mittee. There seems to be no doubt
that the majority of the House are in
favor OF the relief, as they are disposed
to restore better feeling, and remove
as far as they can all traces OF discon.
tent growing out of the late war. Suoh
bill will enable the Postmaster Gen

required; whereas, at present. he is re-
etricted in bis selections to those who
can take the test onth, not few of the

the way OF compensation, and being
more especially for the convenience OF
sparsely settled Sosthern neighbor-
hoods. Persons excluded from pen
sions, by reason of having aided or
conntenanced the rebellion, will, to q
limited extent. be restored. Such bill
will also enable persons of competent
means to contract for carrying the mails
In the South, and relieve others now
excluded from public service on ac-
count OF political disabilities.
