.LOyaI Talk,


One Of our exchanges, in ar article On

or sarcastically; who shall say which p
Having become entirely convinced that :.
1.-THE administration is the goverument,"
We propose to express some truly loyal
views, in truly loyal words.
We hold that Abraham Lincoln Is the
greatest statesman Of the age; that be il :
thoroughly Informed on all matters of gov
erDmsnt policy, and especially converssnt
with the intricacies Of tie tariff; that be is

the training requisite for q successor Of
Washington and Madison to the executive
chair.
We hold. alsn, that the af reDenti0nedl
Lincoln is ''honest," and that his admins
trauon is distinguished for the integrity uf

We'll never gave fat cunt acts to MIrean;
that Cameron never dabbled in Fl uds; that.
Tucker never made money out Of tran
sports; that FrGm ct never specuIated in

We hUl1. m recover. that the conduct IF
the war has been marked by brilliant
series Of the most wonderful victories, ex-
cept instances of disaster, caused by such
cOpperheads as McCh II IN ana Buell..
We still believe that this wicked rel 81
lion will be tqueiched in the original mir

Its leaders are all honest pstriots, caring
nothing for Office. except when il is forced
