Her Captain, officers and crew have every time

again soon. She has lost twenty-one in killed

Lova,ty and Di,loyaI,y,

These terms, naturally foreign to our language
as well as to the spirit of our Institutions. have
become engrafted upon our common dialect by
the constant repetition of them by the miserable
Abolition press-a press alternately fawniug and
bigoted.
Since we are compelled to use this jargon Dor
rowed from courts, by these malignant ioadies
upon power, let us consider what meaning has
been attached to it by the Republican Jacobins.
Ii is a matter of some curiosity, if not of import
ance. to know what now a days constitutes 10y
atty and what demonstrates disloyalty. After
tolerably minute inquiry and observation, we are
happy to be able to crafty our readers, and we
herewith furnish a table of signs and symptoms by
which they can always tell a number one loyal
man, as well as a disloyal wretch.

Gen. Howard stated in a public meeting

appointments. they have not always worked
advantageously. The most of these ChapIains
remain in the Uieinity of their regiments. aud
some of them come home and stay for weeks
together. while the boys" are uncared for and

THE PRESIDENTS RECONSTRUCTION"
PLAN. A portion Of the oath contained
in the proclamation annexed to the Presi-
dents message was omitted by accident
in Yesterdays HERALD, and we therefore
reprint it entire below. The Presidents
plan is, in brief, to restrict the right of
suffrage in the insurrectionary states to
those who will take this oath, which in
cludes support of the acts passed and
proclamations made during the existing
rebellion with reference to slavery, SO tar
as upheld as constitutional by the SUI
prene Court. His reasons for this are
fully and convincingly stated in the mes
sage. Whenever one-tenth of the people
of rebellious state comply with the oon-
ditions of the present proclamation and
take this oath, they will be recognized as
constituting the reconstructed state. We
shall probably take occasion to refer to
| this subject again. The oath prescribed
/ Is A. follows; aaaa
II do soieinnly swear, in the presence
of Almighty God, that will henceforth
faithfully support, protect and defend the
constitution Of the United States, and the
union of the states Hereunder; and that
I will, in like manner, abide by and fail b.
fully support all the acts Of Congress
| passed during the existing rebellion with
reference to slaves, SO long and SO far q
they are not repealed, modified or held
void by Congress, or by decision Of The
Supreme Court; and that | will, in like
| manner, abide by and faithfully support
all the proclamations Of the Presf len'
made during the existing rebellion having
reference to slaves, SO long and so far a
they are not modified or declared void BY
the decision Of the Supreme Court. s.
