The Great Carazry Erpedition.<
The Evansville, (Ind.) Journal of the
23d gives particulars of the move
ment of the cavalry expedition under
Gen. Wilson. 1t says:
From gentleman who arrived
yesterday morning from Eastport,
Miss, we learn that the great cavalry
expedition, Of which we have heard
so much mention for the past few
weeks, commenced their march for
the heart Of Dixie on Monday last
under command of General Wilson.
The command is very large one.
and is composed of the very flower Of
the army of the Cumberland, all arn,-
ed with the most destructive repeat
ing rifles, and supported by some of
the heaviest artillery in the service,
being all mounted and finely equip
ped, aud rely upon the country for
supplies. They will move with great
celebrity and with resistable force,
and we may expect to hear the most
gratifying results from the expedition
One division Of the army remains at
Simsport, sufficient to keep the coun-
try free from guerrilla raids or any
small force which may be providing
in North Alabama, Mississippi, OF
West tennessee. Indiana is largely
represented in the expedition, in.

LOYALTY The Republicans style
themselves. the " Union party. TINS
implies that there is a diSuulon party in
the country. There is no such party in
the North, aud we do not believe there is
any such party even in the South. But
the Republicans " think it very po.itIc
for their purpose to propngate3lhe rlra
that the Union is still in great dang r
IRON domestic enemies, and that there Is
no salvation for it save in their party,
which, they would persuade the people,
includes all the truly patriotic and Union
loving men in the whole United States. -
They employed like subterfuae during
TIE war in claiming to eIn6ody in them
selves all the loyalty Of the land. IL
man was not one of them, he was called
Copperhead," and that meant he was
a traitor. 1t was not Of the slightest i'm
portance whether the person SO stigma
Iized was = good and duliful citizen,
faithful in all respects to the laws or not
II WAS quite enough to mark and disti1-
Huish him IS disloyal man, that he did
not belong to the " Republican party.
The members Of that organization, how
ever, were entirely confident that they
were all right. though it is certain that
not one in every thousand Of them knew
what the words loyal and loyalty truly
imported.
AtaN events, the WiseSt and the stu
pidest of the party alike held loyalty to
consist in blind, unquestioning, uaqual'
a 4 Ia fhn (Snvarnnpnf
but the Administration, no matter what
it did or might do. This was tho Re
publican" tOuchstOne Of patriotism and
civic probity, and il was applied with
rigOr that disregarded old personal friend
ships, social amenities, and even family
relations, although but little less than
majority Of the whole voting population
in the so called non -rebelIous States were
prescribed as disloyal by the test. So
sweeping an impeachment Of everybody 5
LOYALTY save their own, has seldom match
ed that Of the Republicans. The nearest
approach to it occurs in Russian history.
Count Berg, the blood hound, who in 10,
3h,sdvised Emperor Nicholas to adopt the
most sanguinary measures, when alter
wards dispatched to Warsaw to command
that place and ferret out the econspratorS,
is said to have had . conversation with
the Grand Duke Constantine, in which
