CHARLESTON. FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 23,1868. For President..HORATIO SEYMOUR For Vice-Pr?sident.FRANCIS P. BLAIR. Registration. To-morrow the revision of registratioi throughout this district will begin, and ag is explained in another column, it ii necessary that every person whn is quali fied under the law should have his nami registered at the polling place for the pre cinct in which he lives, and where only hi can vote. It will net be forgotten that the disabili ties imposed upon voters by the Reconstrue tion acts no longer exist, and that the dis abilities of the fourteenth constitution,! amendment apply to holding office, and nol to voting. In this State, therefore, then is absolutely no disfranchisement for any political cause. Every male citizen of the United States of the age of twenty-one years and upwards, who was a resident ol the State at the time of the adoption ol the Reconstruction Constitution, and has resided in the county in which he wishes to vote for sixty days next preceding the day of election, is entitled to vote, when ho shall have been registered as already explained. The hundreds of gallant gen? tlemen who were disqualified before, be? cause of their conspicuous service in the days of the war, are wholly unfettered now. A right which has been denied them for three years may be exercised freely now. And we hope that every white man in the State, who is qualified by r.ge and residence, will at once enroll his name. It is important that we should show our strength ; that we should convince the colored people that their majority is not as all powerful as their chiefs have made them believe. This will give us moral force,-the only weapon we desire to usc in the civil contest with a race which, if left unguided and untaught, will whelm both whites and blacks in ruin. It will show us our power ; a power that will be used only for our own protection and the welfare of the community. We hope that there will be no delaying or putting off ; no whispering that thc struggle is hopeless ; no determination to embrace defeat ere victory is lost. We have resolved lo make the best of our lot ; and cannot better show our pluck and pa? tience than by taking the step which gives us tho privilege of voting with the party of our choice. Register, and fail not. Thc Congressional Elections. The bad news from thc North should not cause us to relax our efforts in this State, for it is all important that the Democrats should break down the Radical power in the United States House of Representatives. That power has hitherto been so immense that there has been no check upon Radical excesses. Had the Democrats been in even a respectable minority, the Radicals never could have carried out their unconstitu? tional schemes for the reconstruction of the South, nor have shorn the President and the Supreme Court of their necessary and consti? tutional powers; nor could they have sqan dered the national income and increased the national debt until the burdens upon labor had become well nigh unendurable. A continuance of this Radical majority for another Congress would, we believe, be far more disastrous to the country than the election of GRANT. The Senate must be almost unanimously Radical, and the only hope of the South will rest upon the House of Representatives. Many of the Northern and Western States have been unfortunately so redistricted under Radical governments that the Demo? crats have been defrauded of their rightful representation in the lower house cf Con? gress. This wrong cannot be undone until after tho census of 1870; but in the mean? while every man in the South, as well as iu the North, should do his utmost lo elect the Congressional nominees of his party. The elections in Ohio, Indiana and Penn? sylvania show how mush may be accom? plished under the most unfavorable cir? cumstances. In Ohio tho Democrats have elected six out of the nineteen Congressman-a gain of four. lu Indiana they have elected four-a gain of one. In Pennsylvania they have elected eight of the twenty-four rep? resentatives-a gain of two. Thus the Con? gressional majority in these three States haB been reduced from thirty-two in. the present House to eighteen in the next. New York will do even better than this, for its Democracy have now only eleven represen? tatives in the present Congress, while the Radicals have twenty. These figures will be almost reversed next month, and under no circumstances will the Empire State send to Washington less than sixteen Dem? ocrats out of the thirty-three representa? tives to which she is entitled. It now remains to be seen what South Carolina can do to help herself and the cause of constitutional liberty. As we have shown upon a previous occasion, the Dem? ocrats can carry two Congressional districts in this State. lu the First District-Lan? caster, Chesterfield, Marlboro', Darlington, Marion, Dorry, Georgetown, Williamsburg, Sumter, Clarendon and Kershaw-the Rad? ical majority is only about three thousand, counting on the Democratic side all who voted against the Reconstruction constitu? tion or who did not vote at all. lu the Fourth District-Oconee, Pickens, Green? ville, Laurens, Spartanburg, Union, York, Chester and Fairfield-there is, upon the same basis as before, a large Democratic majority. No gerrymandering can deprive us of two Democratic members of Congress from South Carolina, if our people will nail their Congressional colors to the mast anc exert themselves so as not to lose a singlo vote. Our candidates-HARRIS COVINGTON, in the First District, and W D. SIMPSON, in the Fourth District-are good men and true. If our people will work hard for two weeks more, both of these gentlemen will assuredly be elected. Shall it not be done _?0 Bent AVERY PLEASANT SUITE OF APART?
