I While we have elsewhere commended
much that DR.. Logan said yesterday in his
speech upon the substitute be offered for
the senate-CarltleTesolatiOni We feelscon-
strained to say that De cannot commend
the resolution itself I'VE have NO reason
to doubt that o. was offered iusgood faith
as something which ii was thought would

to US to be a great letting dow from the,
attitude assumed by the Senate 10 its .reso-
luton. The Senate resolution covered the
whole ground. 1t stated all the facts. Il
said Mr. Garlic had disobeyed the instr1e-,
lions Of the Lsgislature,-both in regard to
the new State and support of the General
Governmenti that he had withheld from
that Governmental cordial support which.

give III and misrepresented the people he
was sent to represent. For these sufficient
d-Psipabls reasons they asked him to re-
sign What does Mr.. B9eaa's substitute
\ say Auy,of this2 The whole indictment
Is left out. 1t requests him to resign the
same as the other, hut what reason does IL
assigu3 None sare that Garlile "has lost
the confidence of the people of Western
Virginia" or Virginia as afterwards
a,nended. We would suggest another
amendment and make it eloyal people of
Virginia. for we are not sure that he has
los t the confidence of the disloyal part of
the State. ed 80 a. ;hia iH
Now things should not be done without
a reason, and the reason should be kpowpi
when the thing lis done. We submit
whether merely having lost the confidence
of the people would be an entirely suffcieut
reason on which TO base a demand for the
resignation of an Official II is not impossi-
bic to conceive of combination. of eircdm-
stances by which United States Senator
might fall into disferate, and yet be faithful
really TO his trust. This is not case of
that kind, but the substitute don't show
that. We think the original resolution
does. & Moreover the substitute SO far from
stating that Mr. Carliie has betrayed the
ttruets of the Legislature, does not even say
he has lost its confidence. He has simply
lost the copfasocerofzth the people. by the
: silence of the Legislature, its omission to
, condemn him. he is to suppose of course
that he still has its confidence, and would
he then belikeIy to comply with its request
for his resignation when theienIy assigned

of the psuplr2Y EeInig hrthintC d FsreDtly.
r 1t Is not even said that he HIS betrayed or
!. misrepresented, or now misrepresents this
i same people. He'has done nothing wrong
e for every manis presumed innocent until
a accusation, made: The mere loss of con-
4 6dence might be brought about by the
g maebinations OF designing enemies, We
