Ex-MAYoR BzRRET.-The order for Mayor Ber-
ret's release from confinement In Fort Lafayette,
mentioned elsewhere In the Star to-day, shows
that while the authorities realize the necessity of
taking due care that disloyalty finds no resting
place In the municipal government of the Federal
Metropolis threatened as 1t is by the rebels on the
other side Of the Potomac they nevertheless enter
tain no wish to Cypress any one personally.
While there are many whom they cannot safely
trust In positions wherein their action might pos
sioiy prove dangerous to the cause Of the Union
a. involved In the current war, It Is evident that
they are disposed to deal with them as loyal cit
1ens 20 long a. they refrain from acts that amount
