for this bcurty welcome to Virginia,
wbere be always folt welcome, and wbosc
brave nion were only excelled in tbeir
deeds l y tlie bravery nud devotion of
tbo women whose soul and beroism
throughout the war lu< highly praised,
lie spoke of the object of the Historical
Society, aud said that to write true bis
tory it must be dotio by Southern men
who knew facts, nud that the material
must be gathered for the purpose South.
Tho uctiou of the South iu the war, and
the many causes that brought it on,might
lie fairly laid before mankind, liespok
of old Jubal Eirly as one who was uvcr
faithful throughout the war, and us being
the propnr m.ui to carry out this grand
! object. Ho ; iid we had bceu uiore
! cheated tliuu conquered by the tieclarn-
I lions of the Federal president. Congress,
| r.ud Ocuorul Grunt; for there never
| could have been a surrender bad we an-
ticipated what followed, and wo could,
to a«jr, lm-. e been free, Hs ' till had hope
of the South, becaus., Tyliotcvcr th' men
might be, he had never j et seen a recon-
structed woman, und while tho power of
the day was mighter than the principles
for which they bnd struggled, yet ho
hoped the children who succeed oil them
would grow to maintain and perpotuato
them and redeem all that wo bad lost.
Mr, Davis' remarks contained uo sen-
timents of hostility to tbe Federal gov-
ernment, but evinced an earnest devo-
tion to constitutional liberty, for which
tbe South had struggled. Ii wnslintenod
to with doop iutcii.st and frequently up
pimpled.
A resolution was oITi ied by Admiral
He mines that bis excellency, President
Gr uit, bo ri qinsted to permit t tin secre-
tary of this society to esamino all the
paper', tho nrohives, captured by the
Icderal forcis from tl.o confederates ilur-
iugiho war, and to mnko copies of such
of them ns lie mnv tbiuk lit, was adopted.
The conve'ition then ndj urncd, and the
Historical Hocic'y nit and adopted a
of thu District Courts of thin Wtute to
make and keep in their nff.oon it register
of nil persons born iu their respective
coiiutie.".
Slit:. 2. llo it further nnncted, That
iu order to enable thu several clerks to
perform tho duty prescribed in thu llrst
sectiou ol this uct, it is hereby made thu
duty of thii^ several County or l'olicu
Courts of this State to furuish thu clerks
with well bound books, with nppropiate
headings, and properly ruled into
eolnnii'.'. That said book shall be so
ruled as t'. have ouo column for the
unme of the person to bo rgtstcred J ouo
column for tbo names uf thu father aud
mother * ono column for date of births ;
one column for tin color cf tho parouts,
and one column for eex.
Ski . Ii lie it further cnaotrd, That it
shall bo tho duty of the father aud
motlu r to have tbo registry of all chil-
eruu born unto them, after iho passage
ol this uct, registered, us provided for in
acccud section of thi'J act, with'u six
mouths after such birth , and any father
or mother, guardian or person, having
charge of such child, neglecting tho por-
formancu of thu duty prescribed iu this
OFF WITH THEIU HEADS.
Davis will now renew bis dcmaa.l for
tho removal of those Federal cftlciula in
this State who h. ppeu to be obuoxionu
to him, und tho uctiou of tho Dullns c .
vcntlou has rendered him " maater ol

uono but ItepublicuUB must expeot to
