BURRITT ADVOGATE OF LOW POSTAG [ofluential in Bringing Down Trans-Ocean Carrying Cost Elihu Burritt's dream of univefsal peace can by no stretch of imagi- | nation be said to have been realised, but one of the movements ‘nci- | dental to his crusade for human !brothernood has bécn achieved. The successful campaign has been that for cheap trans-oceanic postage, which New Britain's “learned black- smith” considered as a step toward and contributory factor of univeraal peace. Until the period when Elihu Burritt became active in internation- alist movements no reduction in postage across th2 Atlantic had been thade since the first colonies had been established in America, but the rates have now been slashed and sliced until a ietter may be sent to Great Britain for 1-12 what it did in the middle of the 19th eentury.
