Mr. Pumuprs—I do not couple Jobn Brown and Joseph Warren—not a bit of it. Joseph Warren sits to-day ia ‘that heaven where both live, and is not tall enough to wouch the hem of the garment of John Brown, of Harper's Ferry. (Applause aud hisses.) Joseph Warren was an honest man; Joseph Warren was a patriot; he wag a brave foul; he was an honest citizen; but John Brown was more than that. (A voire—* You ain't.) It isno matter what Tam; not the least bit; I am utterly indiffrent to. what ‘ou Way say—I say Joseph Warren died for bimselfy e died’ for the whites; he died in arms for bis owa ‘country and his own Jaw.

Well, now, jet me tarn that argument a bit. Are these gentlemen here from dis- interested benevolence? (No, no,” responded the revolu- onists.)

(Hisses and eheers.) At John Brown’s cotiage I saw an old tombstone of his grandfather who fell in the Revolution eighty years ago. ‘The old roan bad brought it up to his own bome irom Connecticut. He had ordered his own itaph to be engraved below his grandfather's, I ought as I looked at it—there is the former generation; & gave ite swords tothe despots to hold the blacks in }; this man bas gone up to God with his hauds full of muskets in behalf of the slaves whom his fathers torgot; and I believe that when he ascended to Heaven, ia the eye of God that sees the oak in the acorn, in the eye of Ristory that is looking back upon this moment, he ascend- ed with three bundred thousand fetters of Virginia’s Slaves in his right had. Mr. Phillips retired amid a storm of hisses, shouts and In the frequent interruptions with which Mr. ips had to contend, he behaved with the greatest equanimity, responding to questions from the crowd, and Jaunching forth several sallies of biting sareasm against hie opponents, who were to be found in all parts of the reom. The band end the greater part of the audience gave Jehn Brown’s favorite hymn, which was sronamtin io: terrupted by the yelis of hundreds of persons at the other extremity of the room. The band and choristers, however, very perseveringly stuck to their work, and deapite the very unfavorable and discouraging circumstances under ‘whieh they suffered, succeeded in doiing out the strain, the words of which are as follows:— Blow ye the trumpet, blow! ‘The gladly soiemn sound; Tet al} the nations know, To earth's remotest bound, The year of Jubilee is come; Return, ye ransomed sinners, home!

SPEECH OF PROFESSOR MATTISON. Prof. H.

But I told you Ido not justify the whole of John Brown’s course, (1 do.’”) 1 do not justify his going into Virginia with sevonteon men, 1 think, really, he ought to have had at least fifty, ad then Ithink he would haye comguered the, Ola Do: minion so that it would have staid conquered. * Another point.

In the wars between the Romans and Carthagenians, I lieve the Carthagenians made use of this artifice: Know- ng the fears of the Romavs inspired by rows of elephants boldly marching into the field of battle, the Carthagevians employed them rather than expose so many of themselves to the front, so if John Brown should have employed at least a dozen cows, and the thing would have been settled for ever. } Mr. Marneoy concluded by reciting some verses which had been sung in Jamaica after the emancipation of the staves in 1832, Mr. Cnariss H. Farrnayks made a brief speech, re- pretiiog that the opposition was led, not alone by rowdies ‘om the rum holes of the city—-(great hissing)—but by anumber of le men largely interested in the Press, whose names he could mention, but he forebore do- Dg £0. SPEECH OF REV. J. R- SLOAN. The Rev. J. R. Stoan was the next speaker. He said that he had been called upon at very short notice to speak before the meeting, for it was only on his arrival here yesterday that he beard that his name had been an- Dounced as one of the speakers. (Cries of ‘Oh, ob.’’) But when he heard that his name was on the list he did not feel at aoe A refuse the call, and he was there that night to throw his mite on the cairn that covers the grave of John Brown. (Cheers and hisses.) Hé happened to be buta humble minister of a small denomination that had its birth in the throes of a mighty armed struggle with civil power—a denomination of men, who, trusting in God, strong in faith, and grand in their study aud belief of God's holy Word ag well as in their intrepidity and daring, were marvelously like John Brown. He had read in ancient history how Amilcar took Hannibal, when a mere child of nine. yeas old, and made him swear upon the altars his country eternal hostility to Rome; his honored father and mother, at