that it is the intention of the British
Government to establish, if possible,
daily post with this country-tEat is, to
send a swift mail steamer from Liver
pool every day in the week, by which

In order to make this real boon to the
public, the postage, which is now twenty
. four cents for each letter weighing less

The Test Oath.

The Cincinnati Gazette, the leading Repub-
lican paper in Ohio, comes out against the
Congressional test oath, and discourses in the
following sensible manner:
There are but few of the men of character
Of the South who did not go into the war Of
rebellion. The test rules out nearly the whole
Of that class who have the greatest interest
in restoring tranquility, and who are most
prompt to accept the results Of the war We
pay due regard to the noble exceptions, but
even they will admit that nearly all the brains
and character of the South went zealously
into rebellion. If, as we have" maintained,
these are most ready to cooperate in settling
the disturbance Of war on the conditions the
victor has laid down, the test oath not only
rules out the men of brains and character,
but the class most influential to restore tram
guilty
The rule would be just, if the same Justice
was carried out in all the treatment of the
late rebels, but it is not so carried out, and it
does not answer the end for which it was
made There are rebel leaders the Govern
ment had better have in Congress than some
of the so-caled Union men Of the South;
better than many Of those who applaud Mr..
Johnsons 22d of February speech AleXan-
der II. Stephens would be better Senator for
maintaining the Government in loyalty than
some of the Democratic Senators from the
North. So would General Lee And JEFF
ferson Davis, whether converted in sentiment
or not would be no worse in principle than
some the North has sent, and would be more
respectable.
Mr.. Sherman made mistake in policy as
well as fact when he said in his Bridgeport
speech that Mr. johnson would never con-
sent that unrepentant rebels like Stephens, OF
Georgia, shall come back and take their pla-
ces and make laws for the people of the
United States for Mr.. Stephens is as good
man as we can get from Georgia, from any
men of sufficient standing to be elected Sena-
tor, and Mr.. johnson has, since his election
as Senator, released him from his parole
which implies the coming of full amnesty,
if it is not already granted. And so it
should be, for it would be injustice without
reason TO except Stephens from an amnesty
which has included so many worse men.
We need in the settlement of disturbances
in the South, the aid of the leaders Of society
who are most interested in such reservations.
Rules excluding classes, whether by property
OF active service in rebellion, are imperfect
whether for the settlement of society or ex-
Guiding justice. What we need is general
conditions for tho settlement of political rela-
lions, not the ostracism OF individuals or
classes. With these coupled with, and the
cooperation of 'thc conscious intelligent"
classes in the South secured, and the econom-
ical forces thus brought into full play, we can
afford general amnesty-a thing which has
already forgone by the treaty of the disband-
ment of the rebel armies, the remission to
the people, and the loose use of the pardon
ing power in the excepted class.
