Tho arrogance they hayo acquired by ‘the use of the lash upon others, will be soon taken out of them when the some scourge shall bo applied to them- selves. A band of ten or twenty determined negroes, well armed, having their rendezvous in the forests, coming out upon the plantations by day or night, seizing individual slaveholders, stripping them, and flogging them soundly, in the presence of their own slaves, would soon abolish slavery over a large district. ‘These bands could also do a good work by kidnapping individual siaveholers, taking them into the forest, and holding them as hostages for the good behaviour of the whites remaining on the plantations; compelling them also to execute deeds of emancipation, and conveyances of their property to their slaves. These contracts could “probably never afterward be successfully disavowed on ground of duress (especially after new governments favorable to liberty should he established), inasmuch as such contracts would be ni more than justice; and men may Fehttally, be coerced to do justice. Such con- tracts would be intrinsically as valid as the treaties by which conquered nations make satisfaction for the injus- tice which caused the war. The more bold and resclute slaves should be oncou- raged to form themselves into bands, build forts in the foresta, and there collect arms, stores, horses, everything that will onabie them to sustain themselves, and carry on their warfare upon the slaycholdere, Another important meagure on the part of the slayes will be to disarm their masters, so far as that is practica- ble, ‘by seizing and seo. their weapons whenever opportunity offers.

SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD. Cusnuamown, Jefferson County, Va. Oct, 21, 1859. } The Cirevit Court of Jefferson county—Hon, Richard Parker, Circuit Judge—-which commenced ite session yes- terday, was occupied to-day with the trial of the case of State vs. Dillard, for an assault with intent to kill. The examination trial of the insurrectioniats, Browa and hie. oasociates, before eight Juetices of the Peace, will take place on Tuesday, in the court rooms, the Circuit, Court adjourning for that purpose. Judge Parker’s charge to the Grand Jury was an able and appropriate effort, re- ferring mainly to the late attempts to excite insurrection in their midst. He gaid:— GustLxMxn OF 1B JoRy¥—In tho state of excitement in- to which our whole community hss »:en thrown by the recent occurrences in this county, i feo) that the which T usually deliver to a Grand Jury wouid be entirely outof place. Those occurrences cannot but force them- selves upon your attention. They must necessarily occu- py a considerable portion of that time which you will de- vote to your public duties agaGrand Jury, However ilty the unfortunate men who are tow in the hands of vatico may prove to be, still they caanot called upon to answer to the offended laws of our Com- monwealth for any of the multifarious crimes with which they are charged, untila Grand Jury, after diligent in- quiry, shall decide that for these offences they be put upon their trial, I will not permit myself to give expression to any of those fvelii which at once spring up in bya A breast wi reflection the enormity of the guilt in which those are involved yy vio. invade by force a peacefu! unsuspecting portion of our common country, raise the standard of iusurrection amongst them and shoot down without mercy Virginia citizens, defending Virginia soi) ‘against their invasion. I must remember, gentlemen, that as a minis- ter of justice, bound to execute over Pa and laws faithfully, and in the very spirit Justice herself, I must, as to every one accused of crime. hold, as the law holds, that he is innocent until he shall be proved guilty by honest, independent and an impartial jury of bis countymen; and what is obligatory upon me is equally binding upon every one who may be connected with the prose- cution and triale of these offenders. In these cases, as in ajl othere, you will be controlled by that oath which each of you have taken, and in wi 1 hg have solemnly sworn that will diligently inquire into all offences which may be brought to our knowledge, and that you will present no one through ill- will, a8 well as that you will leave noone unindicted through fear or favor ; but in all your presentiments you shall present the truth, the whole truth, and no- thing but the truth. ‘Do but this, gentlomen, and you will have fulfilled your duty. Go beyond this, and in place of that diligent inquiry and calm inves- tigation which you have swern to ae act upon pre- Jjudice or from excitement of passion, and you will have done a wrong to that law in whose service you are en- gaged. As I before said, these men are now in the ands of justice. They are to have a fair and an impartial trial. We owe it to the cause of justice as well as to our own characters that such a trial should be afforded them. If Filly, they will be sure to pay the extreme penalty of their guilt, and the example of pun- iebment when thus inflicted by virtue of Jaw will be, beyond all comparison, more