the fount baptism, had given him the name of a man who, two cemynriney ‘ago was one of the last English mar- tyre who pe in England. The scenes enacted in one days led to the English revolution, of which the American revolution was another fruit. He would there- fore be recreant to his antecedents if he did not appear when he was called upon to sympathize with a man who had pertahed as righteously if not as wisely as these. Gentlemen had aid there that night that they had no idea of justifying the acts of John Brown. Why there was no name in ir gad of history: towhich he would give his unqualified approbation—no, not among all the reformers of the world, even those who were the friends of truth aud righteousness. He would ‘not even compare the crucifixion of Jesus Christ with the death of John Brown, for he had a greater idea of the lat- ter than of apy event that bas ever occurred on theearth. Great hissing, and cries of Blasphemy. 2 Lather, ‘nox, Cranmer, Latimer, Ridley, Calvin committed great errors in thelr time, but men have taken them to their hearts, as future ages will take Jobn Brown. (Cheers and hissing.) He protested against men who in their heart of nearts honor Joho Brown, using any of the epithets of his enemies in speak- ing of his memory. There were always enough of hye- nas and jackals, croaking ravena and filthy birds of prey, ready to croak around the grave of every oot ‘and great man who died in sup) of principle. He would leave such a task to those w! natural instincts led them only in the direction of defaming the memory of John Brown. The reverend gentlemen then proceeded to give his reasons for ardently loving and revering the name of Jobn Brown. First of all, he ad- mired bim for his pluck. And here the orator defined the courage and unflinching constancy of the deceased. He then spoke of the idea of South Carolina in regard to Pluck, giving as an instance how she honored and féted Mr. Brooks; and now, in order to show that ber race of noble blood is not yet extinct, she fathered all her noble courage, and presented a cotton rope to Virginia to hang John Brown. But South Carolina was mistaken, for the rope was not strong en has not cotton enough enough in tory to make a rope strong enough to hang the principle for which John Brown sacrificed his life. (Great hissing.) He next dilated on John’s Brown’s re- hgious feeling and faith, his firmness in the hour of diffi. culty and trial, and said that the result of hie efforts was & complete success. (Cries of Yes” and “‘No.”) When- ever @ martyr died for a canse, the best results have fol- lowed. When Stephen was stoned to death, and went to aed the martyrs, who, under the altar, cry “O Lord, how 7? he remained a living Stephen in the heart of pee: Bs ov Tt was 80 everywhere. People may say that the success of the great anti-slavery party is cir- cumscribed, but if they fased the facts they would see that there are now 110 men standing in solid pualanx in the Lej ‘voting for Speaker where a few years ago there would not and could not have been ten in a similar crowd. (Tremendous applause.) He then made several strong comparisons regarding ‘the Harper Ferry out- break. The acts of John Brown were like the that play about the cloudy battle- the storm, revealing its form and outline; aud the death of John Browa has been thecan- centrated thunderbolt that has made pathway for its progress. They were like the great subterranean power that is raising, inch by incl, the land of Scandinavia; or like the great earthquakes of South America, which lift the giant Andes on their backs. He closed by gaying that if he were not there to give his testimony against slavery, every old martyred Covenanter would turn in their graves, and svery stoue that covers their dust would cry out to reproach him. (Applause and hisrer, ) Among the events of the evening was the arrest of Mr. Lareque, a Wall street lawyer, who was fincontinently marched off to the Eighth ward station house, and there locked up. Alderman Brady was appeaied to, to prevent a Laroque being sent to prison, but he refused to inter- ere. ‘The following extracts from the sayings of John Brown were freely circulated among the congregation, with the advertisement that the precious document couit be had at the moderate rate of ten cents per hundred, “ the net — from alj sales to be given tothe Jobn Brown Fund” -— It ig nothing to dle in a good cause. but an eternal dierrace to sit still in the presence of the barbariies of american h, and she i her terri ry Providence has made me an actor, and slavery an onteast.

