take INC Ioiio~lnS excellent article
from the New York Express, an old lire
Wing paper, never identified with the De-
mocracy, but which incuIcates sound views
at this crisis. 1t says:
VIOLENCE NOT PATRIOTISM.
Many well meaning people, and some
not SO well-me7nin Just now, are disposed
to make their own ideas and conduct the
standard of other peoples duty. 1t is not
enough that they sincerely wish well for the
country and speak well for the country, and
what IS better, act we'll for it. They are re-
qrired TO be noisy, violent ard vehement;
otherwise they are judged hastily, and are
often charged with being in sympathy with
the common enemy, il not open or disguis-
Ell enemies. OF course, there is no Justice
in al this, and there is as little Of common
sense in such conduct as there is of Justice
and fair dealing. Another class of persons.
whose zeal outstrips their good sense, allow
no man to criticise the Administration with
oat meeting him with the false accusation
that he is uniaithful to the country.
"Aou are expected not only to approve
the official acts of the President, bat all the

dress, but all Of his subsequent messages TO
Congress, and not only these acts of the En-
ecutive, but each and ali of the separate
measures of the mem bers of his Cabinet
civil, military, financial, foreign, domestic
and all. According to our old fashioned
notion, one may be good citizen, a true
patriot, an honest man, and in all things ar
earnest and intelligent supporter Of the best
interests of the Government, without in
dorsirg all the folly, all the I'm stakes, and
all the frauds and all the violations of law
and constitutional rights which have been
only too common with those in power for
the last fifteen months. To support the
Government heartily, wholly, entirely, is
one thing; TO support the administration and

I'VE have some things TO comm end in the
Presid ent, and have never hesftated TO say
so cordially, promptly and sincerely, and
we have seen other things to condemn
such as the appointment Of Helper, and
others of that stride, his partial indorse-
ment of Cam eron's administration of the
War Department. &c., with all the pr oaGs
on record of the downright knavery prac-
ticed while he was Secretary of War. the
separation OF different divisions of the army.

vice, aud some other things which, how

"All such judgments founded upon as
honest convictions as those entertained bv
the President, Or by any of his friends may
not only be entertained, but expressed -
They come from as loyal, true hearted and
as devoted men to the country as any in the
pubiic sArviee pay, or out of it, giving
blind homage to men in power because they
are N power, without one reason for the
faith that is in them. We repeat tina
neither profession, nor violence. Or party
zeal, nor pharasaical pride, gives any evil
dence of an honest love of country, or 0
valuable service to its best interests; tn ct
conduct of the Administration is far from
being updeserving of censure.''