efficacious for our protection than any torture to which mere passion could subject them. Whether they be in public or private position, let each one of us re- bono et td fe teed pas of these alleged offenders, the law alone, through its recognized agents, must deal with them to tho last. It can tolerate no in: terference by others with duties it has assumed to iteelf. If truc to horself, and eho will be, our-common- wealth, through her courts of justice, will be as ready to munich the offence of such inteerference as she is to pun- sh these grave and serious offencers with which is Dow about to deal, in case these offences be proved by legal teetimony to have been perpetrated. Let us all geutlemen bear this in mind, and in patience await the result, confident that that result will be whatever strict and impartial justice thall determine to be necessary and proper, It would seem, gentlemen, and yet I from no evidence, but upon vague rumors which have reached me, that these men who have lately thrown themselves upon us, confidently expected to be joined by our slaves and free negroee, and unfurled the banner of insurrection and invited this class of our citizens to rally under it, and 3a, 0a 1 am told, they were unable to obtain a single recruit. Tho following is the commitment of the insurrectionists and the warrant to the sheriff to summon cight justices to examine the facts with which they stand charged:— State of Virginia, Jefferson county, to wit:—To the sheriff, Court, and to erceise of the jail of eaid county. These are to command you, in name of the Commonwealth of Virginia, forthwith to convey and deliver into the custody of the keeper of said jnil, and to receive and safely keep the bodies of John Brown, Aaron C. Stephens, Edwin Coppie, Shiel¢s Green and Jobn Copland, negro, and char - fore me, Roger Chew, a Justice of the Peace for the said county, on the oaths of Henry A. Wise, Andrew Hunter and John W. McGinnis, and upon the free admission and confession of said parties made in my presence and hear- ing, that they and each of them did feloniously conspire with each other and with other partics unknown, to make an abolition insurrection and open war against the com- moepwealth of Virginia, by making an armed attack unon and murdering her citizens at a certain place called Har- per’s Ferry, and then ané there to riot on the 17th, 18th and 19th days of October, 1859, and did feloni- ously and of their malice kill and murder, with firearms called Sharp’s rifles, and revolvers, pistols, divers citizens of this commonwealth, and Fountaine Beckham, George W. Turner and Thomas Boorley, free white persons, and Luke Quinn, a soldier of the United States government, and also Hay- wood Sheppard, a free negro, and did there and then, foloniously conepire with divers slaves, belonging to citizens of this commonwealth, in the county aforesaid, to me unknown, to rebel and make insurrection ist the government and laws of this commonwealth, that they may be examwed for the said offence before the proper examing court, and otherwise dealt with according to law. Given under my hand and 6eal this 20th day of October, 1859. Signed, ROGER CHEW. To the Sherij Jefferson county, Virginia:—Whereas John Brown, aA Fi rect and Edwin Coppie, white ersong, and Shields Green and John Copland, men of color, have been committed by my warrant within and for certain felonies charged to have been committed as there- in stated by them, and being of opinion that there is suffi- ciont cause for charging said parties with said offences, I command you, in the name of the commonwealkh, to summon at least eight of the justices of said county to meet at the Court House of said county, on the 25th day of this month, October, 1859, to hoid a Court for the ex- amination of the facts with which said parties stand charged, and for such other purposes concorning the premises as are required by law,and have then there this warrant and make return how you have effected tho same. Given under my hand and seal this 20th day of October, 1858 ROGER CHEW. ‘The Sheriff holds the came prisoners on a commitment irened on the complaint and information of Lewis W. Washington, Feq. ‘he indictment will contain counts charging the prisoners with inciting slaves to insurrection, murder and rebellion against the government. The final trial will take place at the present term, which will com- mence in a few dayr. The jail is well supplied with arms:among them are two boxes of Sharpe's rifles, taken by the Grays at Harper’s Ferry. No apprehension is felt here for the safety of the prisoners, either from Lynch Jaw by the citizens or res- cue by their friends, although there is a foolish rumor that ninety men are armed over in Maryland ready to re- leaee them from jail at the first opportunity, ‘Through the politeness of the Sheriff, the writer visited the prisoners in the jail. Old Rrown and Stophens wero lying on one bed in one room, and Coppie and the negro Shields wore lying in one bed tn another room, manacled together by the wrista. The negro Copland was eitting in a third room.