Soon after Dr. Cheover began to , he alluded to the propriety of overthrowing corrupt governments, when the audience broke out into. loud: bursts of applanse, fol- Jowed by loud -hissing and coufusion. The applause was then redoubled, while the hissing became more powerful than ever. The excitement and enthusiasm of either side then became general. an‘ for some time the speaker had‘ to hold his peace. Several disturbances soon took place, and nearly the whole audience had more than once to rise to their feet, amid tremendous hissing, gibing, applause, and loud cries of “Put him out,” “put him out!” ‘These cries were very speedily’ put into form by the summary hustling out of several of the disturbers of the meeting. But no sooner was one disturber removed, than five of six sprung up im their places like the sernent’s teeth of ancient mythology. Never did the Metropolitan Police have 30 much active business Pay ee nerve and muscle as they had last night. Superintendent Pilsbury was on the alert in all parts of the room, but despite of his ut- most efforts to preserve order, it was utterly impossibie to conduct the meeting with peace and decorum, The noise and contusion at length grew so uproarious that Dr. Cheever’s voice could searcely be heard, At last a meeting was got up at the other end of the hall, and extemporary speeches were delivered, amid the most boisterous and continued applause. Chief Canranrer on this occasion came forward and ad- dressed the audience in these terms:—If the lailies and genticmen who have come here to hear this lecture wiil but keep their seats, whatever else may take place we have n euflicient force to preserve order. (Applange, and cries of “Good,” “Good.”) We cannot do that if upon every little occasion of noise you rise in your seats. We want to see who makes the disturbance. ‘After the performance of a dirge by the Band, the andi- ence quietly separated—the opposition keeping up their biewng and hooting to the last. The meeting, which was one of the most boisterous, unruly, and disorderly meet ings ever held in the Cooper Institute, was then brought to a close. Anti-Slavery Meeting in Philadelphia.

An antt-slavery fair is being hield at Concert Hall, and an anti-slavery meet- ing at the Assembly Buildings, During the session of the latter this morning a request was received from the Mayor to remove a flag before Concert Ball, on account of its great iength obstructing the passage of the street.

THE EXECUTION AT CHARLESTOWN T0-DAY. Copeland and Green to be Hang in the Forenoon and Cook and Coppie in the Afteruoon. Failure of the Memorial to Spare Coppie. THE EXECUTION TO BE PUBLIC, ker, Ree ke. ‘To-day the four condemned comrades of Join Brown in he Harper’s Ferry treagon are to expiate their crimes on the scaffold at Charlestown, Virginia. The military pre. Pparations for the execution are not quite as extensive as those which preceded that of Old Brown, but sufficient precaution appears to have been taken to prevent any dis- turbance. The two negro prisoners, Copeland and Green, are to be banged at eleven o’clock, and the two white mén, Cook and Coppie, at threo o’clock in the afternoon. ‘The trial of these prisoners was concluded on the 10th of November, when sentence of death was passed upon them—to be carried out on the 16th of December, this day. Coppice, Copeland and Green were all arrested in the engine house of the armory, together with Brown and his son, and Evan Stevens, when the United States marines broke in the doors and charged upon the insurgents. Cook, who had been with two followers at the Kennedy farm carting away the arms from there while Brown took possession of the arsenal, returned to Harper's Ferry on the evening of the 18th of October; but finding his com- mander hemmed in by the military, he fled, and was sub- sequently arrested near Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, on the 26th of October. Strenuous efforts have been made to save Cook from his ignominious fate by Governor Willard, of Indiana, his brother-in-law,and other friends; but without avail. A strong attempt in Coppie’s favor has also been made tothe Virginia Legislature, but that body refuses to commute his sentence; so that both prisoners will have to meet their terrible doom to-day. It is arranged to deliver the body of Cook to his friends at Williamsburg, and that of Coppie to his mother in Iowa. ‘The poor negroes, having no one to claim them, will be buried where they die. The scene of to-day at Charles- town will probably be the last in the Harper’s Ferry tra- gedy, as there appears to be a disposition not to press the prosecution against the remaining prisoners, Stevens and Hazlitt, to the bitter end. Should the body of Cook arrive on Sunday, it will be taken to some private place and kept until Monday, when funeral exercises will be held in the Dutch Reformed church, corner of Fourth and South Third streets, Wil- Mamsburg. The consistory of the church have volunteered the use of the church for this purpose, on condition that the exercises should not take place on Sunday. It is thought that the remains wi not arrive before Monday morning. OUR CHARLESTOWN CORRESPONDENCE. Caantestow, Va., Dec. 12, 1869. Preparations for the Eaecution of the Prisoners—The Ezxecu- tion tole Public—The New York Union Meeting Looked Sor in Virginia—The Independent's Charge about