The linty of Registration.
A enmmittco appointed by a meeting of tko citi
'?0U3 of Havannah sometime ago, issuod an address
lo thc valors of that city, from which we mnko
Ibo following extract, which is applicable herc, ns
wc understand that sorno young mon, and perhaps
old ones, too, do uot intend to register. Wo ad?
vise such to read Uio following reason a put forward
by tho Havannah Comm:tlea :
Many of you, wo lea. u. intend declining to ro
gialcr your na inca, ii om iiupulHis apringing ont of
auntiincut and individual pndo-impulses which wo
appreciate mid respect, hut which wo think un?
practical and delusivo, and calculated to distract
your ul lent ion from ymir obvious dutioa nuil n
upouKibililics.
You shrink 1 min what you conaidor a personal
humiliation, in consenting to submit to tho dicta?
tion of thoso who uow wield tho power of tho Hon?
orai Hoven.ment, anti who choose to OXCrcisO it
despotically.
Yto entreat yon to discard thc.io fcoliuga, and to
accept onr calmer judgment and counsel in thia
matter.
Wo ngrco willi you in condouiing tho Aclu which
Congi caa hus passed, but wa do not aoknowledgo
that lhere ia anv voluntary humiliation in assort?
ing tho rights allowed lo us by them.
Granting thal tho Acta under consideration aro
nue-.II dilution al, arbitrary and unjust; that thoy
vi?lalo established principles of political right,
nml wantonly forco tho safeguards of social froo
dom-yet, until repealed cr annulled hy a comp??
tent, judicial tribunal, thoy uro tho laws of tho
lund tn which wo livo. You eau "accent tho oitus
tion" with dignity and without sacrifico of oclf
leaiiect.
Thc war is ovor; the issues upon which it waa
waged diavo lieon dooidod against un. You havo
dono your duly in that contest, but another duty
Ht ill devolves upon VOU. Tho question .now, is,
how to i a adorn our Hiato to a peaceful position of
proapcrity and. of political freedom. To thia end
Georgia needs and dem hi ubi tho aid of all
her sons. Tho only way in which you can rondor
that aid is hy qualifying yourselves to bo votors
at tho coming oloction. You can do that only by
registering your namoB undor tho provisions of
tho military actH. In no other way can you na
siiino your true positions and grasp onco more tho
1 .iover which ?B your birth-rigid.
If you hold back now and rofuao to rogistor, con?
aidor what may bo tba conaoquoncos of your I nae-'
tion, and thu responsibilities that will ro.it upon
vou.
A very WW voles may decida tho preponderance
of power at tiio noxt oloction. What fearful con
lingi ncii a nm involved iu that Himplo auggoa
tionY
ir vou rotoso to rogiater, you doprivoyoureolvoa
of tito opportunity or voting for br ngnfnnt a'cou
v uniinu, and for or against tho constitution which
thal convention may adopt.
If you refrain from qualifying yourselves to bo
votera, what guarantee Imo you that tho conven?
tion m av not framo a constitutum for yonr Slate
that will, on the very ground of your default, dis?
franchise yoursolvc.-i and your eons forever.
Wliy should you disdain to oxorciao the right of
suffrage, which has nltraya boon yours, because it
hon alan been confdircd upon others when thoro
in moro need now than avorboforo that you should
assert it?
Many of vou who will real? thia address havo
nerved your State faithfully in Ilia field, undor tho
lu meat conviction that you nero almply doing
your duly. Yon havo enrriod (hat honor which
iluty aincorcly undertaken and earnestly per?
formed, always confors. Hut other obligations to
that Hiato ?till remain to ho fulfil!, al bi ordor
to completo your record of a traut faUhTully dis?
charged, i1
At no tinto in tho history ?of our Btato, did sho

energy and devotion ni her sons in her behalf,
Immolate upon bor altar all BclQsh ideas. Every
duly is n!i rn. Every duty domands sorno sacri?
fice of mit rea t or ot reeling. - Ito ie worth nothing
to his fri- lida or hie country, who ia nut uijljng to
make Much sacrifico al tho demand of duty.
You foarleflR.lv exposed vour Uvea in dejfonoo of
yonr Statu. Will you koellato now, whon ano ia
encompassed hy now and fearful dangers, to rally
to her aid, when abo onco moro calla upon you
for support?
Friends I Wo hnvo shown you what wo behove
to bo your duly in tho proaout emergency.
- We entreat you to heal tat? no longer, to look
upon tho nitiiilion aa practical mon, tn tho light
of reason mid common sonso; and to assert to tho
rull oxtent all tho rights you poseras.

