S csS"c,fty ^jP considered thosc,<5lau9es o? t ie*"
r^onjtriiction Acts of Congress which desig?
nate who shall register, and who on the other
nand^-ir disfranchised. It is difficult, nay
impossible, ipx?any one uuL^ulLoaucJ, to cleat*
up beforehand all doubtful points that must
arise in the course of the execution of these
lawsc 6ur exposition of these Acts-may-satisfy
our^Ve^butlt may not be acceptedly others
who aro..equally concerned. All who have
. any reasonable doubt about their right to rcgr
ister, will do well to apply to the Board sitting
at their precinct, who, doubtless, have thp
necessary instructions and are competent to
decide in thc case.
Much has been said about the charge of pon
jury impending over any one who was connect?
ed with the "rebellion" and now proposes tp
register. We already stated yesterday that
tbe oath of 1862, the so-called iron-clad, pub?
lished in General Orders, No. 65, (Fcrm 1), ty
required only of the registrars-those who
compose thc. Board of Registration-and not of
citizens desirous of registering-i. e.. of enrol?
ling their names for thc purpose of exercising
the privilege of tho elective franchise ; and ijt
is so stated in the Order, the caption to t li ifs
oath (Form l)-being "oath prescribed formerai- J
berS of Boards of Registration."
The "oath prescribed for voters" {Form li iii
G encrai. Orders, No. 65), requires that a candii
dato -fer registration shall swear that he ip
twentyrone years of age,- has "not been disj- I
franchised for participation in any rebellion or
civil war against the United States, nor for
felony against the laws of any Stale or of tbp
United States." As regards the latter clause!,
we believe there is no disfranchisement
under the Constitution of this State for felony], j
There may be many, however, who still enter?
tain doubts as to the meaning of the former
part-of this sentence: "How (b> I know," sav I
some, "whether or not i have been disfran- I
chised for participation In tho rebellion ?" Ip I
answer to which we would state that Congres^ j
has passed no laws disfranchising any one for
participating in thc rebellion against th?
United States save the Reconstruction Acts we
reviewed yesterday, the disfranchising clausj? j
in which applies only to such citizens ad have
held certain officers, Federal anti State, an?
afterwards engaged in rebellion. Of those wt
spoke yesterday; and he who registers ha? iy J
take the oath that he has hold no such office!
and the disfranchising clause therefore cannot. ?
refer to him. In Missouri, Tennessee, and, wf j
think, also in Maryland, laws have beera
passed by the Legislature disfranchising all I ]
who have bwn connected with the'cause of th? I (
late Confederate States. But there is no law I ]
of this kind in operation in South Carolina j I
if?h?,' eh passant, we may'state our belief that if j .
our 'people will be true to themselves and ti J
their interests such laws will not and cannot be f
.passedin this State.) No one, therefore, whd j j
has not held Office before the war need hesitate I (
af this portion of'tho lt
He is next required to swear that he has I
'.never been a member of any Slate Legislaj
turo, nor held any executive or judicial office I
In any State, and afterwards engaged in insur-j I
reotion or rebellion.against.the United Slates,
or given aid or comfort t > the enemies thereof j J jj
that he has never taken an oath as a member
of Congress of the United States, or as an offi4 j
cer.of thc United States, or as a member of anyj
State-Legislature, or as. an executive or judicial [
officer of any State to support tho Constitution f
of the ?nited States, and afterwards engaged] I
in insurrection or .rebellion against the United q
States, or given aid or comfort to the enemies ^
thereof."
M 81
At the risk of being deemed tedious, in re?
peating what wc have said .again and again, wejl
will again state that no -one is disfranchised*! .
limply fat-ha-ving1 bren- cngagEfT in rebeliionM *
against the ?nited States, nor is any one dis-'L
franchised because he has held any of the oili- j
jes above mentioned. Ile must have held some ^
jnc.of these offices, and thereafter also engaged!
in rebellion;..these two circumstances must be ^
wmbined to disfranchise any one. - This seems .
dear, beyond any possible chance of miscon
*Ption' li,
The oath, finally, requires that thc applicant .
"or registration swear that he "will faithfully ?
rapport the Constitution, and obey the laws of .