Brown's Notes om Beecher Repelled—Stevens Swears that he Saw Brown Write Them, dc., dc. ‘The precautionary measures taken by Governor Wise to insure the carrying out of the hanging of John Brown have necessarily involved a continuance thereof as regards Cook, Coppie, and the, two negroes. The experience of the past two weeks has palpably demonstrated that our chivalric Governor has, in a great measure, overrated the threatened danger—so far, at least, as the power of John Brown’s friends to rescue him was concerned. I do not think, however, tbat the will and disposition on the part of Brown’s friends and sympathizers to do go have deen in the least degree overrated. They undoubtedly porsessed the will, but were sadly lacking in the way, owing, I doubt not, to the prudent foresight and precau- tions taken by Governor Wise to prevent it. There are now here upwards of nine hunired efficient and reliabie troops, consisting of infantry, riflemen, artillery and cavalry. Of that number I recognize but five out of fifteen companies who were here prior to and at the timo of Brown’s execution; the remaining ten companies have been. ordered bere within the past week to take the place of the Richmond city regiment. To day there was adress parade, in which eleven companies participated, and the military display was really very imposing. I understand that there will not be on next Friday, the 6tb—the day appointed for the execution of Cook, Cop- pie and the two negrocs—the same rigor in excluding those who may desire to witness the awful sight as was the case when Brown was hung. The citizens of the town generally express themselves very freely on this point, and declare that if the citizens of the county and sur- rounding country feel an inclination that way they should not be exch ‘The Judge directed that the execution should be , and the Sheriff ig, I learn, going to pub- lish a card to that effect. From what I cao see there is evidently a ‘“‘acrew loose’? somewhere between the civil and military powers here. This is to be regretted, and will, I trust, be put right at once. The number of strangers bere now is considerably less than two weeks ‘That the town will be again over- ran by Friday I have no doubt, especially in view of the determination of the Sheril: to carry out the directions of the Court to have the execution not semi public, but wholly #0. The same vigilance exists, and the moment a stranger is seen in the place a bundred eager, scrutinizing watchfn} yes are upon him, and he bas to run the gaunt. let of @ legion of men ready to pounce on him at the slightest sign from thoee in authority. This may be right a8 things exist, but it is, nevertheless, very annoying. I would advise, then, all who know themselves tainted with abolitioniem or the dilution thereof—republicanism—to steer clear of this section of country. The present state of affairs existing in Congress is very general na canvaseed and discussed. Toe prevailing opinion here is that the plurality rale wili ultimately prevail, and then the republicans will carry the day and precipitate iters to a final crisis, May such @ catastrophe be averted, and may the administration democrats and the South Americans and auti-Lecompton democrats untte and elect a Union man, no matter whom, so he is for the Union first, last and always. fhe papers are eagerly sconned by al! here to find out what New York city is going to do in the way of a public cemonstrauon in regard to the late hurrah over John Brown #0 gererally at the North. The citizens of this section of Virginia exprese much sincere regret that New York city was not the first to give av expression of con- demnation of the abolition sympathizers with Brown, Well, the 20th will soon be here, and then will go forth to the world, from out the depths of the Empire City of the Union, the verdict of condemnation of Brown and his friends, apd their odjous, horribie principles, Boston and Philadeiphia bave moved in the matter, and expressed in terms not to be mistaken thrir conctemnation. It is for New York now, vpon whom the eyoe of the nation are eagerly Axed, to settle forever the fate of the Union. That her heart, the great living ceptre of the Union, will open wh generous, sincere, truthful accord, aud respond with trumpet tones to the call of the South, there can be no doubt. The South, and Virginia in particular, is anxious- ly awaiting the action of the public meeting to be held re on Tuesday, the 20th. That there will be predomi- nant the true conservative feeling, 1, 1or one, rest fully assured, The South does not ask for sympathy merely; but she looks for, expects, deeds. The rampant, fanatic! crew, compored of Garrison, Giddings, Phillips and the like, must be taught by the really conservative men of the ‘North that they have gone far enough, and that henceforth the rights of the South ‘‘ shall and must be respected,” and that the “ Upion shall and must be preserved.” Governor Willard, of Indiana, brother-in-law of Cook, and two ¢isters of Cook, are expected here to-morrow fToentay); also Mr. Voorhies, Cook's eminent counsel. ‘he action taken by the Legislature last week in regard to Cook and the other prisoners bas, I presume, very clear- ly ehown Governor Willard that thefe is now no hope whatever of a pardon, or rather commutation of the sen- tence, Oook’s wife is also expected here ina few days.

