The Itegiqtryl3ill..lfore Rfttheal ering. tie folloaing is an abstract of the new I bill passed by the Legislature, and approved by the Governor, to regulate The elective franchise in this State. Its proper title would be'Ali act to denrive the working men of the right of suifrig;e. by placing so nians oh struettons in the way,that, in justice.to their families, they - will be' unable to give it the required time and attention." A baser at tempt to harais and defraud tho laboring class of the community was never invented : Section one provides that the several as sessors shall make out alphabetical lists ofall whom they know to be, or who may claim to be voters, marking opposite the names of housekeepers, their residence, and if they are not housekeepers, their occupation, boarding house and the name of their employer. Natur ntliied citizens must show their papers to the assessors, before their names can be placed on the listsi d uniess they have voted in the district at five preceding elections, and the letter N. will be placed opposite their name - s. Where the person has only declared his in tentions, the letters D. L shall be appended to the name ; the word "age" to such as have just arrived at twenty-one Land the letter 11. to those who have removed from another dis trict. It is the duty of the Co. Commission ers to cause the alphabetical list to be re turned by the, assessors on or before the Ist of September; and all persons who voted at the last election in October, 1867, shall have their names.registered, without further proof or qualifieation,,but they shall be subject to challenge the Same as provided in the fourth section. On the list being completed, the commi+- sioners shall have duplicate copies made-, two of which shall be given to each assessor, who shall, prior to August Ist of . every year, post one copy up at the Polls of his district, and keep the other for the free, inspection of all who wish fusee it ; and, on the personal application of any one claiming to vote, his name shall be added, with the letters C. V, annexed. The judges and inspectors of elections must be provided with a list by the assessor on the tenth day preceding the election in October. . On Saturday, the tenth day next preced ing - the Second Tuesday of October, the judges and inspectors shall hold a session at the election place of their district % between the hours of nine and six o'clock, to hear proof of the right of the persons whose names are on the list to rote, or who shall apply to be reg istered ; and all who hare not previously been registered inust make proof of their righf,and on their chant being conceded the assessor is forthwith to asses - s'a personal tax upon'them. When .the - session is concluded; duplicate copies of the revised list must be made out— one to be posted up at the polls, the other to he retained by the judge of election, who shall hold the same open to public inspection. In case of a general or presidential election, the officers miy hold their session one or more days (not exceeding four) preceding the tenth day named, of which proper notice shall be given; and where two or more dis tricts.havp only one assessor all the election officers shall in the precinct giving the largest number' of votes. The election offi— cers are required to meet again on the Thurs day next preceding any general election, be tween the same hours as before, for the pur pose of hearing any claims from persons who wish to vote, not before registered. The per son so claiming must produce a witness to his residence in the district ten days, and he must further . Make an affidaVit, stating where he was born ; how long a citizen of Penn sylvania ; where, and when naturalized, if a foreigner ; present his naturalization -PaPers, unless he has voted in the district five years ; that he has not moved into the district merely to vote ; that he could not appear at the former registry ; that he is not registered diets-here ; that he has paid the legal tax, and where and to whom ; and he must pro-. duce his tax receipt or make oath that it has been lost.. Persons voting on age are ex empt from the taxation feature. The affida vits of said claimants are to be preserved un til election day, and at its close sealed up, with the other official papers. After the sec ond session has ended, the new names regis tered shall be appended to the other list, and disposed of as befoni provided: It shall not be lawful to receive the vote of any one whose name., is not -cm the registry, and any Ofticer,so doing is liable to fine Or imprison ment. - Any qualified citizen of the district has. the right to challenge persons whose names are on the registry, and compel them to bring the same pronts_as are now required by law. Every naturalized citizen must take his pa pers to the polls, unless ,he Ins voted ten years. When any person has deposited his ballot, a record shall be made of the act, and any one voting more than once the same day shall beliable-ti, punishment, not exceeding $lOO fine or one year's imprisonment. At the close of tho polls, the registry lists shall be sealed up, and remain unopened un til after the next meeting of the Legislature, unless required for official use. Tell days preceding a presidential election, another session of the judges and inspectors shall be held, to go through the same fermu- . la provided in the third section. At special,_ city, borough, and township elections, the registry may' be used as evi dence ; but the absence of any person's name shall not be conclusive against his right to vote. The assessors, inspectors and judges shall take an oath before • competent authority to perform their duties faithfully, and they have the right to administer oaths in all cases eenuected with an;upplication to Note. They are to receive the same com pensation per day as,. at present, with extra al4owance for making opt the list; No as s •sor shall assess a tax within ten days pre c ding a general or presidential election, or he will subject himself to severe penalty. On petition of five or more citizens of the County, stating, under oath, that they believe frauds will be practised in any district, the court shall appoint tvio. persons (one from each party) to act as overseers at said polls. ,They will have the right to be present with the election officers during the whole time the polls are open and the vote being count ed ; to keep a list of voters ; to challenge ap plicants and examine witnesses and papers ; and must be afforded every facility for the discharge of their duty. if the officers re fuse, or the overseers are diiven from the polls, all the votes of the district are to be rejected.. _ Any officer giving a fraudulent naturaliza tion certificate shall be guilty of a high mis demeanor; and any person knowingly tusk ing use of one shall be fined not less than $l,OOO, and imnrisoned not exceeding three years.