Stephens lay upon his right sido, groaning with pain. Brown exchanged civilities very courteously, and turning to the jaflor inquired how many of his party wore now in: prison, and their names? Ho stated that he camo here with ninctoen persons, including himself, five of whom ‘were colored. He did not know who were with Cook, or whether he was dead or alive. He wanted the reporters, when he answered their questions, to atate the facts that might tell in their favor as well as those against them, ptherwire he would not give an answer. ‘Have any of and exbibitto your neighbors this + you hero,” he inquired, “ever stated this fact, that wo had %0 iden or thought of killing or wounding or injuring any po who did not interfere with us?

Your own ¢itizens will testify that such were by orders; that is the fact and you know it.’” The writer, in response, remarked, mildly, “iknow you pay it.” Brown, with eyes flashing with excitement, oxclaimed, “You know the fact. The fact, at least, you may know if you exercie? your reason a8 in other things. The pri- soners, thirty or forty of whom were in my possession, ‘will tell you that when the first attack was made upon us Icompelled them to keep under shelter, and even made them lie down.”” © But Beckham wae unarmed, and doing nothing against ou.?? i Brown eaid:—Then I know nothing about that at all. 1 did not know he was killed. Iutterly deny any possible connection with the killing of any unarmed man. I did my utmoet to protect imnocent persons and iy “ne Brown proceeded to give some details of the ight. He was wounded half a dozen times, he eaid, after he had ceased firing. He knew not who wounded him, but said there was half a dogen hacking at once. He coukt bave killed the officer in command, buy he supposed he was only coming in to receive their gurrender, otherwise he wouli have shot him. There were but four in the engine house when the marines attacked it who were able to fight, Thero were himself, Edwin Coppie, J. C. Anderson and Adolphus ‘Thompson. His eon Oliver Brown and Stuart Taylor were in the house dead, and another son, Wilson Browa, was mortally wounded and dying—making in all seven of his party in the engine house. He did not believe the pecple would sacrifice eight of their own fellow citizens for the sake of killing his little party, and that was the reacop he did not surrender when summoned to do 60 be- foro the marines attacked. He told his prisoners repcat- edly that their fellow citizens were not going to butcher them in that way, and if they would keep out of the way of shot they would not be hurt. He repeatedly urged the reporters to state facta, being very much afraid of things being misreprecented, and getting considerably excited upon beng closely questioned on some doubtful points. He wanted only facts to go to the world. He stated fur- ther that he had the promise and the faith of the State of Virginia that he should have a fair trial and no mock trial; not that it would make any difference in the resuit, but that he might have justice as tothe faith of their motives. Brown evidently wishes to be consilered throughout the country asa hero and a martyr. Steyhens, the other prisoner hore, broke in very ear- nestly: “We want the facts to go properly before the world. I am willing to die, and expect to die. Iam wil- ling new, and have been for years, to die.