AH thin order Ima been issued ami mndo public
without any hearing or opportunity of explanation
on our part.lt ie natural and proper that wu should
neck tn vindicate our names from chargea and im?
putation** which wo deem unjust and injin num.
Tho nllpgatiniui to which wo havo particular refill
enco nro, thal "tho gold in question was tho pro?
perly of tho United Staten nt tho limn nfaaid pro
i-ei-iiin:;-i;" that "unusual and irregular mea UH
nero employed to prevent knowledge of tho Haid
?ult, and of tho oxiatoucu of said fund, in un com
iug to tho United Status authorities, of which it ia
alleged thut the nani Chancellor and tho portion
before thc Courland their cnn miel cero cognizant;"
and that the de:reo wan "without juriadiclion,
on .nu om., irregular, and a fraud upon Ibo right?
ol tho United Stoles."
If tho United States had any right or title to
lilia property, it wa?, nf course, proper that they
should ho mudo a party lo tho unit. Hut, in our
judgment, nu protussioual men, tho United States
did not thou have, nor havo they now, any proper?
ty, right or claim whatovcr under tho laws in tho
subject mutter of thu tittil. Declaring thin tn bo

wo desire to ho rognrded as declaring it in tho
ruost aolcmu and iinqualillcd manner,! anorrorof
judgment. if meh could bo matlo to appear most
clearly, would not carry with it any violation of
propriety, or subject na tn any imputation iipun
uttr motiven. lu making parties loa anil, whether
at law or in equity, counsel munt Im left In the BX
orciao of theil' own judgment upon Ihn facta of thu
i-aeo and tho rulos ol' pleading. This judgment
and discretion wo claim to havo oxeroised in gund
Inith, nud nothing moro iii that respect can justlv
be required of UH.
Hut it is affirmed in tho order that tho gold was
"tho nroporty ul the United 8ltitos." Tho lille of
tho Dinted States is not set fm Ut, nur is tboro Bay
indication ol' tho way lu which they acquired it.
All that wo find is tlin positivo assertion of thu
fact, and we aro lott to speculate for tho grounds
on which (ho claim of tho Uovcrumcnt is rested,
Tho galil was advanced or contributed for a woo
oiGc purpose, to wit: to assist In remounting
Hampton s Cavalry. Certainly tho Confederate
States had no connexion whatever with tho trans?
action, and bad no right or liability growing ont of
it. They made nu application fur it. lt was not,
in any way, subject to their control, nor had they,
HO far as wo know, any knowledge of what was prb
posod or done. Nor was it a loan to tho State, uor
did tho Statu every assuma ils repayment, (luv.
Magrath oxpicsuly declined to commit tho State to
repayment. It was not placed in tho statu Treasu?
ry, hui was kept separate and distinct from all
other public moneys. It was a voluntary contri?
bution from private sources, placed iu tho hands
of a particular public oftlcor or agent, for a sp?cule
puriMso connected with tho war. If tin v. Magrath
or Mr. Tupper bad attempted to divert il to any
other purpose, they could bnvo huon restrained
from so doing, lt'was not uecd or omployud in
(ho manner indicated. Whou thia purpose failed
or I) cea nm im pus-iii du, ns it did hy I ho termina?
tion of the war, tho gold rovortcd, on ovary prin?
cipio of reason and of law, to tho original contribu?
tors, unless it woro intercepted byjiomo right or
aot of war, or by aonto Act of Congress disposing
of it in imrsuaticu nf such right.
If, then, this gold was nut tho property of tho
Confed?ralo States, nor ot thia Mt.ito, it was pri?
vate properly, and must bo dealt with as auch.
Tho rulo of modern war is clear that na transfer
or I it lo io privato property ia worked by tho moro
belligerent occupation, or even by tho absoluto
conquest of o rountrv. Tho victorious Statu doos
succeed to tho public property of tho conquered
Statu, but not to tho privato property of ita citi?
zens. TIU'M doch ino is, of course, subject to tho
modi licit iou officinal capture nf personal prouorty
? lunn:; tho war, but upon tonninalion of thu war
tho belligerent right of actual capture ceasos. In
this caso there was no actual capturo, nor any con?
structive capturo ny tho taking of thu city, fur tho
gold was at that timo far beyond the limits of tho
city, bi tho District of Abbnvillo, nor waa it
brought back until after thu cessation of hos?
tilities.
