newspapers and the elaborate and ponderous treaties TO

A QUAKER's IDEA OF LoYALTY.--One of the
witnesses on the part of the defence in the trea-
son trials now going on in Philadelphia, Qua
ker, having certified that he considered Hama
way the prisoner to be "loyal citizen" was
asked by the counsel what he considered
"loyal Citizen" whereupon he replied 81
consider man loyal who obeys the laws of his
country, except 80 far as his sentiments might
require its repeal. consider myself loyal but
if my country asked me to fight an enemy i
should not do it." When such ideas of loyalty
are held, no wonder that such strange notions
of law and justice prevail. Meas.
This Quaker should have the advantage of
right Interpretation. He makes-or ut least
his class does--a difference between active and
passive obedience. Active obedience to the
laws of ones country has always been thing
excepted by the society of Friends, as in the
instance quoted; and they are right. We're
their assumption denied, there could be no
Christians in Turkey, no Protestants in Spain,
and no anti-tobacco smokers in Rome That
man cannot be compelled to what he believes
to be wrong must be admitted, or there is no
freedom. The definition of the witness is in
harmony with this.
But active opposition to the laws is altogether
q different matter. Thus a man may be averse
to capital punishment, and may therefore with
hold his aid and his countenance from the con-
viction of the criminal and his execution. This
is an important matter, in which he is account
able to his God alone. But he may not inter-
fere with the ministers of the law, by whose
agency its vengeance is to be accomplished. He
is not responsible for their deeds, and would be
guilty of great wrong in forcibly opposing them
in the performance of their solemn duty The
case in point is parallel. He who believes
slavery to be wrong is not bound to do any act
to promote it; but the moment he interferes
with the rights of slave owners, under the laws
of their country, in either aiding the slaves to
escape, or preventing their arrest, that moment
he is guilty of active opposition to the laws of
his country and subject to the penalties they
impose.
A right understanding of this subject would
save much trouble and anxiety to our common
country.

DAILY MAIL TO NoRroLK.--We learn from
the "Heyald," Of Saturday last, that misap-
prehenson has existed ON this subject---that
the Department here had made an offer to the
Bay line for daily mail, and had communica-
ted this fact to the Postmaster at Norfolk but
the error seems to be in taking for granted tho
steamboat company's acceptance of the offer.
similar communication, the 6 Herald' says,
was received by the Postmaster there from the
Department more than a week ago. apprising
him that a contract had been made for three
extra mails on James river; yet, strange to say,
the arrangement has not been commenced, nor
is It known that the agent in Richmond for
the company which is said to have taken the
contract has been apprised of the intentions Of
the Post Office Department.
We are gratifed to know that the department
has taken the subject into serious consideration,
and manifested its willingness to effect the
much-desired object The will existing, the
way will soon be developed, and the people Of
Norfolk and Portsmouth, and the surrounding
country, including many dependent post Offices,
will soon enjoy the possession Of facilities to
which they are richly entitled.

THE COMPROMISE RESOLUTIONS. There is
great force and truth in the following remarks
of the Baltimore Sun:
politicians are the bane of our system of
government; but they must be endured until
the operation Of that system, perfected by the
intelligence Of the people, expels them. No
sane man, acquainted with the history of this
country during the past two years, could pos
sibly have expected that the present session of
Congress would open with proposition to re-
enact laws which have been commonly received
and approved in all sections of the country.
Existing laws, under whose wholesome opera
tion the Union has proved it's strength and du-
rability, require no politico. Congressional en-
dorsement And the introduction Of such pro-
positions, merely with view TO Presidential
operations, exhibits a recklessness of character
which should forever exclude any man guilty of
it from the object of bis aspirations. What
sort of an excuse for bis conduct could he pos
sbly make to the people of this country should
such n proposition reopen the old theatre Of
strife, and again agitate the States upsn sub
ject which is amicably adjusted? And what,
We demand, is the amount of good that can
possibly flow from vote on the subject, even
were it unanimous? We all know very well
that some would vote only at the dictate of pol
icy, while others would disregard such vote at
the first convenient hour, or upon the earliest
indications Of political necessity. Congress
would do better to proceed at once to the de-
spatch of business, and leave the compromise
measures to the constituted authorities and the
people. If q resolution must pass, let it be
done at once or abandoned. There seems to be
a long debate anticipated on the subject; and
if this should occur, there will be an immense
accountability with those who provoke it,"
