when, as Captain Mclviri. said, it was an
"un'sputed" fact that he was bodyser-;
yant to Captain Black of the Federal
army.' and ' helped shovel dirt : on- the
breast-works in "de rebel" war. Captain
Mclviri- stood axound : and listened \ to
otlier -applicants. One c- the registrars
read the' oath as to conviction of crime
very fast.' drawing forth tiie remarkfrom
Captain Melvin;' "ain't er hundred j 'men
kin un'erstan' dat fas' readin' 'bout
1 crime." ' "Now, Captain Melvin," said a
registrar, ."didn't Justice Crutchiield
road warrants faster than that?" "Look
hyar, Buh, v ain" no blot on Cap'n Melvin
Carter's character, 'ccpin he will touch
whiskey." But alas for Captain Melvin,
Policeman Tate. the erstwhile "Pop,"', of
base-ball ,fame, ; had overheard ths last
remark, arid suggested. "How about ckJck
ons. Melvin?" Captain' Melvin - -VRSt'Ay
I pmacked his' lips, looked wise, and slunk
ed off. but : his silence was eloquent. An
other darkey defined "the judiciary"- as
"de Capitol Sauare." Another intelligent

A negro applied * with a great deal .of.
solf-confidence— not j to . say - gusto— and.vwas ■■
apparently highly indignant that his. ex
planation was not received as satisfac
tory. He defined the General Assembly
as "de mass ub voters," and explained to
the registrars very lucidly (he thought)
that every ri-. an „ had a right .to. "radish."
He said the executive department was
"dc hoard," and, when further pressed,
defined ithe executive and judicial depart
ments as '.'de Democrat en Republican;
party." 'He explained, however, "I am'
made .no study er dat pervision." Three
sections" were, tried on him in vain, and
he left' in high dudgeon, stopping at the
door to receive the ardent sympathy of a.
certain -Republican office-holder, ■ who

The. rights; of students at -colleges and.
of'temporary residents of a city who are
located at charitable or other eleemosy
nary institutions to vote, which has been
raised by several . persons, during the
registration now in progress has been set
tled by an opinion of the Attorney-
General Mr. ; William A. Anderson., con-,
burred -in by Mr. Hill Carter, Mr. Eppa
Hunt on, and other members of the con
vention, that" framed the Constitution.
The Attorn ey-vjeneral holds that it. was
undoubtedly the purpose of the. conven
tion to prohibit any inmate of a soldiers'
home or other charitable, institution and
institutions of learning from being regia-.
tered or voting- anywhere except in. the
county or city in which such person re
sided before he became an inmate of such
institution. .
