OANRY'S CAPER.
Ron the NJ Y. World.

From the ~ Y. World
Commandant Canby's attempt to force the
test OATH or iron-clad, on the members elect
of the Virginia Legislature, brings foroibly to
mind the absurdity of that blot upon our sta
tute-boQk. In its essence, the test-oath simply
amounts to this:-That no man in the 'late
Rebel States isto hold office ifhe at any time
was in sympathy with or rendered aid to said
States during the war. Now, as office, under
our form of government is but representa-
ton, and as representation is the bodying
forth IN lctt0 of the people at large, it follows
that the test oath is a mere means to erect in
the Southern States a close communion of loil
men. Such a communion throughout the
South, every lost soul of them in office, may
be n very good thing for the retention in power
of that colossal incubus known as the radical
party but.it is a question whether it is equal
ly as good for the country at large. The well
fare Of the whole is best sub
served by the welfare OF the
several parts making the whole, and 1t is
folly to expect the States Of the South to
prosper as well as they might so long as their
public business is required to be transacted
by men whose only qualification is that they
are not properly qualified TO transact it at ALL
To require the members of theVirglnia Legis-
lature to swear that they never sided with Vir-
gnia, from 1861 to 1863, is the same as to re-
Qulre lne members OF the Legislature OF Iowa
TO swear that they never sided with Iowa dur
ing that period We say it is the same; for
all the clap-trap about rebellion, the great
heart of the nation, prescription, elal rights,
and so on, TO the contrary notwithstanding
the plain issue in either case is that no man
SHALL as a legislator, deal with the resultant
issues of the war, who, during the war, was in a
position to know, personally the deeds, tenn
per, history, and opinions of his State. What
chance would an 1861 secessionist-who would
have been pretty apt to have been hustled
out of Iowa in that year, and equally apt to
have kept out till 1S65-what chance would
ne have to properly enact the part of a mem
Der of the Legislature of that State? How
could he know the contemporary history of
his constituency for his four years of absence?
How possess their confidence after his four
years of bitter estrangement? 1t would be
monstrous to force a whole Legislature full of
such men on Iowa; and yet just this mon
strosity this trickster Candy is seeking, by
means OF the test-oath, to perpetrate in Vir-
ginia. The whole thing is wrong-the rule
and the instance. Representation, to be re-
presentation, must be free. 1t will then
seek its fitting channel; loil men will repre-
sent loil men, Rebels, Rebels; the sheep,
sheep; and the goats, goats.

Mr.. II. ]. Raymond's fatal illness
was the first sickness he had had dur
ing his eighteen years editorship OF the
Times. His friends say he had of late
exhibited a tendency to apopleSy, but
had no expectation OF such an attack.
He had been troubled during the five
weeks past with stifening OF his
fingers after long writing, and fearing
a rhumatic attack he obtained medical
advice, and lived very abstemiously.
Two DAYS before his death as he was
riding towards his office, he remarked
that he never felt more, like writing
than then. That day he wrote the
greater portion of the Times edltot1al
page, and displayed his usual vtgor
and resource.

INTENSE REVENUE FRAUDS.
Seizure OF Distlllery ncar Baltimore

Seizure OF q Distillery near Baltimore.
WASHINGTON, June 18.
One of the largest seizures made un-
der the Internal Revenue Laws, and
probably the largest of the class in the
United States, has just been effected in
Baltimore. A system OF organized
fraud has, for many months. been prac-
ticed by the Ullmans, who own the
largest distillery in this country, and
the frauds they have committed, under
the knowledge and cowardice OF officers
of the Revenue Bureau, will amount it
is thoRght, to several thousand dollars.
a knowledge of the frauds has only
recently come to Commissioner DelRnO.
Officers sent to the distillery to fnVesti-
gate into affairs, report that the facili-
ties for fraud were the most perfect they
had ever known. 1t was discovered
that the owners had violated every sec.
tion of the revenue laws pertaining to
the manufacture Of spirits, and that the
frauds extended back for a long period.
The Ullmans did very extensive and
profitable business in the compound
ing OF liquors, making old whisky out
or new, preparing peach brandy, DC.
The establishment in all its parts is re-
presented to be the most complete in
the country. The buildings alone are
valued at a hundred thousand dollars.
The evidence is SO perfect that 1t will
be impossible for the owners to evade
the law relating to the seizure. All OF
the revenue officers responsible for the
honest management of the distillery
have been superseded, and the Com
missioner is rigidly prosecuting them.
There is no doubt the frauds were per-
petrated with their full knowledge and
consent. Several store-keepers and
gaugers were indicted by the grand
jury to-day.

The Debate on the Irish Church Bill
1t is Passed TO Second Reading.
LONDON, June Is.
night on the Irish Church bill creates
Intense interest. There is determine
ton TO force division, but IL is not ex-
pected before 4 O'Clock in the morning.
The chamber was crowded with specta-
tors. Among those present were the
Prince OF Wales and Duke of Cam
bridge, and 1t is apparently their inten.
tlon to sit out tho debate. The best cal
culation made is that the bill will be
ordered 10 O second reading by from 12
to % majority. The general belief is
that the House of Lords will strip the
bill Of its disendowment features, and
leave dissstablishment only. This is
likely TO prove more embarrassing to
the ministry than direct rejection of
the bill, The rumors are revived here
OF an attempt to drive John Bright from
the Cabinet.
LONDON, June 10.
In the Honse OF Lords after the close
OF the report last night, Lord Carus
spoke against and Lord Hatherly and
Earl Granville In favor OF the bill,
amid great excitement. The House at

vote: For 179, against 146.