The Declaration of Governor Wise before the House and Senate Committees having under Consideration the Memori alin behalf of Coppic— Interesting Debate im the State Senate on the Report of the Committee of Courts of Justice on the Memorial—Coppie to be Hung—The Legislature on the Military Organization—Manufacture, of Gunpowder, de, dc, ‘The declaration of Governor Wise before the Senate and House Committees for Courts of Justice, which had under courideration last night the memorial in behalf of Coppice, has excited the highest possible admiration of his bold- ness and independence, even amongst the very members of the committee who were opposed to commutation of Coppie’s sentence, ‘The Governor said that there should be some distinction made between the guilt of Coppie and the other prisoners, in view of the concern which the former manifested for the safety of the prisoners captured by Brown. He egaid, moreover, that had the Base of Cop- pie come withia his jurisdiction, he would have commuted his sentence, even though every man in the State de- manded bis execution. This bold avowal took the com- mittees evidently by surprise; and the general pre- sumption among the large crowd of outsiders who were present at the investigation was that the committees would not hesitate to re- commend a commutation of sentence after so candid a declaration by the Governor, The joint committees for courts of justice of both houses consist of twenty-four members, of whom but five were in favor of commuta- tion, to wit: four of the Senate commitice and one of the House committee. Five of the former, and fourteen of the latter, were opposed to commutation—a result which took every one who heard the declaration of the Governor somewhat by surprise. But the members of the com- mittees had doubtless too keen an appreciation of the popular feeling upon this subject to make any recom- mendation in conflict with the sentence of the Court. TRE MEMORIAL OF COPPIR IN THE SENATE. An interesting debate took place in the Senate to-day upon the report of the Committee for Courts of Justice, on the memorial of Thomas Winn for the commutation of Coppie’s sentence, The report consisted of a resolution declaring it inexpedient to recommend a commutation of sentence. Mr. Jonxson, of Bedford county, moved to lay the whole subject upon the table until to-morrow, inorder ‘that time may be afforded for its consideration. He ad- dreesed the Senate brietly in sapport of his motion, urging, as a reason for postponement of further consideration of this subject until the time specified, its great importance. Mr. Cocumt, of Amherst, advocated the adoption of the report of the committee without further delay. He said nothing had transpired to induce him to vote for a diffe- rent punishment to Coppie from that to be inflicted on the other prisoners. Mr. THomas M. Ienmxz, of Jefferson county, said:—Mr. President, it seems to me that after the action of the court of Jefferson county in convicting this maa, Coppie, whom it is now sought to place in a position different from that of the other prigoners convicted; after the action of the Hovse of Delegates some few days ago, in opposition to any interposition by the General Assembly in behalf of theee prisoners; after the action of that branch of the Le- gislature this very day, 1 scarcely eee any reason why a motion should be made now in the Senate for the purpose of considering the subject any further. ‘The PRESIDENT #aid it was in order to refer to the action of the House. Mr. Jouxsox—At the time I made the motion I was not aware of the action of the House of Delegates. As soon a8 the Senator gets through with his remarks I sha!! with- draw that motion. Mr. Ispx1s—I only refer to the action of the House sim- ply because it was reported here by a messenger from that body. THe Pees ‘was compelied to nbsent myself for a few minutes to-day, and am therefore ignorant as to what transpired during the brief interval ef my absence. The Clerk, however, informs me that no formal message was received from the House in reference to its action upon the memorial under consideration. It is therefore out of order for the Senator to refer to what transpired in the Houge. Mr. Isnet1—In respect to the propriety of this pardon I desire to say ape or two words. J do not think that any distinction showld be made between the cases of any of those who have been found guilty by the Court. Cogpie, as was shown in the testimony adduced before the Court and Jury before whom he was tried, was one of the most determined and desperate men who was engaged in the encounter at Harper's Ferry. If he was a more generous devil than the others, he is entitled to whatever credit attaches to that characteristic. But, Mr. President, it was shown by the testimony presented on the trial, that he ‘was the very man who occupied a front position in the engine house, and that it was by a ball discharged from hi Sharpe's rifle the Mayor of Harper's Ferry was killed. He snbse- quently received the applause of his commander .in-chief, 80 called, for the flaelity with which he inflicted the death wound upon that geptieman. Wh: ~ Ton fo Cappo and HOLT COOK, woo had oe Bene BAN victed of treason? It has been shown that Cook occu- pied heretofore very respectable relations in socwty; but this man Coppie was shown by the tesumony introduced before the Court to haye been one of the most deter- mined and desperate of all those insurrectoniste, and, 80 far as 1 know, bas