= THE TEST OATH.-Gen. Grant sent a
letter to the House recently, enclosing a
communication from Gen. Candy, who
says that in his Judgment some action
by Congressswill beneeded in order to
remove one of the most serious impede
ments that has been raised which, in
the execution of the reconstruction laws,
has grown out of the enforcement of
the provision requiring all appointees
of the district commander to take what
is known as the test oath. In both the
States of North and South Carolina,
men, active and jealous friends of the
Union and of restoration, have been
technically debarred by this oath from
any official participation in the work of
reconstruction, while many others who
would have taken the oath; dec incl 20
do SO from sensitive fear That their
motives would be WISCONSIN, ed. A
large number from this class have been
chosen to office at the recent elections,
and the difficulties heretofore encoun-
tered again present themselves In both
States in greater magnitude. To con-
tinue the disabilities which exclude
these persons is to deprive the Govern
ment still further of the services of in
telligent and well-disposed men, whose
technical disqualifications is their only
fault, aud whose aid is essentially impor-
tant to the speedy organization and sue
cessful working of the new State gov
ernments. Theremoval of the disabilities
while it will not jeopardize any interest
which it is the policy of the Government
to conserve and foster, will, in General
Canby's Judgment, not only meet the
approval of large majority of the peo-
pie of tue two States, but will disarm
much of the opposition which the new
State governments must expect to en-
and contribute generally to the
success of the work of recon
struction.

The river opposite this point came to
stand on Sunday, having risen in all
lO4 feet, lacking fraction over 8 feet of
being as high as the last rise. We have
no reliable information from above the
raft higher up than Long Prairie, where
the river was reported falling slowly
last Friday. The small rise spoken of
by the officers of the Gossamer has come
and gone. The Jimplecute of last Fri
day reports the bayou at Jefferson
rather on the rise. We have not re-
ceived mail from the country border
ing on Red River, above Sulpher, for a
number OF weeks, owing either to the
high water or the disarrangement of
the mails. 1t is moro than likely that
the heavy rains reported on the upper
river fell on the South side and run off
towards the gulf, or we should have felt
them ere this by the way of the river.
Another reason which makes us think
so is the valley of the river on the South
side being narrow, and all the streams
leading to the gulf bank full and run
ming over. There is no doubt but what
very heavy rains have fallen, but suffi-
cient time has elapsed for the water to
reach us if it had started out this way.
We are inclined to. think it has found a
shorter way to the gulf. The planta-
tions in this vicinity on the Caddo side
of the river, with few exceptions, have
escaped overflow, while the Bossier side
has suffered severely both above and
below here.
We have now in the New Orleans
trade but three packets, while Jefferson
has five-the latter dividing our bust
ness with the regulars" Most of them
get fair up trips, but go out compare
lively light. Making both ends meet is
designated as a ''bully trip.'--T Shreve-

We understand that the Chairman of
the Board of Registration appointed by
the State Constitutional Convention
have addressed a communication to Gen.
Buchanan asking to be furnished with
duplicates of the total votes cast at the
late election, so that they could promul-
gate the same. Gen. Buchanan replied
that he reserved to himself the right to
make the official PRONUNCIATION of the
election, and that he should exercise it
so soon as the board of officers appoint
ed by him had completed the compila-
ton of the returns. We understand
that the board will have finished their
