The TnsT OAfH.-Mr: Lincoln's 8
Attorney. General, Honorable Edward
Bates, of Missouri, published letter
in the Missouri Republican, in which
he gives his opinion of the Con-
gressional test oath. He says:
Test oaths, odious, oppressive and
cowardly always, arc always tie re-
sort of desperate parties who (as
violent as timidity can make them)
seize upon method to weaken their
adversaries, whom they are afraid to
meet In fair and open controversy.
1t was of frequent occurrence during
the French revolution, and one re-
aarkable instance has been preserved
for our instruction by the great his
torian of that epoch. The two legis-
lative councils-the Ancients and the
Five Hundred-imputing to their
adversaries the crime of royalisnl,
hoped by an adroit trick to get rid of
their presence in the councils, and
their influence with the people. And
so, in the forged name of Republi-
canism, they decreed that all the
members of the councils should, on q
certain day, take an oath of hatred
to royalty. The opposition quite as
good Republicans, in fact, as their
hypocritical oppressors) resisted, as
best they could, complained and pro-
tested-but they took the oath-for
they had no notion of deserting their
place in the Government, md thus
leaving their unprincipled ADVERSE
ries, unresisted, to work out their
wicked will in the mis-governmento of
the country. And the philosophic
historian dismisses the subject with
this brief remark: s'This formality of
an oath, so frequently employed by
parties, never could be considered as
a guaranty; it has never been any
thing but an annoyance of the con
querors, who have taken delight in
forcing the conquered to perjure
themselves.
Justice-that was the crafty policy
of the French Revolutionary radi-
cals-and our revolutionary radicals
do but follow their example And
we may indulge the hope that the
reign of our radicals will be made as
brief rs that of their great examples,
and by the same cause-their follies
and their crimes. Your friend,
EDWARD BATES.

The SUGAR OF LoUIsIANA.-Al late
letter from n ew Orleans thus shows
the operation of the present labor
system upon the best sugar lands in
the country-not we'll suited for any
thing else. The crop in the State, it
is shown, is about one-f -fftieth of what
it was before the war, say 5000 hhds.
We quote:
I'm the case Of Mr.. Burnside,
whose crop before the war exceeded
5000 hhds., and is now reduced to
400 hhds. And this upon the same
plantation, with two-t thirds of the
same laborers. The crop of Mr..
Walker, another large planter, has
been reduced from 600 to 30 hhds.
cultivated on the same plantation,
and with the same proportion of la
borers. This shows a decline of some
lnasmuch as the price has been en-
hanced some 400 per cent, the value
of these products has not been re-
duced in similar proportion"

WORTHY OF 1siirArtoS: "A newspss

WORTHY OF tMiirArfoN: "A newspss
per correspondent records an act di
President johnson, which presents
strange contrast to the conduct Of
those radicals who are for crucifying
the Southern leaders for a mere differ
ence of political opinion.
According to the statement of this
letter writer, the President, in his
early political career, incurred the
displeasure and opposition of a dis
tinguished and wealthy citizen of East
Tennessee, who treated him in a
naughty and indignantmanner which
the President never forgot. The cor
respondent adds:
In all his successes he remem-
bered the bitter opposition and hatred
of other years, and when lie became
Military Governor of Tennessee, he
improved the opportunity, and made
this man feel his power and influence.
The war had nearly ended, when this
naughty rebel for such he proved)
asked for pardon. Johnson protested,
and President Lincoln refused. Too
high-spirited to sue for the pardon,
this rebel despaired, for his lifelong
opponent was in the ascendancy, and
his property, and perhaps his person,
was at his mercy. His only hope was
the justice, or rather mercy, of Pre-
sident Lincoln. But that hope was
dispelled when his assassination ele-
vated the Vice-President. No further
effort was made, for his cause seemed
hopeless. The humble tailor of Green
vile was President of the United
States the lordly gentleman was
of high reputation in his profession,
as man, unblemished in character,
of large estate, hut with the crime of
treason overhanging him. Not long
since, there came to him in the hand
writing of Andrew johnson, the man
he had always contemned, with the
great seal of the United States, full,
free pardon for all Offences commit
ted in aid of the late rebellion y
Thus did this man from the people
teach to his lifelong opponent tile
great lesson-forgive and forget.

A VOICE FOR MERCY. New
York Commercial Adcertise7, a Re-
publican paper, criticises quite Sc
verely the concluding portion of the
reply OF Mr.. Attorney-Gene Speed
to the Senate resolution in regard to
the trial of Mr.. Davis. We quote as
follows:
Thank God ! the men who have
I'D tbA1r lives in this war are
tired Of carnage, and want no more
butchery. Grantand Sherman, with
their pleas for mercy, are worth
whole regiment of stay -at-home doc
trinaires. It lis rather late in the day
for the punishment of men who sur
rendered months ago, and every sue
cessive day reduces the number Of
the blood-thirsty, while it adds to
the blind ferocity of the few implaca-
bic that remain"

The New York Times, in noticing
the manifesto of an officer of the
Freedmsn's Bureau in Virginia,
threatening punishment of such Vir-
ginia planters as do not support their
former slaves who are aged and in
firm, says:
eve had supposed that the utmost
extent to which it was necessary for a
