Governor Worth hus published nu
address to the people of North Caro?
lina, urgiug aud recommending re?
gistration. He concludes as follows:
Tho sole object of this address is
io urge ou every citizen of North Ca?
rolina to register, who may bo enti?
tled to register, and I havo gone
into this recital of somn of tho provi?
sions of tho Acts of Cougress, to en?
able you to understand tho misons
which induce me to advise you.
If you do not register, then you
will not be allowed to voto for or
against the call ol' a convention,
which is expected to make the altera?
tions in your constitution contem?
plated by these Acts of Cougress, aud
such other alterations as the delegates
may deem proper.
If you do not register, you will not
be allowed to vote for any delegate
to tho convention.
When tho convention shall have
proposed a new constitution, if you
shall not have registered, you will
not bo allowed to vote on tho ratifi?
cation or rejection of the proposed
constitution, however much you may
admire or abhor it. And if you do
not register, you will not be allowed
to vote for meinbors of tho Legisla?
ture, who are to ratify or reject the
proposed fourthteeutb article, as au
amendinentof the Constitution of the
Uuited States.
I have uo hesitation in urging
upon every citi/.eu, who is allowed
the privilege of voting under these
laws, to register, so na to vote if he
chooses, on these questions. No ci?
tizen allowed to register and vote,
who fails to vote, will bave any right
to complain, if those who do register
and vote should adopt a constitution
which should be ever so oppressive
and proscriptive.
Whatever coustitutiou may be
adopted, will no doubt contain a pro?
vision making it difficult to amend it.
Hence every ci t i zen allowed to do so,
should do what he can to make the
uew government as good as possible.
Let mo ask each of you, who are
allowed to vote aud register-aro yon
willing to surrender all share in
making the constitution and laws
under which you arti to live? Are
you willing to surrender all share in
electing tho officers to whom shall be
confided the making and the exe?
cuting of the laws, includiug the
levying and collecting taxes?
Whether you regard these laws ns
constitutional or unconstitutional,
wise or unwise, yon ought to register
and put yourselves in condition to
vote, and maintain, as long as possi?
ble, the right of tho people to form
the government and make the laws
nuler which they aro to live. If you
cannot have a government ns you de?
sire, make it us good as you can.
A neglect or refusal to register, I
regard as a voluntary surrender of
the right to take part in Government
affairs, and I therefore most earnestly
entreat every citizen not to despair
of popular government, but to regis?
ter and vote, and try to maintain a
Government which will give to bim
aud his posterity as much of security
ind happiness as possible.

VVELLWORTII READING-Who is
there that does' not desire to bc always cx
' empted from indigestion-to have a good
j appetite, a painless stomach, a clear head,
I a regular pulse, a healthy complexion? If
i this meets the eye of any who are not
1 thus blessed, let them try HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS. We guarantee that
this delightful tonic will restore any sto?
mach, however wonk, to a healthy condi?
tion; that it will bring back thc truant ap?
petite, and give permanent vigor to tho
whole system. Thc fceblo and emaciated,
suffering from dyspepsia or indigestion in
any form, aro advised, for tho sako of
their own bodily and mental comfort, to
try it. Ladies of tho most delicate consti?
tution testify to its harmless and its re?
storative properties. Physicians every?
where, disgusted with tho adulterated
liquors of commerce, describe il as tho
I SAFEST AND MOST RELIARLE
i of all s'omaehies. Its effects aro instanta?
neous. It docs not require weeks of dos
! ing before its virtues are realized. Thou
I sands sit down to their meals void of
I appetite, eating bec?uso others cat. Tho
! food thus forced into tho stomach does
j positive harm. Instead of strengthening
the system, it engenders a variety of ail
I monts, which end in confirmed dyspepsia.
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS,
taken regularly before meals, will prevent

FEVER AND AGUE-In every see
j tion of country where fever and ague prc
; vails, it is common to timi a large numbc
of periodic headaches, nenralgia, cob
hand-- and feet, and a general derange
ment of the system, from impaired ?liges
! tion, torpor of tho liver, Ac.- in short, tba
condition which is so generally, and oftei
I so erroneously, called '.bilious," but which
! in fact, is causod by the presence of ma
laria in quantity too small to develop
regular chill. A bottle of QUEEN'S DE
LIGHT will euro such eases at once, b
neutralizing in tho system the cause of a
tho trouble, and at tho same timo preven
a regular attack of chills, which! after
longer or shorter time, is likely to follm
these bilious symptoms. Try the Queen1

THE TRIUMPH OF ART!
MORE TESTIMONY IN FAVOR OF
Heinitsh's Queen's Delight.
EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS: "Thc
Queen's Delight is beginning to
awaken tho attention of our physician*,
its remarkable curative power is seen in
its wonderful effect upon disease. AH a
blood purifier, thero ia no medicine Uko it
known to tho profession. A gentleman
told mo that his son has been taking tho
Queen's Delight, and is moro benefited by
it than by any other medicine. He wants
a dozen bottles."
Extract from a lotter: "It is due to yon
to state in this public manner, in order
that the people may know tho truth, that
1 have tried your Queen's Delight, ami
found it not only what you said it was--"a
puro medicino"-hut the best medicine 1
have ever taken fur eruptions ami general
had health. I had an emption all over my
body, with impaired digestion mid disor?
dered liver, and have tried a great many
medicines without any benefit. I have
taken one buttle of your Queen's Delight,
the eruption bas disappeared, my appetite
is better, toy liver and digestion is im
Iivovcd. I Kin satisfied ono or two more,
jottles will cure nie."
Extract from a lotter: "At tho close of
tho war, my constitution was shattered. 1
could not eat. Bleep or perform any duty
whatever, sueh was my prostrato condi?
tion. Medicine and medical aid I had in
abundance, such was my condition np to a
tow months since, when I began tho uso of
your Qneeirs Delight. I have unod two
bottles, my constitution is greatly im?
proved, my appetite is good, enjoy r?fresh
ing sleep, and nm able to perform'my share
of daily labor."
Extract from a letter -Wonderful effect
of only one bottle: "I have used only a
half bottle of 'Queen's Delight' for boils
and eruptions ot the skin and itching hu?
mors of the blood, which annoyed me very
much. 1 am entirely cured, f think your
medicine a valuable ont;."
A reniai kahle case of liver complaint ami
headache cured by tho use ot "Heinitsh's
Queen's Delight:"' A lady of unquestioned
worth and reputation voluntarily gives tes?
timony of thu wonderful effects of this
medicine, she has been from early years
a martyr t" headaches, caused by imper?
fect action of the liver, producing intense
headache and pain rt vcr tho eyes. Shebas
taken only hun hollies, und assures us of
the perfect cure i: h:;s made. She m w en?
joys good health.
'Still another: "During last spring, 1 had
boon troubled with obstinate chills .md
fever, which, when cured, left my system
in a wretched condition, blood impure, and
I was nilli, ted with ail angry, and, as I ut
? ne time thought, an incurable, cutaneous
eruption over my entire body. The most
vin! nt remedies suggested failed to work
acure, until, ai the instance of a friend, I
Iriod Dr. Heinitsh's Queen's Delight, bess
than two bottles cured me, leaving my skin
in a healthy condition. My general health
is as good us over, for such puntosos, l
have, ever since my cure, unhesitatingly
recommended your Queen's Delight."
