1 : , grfje (frmlw post, Tuesday, Jnna 10th, 1873. Loyalty We are often amused at the assertion of our democratic friend when they get npon the subject of "loyalty." To their mind, it mnst have a Tery broad scope. They declare in one breath that they are loyal to tht Gorernment and in the next adTOcate the principles dia metrically opposed to the perpetuity of the Union. This is not our idea ot tne meaning of the word. We are of those ho believe that those who favored the Confederate Cause, were disloyal to the OoTernment,and that after the question bad been decided bj the nignest law known m the world-the eword-then those who furrendered in good faith and aided to restore the Goternment were loyal to it. This is, in our opin ion, the true definition of the term. It has been ridiculed and sneered at in the South until it has "become a by-word and a reproach, but to our mind, it is still the cornerstone of our country, our whole country. It matters little to us, whether a man served in the Confeder ate army during the war, if be is willing to abide by the disposition of the ques tion and go to work as behooyes all nn citizens now. This does not by any means require a person to support the present administration. That is comparatirely speaking of small im portance, but it does require an acqui escence in the results of the war and a support of the Constitution and laws while they are on the statute book. During the campaigns ot '63 and '72, it has been our lot to edit a Republican paper in this State, and we do not think we have ever condemned a man for serving in the Confederate army, except the men who were educated at Gorernment institutions and who, after serving for years, during a time of peace, threw up their commissions in 1861 when their services were most needed, to fight against the GoTernment which had educated and supported them. We are fully aware of the argu ments advanced by these gentlemen, in snpport ot their positions, and we will admit that they were honest in their of dutv-that they owed their al legiance to their native States instead ol the federal Govornment but at the same time, we must confess it passes our comprehension hew educated sol diers could bring themselves to such a suicidal doctrine. The StatesTille Intelligencer takes us to task for our remarks about the ap pointment of Gen. HilPs son to West Point. We would like to quote the article entire, but as it is over a column long, we will bare to omit it. We beg to reply to some of the statements, how exer. We stated we were surprised, not at the appointment of young Hill, but that bis father, who has penned such bitter articles against the Govern ment, should permit him to be sworn Into the defence of that Government. This is not based on the fact that Grant and his satellites constitute the Government," but, as we explained above, in our opinion, when a man is educated at the expense of the Govern ment, and carefully trained in the art of war, in order to defend it if occasion requires, he should never violate his oath of allegiance and draw the sword his country has given him, against that country, and we sincerely hoped that the young man would prove true to the flsg he expected to swear to support. The Intelligencer says : We never saw the day nor the hour when we were disloyal to the true prin ciples which we have been taught under lie the real character of our government, and we opine that Gen. Hill can say the Bame thing, and we denounce as narrow minded and with scorn the unjust in sinuations ot disloyalty to govern ment," because we cannot shout ourself hoarse over the downfall and crusning out of the very principles which consti tute the essence of our constitutional government. Our 'oyalty is not of that kind that can be estimated by 44 loaves and fishes." We suppose from this extract that it is claimed that Gen. Hill was " loyal " while fighting for the Confederacy. If this is the proper construction to be placed upon the paragraph, all we have to say is, we do not understand that kind of loyalty. We believe in the Union, We are a native of New York State, and if that State should pass an act of accession, and attempt to make war upon the Federal Government, we would offer our services to go and whip hex back into the Union where she be longs. This is no new doctrine with us. Dwtog tte etmpriko- of 18C0, when tbe flafo.

We want a strong i;f;n nf nnwer. bo that we will We ftnt & strong hear no more ot secession in the tuture.

And to make all this lasting and permanent, we want MIX blUa IMMUJ ' the youth of this country, who go to Wit Point, to feel, and to be thorough- W indoctrinated witb the importance ijuiuu of loyalty, not to a single State, but to the whole Union of States, ana mac 11 is treason to fight against the flag they are learning to support. Loyalty to the Gorernment, and loy alty to the Administration, are two yery different things ; but if we cotild be willing to support the Government when such men as Buchanan, Floyd, Jeff Davis et al. were at the head oi it, becan.0 it ibe duty of citizenship, w. belieye the people of the South can tit nro do so now tor the same reason, we are loyal to the Government and to the Administration. We don't care whether Gen. Hill or his son support the latter . Knf a intend hereafter to Vi UUk, tJi vr v; I Und by the former ? That is the im- portant question. Let us caucaie do more men in onr national academies to draw their swords otherwise than in defense of that Government. EDITORIAL BUDGET. The Matamoras Vex Publico, government organ, in an editorial headed "Invasion," severely criticizes Col MacKenzie's expedition into Mexi -co in pursuit of the Kickapoo Indians, denounces the act as an aggression com mitted upon a nation too weak to resist and intended to serve as a pretext to seize additional territory. The govern ment ot Mexico is urged to exact im meediate reparation for this violation of her sovereignty, and the article con cludes by saying it the demand is not complied with it will be found that the Mexico of to day is not the Mexico of 1846. It is supposed that this article reflects the aeotiments o . g" ment. received irom tbe city of Mexico by telegraph, and is put forward to test the feeling of the people or tne ironuer Mexican States. The following items of information, derWed from competent authority, con cerning members of the Polaris expedi tion, now at the navy yard, ana specially relating to the Esquimaux rescued irom the ice floe by the Tigress, will be ea gerly read. Esquimaux Joe and his friends, natives of Greenland, find the warm weather of this latitude exceed ingly hard to bear, and, their examina tion here haying been concluded, they will be sent on the Tallapoosa to New York, and theece by rail to a cool, moun tain retreat in the north ot Maine, where they will probably remain until an op portunity occurs to send them home. They can stand the rigors of Greenland but this climate is altogether too much for them: A party of native Greenland era, trying to find the mouth of theMis iwippi, would be as likely to perish as a party ot Americans in trying to find thn onen Polar Sea. Tn in a married man. and has his wife with him and one child. All the English Joe can speak is 44 Yes " and "Mo " It is utterly impossible for him to form a connected sentence in English, or to convey in our language an lntelli- cent idea. All reports of interviews with him are consequently false. But Joe haa proved himself a faithful and consciencious servant. Captain fiall s writing desk, containing his official pa pers, and including full and specific notes of the Polaris expedition, was brought to Washington by Joe and de livered to Secretary Robeson. This 'desk was entrusted to the care and custody of Joe by Captain Hall at the time he waa taken ill. The Captain cave to Joe special instructions that in Cfcse be should die he should deliver the I desk and its contents to the Secretary of the Navy. Joe promised to faithfully perform this duty, and in all the trying scenes and dreadful exposures through which the eastaways passed from tbe time of their separation from the Polaris to tbe day ot their rescue by the Tigress, this desk was the object ot JoeTs unre mitting care. The contents of the desk are regarded 13 yery important, and as forming an invaluable link in the history of the Po laris expedition. The Government authorities have in preparation an official statement of the deductions made from the testimony re cently given by Captain Tyson and oth- Ucb will oon be oad.
