talIti Is piliable t. see the fail Of one who
might have been great msn. We know
- Of no instance in which this is more fully
Illustrated than that Of John S. Carlile,
=. 9f Western Virginia. The first to move
in the matter Of q new State Convention
tFOyears ago the foremost in that Con-
- vention, and the most eloquent Of aIl the
Z men there gathered in his advocacy Of q
new State which should be an honor to
itself and the nation, he was universally
looked upon as The Coming Man Of West
ern Virginia. He was prominent as can
didate for the Governorsbip, and would
have received that Office had he not been
given the still more honorable one Of
United States Senaiorship. Here, even
more than if he had taken the former DO.
siiion, he had the opportunity to distin-
= guish himself as the champion Of the up
g rising prosperity and glory Of his consdt-
ueney. His colleague, Mr.. Wiley, was re-
b. gsrded as a sound, practical man, with no
especial talents for Senatorial honors.-
Butthe course Of public life has completely
reversed their positions, and Mr.. Wiley
has won for himself high place in ma
ionsl regard, while Carlile has sunk to
degrading depth. He opposed the new
State, favored slavery in it if it must be
had, and totally disregarded the interests
and sentiments of his constituents. For
this, he has been most signally rebuked by.
the people Of Western Vire mia. They
have repudiated his course in public and
in private, and his organ at Wheeling
= the Press-has died an ignoble death. But
0arlile has another paper-the Clarks-
burg Patriot, and through this he speaks.
OF the character Of these utterances, It's
sufficient to say that in late number af-
.a ter ezaggerating the losses and hardships
Of the North in the war, he charges that
the national debt now amounts to aHree
billions" The estimates Of Secretary
Chase place the debt, if the war continues
eighteen months longer, at but 81, ,7OO-
100000 at the end Of tE4t tine, or one bill
lion, three hundred millions less tsa than
Carlile says>it nor amounts to. Well
may the Wheeling Intelligencer say:
We hold him up to our people as being
the man Judging only his own words and
aets) We have 50 many months proclaimed
him to be, viz "a traitor, not only to his
own constituents and his own record, but
traitor TO the nation and to his Senate
rial oath"

INDIAN officers GOING TO WASHINGTON
Lieutenant Colonel Lewis Downing, of the
Sd Cherokee Indian regiment, and Captain
james Mcdaniel, of the I'd Indian regiment,
parsed through this morning en- route for
Washington. They left their regiments at
Bentonville, Arkansas. They arc Indians
Of the Cherokee nation. The Cherokees are
staunch Unionists. They have put three reg
iments of mounted infantry in the field
About a couple of months ago the Cherokee
nation held a convention, at which it was re-
solved to abolish slavery in their territory
unconditionnuy, on the 25th of June next.
This act viii give freedom to between five
and six thousand slaves.
The object of the above officers in going to
Washington is to secure greater protection
to their territory from the rebels, in order
that agriculture may be carried on. Both OF
them are fine specimens of indians. They
are intelligent and speak English huently.-
They proceeded on their way this morning
by the Lake Shore Railroad.

The Liberia Herald gives the following
item, which reflects great credit upon The
citizens Of the young republics
"Of all the adults in Liberia there can
not be found, out Of every ten, three that
cannot read aud out Of every fifteen, five
that cannot read and write to some extent.
With the youth the proportion is still
greater. Out ofeyery ten, you can find no
two, Of the smallest size, who cannot read
and write
H With what anxiety do they await the
arrival Of the regular mails. Let the mail
boat be day or two behind the tine, and
then there is a general talking, a wishing
from every source for her arrival. And
when the mails arrive there is a general
rush for letters, fer papers, for the news
These being delivered, you may see par
ties going in different directions, each
with one or more packages Of papers
Then comes the reading. For day and a
half, and often longer, everybody is read.

continues until the next mail. It has moi

A few days since the rebel journals re-
ported the capture, near Newbern, Of one
or more "Bufaloes, term which puzzled

Democratic Voice from the Army.


We have repeatedly stated, and the fact is
well understood by all, that when We speak,
at the present time, of the Democratic
party" we mean that portion Of it which is
rallying under the Democratic banner Of
opposition to the Government There are
thousands of loyal, patriotic Democrats
who have cast aside party allegiance before
the superior claims of the country. To
these men belong honor and admiration
But TO the Democratic party, as a party,
belongs shame, for its ignOble self-imposed
work Of thwartiug instead Of maintaining
the Government and its officers.
Those faithful Democrats who are in the
army are among the soundest and most
unconditional Union men, and when they
speak, it is in tones the very opposite Of
those which come from the copperheads
at home One Of the most striking Of
these instances is that of the 10th Penn
sylvania regiment, in camp at Beaufort
The resolutions declare that the enemy TO
the prosecution Of the war at home is not
less calculated to weaken the energies Of
the Republic than the rebels in the field F;
that the Northern cry Of apeace
and compromise" strengthens the
rebels; that the Proclamation Of Emahci-
patton and the Conscription law are well
calculated TO strengthen and inyigorate
the national cause; that the peace resolu-
tiOns Of the New Jersey Legislature are
eORardly and degrading; and that they,
drafted men, acknowledge the right snd
necessity of the Government to draft her
citizens in the present struggle The
Colonel commanding the regiment, in a
card attached to the resolutions, states that
his command is decidedly Democratic, there
being but seven Republicans out Of the
thirty-six officers whose names are attached
to them, and the proportion Of Democrats
being even greater in the rank and file.
These men went into the war with Dem
oCratic sentiments, and if they have
changed them, it is the inevitable eQnclu-
sion OF wars experiences.

THE OLD GAME.-A man hailiDg from

died out of $40 last evening on board the
Cincinnati train at Crestline. A stranger
accOsted him, and told him pitiful tale of
losing his money and having two sisters on
board whose fare he wished to pay to Cleve-
land. He would leave his gold watch as Sc
curity for the money until they should reach
Cleveland, where, he avered, he had a
wealthy uncle Of whom be could obtain the
money and redeem the watch. OF course the
gentleman from franklin Mills saw no more
of the distressed stranger. An examination
of the watch developed the fact that it was
of brass, and totally destitute of bowels.