Hut it may bo claimed Hint, by Act of August
Otb, ISuT, it is provided that all property used, or
intended (o ho used, lor iusurreclloiiary purposes,
snail bo deemed "lawful subject of ?iri/o and cap?
ture, wlierovcr found." Il .might bo unuugh to
say that thia Act waa inloudod to aid in suppres?
sing thu rebellion, and that i ti. operation ceased
willi tho tm ululation of tho war. Hut it cannot
escapo attention, that muli property is not abso?
lutely fm foiled, but is lirado "lawful subject of
nrizu and capturo."- These aro tochiiical words,
ana'L.v.A|.:?ilai> flTn.l |",,"| ..:..", -A ?I...
modo of condemnation m explicitly prescribed, to
wit : through thu District, Circuit or Admirulty
Courts nf tho United States. 1'rizo and captura
must bo during continuanco of hostilities.; ibero
eau bo no such thing after tho cessation of hos?
tilities and dining peace. They aro tho crcatorcs
of war, and livo nilly upon it, aud with it. They
do not survive it. Until capture, there is no tilla
or transfer, even during war, and at tho end of
war prizu anti capturo aro also at an cud. Not hav?
ing been abandoned property or captured pro?
perty, flagrant? belfo, tho gold in quostion ?as
not, at thi) timo of Ihcso proceedings, "lawful sub?
ject ol prize mid capturo," much loss was it tho
property nf (bo United Statca. There could ho no
pi operty before condemnation, and thom could bo
no condemnation ofter cessation ot war.
We aro not singular in this opiuion. If it bo au
error, it is au orror in company with four of tho
most' distinguished junsl ; of the UuilcdStates,
lu tho absouco of judicial decidion, tho well con?
sidered opinion of Moser::. O'Coiior, 1 .var tu, 1'.,.,,. -
pout and Drudy may well bo taken for a fair and
just exposition of tho law of any subject. In an
elaborate opinion prepared by Charlo i O'Conur,
and iu which thu omar gentlemen concur both as
to tho conoluuion and tho lino nf argument, it is
announced as their joint opinion that "according
to the true construction of tho Non-intercourdo
Act of lHtil, property nut actually seized for tho
offence during tho cont ?nuanoo of "hostilities can?
not bo subsequently la I.en, captured, seized or for?
feited for or by ro?aua of uny violation of that
Act," or "of- Ibo amendatory section last referred
to." (Section 4 of 2d Treasury Ageul Act.)
Wo need not outer into tho reasons given and
authorities cited for thin opinion which, in our
judgment, aro conclusivo,,but we.may. bs per?
mitted tu.say ?bat UiuKo distinguished [liverers,
having arrived at that legal conclusion, would not
havo doomed thu United Stales a necessary or
proper parly to tboso proceedings, and that if they
Ead failed or omitted lo mali o thom a party, they
would hardly havo hetti suspected of a design to
commit it fraud upon the government.
. llut tho order recites that "unusual and irregu?
lar means wcro itsod to prevent tho knowlcdgo of
this suit and of tho uxistonco of tho fund from
coming to tho knowledge of tho United Statca an?
thon t ?os," Sec. .
If tho United States hail no right or titlo to tho
property, thou no injury or injustice was dona lo
them, even if knowledge nf tho suit abd of tho
fund had hoon conoeoiMi from thom; and if credit
bo givoa to thosa.cohwrned in thean proceedings
for good failli iii tho opinion that thoro was no
iuicii right ot titlo, however erroneous? that opin?
ion might bo, they would bo entitled in common
fairness to protection from all imputation upon
tb cir motives.
Tho order docs not specify what woro tho
"u nu H ii si and irregular means" referred to. Wo
must resort to conjecture on this point also.
The pro eec dings woro originated in January,
18oC, but Uio papom were not filed until Fobruary,
1887< . It bi not "unusual or irregular" to withhold
all tho papara from filing until aomo unal dooroo
or dcorotal order is sought. In this caso there I
certainly waa no hurry. Moro than a year (runs
pi red boforo any other ordor was taken than those
necessary to secure tho fund in Court. When the
papers woro Hied lt was slated upon tho taco of tba
order itself, and HO recorded lu tho minuto book,
that Hie casu bad not been docketed before, "for
prudent tal ro&aoua. Thia ? tatet mm l waa unneces?
sary, but still it was made because it was true. Wo
havo no hesitation in avowing that tho napers woro
not lile J earlier, because tho Stat o waa at that
timo infested by persona claiming to bo Troasury
Agents, by whom privoto proporty of overy drt
scription was seized, upon any pretext, in tho
name of tho Government, and removed from tho
Kioto boforo any adjudication or relief oould bo
had.' Tho United States Court was not thou or
ganizod, pud il is known to tho wholo country that
tho grossest wrongs wore perpetrated upon an im?
