The. hurdle races are expected to prove very attractive. -Two New Yorkers had a smoking match on Monday. One human chimney consumed twelve cigars and a quarter from 8 to 12 P. M. The les? enterprising only got through ten and ?half. -Some wag in Washington, taking advan? tage ol tho Ku-E.iux excitement, bas busied himself by sending circulars marked with death's heads, coffins, etc., to Butler, Stevens, Wade, and other Radical members of Con gross. . -'.Che remains of the late gallant General, Johr, H. Morgan, are about being removed from Hollywood Cemetery, near Richmond, Va., whore they have been resting for the last few years, to Kentucky, his native State. -A Vermont man, William Bailaw, by name, seems to have been doing a pretty extensive business in tho marrying line. He was lately arrested and convicted of bigamy at Orford, N. H. It appeared that ho had a wife in Canada; two wives in Marshfield (one of them divorced); one in New York; one somewhere at the South, aud one with him, whom he married last January in Newbury, Vt.-making six wives in all. -The position of the Radical party upon im? peachment is concisely stated in the following Washington telegram to a Boston paper. ''Whatever may bo the strictly legal aspects of the case, it has become a political necessity to remove tho great obstacle in the way of re? construction and to arrest tho executive usurpation that is paralyzing the peace and the prosperity of the republic." -The movement of trade from the West to the Atlantic seaboard is again resuming its old channel by way of the Mississippi River. Shipments of grain from various points in the Mississippi Valley to New Orleans, whence they come to the Atlantic ports, are constantly re? ported, and New Orleans fasiors are greatly rejoiced at the increase of prosperity the new current gives to that city. -The London Times wishes a summary set? tlement of the question of expatriation, by a declaratory enactment of Parliament "that any Englishman who becomes naturalized abroad ceases at once to enjoy the privileges and to be hable to the duties of an English subject." It believes that a spontaneous resolution of this kind by Parliament would solve all thedifii cuInes, theoretical as well as well practical, in the question of allegiance. -It is proposed now to try and hang James Buchanan. One of the impeachment man? agers has got bold of a now story from a .South Carolinian, of unquestionable personal honor, .and of the best stanaing at homo," showing .that the ex-Presideut was guilty of a heretofore unknown deed of perfidy in the matter of Fort Sumter, seven years ago. "If the story is not false," says tho manager, "I hold that we ought yet to try and hang James Buchanan." -Tne New York Times says : "One of our prominent city publishers is about to issue a book by a woman who has been a servant in the houses of Jeff. Davis and of President Lin? coln", and who promises very 'spicy* revelations concerning, the private life of the families of both. This b trikes us as rather a scandalous adventure-a ?tyle of authorship which it seems scarcely rorth while to encourage. If servants are to be called on to feed the public appetite for personal revelations and gossip of this sort, their position will acquire a degree of Importance which has not hitherto been accord? ed to them." -The editor of the Cleveland Leader has had a talk with Judge Chase upon current po liticil topics. In relation to the Presidency Mr. Chase said: ,lI wish that all men of all parties tvould leave my name alone in connec? tion with the Presidential nomination. I do not seek tho Presidency/' He went on to say that, as a justice of tho Supreme Court of the United States, he bsd necessarily to abandon party politics. When he went on that bench he assumed an obligation recognized in his oath, but anterior and superior to it, to do im? partial juBtice under the Constitution and laws of the United States. Ho could not be a party judge, or allow himself to be swayed by parti? san feeling, without violating that oath. And he regretted that newspapers of both parties had connected some of his recent actions with party or perverse feeling. -The Round Table bas been studying a photographic group of the impeachment man? agers, and after saying that the study has in. spired a sensation "not of chagrin, for we are becoming hardened to such things, but of dis? gust," it adds: "Of the 3even men to whom has been intrusted the conduct of one of the most momentous events in the life of the nation, there are but two whose appearance conveys assurance that they are gentlemen; one has the aspect of a fireman arrayed for a ball, a typical Bowery swell: the remaineler suggest farmers in their Sunday clothes, the boots of the entire party having evidently received, on the eve of their posing, the preternatural pol? ish of street boot-blacks. We do not mean tnat in at lea^t five taces out of the seven there is anything particularly sinister, but that they are essentially commonplace and mediocre, of the type one would expect to encounter in a ?country tr.vern or meeting-bouse, rather than in a high legislative assemblage." Tho New York T?B?.;3 adels: "If any one considers the first par; o? this description to *..o ?l:-i.t.y tail? ed trio snobbishness, ht mitst at least admit, after Iv !;::<;; thc- photographic -..vip. that, in Western phrase, they ar.: t. very .or'nary j looking' -set. sn? no ?-nut ihc-y would form a striking contrast willi th? rather impressive ard int<U<?ctral-lTOkins boc\v v.ho constitute thc c ansi : for the defence. Lu; how will ali this increase Mr. Johnson's choncet of acquit? tal r , . -In an article "u tLc ;?E?-Kiux," the New Tf.rk P< gays: "lt xviii not clo to say that the Loyal League means right and tho Eu-Elux means wrong. Tho Ku-K!ux Lave committed some murders, but we think there is no doubt tba: the Loyal Leagues have done the same thing. Thc Ku-Elux, i: is said, have shielded their members, when crimin?is, against pun? ishment by law; w; know that the same thing has bceu don? in South Carolina and other States by Loyal League Ciubs. It must begin to be clear, even to Southern Unionists, that the policy of exclusion and proscription, into which they have- been led by a few vindictive and a few designing and wicked men, is a mis? take. It does not produce peace, harmony, order; it yields only violence, hatred, disorder, as tyranny must always do. It perpetuates and intensifies the fires of class hatred and prejudice. It necessitates constantly the in? terference of the armed hand of the general government. It breeds secret societies and produces assassinations, evasions of justice and defiance of wholesome laws." CHARLESTON. TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 14, 1368. To tlie Registered Voters. Ai the election which begins to-day, the people of South Carolina have the privi? lege, under the laws of Congress, of voting for or against the uew constitution for South Carolina, framed by the convention recently in nession here. Our citizens owe it to themselves to cast their votes as one