
this District show a backwardness in a
matter of such vital moment. Gen.
Wagener is identified with our interests
in this movement and is doing a vast
amount of business, and has proven him
self fully competent and fitted for the
work. It is earnestly hoped the citizens
generally will give this matter thought,
confer with him during his stay, and 've
ready to take a step forward in this pro
grcss toward future independence and
prosperity. Old things must be done
away with, we want new labor, new
methods, new svstens, ere we can. lift
up from the slough of despond.
[For the Herald.
'Erskine College.
We cheerfully gice place to the sub=
joined commucation. The cause of educa
tion is one-ef prior importance. "Erskine"
has a good name ; and we trust, now
that the College is re-established, its
prosperity mIlay be unbounded
Ma. Enrroa: Knowing that you feel
an interest, in all that pertains to the
welfare of South Carolina and therefore
in all hcr~Litcrary Institutions,- we beg
permis:;ion to say a word in your col
umns, about 'rskine (one of the oldest
Colleges in the State) and her app:oach
ing Commencement.
Suspended, and .greatly crippleCd du
ring the war, Erskine is-alive again and
doing what she can in the great work of
educating tbe youth of the State and
country.
The number -of stu~dents the first year,
has been. small, compared with former
years, but the exercises have been regu
ularly kep.t up, and a number of ,escel
lent young men have been receiving the
benofits of the Institution.
There is no senior elass and hence there
wvill be no regular cornmencemer t, but
still at the usual time, the second Wed
nesday -(10th) jn Juily, -the College
will celebrate its Anniversary. There
will be ani Exhibitian of the Sophomore
-class, ny order of the Board of Trus
tees, the faculty will confer the degree of
A. B. on the class of 18th1; most of whom
left the College for the battle field a few
mn'nths be'ore the time of Graduation.
Diplom:s will be given to such of the
class as inray -be present. In addition to
the above exercises the Annual Address
of the Alumni Association in ill be deliv
ered by Col. R. A. Fair, of Abbcville.
The-undersigned have been appointed
a Committee by the Board of Trustees,
-to inv-ite the- fdiends of the College gene
raHly, the miembers of the class of 1861,
and all the Alumr.i of Erskine to -come
up to the Anniaal Feast.
We feel-that the bare announcement of
-this -invitation is enough. A -remiem
brance of the good done in the past by
the Colfege'is enougb~to make her friends
willing to rejoice wi'h her, in whatever
mneasur-e of prosperity ishe now enjoys,
Kn.d to help her in her efforts at recon
structio- r.
Those who are left of the class of 1801,
wil be glaid to meet again~on tX-o old CAl
!ege grounids and mjugle their tears over
the rcm--ins of thefalen; and receunt-he
sorrows of the f ast si years. The fac
iihy invite themA to cotue up and -receive
their Diphm:as, -so~ long deserved, but
which could niot be bestowed umil the.
present. .And the Alumni; they,.-too,
ar-e invited ; -a feast -is to .be speelaliy
provided for them--a rich feast-a kast
of good- things; Gentlemen, lay aside
for one week at least, th.e cares and busi
ne-ss of the hour ; comre up and laugh to

P. S. The regular annual commence
ment of the Due West T'emaie Colleze.
will take place next day, July 11th.
Gen. Haskeli of Abbeville, will deliver
the Anniversary Address.
It is understood in official circles that
the Attorney-General, in his opinion just
prepared, holds that the reconstruction
Acts providled for two governments
military and civil; that both are provis
ional and to be obeyedi; but to cease
when the reorgan;zation of the State
Governments take place. lie also takes
the position that the iliitary is only to
protect all in their rights of personal
property, and for the p)reservation of
order and the supprecssion of violence
and crime. Tkhere is no authority in the
law for removal, by the military comn
mnander-, of the proper officers of the State,
neither executive nor judicial, or the ap
pointment of their successors. The mail
itary commnander is not authoi ed to de
stroy, but is bound to protect, civil offi
cers-a military commirander being re
garded as Conservator of the peace, and
niot an abrogator o2 the laws.