poverished and helplcPH-people by rioxiguing per
eonB, who, nuder color or pretext of authority,
took cruel advant?go of tho disorganized condition
of things, to pray upon whatever of valno thoy
oould hiv their hands upon, But tho vary ordor
for tho doekoting of the caso in r/e bsa tory, 48C7, is
riot only a frank avowal of tho reason why it had
not bcon docketed boforo, but an implied acknowl?
edgment that thom ifog J\Q longer Buy occasion for
those prudential reasons. It )s dlfiUmlt to soo how
this part of tho proceedings can bo torturod into
any sort of "co nco al m ont."
Hilt rofe ru nco jp ay bo had to tho ordor for
taking tho papers of/filo. Upon this point of tho
caso wo desire to mako our oxplaruttion vory plain,
so that unprofessional as well as professional per?
sons may. understand it, because (t may bo sup?
posed or inferred that t>|0 object ami" effect af
I laking tho papers from tho (llo wore io romovo all
traces of tho suit and fund. To tako tho origina) pa?
pers off Hie is not an unusual or irregular pro?
ceeding ecioxdjiig to J'tiglioh Chancery practico or
our own Chancery practice. On tho contrary lt is
regular and hot uiifroqacnt. Another i rp tinco oc?

TITTE STATEMENT brought by Ibu Cable thal I'.ish
op DuPAUMUir, of Paris, is a prominent candidate
Tor tho Papal Hiioccssion at thc death of Pics IX.,
is either un error or a very signiflcanl fact. Siuco
tho lime of AJUMAN VI., in tho year I..'.;.:, no pro
lato has boon oligiblo, prnclienlly, tu tho Papal
chair unless ho was an Italian hy hirth. Tho po
liar union of temporal and spiritual powor in tho
Hoad of tho Church, and Ibo vastness of tho in
fluctico itt ra ct ni;; to tho oflico, since tho leigu nf
lin X., had eui nj ia el ed end organised tli.il nov
creiguly, made tho Papacy too (empting a prize to
bo open tor tho intrigues and strifes of different
nations; and so, by common consent, for nearly
three centuries and a half, Italians alono havo been
oligiblu iu Hie cloe tu m by tho College uf C n di mils.
If NAPOLEON really intends to pro3s ono of his own
mon upon tho College, nud, aa it '.vero, forco the
succession out of Italy, it must betoken some
Turthor niovo in connection willi his well-known
views concerning thc Reparution of temporal ?ind
spiritual sovereignty, lint tho probability is that
tho rumor ni only a rumor. In the hr-.! place, tho
venerable Pius IX. illili lives, and ia in remarkably
?$ood health. Till ho ia dead there cannot bo
much of a struggle over lils successor.
A I STEMS WNO OASIS has just occurred in Bald -
moro, whoro a obild waa claimed by two wo mon,
each assorting horaolf to bo tho veritable paront.
Tho ovidonco naturally Boomed to tho court irro
.oneilablu and contradictory. In this dilemma
tho Judge-doubtless rcmouiboring a celebrated
ancient example, but modifying Rr to suit tho
present'ora of enlightenment- dircclcd_lwo chairs
tn bo placed at opposito onda ol tho court room.
Ho then requested aim. PEMIV, ono of tho-potition
ars, to take ono of tho seats, and Airs. FADJBEI.L,
ino of tho respondents, tho othor. Tho child dar?
li,; tho Inuring hail boen standing upou tho plat?
form, at tho aldo of tho Jiu!ge. Judge AT.EXANDEB
?hem turned to tho child and told it go to itu
mother.' The chilli started down, but turned
uotind and asked tho Judgo, "May I go to thu
mothor I want?" Tho Judgo Haid, "Yea, my
-iiild," when shu sprang forward, and throw her?
self in tho arma of Mrs. FAMTEM., e xclaiming :
"Thia fa tho mothor 1 want."
IT IA MC KKViNU for. any truo lovor of popular
freedom to road the dotails nf such horrid hlood
lca8ta aa thoao which tho ao-callod Liber-ile of I
Mexico aro now gorging Oiomsolvos with. Tho !
execution of tho old soldier VlDAimni was ? brutal
enough for tho wildest oxoosscs of revolutionary
Paris. And, indued, it ia only by tho rccolloc

among people who now honst of slautling ot tho
