Without intending in the least to question the
wisdom or necessity of the policy hitherto pur.
sued with regard to the trade of the Mississippi,
we may express the hope that it will very soon
be found consistent withthe Nations well-being
to remove or greatly modify the resolutions that
now ietter aud limit Ihat trade. We do not
forget that the Government must take care that,
through traitors or rogues in tie districts re-
stored to the Union, the Rebel armies shall lot
be clothed, SLod, and perhaps also il part
armed and fed, by candestine importations from
the loyal States. Better that no trade at all be
permitted between those States and the recoy-
cred portion of the seeded States, than that
this vital sueeor to still. rampant treason be per-
mitted.
But efforts are now being, or are about to be,
made TO restore Tennessee, Louisiana, and
Arkansas TO the privileges and franchises they
abdicated by rebellion and it seems greatly
desirable that their people should, 20 soon and
so far as possible, be thoreupon treated and
regarded as every way our brethren. The rule
