REPLY TO THE OFFER OF FOREIGN LOAN.
The Secretary of the Treasury has prepar-
ell his reply to the offer OF loan to the
United States Government made by Ger
man banker, a short time since, through
the State Department, for thousand mill
ion dollars. He has fully examined the de-
tails of the proposal, and has come to the
conclusion that there is no authority OF law
which would authorize him 10 entertain the
proposition. He so informs the party ma
king the offer, stating in his reply that the
question is one solely for the consideration
of Congress, and until that body will pass
law sanctioning such loan, he must de-
cline accepting it. He, however, intimates
that the whole matter and the accompany
ing papers will be referred to that body up
on the opening Of the next session, with
recommendation that the subject be favOra
bly, considered

In fact, Gen. Butler, who is by no means so

them more uneasiness than anybody else
He is charged with ofhciousness in matters

The Louisville Democrat, speaking OF the
Amnesty Proclamation, says;
gs gsaConsistency is not one of the merits of
that patent loyalty which is so much in
,Spgue these times. .sts..
The President grants an amnesty on con.
dition of taking a prescribed oath. The
srnount of it is proposition to the rebels
TO restore them the right to vote, hold of
Gee, &C., in . State. provided they will
swear to support the Presidents measures,
and, virtually, the Presidents party.
Well, the telegraph fatters the hopes of
Union men with the information that mul
titIdes of rebels are eager to take the oath !;
that even the rebel armies are much affected
by it. This is one side Of thepicture. Theloy-
al men par excellence about here don't seem
to appreciate this matter Of oaths on the part
of rebels. They sneer at the Unionism of
those who have taken oatns and given bonds,
and treat them still as rebels, not entitled
to the protection of the laws. They levy
contributions on such men to compensate
the losses of Union men by rebel raids
Now, we should like to know from men
about here, having all the loyalty, in their
own estimation, what they mean by exact
ing these oaths2 When a man has done
all demanded of him, does the Government
owe him protection as citizen or not? If
not why is the oath exacted, especially If
the man is to be still treated with distrust
and suspicion, and liable to arbitrary and
lawless assessments How do they expect
man to feel any obligation of allegiance
to Government that oppresses and does
not protect him? Tell US, now, if an oath
Of allegiance is binding when the Govern
ment refuses to perform its duty; when it
becomes an oppressor instead of Protec.
tor. .s-.
Moreover, since these patent loyalists
deem it first duty to support the war
measures of the Administration, how do
they reconcile their professions and prac.
tice? The President makes the oath the
lest of loyalty They treat the oath of a
'sympathizer as of no account whateVer.-
They express a contempt for it in words or
action. But the panacea for all ills now
down South is this oath, The man who
takes it has high privileges. He is not only
free himself but is invested with the gov
srnment OF nine other white men. The
oath bound one tenth will be invested with
State power to the exclusion of all the
nine-tenths.
The patent loyalists, then, must abandon
their dlstrust oaths, and accept loyalty sup
ported by the oath as legal tender-the
best they can get and a'' they can get-and
repudiate these inconsls, encies OF protes
sions and practice. If oaths ar' worthless,
let's not have them If We must resort TO
them, they must be respected at least
