Carl Shurz, whilst travelling through
the South upon a special mission from
the Government, is writing letters to
n Northern paper, the tone of which
letters, it is believed, is calculated to
do more injury than the Shurz mission
is likely to do good. The intention
of the Government when Shurz was
sent to the South was to have him
quietly perform his mission and make
an official report to the War Depart
ment.

Bishop Coke, OF Nevvs York. ON Re-
union OF the Episcopal Church.
Having given the Bishop of Geor-
gia's views, we give the following ex-
tract from Bishop Coxe's Diocesan
Address:
The question arises as to the resto-
ration of legislative unity with our
brethren Of the South. Essential
unity has n r been for a minute sus-
pended; andShow, it seems to me,
that nearly all questions between us
and them will be settled by the calling
of the roll of the Convention, and by
their appearing and answering totheir
names. The case of the Bishop of
Alabama, elected and consecrated dur
ing the war, admits of no doubt and
presents no great difficulty. The va
idity of his consecration is acknow-
ledged; but certain measures will be
necessary, rs in the case of Bishop
Seabury, who was consecrated in Scot
land, to give the new Bishop canon
ical position. In due time, we cannot
doubt our Southern brethren will all
be found again in their places, and
how shall they be received? Can there
be any question? How was it in the day
when all Israel was restored to David?
''Sha]l there be any man put to death
this day in Israel?'' If our brethren
have erred, surely they have suffered;
if any punishment is to be meted out
to them, let us rejoice that the State,
and not the Church, is the minister of
wrath. It is our blessed privilege to
forgive, and as Christians, at least to
remember no more what we commit
ted to Gods arbitration, and what, in
his Providence, is settled and gone
by. On the great national questions
that divided us, no man felt more
deeply, nobody acted more conscien-
tiously, than myself. I felt that there
could be but one issue to the war, con-
sistent with truth and justice, the
cause of humanity and of our holy re-
igion. But, 1 trust such convictions
were not polluted by resentful i'm
pulses, nor by worse instincts of re-
venge, hatred and malice. And now,
when all is over, what can Christian
find within him but q warm revival of
old affections and friendships, and a
longing for the old fraternal counsels
and communing. Let the power of
our religion be seen and felt by all our
-countryIAen. Let us address our
selves to the new and trying emergen-
cies created by the new condition of
things in the Southern States. Let
us feel that such is the highest service
we can now render to our country,
and that it is in our power, as o
Church, to do more, perhaps, than
Others in this way. And as nature has
begun already to cover over the red
fields of war with her peaceful harvests
and her refreshing verdure, so let
grace mantle the past with charity,
and make the infirmities of men give
place to the fruits of the Spirits.

THE PREs1DENr's LATE PRocLAMAr1oN-
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Times writes:
+ "There is general misapprehension as 10
that part of the Presidents proclamation pub
lished this morning, which withdraws restric-
tons upon trade Very few persons understand
the proclamation as affecting the act of Congress
which provides for the payment of twenty-five
per cent. of the products to the government.
The proclamation is intended and does entirely
wipe out the twenty-five per cent. clause, and
totally abolishes the Treasury special agency for
the purchase of products for the government,
and puts an end to the cotton agents. The oc-
cupation Of these agents is gone-their term of
service expired yesterday-and now cotton and
the other products of the States recently in re-
bellion will move forward to the markets unre-
stricted, and subject only to such custom house
regulations and internal revenue taxation as is
imposed upon the products of other States.
