‘THE EVENING STAR. THE O, A. K.‘S IN INDIANA, Papers Discovered mm the Office of Con- ressmen Veerbees—Sharp Letter from Seneral Carrington. An Indianapolis letter in the Cincinnati Ga- zetie says: Some time since copies of the ritual of the O, A. K. were found in the office of D. W. Voor. hees, at Terre Haute, which naturally led to the inference that they were the property of D. W. Voorhees. He has made a denial to Colonel R. W. Thompson and to General Darnton whieh occasioned the following reply: LETTER FROM GENERAL H. B. CARRINGTON TO fi D. ¥ [oqunase. INDIANATOLIS, Ind., Aug. 16, 1861.—Hon. D. W. Veorhees, Member United States Congress, Terra Haate, Ind.:—I have received trom you a copy of yeur letter to Col. R. W. Thompaon, Provost Marshal, and hisreply. The following jaconic note accompanies them: “General Carrington:—As you published this faleehood in the newspapers, I shall ex- pect you to correct itas Colonel Thompson has cone. D. W. VooRHEES. The asenmption in the above is groundless. Your name is not mentioned by mein my Tre- ports, neither have I published anything about yon, whatever. You insist upon my answering your note to Colonel Thompson. The points you make are: ist. « That the office in which it is said these papers were found had not been occupied by you or any one connected with you, or been in #ny way under your control since last Novem- en’? 2 Hs 2d. You “desire to ascertain whether the circumstances connected with the discovery of those papers in that office led to the supposi- tion that you placed them there, or was even aware of their existence.” You desire this ‘*that the people may know the truth,’ and ‘not that you attach any par- ticular importance to the documents.” The papers referred to are one hundred and twelve copies of the Ritual of the O.A.K,a ireasopable order, aiming tooverturn the Goy- ernment of the United States, of which youare & member. The gentleman who found «these papers” told me they were found in your office. The following are “ some of the circumstan- ces” that led me to suppose they were correct in_the supposition : Your Jaw library and office forniture were in_the office where “ these papers” were found. You had declined renomination for Congress, and the office was reported as not for rent as late as April, 1564. ‘The ritual had been issued in the autumn of 1863. Your Congressional documents were in the office where “these papers” were found. Your speeches, up to March, of your entire Congressional career, with the «John Brown” Speech, were in the office where “these papers” were found. The correspondence of Senator Wall, of New Jersey, under his frank, indorsing a proposition to furnish you with twenty thousand stand of Garibaldi rifles, just imported, “for which he could vouch,” was in the office where “these bac ye were found. he correspondence ef O. L. Vallandigham, from Windsor, C.W., assuring you “our people will fight,” and that «he is ready,” and fixing a@ point on “the Lima road” at “which to meet you,” was in the office where ‘these papers” ‘were found. The correspondence of Joseph Ristine, Audi- tor of State, declaring that he “would like to see all Democrats unite in a bold and open resistance to ail attempts to keeps ours a united people by force of steel,” and that “this was a ‘War against the Democracy, and our only hope ‘was the successful resistance of the South,” ye = the office where ‘these papers” were found. The correspondence of E. U. Hibben, who Sssures you that “the Democracy are fast stiff- ening up when this war is to be openly de- clared as being waged for the purpose of free- ing the negro,” “which will arouse another section of the country to arms,” and declaring «that Lincoln bayonets are shouldered for cold-blooded murder,” wAs in the office where “these papers” were found. The correspondence of J. Hardesty, who «wants you to have that bundred thousand men ready, as we do not know how soon we may need them,” was inthe office where this ritual ‘was found. The correepondence of J. J. Bingham, who asks you “if you think the South hasresources enough to keep the Union forces at bay,” and says that “you must have sources of infor- mation which he has not,” was in the office where “these papers” were found. mn correspondence of John G. Davis, in- forming you tat a certain New York journal “is wonderfully exercised about secret and antl-war movements, and trerable in their boots in view of the terrible reaction which is sure tw await them,” was in the office where «these Tapers were found he correspondence of W. S. Walker, who ‘keeps out of the way because they are try- deg to arrest him for officiating in secre societies,” inclosing the oath of the K. G. C.’s, prior to that of the O. A. K., was in the Office where “these papers” were found. The petition of C. L. Vallandigham, D. W. ‘Voorhees and Benjamin Wood, in fayor of two republics and a united South, was in the office where “these papers” were found. The correspondence of Campbell, who says the “Democracy were once not afraid to jet their purposes out to daylight;” but that “now it Is deemed bert to work in secret, and asking Your consent,” was in the office where “these mpeet were found. ‘he correspondence of E. Etheridge, Clerk of the Honse of Representatives, giving official notice that “your credentials as member of the Thirty-eighth Congress have been received and filed in the proper office,” and for you “tocome on,” was in the office where ‘these papers” ‘were found. The correspondence of George H. Pendleton, which states that Etheridge’s plan to organize Congress, viz: ‘To elect himseit Clerk and Cox as Speaker,” jough he (Pendleton) will not facilitate the renomination of any man as Clerk ‘whose programme is for his defeat as Speak- er,” “suggesting to you to have it whis in the ear of E ridge, to reciprocate favors and opposition,” and do this authoritatively, but not as from him, &c., was in the office where “these papers” were found. The correspondence of J. McDonald, who had an interview with Perkins, ‘in one of his (Perkins’) lucid intervals,” with regard to “the discovery of the Northwest passage” by Perkins, tor which he claimed the credit, &c., — a the office where “these papers” were found. And soof B. W. Hanna, who wants a good Place in the ae ar army; and soof Hanne- gan, andsoof W. J. Pierce, who “will show tne a srr cr pre out to be ™monsters in ;” and soof Bigger and Dev- in and Dodd, &c., whose said correspondence — bg the office where “these papers” were found. These are some of ‘the circumstances” that Jed me to believe that ‘these papers,” the Rit- ual of the O. A. K., were found in your office. iI looked upon these circumstances asa plain juror might be supposed todo, and not asa statesman, and innocently supposed that such per &s there, if spared from the fire, would the possession of the owner, and that the office of the owner would be the place where these TS would be found. Ana yet, with Col. Thompson, I cheerfally &ccept your deniaj, and 80 respond, as you re- guest, “that the people may know the truth.” Your well-wisher, Huwry B. CaARRINGTON. &7 The Richmond Dispatch hasa new dress of type imported from ‘neutral’ England. In seneaneg Se fact it pays the following com- pliment to Northern enterprise and ingenuity : « We believe they are the first boom eyo ty! brought to this sie oom London since bs, when the late Mr. Ritchie, of the Enguirer, im- sported a font for his paper. Since then up to the war the Yankees supplied the South with types. We are grati at being able to lead off ‘with the English manufacturenow, and will be yet more pleased, the war, to dress our ‘aper in types made here in Richmond. In- deed, afoundry wasin existence here when ‘war began, and our paper was printed then on Richmond-made type; but the founder was 2& Yankee, and went off through the linesunder the promise to return and bring some articles mueh needed by publishers and the govyern- ment, but he never came back.” RaiLEZoAD NoktH To Ricumonp —From the diary of a captured officer, it is ascertaiued that 2 rebels have Fepsired. the railroad between ichmond and Cu pepper, &nd thattrains haye been running regularly for more than & month past.
