There are some Southern politicians, COW

thought loyalty WAS tho ynonym Tor dishooor.
Of this class is theeditor Of the Augusta Con-
stitmionalia, who, in his paper Of the 2ad Of
April, thus writes:
Loyal indeed. IT'S An i'll phrase. To
what or to whom is it that you, or that /, or

Pesident? The true Republican owns no per

conclave, misnamed Congress? The creatures
who make it up are the servants, not the mas
tiers, of the people. 1t is to Chief Justice
Grovel and his learned associates? Why that
Bench is but the mere translator Of the peo-
pies will. And yet here is the whole triad Of
Government, and not startling hole for this
poor loyal in any one Of the three. sRebsr
is bad enough, but loyal surely worse. for
the one, at least, means fight, and the other
has only sneak for it's synonym. It's such b
miserable, pulling, weak-legged, crawling
thing, too, this loyal very we'll in the efEele

MORTALITY AMONG CoLoRED TRooPs.-A
feature of the Observation-Disclosures extracted
from the Pigeon-holes of the war office, is the
great mortality among the colored troops from
disease, while but 2, 997 died in action and of
wounds, 26,997 died of disease. A Wash
ington correspondent of the Chicago Tribune,
commenting on these tigurec. says:
Among the white troops the proportion Of
deaths in action and from wounds TO the
deaths from disease is about one or two !:
among the colored troops as one to eight.
About one hundred and eighty thousand col
ored men were enlisted in the army during
the war, of whom, accordingly, nearly one
out OF every seven died Of disease. The gen
eral proportion among white troops is one to
ffteen.'
