Titus Oates Darlington Still Piot-
Ting.


The Booby Brlgadier CARRINGToN is still
plotting. Public detestation, contempt, and
opprobrium has no more effect upon him
than water upon wild duck. Charged
with deserting his regiment in panic be-
cause small negro discharged fowling
piece in his presence; guilty of making
disgraceful and beastly exhibition of HIM
self in the presence of the troops assem-
bled under his command to pursue JOHN
MORGAN; placed under arrest by General
wilcox for drunkenness and filthy conduct;
convicted by the sworn testimony of his
own confederate and accomplice of organ
izing reasonable secret societies and entic-
inc men to commit overt treason for the
purpose of gaining notoriety by betraying
them-this CARRINGToN, carrying a load of
infamy which would crush TITUS OATES,
still pursues his despicable profession ofspy,
conspirator, and informer; and still dares to
come before a community of intelligent
men with new lies, impositions, and hum
bugs; and still has the use of the fanatical
organs of his party to publish his nefarious
schemes. 1t was naturally supposed that
after the damning disclosures about CAR
RINGToN, made last Wednesday by his
stool-pigeon STIDGER, convicting him Of
conspiracy and fraud, he would subside,
and no longer offend the nostrils of white
men with his nauseating plots; but in this
reasonable expectation the public is disap-
pointed. The following is special dis
patch from indianapolis, printed in the
Cincinnati Commercial of Saturday:
General Darlington, with zeal only
equalled by that displayed in the disclO-
slIres respecting the Sons of Liberty, has
possessed himself of the entire secrets, rit-
ual, emblems, and organization of an order
which was to be the successor to the order
of the Sons of Liberty. The new order is
entitled the Star Association. We are not
at liberty to give further particulars than
TO state that its leaders contemplated a rev.
olution III the event OF the election of Mr..
Lincoln, and that the arrangements neces-
sary for carrying out this diaDUlioal plot are
or were progressing most spiritedly."
1t is not worth while to direct the atten-
tion of our readers to the extreme absurdi-
ty of this and all the rest of this EARRING
TONS disclosures; neither would it be prof
table to denounce him and his abettors as
they deserve. A wretch like this TITUs
OATES is as impervious to denunciation and
public contempt as the vilest convict, and
as oblvious to all sense of honor or shame
as harlot totally depraved. This last
''plot" is as transparent humbug as any
TITUS OATES ever invented. All the testi-
mony CARRINGToN has he doubtless invent
ed himself; he had the rituals printed; the
society organized, and the machinery put
in notion. We believe that DoDD was at
once the dupe and victim of CARRINGToN;
and that in this new discovery there are no
other men engaged save CARRINGToN and
the crew of spies, perjurers and scoun-
drels by whom he is surrounded and among
whom the profits of these infamous plots
are shared. None but the veriest fools and
the craziest fanatics will be gulled by the
transparent eircrioneering tricks of thrice
exposed and doubly condemned scoundrel
and humbug like this jealous BOBBY Brig
adler.
