TRAITORS REwARDED.-James E.. Wharton,
former editor Of the Wheeling "Intelligencer,'
Republican,) has been appointed Consul to
the Feejee Islands, and Mr.. Alfred Caldwell,
the present editor of the "Tntelligencer," has
been appointed Consul to Honolulu.
These announcements appeared in this paper
some days since.
The individual first named, came to Wheel
ing when a young map, and introduced himself
as James E.. Wharton, by which name he be.
cam we'll known as editor of the "Intelligen-
GER" Under that name he did business for
more than twenty years on mis- own account,
and under that name he succeeded in getting
the position Of Postmaster at Wheeling under
the administration of Gen. Taylor. He had
been in Office, however, but a short time, when
the Wheeling postoffce was very mysterious
~ robbed Of some eight thousand dollars, and
almost on the very day Of the robbery, the
rather singular fact was brought 10 light that
the real name of the individual upon whom
the appointment Of Postmaster at Wheeling
had been conferred was not James E. War
ton but James E. Whitcom1e, q native of Con-
necticut. These tpo circumstances determined
President Taylor to appoint a new postmaster
at Wheeling. Since that time (lS50) Whar-
ton alias Whitcombe, has lived a somewhat
retired life in and about the abolition sink
hole Of Virginia. His appointment is one
eminently fit to be made by the Lincoln ad-
ministration.
The antecedents OF Alfred Caldwell are
known to the reader.