For the :ew berry ilerald.
:-For the firt timei ir
uany da s, I recently took a ride on the
Greenville and Columbia Rail Iload, travel- G
ing up as far as Anderson C. 11., l herc I n
passed a few days most agreeably with mv
kindred, and old friends, some of whom I
had not seen for many years, an- made the
acquaintance of others, wh,oso kindness I
wish long to. remember.
Ni:eteen years have clpsc,d since I lrst
vsited Anderson. At that time, I was a
participant in the cerc:nonies used in the I
(1 dica-ion an-1 or:c i .: of Ilimn i Lo o fe of
A. '. M. It was in the month of .I:ne, 0::
a day which I well remember was rost
beautiful. Tie town was filled With citizens
of its own and of the surroun,ding di.tricts. 0
There were men, vour and old, a
mnaid_ns :mI iatrons in gre at m;iber_. i
There nas a doge. and grand proccssion of t
-and a fine address delivered to, the
masons on that occasin. After which,
they sat down to a magnificent dinner, that s
had been prepaired for tIhem at Benson's r
iIotel, a place proverbial in those days for m
its canvas back ducks, and delicious mince
pies. Oh ! the recollection of the good f
things enjoyed then; the peace and plenty i
seen everywhere. The rememberance of t
the joy and happiness seen beaming from
the eves of all who assembled on the even
ing of that gala day, to close it with mirth, !
dancing, and n.usic, fills me with sadness, o
while contrasting it with the present. Alas !
how ninny of both young and old, who
participated in the festivities of Lhat day
have passed away aind literally returned to
dost. How many who lived in the enjoy
ment of homes, of comforts, and in afiluence,
then and since, have been hurled by fate
and ioul wrong, into the lowest deptis of
sf sorrow, misery and poverty. And y t, I
we are told to kiss the hands that placed I
us there. May God forgicc tcm, and save
us from the humiliation.
Anderson, of course kept pace withl th.e
most. flourishing towns of the State, and is
greatly enlarged and improved conipared 0
with what it was at the time of my first n
ilt. The people there, as everywhere
througliout the Southern country , are in
timlidated; business, paralyzed. A spirit ii
of gloom and uncertainty hangs heavily t
upon many, if not all, and so it %%il reinai,
until G dd itm his goodness, lifts thde burdens
that op ess us Which I pray He my do,
ere the Teather is added tl;at nav crush us c
for ever. - a<
The wheat ero w-being harvested and,
I am pleased to 3sy I did not see a single'
field that was not considered exceUent. i
The corn- and cotton senmed sma.ll and p
backward, the nid'ts had ger:era-lly been
too cool for the cott on. I noticed however.
Iquite an imnprovemtent in the appearanice of b
nthplnt. ini one field, afi er two warmn)
niht, ndthe rays of> a ot e-lcar sun of tihe Ii
hiterrening dhay had rested upon it.
Flour had fallen to twelve dollars, and i
ICOrnl in proportion, butt a much further andti
Ispeedy decline is anticipated. .Ini looking Is'
over my letter, I find t.hat I have left out a 4
matter which alone prompted mte to write
adopted by those who travel on rirase
in these days. I found nothing tnc-u or un
usual on the ptat-of the conductors of 1h e
IG. & C'. trains, who hive always been, and tI
ever wHi be kind and courteous ge-ntlemen,
Ibut it was of the <-urious conduct .of a nma
Sjority of the passengers f ountd in theecar asb
I walked in to inhe mys-at; -tt arrival of t
the train at Behton.
I don't think there were mtore than six or
eight passengers in the car when I ente. ed,
but eche one had rev ersed th6 bhack of a C.
scat', so that they could ocey four, sit- r
ting upon one-i. e. twvo--':::h their' feetp
resting upon the two opposite. This did.
not start be me munch, for I had see-n thit
same thing~ do'e befo, but imnagine my it
surprise, when, after walking fromt one of t
the cars to the other, I found a bundle,
package or band-box, stick, valise or umn. P
brelia upon nearly, if not quite ev-ery otne of tr
the seats not othet-wise occnpied, I at once|p
conclutded the traitt had a lull load, and'
that most of the passengers had gone over
to the break fast house. So I watchcd L"
rather imnpamtiently for theht: ~rctur. Now, b
how many do you think carne from th at
house and claim~ed a seat, well, just two;
two and no more. You can ilnagine~ - wthj c
what "phtealings",-a a celebrate d athor l
wrote I removed th:e ob'stacle, itt thme sha pe
of a bundle-, and took a seat- Soon' after,1
the train moved on, and I looked over to 1tc
my opposite neighbor, who occupied four u
seats with his person as aforesaid, with his
vaicon thte se.it immecdit--ly behtind him,
anrd his ov ercoat on the one in frant, thus
taking" p eight seats. Now at the next
staticu, I saw this individual deliberaitely
direct an oli gentlemtai--who had etered
the car, antd-mas uabont to take one of these
eight seats--to a Nat some dismace off 0that
had uponR a package Th4ongn: to another
individya iioecutpying four seamt, who in i
tu:n ask the old nian to seek one eswbere.
I fetI very n-eh prmvok. dI and 9:ite indig
nlLt, fnd felt jast then'ithat if the~ eoni
*ductor hail been present I would . ha-c t i
Jasked him.,aloud if the comipmyv, by new a
rules, provided a ear for each parseuger.
But the conductor was not in ju~t then, andi
I permitted miy indignation to cool down,P
mfer lo-khing 'again at. the -uge oporationso
of m-ry neighbour. Tile old gent!eman had
found a seat and seemed comfortahle too,
so. 1 concluded to-let the matter drop, which
I will do for the second time, having caIped b
it to..y-our attention. I vill add but a word t
more and say, that 'tis au pity, that people
- who are so selfish and JIoISIn, oonid not t
have a cattle ca.r set apart on eacht train for b
their especial benefit. -It
Maxmnuax.-ltis said thtthe wife w
of the Prince Sahn Salmn, who is an a'
American lady, and closely related to
President ,Johnson, has made her way
alone to President Juarez at San Lnis to
intercede for her husband's life and that mi
of the Emperor. This lad'y has sped so
far on her brave mission that at Qutere- ;
taro, on her arrival from San Luiis, on)
the 25th, she, the Emperor and Prince
Slm Saint had a long interview with th
Escobedo, and there is reason to believe
terms were arranged by which the lives .
Iof most of the foreigners will be spatred.
RrcisTanvrtox Is Tils Svar.-Judg'e ot
IAldricht, in a~ letter to tihe Mer cury', a
Iurges that every man in the State who b
can register his name shouild do so. HeI
says:

and unless tie privilege of voting is se- th
cured by registration, the power of the .\
country may be seized by designing and

to secure this high privilege. If a man
