The work of Registration seems to be stcadi !y progressing before our Neveral hoards, tli< lion's share of the work falling upon the lioart al this place. As was to lie expected, the col ored element so fur has largely preponderated Outof 091 names registered at (liin place lit "were white and 55IJ colored. At Calhoun': Mills the proportion was Cti whites to 300 colored. The blacks in registering seem to In acting under the impulse of unusual stimulants and the ii-Hion seems generally to prcvai among them that registration is a conditioi precedent to drawing rations of landed orothei property. We very much fear that (he demand will exceed the supply, that it. will 1>< found easier to vote oneself a forty acre-farm than to get it?easy to cull "spirit* from tin vasty deep," hut -'will they come }" As Grcey said injm Uichmond speech, those who own farms catn"<or inherit litem. ^ We trust that no on# who can, will fail It register. We need every conservative < letnenl to temper the fiery current of agrariarism aiR Ked-ltepuhlicnnism. In Virginia the xvli it< element i? largely in the ascendency; it ia it the ascendency in Georgia; and here with prop cr'exerlion it,can make its influence* felt lteai and ponder the following advice from the Co lumhia I'hfrnix : There is one thing wo desire to call the attention of all of our readers to, ami that is the mere act of availing themselves of the privilege of registration dues not. commit them W an endorsement of the reconstruction Act*, 01 voting for acouvontion. It is simply an act o; qualification, conferring upon them the right tc vote as they please on the questions at issue. Th?y should bear in inind that, having rog'stered, they'cau vole for or ngainst n convention can select their ineu to represent thrm in thai body, and can vote to reject or adopt the conttitution it may submit lor their i.pproval. This is an important pniut for those <pinliin rrorintor. Tin* mere rocislration of tlieli names does not commit them one way or the one way or tlx. other, and, indeed, if tiny ehoo.?e, lliey may refuse to vote at all. But, by registering, the} will have scoured the ojv tion, whereas the neglect to do so preclude! Iheni from exercising their judgement at tin ballot-box of either meu on measures; and disqualifies them from voting for or against dither, so long as these laws are in furoe. Register then, if3'ou do not go near the hnllut-box, ami thus preserve to yourselves the hii;hct privilege conferred upon the citizen. Fbceume.n's Dinner at (Iurexwoou.?we learn that a very excellent public dinner wh.criven on Saturday last by (lie frcednien of the vicinity of Greenwood, for the purpose of exchanging idea?, and Informing themselvts upoii the pending icsues ; that there was a laruo at tendance on the ocoasion, anil that the (lay passed off with remarkable quietness, harmony n<l good feoliiig. There was amplo provision made of good cheer for the entertainment o the guests, and to this cii<l the whiten and blacks all freely contributed. The meeting was under the special direction of the freed' man, but the whiles hud been very generally invited to participate, and furnished from prominent citizens of the vicinity the chit speakers on the occasi-n. The assembly wai successively addressed by S. I*. Boozer, I><]. Capt. J. R.Tarrant, Mnj. J. A. Lei and, and L>r. E. It. Calhoun. The addresses of these gentlemen were replete with lioueM. advice and wist counsel. The freedmen were instructed as tc their changed relatione and newly assumed duties. They were advised to eschew party poli tics, eecrel political leagues and nil ailiiliatior Willi unknown adventurers. Taey were urged ti improve their condition l>y ue?|uiriuj? an edited tion, and exercising habits of indu?*iy urn economy, and above all to cultivate harmoniou: relutioab with the white ra;e an the necesbarj conditions of thi? progress. These ecntimeuti were well received by tlie freedipeii, and wen reiterated and enforced by several colore*, speakers, among vyhonj tho most prcmiuen wnB Paul Jefferson, the teacher of a coloreschool at Greenwood. The meeting wm o the roost harmonious character, and affordct the best evidence of the friendly relation which exiut between the two races in this vi cinity, and would exist every where but f?r tin efforts of nuedy adventurers and selfish agitn tora. Cabinet aid Military Removals.?TI* >mMt important e.vept of the past week is lit removal of Secretary Stanton, and the nccep tance by Gen. Grant of the poBt of Secretar of War ad tultrinu Tlie nomination of Gen Grant was a stroke of policy which tho Secrt tary was unable to resist, and bis acceptnnc left him no alternative but to retire. To th record of General Grant tba Radicals can urg OO valid objections, whilst to the Conservative his administration of the War Departinout uf fords a guarantee that whether not he l*nd an active support to the President's roci-n airuction poliey, no effort will bo spired to allay Motional strife, and to assuage the prescn political agitation. The recent action of tlw President in abrogating the order of Genera BickUs, setting aside the process of the U. S Courte shows a determination to uphold tlx oivil authority, and the more recent changes i the Military Districts seem to imply an entir harmony between the President and Ganer? Grant. That tho President should furnis 4hese exhibitions of firmnm at this eleven! hour is io iUelf a cbeerinfltf^lication, but tli acceptance by so cauliou^^rman as Geoen <Jr.aut and occupying bis peculiar relations t the Presidency, Is much more significant. It eertaiin that bis present altitude whilst on con aging fliie hopes of the conservatives, is giviu mucii juxiety to the Radicals. The Dake of Montrose expressed the hope, i the Houm of Lords, that very early there woul be daily mail conwiMoicatiou with the Unite Slates. ~?
