WILEY, CALLIE D. - We find in the Indianapolis Journal, of the 24th inst., of the following notice of the death of Mrs. Callie D. Wiley. She had many warm friends and admirers in this county--and this was the case wherever she was known. Our citizens will be pained to hear of the death of Mrs. Captain W. Y Wiley, formerly Mrs. C. A. Dyche, which sad event occurred early yesterday morning at the residence of her husband. Mrs. Wiley is remembered as a lady of more than ordinary amiability and attainments, and her decease will be sincerely lamented by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. Mrs. Dyche was one of our sweetest singers, and her frequent public appearances in former years, are treasured up as among the pleasantest recollections of what may be called the dawn of music in Indianapolis. A lady of fine address, pleasing manners, exquisite taste, and unvarying sweetness of character, society has sustained a loss not readily repaired or forgotten.