nirselves Io it already in the amnesty oath we w
ill, or;'nearly ail, took ai tho conclusion of the
ate. war.. . .
' We have now shown who is excluded from
'egislration. ' In the estimation of Governor
lau, this class does not comprise much over > ^
wo .thousand in .South Carolina. Counting '? S(,
he number of white voters in the State at forty
hous?nVi, there would still be nearly thirty
light thousand entitled to the privilege of re- ; ^
?isl ration, every one of whom, we hope, will j ^
.vail himself of it. For it is a duty, no less ! ^
naff a privilege, everyman owes to himself,)
o his clirtdrcn, to his neighbors, and fellow-j j
itizens, to his State, hit^country,- and his- age. gQ
)f this privilege die must- ?vail- himself now;
his duty he must discharge now; for he may ^

ucstions, lhere should be no difference among .
s in regard to the propriety, the absolute and ^
ital importance of everyone to register who ?

GOVERNOR PERRY'S LETTER.
Govornor PURRY-has written another letter
hieb wo-published a day or two since, andj
link even his warmest friends must re
ret. For putting nside all the political issues
lvolved in the < j nest ions of emancipation and
uiversal suffrage, surely what was once a com
i.unity of Christian slaveholders, who earnestly
ad faithfully strove to discharge thc duty
hich God imposed upon them, will protest!
gainst any such theory as this: "The dum
rinse* has nQt much further progress to make
? become a negro, than thc negro has to be
)ino.Ja white man;" although it maybe
rowed by the "most learned and scientific mit
rnlist thc world has every produced."
Durt^ the long struggle, in which wc main?
lined against thc world, that slavery was a
?vine institution, how often did we appeal to
te improved condition of the negro, and boast'
mt of thc rude and heathen savage wc had
adc a contented and^f hristian laborer; and!
icrc was no theme upon which the Southern
itlpit. was more eloquent than thc touching rc-?
(ion between masters omi slaves, who labored
irougli their allotted spheres in this life, stis-i
?ned and comforted by that faith taught by al
iglier even than AGASSIZ. "For by one spirit'
c arc all baptized into one body, whether wc.
;.Jcw or Gentile, whether webe bond or free.";
hat the capacity of the negro is inferior to,
iat of'.he white mab-that he has never con-'
meted a government-nor invented a ma-!
line-nor written a poem-that helms always'
?proved when associated in subordination te]
e white man, and never has improved when
ft to himself-that, kept in slavery for two;
nturies, he has neither the education nor the
ental habit to enable him at once to make ?j
dicious use of political rights, is true enough,|
d proper enough, to urge as a consideration

Drnor admits, it HoincT diluted forougu the
strainer of a Congressional speech. That the
various races of men differ essentially in their
eltaracteristics, in nerve, brain, blood and bone,
maybe vcrjfifrue,TB'ut sTTM OBSt cTdS?rl?io leavlte
tlie difference between tho lowest race of men
and (he Liighcst race of mere animals, nn im?
mense difference in kind. And it docs not fit
all affect thc question how fur the lowest race
of men arc fit for thc exercise of those political
duties which thc State ?eqtiircs. That is sim
plj aT?lUe%'ion ot pplitical experienced and thty
Governor PFRRY ia himself obliged iq admit.
IT his argument as'to Ih?'inferi?rify of th?
race means anything, it means that such , infe1
riority unfits thc negro for political privilege ?
and yet he claims as evidence of his wisdom
and liberality, "immediately after it was known
that slavery would have lo be abolished, I exf
pressed the opinion that ix would be wisc and
prudent to permit negroes, who had acquired ?
property and educational" qualification, lo voti!
in all the Southern Slates." Now what bc
comes of this inferiority of. the race, if .thc indi?
viduals of the race can acquire such "a properly
and educational qualification," as makes i
"wise and prudent"' to 'permit?'-'theiri -io vote '
But without dwelling upon- this most importan
portion of the Governor's argument, we mus.
express our doubts whether, now that th<
freedman has given him. the right of suifragc
it will either aid him in its wholesome exer
eise, or impress him with the mental and mora
superiority of the white man, to compare hin
to "owls," "jackasses," or "buffaloes." .
