ARNfNG THE NEGROES.

The Tribune, Judging FROM the following extract
from an editorial ia its issue of the 21h is dispos
ed to doubt the meaning OF the clanlor IN aud out
of Congress on the. question of armng our slaves.
That journal has had wary eye fixed upon the de-
bates ON this subject for long time, and its edlto-
rial scrutiny has been rewarded by the following
opinion, as re silt, which appears in the editorial
in question:
IL is idle 10 suppose the majority OF one in the
Rebel Senate will hold out against the almost uuanl-
mons opiuion OF the Rebel leaders, and Rebel Jour
raIS and Rebel peOplc--a lew llunkeriSh planters
,xcepted who, Ike cur Conservatives NJ the North,
never learn ANYTHING aud never forget anything
The only doubt in the case /, not whether the Reb-
Il, mean 10 raise a negro force, but whether they
have not already raised that force 1t is shrewdy Sug
,csed that this appearance of debate and delay has
no other purpose than to cover the proceeds of or
Lation now actually going on. The appointment
0f Lee a. General in Chief when he was known ~
an advocate OF armlng the negroes, showed that ne
Was 10 have his own way, and We hatSa rep'r
from source that ought to be well informed, tina
the Rebels have been for weeks, tsnOt months
busily engaged IN drilling an army OF negroes, and
that al this moment they are about ready 10 enter
the field Il is asserted that they are 10 bear The
brupt OF Sherman'S advance, and that without
ayacuutiug Richmond even Petersburg, the Con
l.deracy by the help oil this new Negro army, will
nrsy itself able to rISk battle Tor the possession
/ ~ North Carolina. We do not yOuch fOr the re-
mort There are many probabilities against it,
fh,. Richmond papers are too much III euuesi TO
"a. ,ouuterteitmg. Yhe reluctance 10 overturu the
Il - corner st0ne" OF the Coniederacy has been too
real n is but lately that the opposition seemed IN
the way OF being sih need But the report itself Is
another evidence that the fact IS about 10 be ac-

SENATOR CARLILr.
In the course of the Senate'S debate of Saturday
evening ON the Louisiana question
.sMr. Garlic, OF Va took the noor IN oppostioh
10 the resolution. In the course oil MS remarks,
Mr.. Garlic was asked u question IN regard TO the

he replied that u he had had the means OF supporting

ceVed senator, he could hdos rsS'ynY% no seq
on the very day That the state oil west NHsihia
was recognized by the Senate
We 80 seldom have the pleasure oil agreeing
with Senator Garlic that we must maxi the most
of any opportunity that presents tseI. we 40 most
emuhatically concur IN ms opinion that he should
have ceased To sit in the Senate on the day that te
STATE of N EST Virginia was adtIitIed into the Union.
He is moi a citizen of the State which lie seems to
represent He is not true representative oil Old
Virginia tloyal or disloyal, OF the loyal men of
West Virgins; and, IA the scarcely distinguish

the, arr. loo few in number to be- represented any
where but ia the rebel Congress and army We
protest against the further pay neut OF 5000 and
mileage per annum from the Federal Treasury To
support their agent in the Senate.
NJ. Garlic cuntesscS that he has 10 moral lieu
to a seat in the Senate, aud that he remains there
for nothing hut the money lac thus draws from the
Treasury.
Whatever baSeness there maybe IN his ttltnde Is
OF his, not oar, pr0camationD Aud We trust he

from his most diScrcdtabe position aud the Nation