man against that instrument, even though, in 60 doing, they should accomplish no more than to put on record before the world their solemn protest against many of the features which it embodies. Let no one, who is qualified, neglect to vote. T tie ."Municipal Kleet(ons-Is it -N ecessary for Votes* to Pay a. C a p lt nt lo n Tax ? The question has been asked whether a citizen, otherwise qualified, who does not pay his capitation tax, or other city taxes to the amount of two dollars, can vote at the Charleston municipal elections: and the following reasons are given to prove that no payment of capitation tax. or any other tax, is now necessary to make a qualified voter : 1. At all elections held in the Southern States until those States are readmitted to representation in Congress, all persons are entitled to vote who have been registered as qualified voters by the Boards of Regis? tration. lu section six of the original Reconstruc? tion act, there are the following words : "Until the people of said rebel States shall be by law admitted to representation in the Congress o? the United States, any civil governments which may exist therein shall be deemed provisional only, * * * and in all elections to any office under such provisional governments all persons shaL1 be entitled to vote, and none others, who are entitled to vote under the provisions of the fifth section of this act." This is clear enough, and the use of the word provisional in referencti to the elections, after a defini? tion has been given of what is "a provis? ional government," shows that it is the in? tention of fae act to give the privilege of voting at all elections held before the South? ern States are admitted to representation in Congress, l o all who were qualified under section five. This fifth section gives the voting privilege to all men twenty-one years of age citizens of the State, except such as may be disfranchised for participation in the rebellion or for felony at common law. The first supplemental act, however, changed the qualification of these voters by requiring all of them to take what is known as the registration oath, so that the sixth section of the original act, as amended by subsequent legislation, gives the right of voting at all elections to all persons who are registered qualified voters. Nor doe* this privilege cease when the new Recon? struction Constitution is framed, adopted and submitted to Congress. The civil gov? ernments in the Southern States are pro? visional until the States are admitted to rep? resentation in Congress, and until that ad? mission tt'.kes place all registered voters have the right to vote at all elections in the Southern States, whether the conventions be held or not, and whether the constitu? tions be accepted or rejected. When the Southern States are readmitted to repre? sentation the paramount authority of Con? gress will sense, and then the qualification of voters will be determined by the State constitutions alone. 2. But if the acts of Congress are not considered binding, it is not necessary to pay a capitation tax to qualify to vote under the constitution lately manufactured in this city. It was proposed in convention that a poll tax be leveed upon every male citizen for educational purposes, and that all persons who did not pay this poll tax should be dis? franchised. This disfranchising clause was not carried, and, to decide the matter, a section was added to Article VIII, as fol? lows : "The G?neral Assembly shall never pass any law that will deprive any of the citi? zens of this State of the right of suffrage, except for treason, murder, robbery, or duelling, vhoreof the persons shall have been duly tried and convicted." This would be sufficient, because a city holding its i"0wei3 from the State would not be allowed to exercise an authority which the State itself did not possess, and because it would be an absurdity to allowa man to be disfranchised in this city for not payi: g a capitation tax of two dollars, when the convention hud ordained that no person should be disfranchised except for crime. But there is a statement even clearer tbau this. The seventh section of th? orlinuuce of the convention --to pro? vide tor the ratification of the constitution and frr the election of certain ofiicor?,' is a? follows : .'Tba; within thirty ?ays niter thc rail fica:ion of this constitution, an election shall bc held in and for each county, at such time ami places, and under such regula? tions as may be prescribed by said board of commissioners for the election of all county officers required by this constitution to be elected by the people. And the said board shall also have authority to call elections for all municipal officers, at present elected by the people, at the same time, and sub? ject to such regulations as said board may prescribe, no: inconsistent with this con? stitution or the charters of such municipal bodies. And at such elections every amii' I jud coter under the provisions of this con? stitution may vote/or all oficeri to be elected." The qualifications under the constitution are: male citizen, twenty-one years old, a resident of the State, and who is not dis? qualified to hold office under the Constitu? tion of the United States. So that all per? sons are entitled to vote at all these elec? tions who have been able to take the regis? tration oath. There is not in either the Reconstruction acts or the new constitution any mention of taxation, but the Reconstruction acts do say that at all elections all registered voters shall have the right to vote, and the new constitution declares that no person shall be disqualified from voting except for cer? tain causes, of which the failure to pay taxes is not one. These assertions and provisions lead to the absolute conviction that voters at the next municipal elections will not be and cannot be-either by Gene? ral CANDY or the convention document prevented from voting because they have not paid their capitation or other taxes. They prove also that a registered voter who goes up to the polls without a tax receipt will be as well off as the anxious registered voter who carries that paper in his pocket. City ordinances have nothing to do with the elections. They will be held according to the Reconstruction acts and the ordinances of the convention, and will be conducted and governed under no other rule. Chart n and State. Mr. DISRAELI, the English Premier, has written a letter to the Earl of Dartmouth, in which, referring to the Irish Church question, he says the crisis is one rather in England than in Ireland, and adds, "the purpose is now avowed, and that by a pow? erful party, of destroying that sacred union between Church and State which has hith? erto been the chief means of our civiliza? tion, and is tbc only security for our relig? ious liberty.-' This is a remarkable decla? ration, coming from the Premier of Eng? land. The acknowledgment of the strength of the party opposed to the State establish? ment is contained in a few words, but the authority from which it proceeds is con? vincing. durational.