Tho Governor declares that "it i? a sad anc
melancholy reflection on human nature to 1 se?
men who inaugurated the war, and were goinf
to die.in thc last ditch, now seeking to go bael
into the Union stripped of every principle anc
right whicli they vowed to defend, with Blacl
Republican ppllars around their necks." ' Nb\i
the Governor may chpo<e to use J Iiis .sort o'
language for thc purpose of declamation, bu
he knows that so far from "seeking to go back
into the Unioq," wo are in the Union now-irj
it hard and fast-without even the poop dela
sion that wc once entertained that we could*
leave it when wc would. The question is
whether we will remain in it as we arc, wit li
out recognized rights or represcntutiun, by wil
\y?, comply, w'itji. the .r?quisitions of thc Becon
ilructjon Act, hard as they, are,,and regain ou
rights and representation under whatever Con
stitutfon we may find existing? ff, to borrovtj
his own phrase, we must not "go back sf ripped]
if every principle and right we vowed to de
fend," let the Gqvernpr forbear rhetoric,.,and
'ell UB. really when .he expects to see slayer^
re-established, and the right, of secession rc
?ognized. For if we have not entirely misun
lerslood our own conquest, these were tlt?
jrinciples we voyyed to defend. We would alsrj
isk the Governor how he can expect Genera
IA.MI'TON, or:).ny others, to influence the vot?
if the freedmen in the face of the natural lavin
at ion that not only his policy but his language
mist provoke ?
It seems that there arc three parties into!
vhich this State is divided. . . .
1. Those who, having' failed lo achieve tho
mrposes of the war, see nothing in thc futuro
ut ruin; who say to the United States : Wa
annot see that we were wrong in thc contest;
rhich is ended; we arc conquered, but not con-j
?need; use your power, do. with, us what you! I
rill, but do not ask us,to.take part in agovern-i f
lent io whioh we can never bear true all?
iance. The honesty and deplh of Ibis s?n(i-j|
tent wc respect, but ?he oply practical course
>r those who feel it is exile or uncomplaining
lbmission to thc will of the conqueror.
'2. There is another extreme, men without]|
rinciple or .sent i incut,.who would disavow thc
|L?-4u4?r---ef-+Tre Htfctfcywho would flatter -thc'
cgro and fawn on the radical, and who hope,'
y degrading the State, to reduce it so low!
tal they will be fit exponents of its policy and j
orthy representatives of its character.
8. But there is a' third parly, men who bc-?|
eve that they were right in that terrible .sir ug?
le in which they suffered and sacrificed, but j
ho, having done all that brave men could do,
ive accepted as final the decision which they
ivoked. Men who look with doubt and nppre- !
?Misi?n upon the changes which ?the war has)
rought, but who feel that it is their duty to|
nd all their influence to make tho9c changes j
i harmless as good faith and s omni judgment !
in make them. Men who intend to do nothing ll
ean or dishonorable, but to give new laws j
id new institutions an earnest and hopeful
tpport. Men who. know that the policy of |
irty changes with thc hour, and that the
leniy of to-day is the friend of to-morrow;
at the passions of a great civil war^wbsidc j|
?rely if they subside slowly; and that the'
aterial interests of a great nation prcsoribc
riffs' beyond'which even fanatioitfm cannot ?j
.ess too far. Men who feel that South Caro?
la, is still their State,by the lies of ancestry, ;
r tho rights of property, by the sacrifice of i
ood in thc strength bf n ' living affection,
bo will not desert her iu this her hour bf J
rest need.
To this parly wo belong; and vye joined it at !
c advice of Governor BEIIUY, who, .before lie ;|
id read. AoASflfSi and . Sir- CHARLES ? Lacou.!
cond hand in tho pages of Mr. MOHQfeu's
oecb', used this language to tlie people of
uith Carolina when recommending, as Pro-,
sional Governor, thc abolition of slavery:
Instead of dwelling on the past and grieving]
er its errors and misfortunes, let us, with 1
inly fortitude, look to the future and accom-j \
adate ourselves to the circumstances Which]