Our community were considerably excited to-day by the appearance at noon of one of the fugitives from Har- per’s Ferry, supposed tobe Cook. A gentleman from Quincey overtook.the man on the road leading from ‘Waynesborough to this place, .=4-cerrtea mim some dis- tance in his buggy. When about three miles from town the man got out of the vehicle, under pretence of taking another road. Aboutan hour afterwards the gentleman raw him upon one of our streets. He informed two others, who tracked him to a house at which Brown’s men have boarded. Leaving one man asa guard, the other went off for assistance, but before he returned the man escaped at the rear of the house, passing through agarden. At the foot ofthe gar- den a blanket, containing a Sharp’s rifle, unloaded, was found, and this rifle was known to have been in Cook’s possession. Immediate pursuit wes made by a number of metf, ‘bat no trave could be discevered. The blanket was marked “E. H.,” and, together with the rifie, is now in Sheriff Brown’s possession. The man has other ‘weapons. Cook’s wife and child are now, and have been for the past week, at the house through which the man passed, but she denies that he is her husband. The general impression, however, is that itwas him. He had ona black slouched hat, high crowned, a somewhat faded black frock coat, with outside pockets, light brown pants, very large, heavy boots, and a red and white stripod calico shirt. He is about five feet six or seven inches high, tallow complexion, light bair, cut straight across behind and light sandy beard and moustache. His gencral appear- ance was very rough and shabby. Parties are now in pursuit of him, and others will leave in the morning. It 4s supposed that other fugitives are in the neighborhood. Ffforts are now being made to ferret them out, and if caught there will be no favor or protection extended to them by any of our citizens. SPEECH OF GOV. WISE. Ricumoyp, Va., Oct. 21, 1859, Gov. Wise arrived to-day and was received by Com- pany F, which escorted him tothe Capitol. He addressed the throng from the steps of that building, stating that ho had taken the responsibility of placing a guard at Har- per’s Ferry, and that he would distribute arms at accessi- ble points throughout the State. The speech produced a great sensation. OLD BROWN’S ret OF HIMSELF AND Among the trophies of the government's military expe- dition against the twenty-two conquerors of the Old Domi- nion is the following document, apparently in the hand- writing of John Brown himeelf :— HISTORY OF JOHN BROWN, OTHERWISE “OLD BROWN,” mh ee Ain te tnt is © purports to be the history e ly as coemaceehn Kansas, and eays—In 1864 the four eldest cons of John Brown—viz., John, Jr., Jason, Owen and Frederick—all children by a first wife then living in Ohio, determined to remove to Kansas. John, Jr., sold his place, a very desirable little property at Vernon, Trumbull county, and Jason his place near Akron, in Summit county. ‘The other two sons held no landed pro- perty, but both were possessed of some valuable stock ‘as were also the twe first named), derived from that of cir father, whtch had been often noticed by liberal premiums, both in the State of New York and also of Ohio. Jason Brown had a very valuable collection of ‘ape vines and also of choice fruit trees, which fe took up and shipped in boxes at a heavy cort. The two firet named, John and Jason, had both families. Owen bad none. Frederick was engaged to be married, and was to return for his wife. In juence of an cx- treme dearth in 1854 the crops in Northern Ohio were almost an entire failure, and it was decided by tho four brothers that the two youngest should take the teams and entire stock, cattle and horses, and move them to South- western Illinois to winter, and have them on early in the epring of 1865. ‘This was doue at very considerable ox- ense, and with some loss of stock to John, Jr., some of is best stock having been stolen on the way. ‘The wintering of the animals was attended with great expense and with no little suffering to the two youngest brothere, one of whom (Owen) being to some extent a cripple from childhood by an injury of the right arm; and Frederick, though a very stout man, was subject to pe- riodical sickness for many years, attended with insanity. It has been publicly stated that he was idiotic—nothing could be more false. He had subjected himself to a moet dreadful surgical operation but a short time before starting for Kaneas, which had well nigh cost him his life, and was just but through with his confinement when he started on his journey, pale and weak, They were obliged to husk corn all winter out of doors in order to obtain fodder for their animale. vlomon Brown, a very étrong fminor son of the fami- iehteen years of age, was sent forward early in 1855 to aemiet the two last named, and eli three arrived in Kan- carly in (ue Spring.

Tho accident waa caused by the young man slipping whilst running after the ball, which rolled down a holiow of some fifteen or twenty feet, the bottom of which was covered with sharp, pro- land will not take part {n a Congress, unless assured beforehand that the rights of the Italian people are to be respected. It would no doubt be a grave complication of the present troublesome state of affairs were a Congress held at which France was represented and England not. It would scem to foreshadow the dissolution of an alliance that is of paramount influence and that really guarantees the prosperity of both nations. But a Congress must be held soon. And no doubt exists in our political circles that one will take place, whether England joins in its de- yiberations or not. It is evident, from the tone of the leading Loudon journals, that pique is at the bottom of this apparent hesitation on the part of the British Cabinet. A sorences exists from the fact that the Emperor Napo- leon undertook the Malian war without waiting for the decision of Englaad’s tortuous policy,and also that be signed the Villafranca treaty without informing the Eng- jecting stones.
