A GREAT MISTAKE.

It is stated that Postmaster General
Creswen expresses the opinion that Con-
grcss made a great mistake in failing to
pass the Law authorizing the granting Of
American registers to foreign-built vessels.
The immediate effect OF such Law would
have been the transfer to American citi-
zens of at least twenty steamships belong
ing to the Bremen and Hamburg lines, con-
tinuing those lines in active service, and
transferring to our own people tho profits
Of tho business, hitherto reaped by foreign
crs- Had the transfer been made, Ar.
Creswen thinks that j. would have re-
quised at least two years after declaration
Of ponce for the Germans to replace these
steamerH-
Mr.. C1eswell is right in the opinion
that the refusal to pass the law Was mis-
/ take; hut the mistake is one Of long stand
ing, and ought To have been corrected
years ago. A greater blunder is the prohi.
tition placed upon the building Of Ame1i.
