Like Clement L. Vnllandlgham, Carmack was too positive and too lnten»e a nature to gain a great place at the bar, except before the Jury. Unlike the politician, the lawyer can not choose hi* cause, and Carmmck wns a man who could not arguo a brief In tho rectitude of. which ho had lit tle faith. He had the Intellect to com. mand the logic, and the mind to analyze a h*gal principle; but he did not have the temperament of a law yer as did Ben Hill, or Matt Carpen ter. or Allen G. Thurman, or John G. Carlisle. , Hence Itf wn* perfectly naturAI for Carmack to abandon the bar for tno forum. Ho became an editor, nnd no more gifted pen over rpjnforced that noble profession. Orir country hn* produced but two perfect newspaper men—Charle* A. Dana anil Joseph B. McCulloch—possibly Henry J. Ray mond might bo added to the list. These were as great as writers '«» they were as gatherers of news. Car mack was not a new* man; but a* a commentator on events nnd on men, as tlx* ndvocate of living principles, American Journalism ban rnrely known his equal, nnd never known his supe rior.

Lamar had a more riotous Imagina tion than Carmack; nnd I am persuad ed thnt had Carmack been aa much of a dreamer aa-Avos Lamar, and In dulged In more introspection ho would hav6 been a more extraordinary man than h e was; but Carmack was a man of action as well as u man of thought, and as a soldier he would have been as superb on the field as he was great ns a law-giver In the senate. He was a born lender, and Isham G. Har ris was the only man ho ever saw of whom he wa* content to be a follower. The time Lamnr spent in dreaming Carmack dovoted to work—reading or writing. In commlttcn Lamar "Vna of ten Inert; but Carmack waa a positive force there. In open senate, when both were aroused to notion, they were equals—Lamar the finer Imagination.