IL Ellis, Esq., one of the Most active and intelligent men of the township, asPres ident. We hope. to see: their trample fol lowed in every portion . or North-Western Pennsylvania. ONE of the best docnments we Have read in many a day - is the inaugural addreis of Hon. It. U. Palmer, the nity Democratic Mayor of Corry. It is modest iri, tone, and practical in its, suggestions, and fully exist/des the confidence reposed in its author by, the people of that city: NVti notice by the Cleveland papers, that between 600 and 800 railroad men and ma chinists are on a strike in that city.- The strike is in opposition to the reduetion of wages in the shops of the Cleveland* Pitts burgh, Cleveland & Erie, Cleveland, Colum bus & Cincinnati, and 3laboning railroads, and McNary, Claflin & Co.'s shop. - A n.i.r and overcoat belonging to abciarder were taken (by mistake, probably) from the hall of a house in State street in 'the' early part of last week. Presuplipg that theparty having them in possession at present is more in need of them than the owner, the latter offers to:give him 'OA cfriket to the„same, provided lie will return the papers contained in the coat pockets. THE Warren Ledger says 4the.3lail's siory that Mr. Scofield declined - being Ccantlidate for U. S. Senator, when urged by the Rat% cal delegation, "is considered by those best acquainted with the Honorable gentleman's political aspirations, as being the greatest sell of the season. The article should have been dated on All Fools' Day, and then its ridiculousness would have been better ap preciated." ONE of the prisoners in the jail, who watt let out temporarily to work in the barn, took to his heels last week, and escaped to his former place of residence. lie was followed, captured, and securely placed in "durance vile" again. Some two months ago, a priso ner allowed. to .go out of , !doors upon.an errand, was seized with absence of mind, and forgot to return. He has never been heard of since. Tut two Radical editors in Cony have a happy time. Lasr week, a Grant campaign club was organized, and both of them were placed upon the committee to report officers. Pahl, of the Telegraph, declined serving, for the reason that he couldn't act with Pratt, of the Republican, under any circumstances, and another person was substituted. Pratt says he "felt awfully," but at last reports he was not considered dangerous. Tae Democrats of West Mill Creek made a considerable reduction in the Radical ma• jority at the March election, and came near electing several of their candidates. A truer hearted or more vigilant set of Democrats than some of those of West 31111 Creek can not be'met in any portion of the county. We wish the spirit they display was more com mon among our party friends in this section. Tue terulof the late landlord of Brown's Hotel having expired, and no party taking:a lease of the property, the house has been temporarily closed. Several persons have made application, to lease it, but it Is not yet known into whlise hands it may fall, not when it will re-open. We trust that'when the Hotel is again thrown t open to the pub lic it will be under such auspices as will re it from the bad reputation it has bad for a number.of years past. As the chief qualification of Gen. Grant for the Presidency appears to be that he can "talk horse," it is proposed that the respec tive claims ofhimselfand Dan Rice be decided on that issue. The suggestion . is, that each deliver a lecture of an hour or two before ti public assembly in New York city, and that at the close they give a practical illustration of their skill in the management of the noble beast, by riding three times around the ring, bare-backed. Whichever does the best, to be pronounced the Presidential nominee, and elected by acclamation. . Oun readers cannot have failed to notice the heavy advertising patronage which the Observer has been receiving for some time past. The fact is becoming generally known that our circulation is the largest in the city, and business men of both parties are eager to avail themselves of its advantages. The ap pearance of a number of county advertise ments, proves, that the bigotrl which pre vailed during the war is, rapidly passing away, and We are in hopes that by another year all of tills class of public patronage will be so published as to reach,every voter, in terestedors'the law intende, and justice 're quires. A CORIIESPOICIDEST of ,the Aepublican urges the sale of ttr i e'll'oor"Hottse Farm hr parcels of Sire or ten acres, the, purchase of another farm In some location where land is cheaper, and away from the main routes of travel, and the application of the remaining proceeds to, the buildieg of. a new Poor House. He plausibly arm; that by cutting up the farm into small tracts a larger sum could be realized than if it were sold bodily, and that the purchase money would go a considerable way towards erecting the neces sary buildings: The idea of selling the farm is growing in favor, and we believe it would receive the support of a majority of the voters. -Tnz Gazette demands of the Radical Co. .Committee that it shall take early steps for holding the primary elections of the party. It urges that Erie county should lead off in the selection of a Congressional candidate, and claims that whoever shoi agrees, upon will be accepted by ill() balance- of the. dis trict.
