The work of Registration seems to be stcadi

lion's share of the work falling upon the lioart

Outof 091 names registered at (liin place lit

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

found easier to vote oneself a forty acre-farm

said injm Uichmond speech, those who own

^ 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.