been as unrepeptant as any man among the rumber of bis coniederates upon whom sentences of death bas been parsed: Ihave yet to hear of one singlo man in the county of Jeflerson, other than thoes men- tioned by the gentleman from’ Bedford (Mr. Jobngon) who is tu favor of extending pardon or commutation ol sentence to any of those provers. There ig no voice or Petition coming up from that county for mercy to Coppie or apy of his associates. Bur, sir, they whose quict has been disturbed by these insurgents, they whose homes have been invaded, could probably receive no ‘froater shock by apy action of the Senate of ‘irginia, than would be inflicted by extending pardon to thrse men, whose hands sre dripping with the very gore of thier frients. This is the first time that £0 grove an offence bas been committed againat the State of Virgina, and, go far as 1 am informed, the first proceeding under the taw of treason that has ever taken place, This preceeomg sprang from an offence which is calculated to disturb the iohabitants of our whole northern border, and it becomes us to make such exem- ples of the marandera now convicted nnd under sentence ag Will operate to restore confidence to these people and deter others trom similar acts ot murder and rapine. It is said, Mr. President, that this man Coppie was deceived as to the mctives of John Brown in coming to Virginia. He could not bave been deceived. He was one of that band who bad put upon his conscience the oath of fidelity to Brown in subverting the government and exciting the slaves tov rebellion. He is as much guilty of murder as any man convieted before our courts—ne much guilty, if not more guilty, than John Brown himsof; for, 80 far as I am aware, it was not sbown in’ evidence that Brown shot anybody in that struggle. This mian Coppice ‘war, moreover, fully cognizant of and. partteipater in the mihtary preparations set on foot at Brown’s farm some months previous to the invasion. He stands precisely in the samo position with the other prisoncrs who were con- victed of murder and exciting slaves to rebellion, All of them presented the plea that thy es not for the pur- Of staugbtering our citizens, but of carrying off Property—with the intention, not to commit any act of personal violence upon the people of tbe Common- ‘wealth, except when that people decided to resist them in their unjawful course. In view of these facts, Mr. Presi- dent, Tam in favor of witbholdivg from the Executive of this State the power of pardoning Coppie or any other of the prisoners convicted at Charlestown, for their connection with the Harper’s Ferry invasion, Bot, sir, it is said, that baving upheld our laws and enforced our authority~thit having vindicated our- relves before the whole country, and shown to the North anc to the South, and to the whole world in fact, that we can defend ourselves and mean to do it, and enforce our laws against whomscever may dare to violate them—that having presented these vin- dications to the world, we might temper justice with mercy, and pardon these meu, who have been the greatest offenders against our laws that have ever been brovght before our courts for trial. 1 say that, in the ex. isting relations between the North and South, it becomes rather the daty of Virginia to give notice to the whole world that he who dares place his foot upon her goil with the'eame hellish purpose that actuated the prisoners now in her custody at Charlestown shall hang as igh as Haman, ana that no mercy shail be accorded to him who comes in the dead of night to murder our cittzens. I be- lieve that it is fmpoliue to extend this pardon to Coppie, or any other of those privovers. 1 believe that we shalt beet subserve our interests by upholding our laws, and executing al) persons of thie class as coon after conviction as may be convenient. While I am a Jaw abiding mun, while I baye been educated to deheve that all criminals ehould be brought before a court of justice and have the benefit of al) the forms of trial, yet, on occasions of thig fort, on the spur and excitement of the actual tranrac- Won itself, with ali these preconceived opiorons and foel- ings, I fear I should almost doubt my ability to insist that the criminals should bave the benefit of a trial should they de taken by our own citizens. For this reason I am utter- ly opposed, in every aspect in which this case can bo presented, to aby mercy being shown to this man. Mr. Thomas, of Fairfax—Like the Senator from Bedford (Mr. Jobpeon), when this matter was presented for con- sideration eleewhere, I agreed with bim, sir, that perbaps it would be politic on the part of the State of Virginia, Daving vindicated her laws, having shown that she was able to maintain her sovereignty and uphold ber integri- ty at every hazard—Ithought that having accomplished al) this, she might temper justice with mercy in desliag with these prisoners. The Governor of Virginia appeared before the committee and evlightened that body very mnch in reference to the action and extent of Coppie’s guilt in this Harper's Ferry affair, #0 far as it was known to him. He said, moreover, that from his knowledge of Joppie’s relation to the whole movement, and particularly his couree with reference to tho prisoners whom Brown had captured, he would have taken upon himself tho responsi- bility of commuting his sentence to imprixonment fur lifo, though in that act he should not have the approval or ranction of a single individual ia the State. And this he said be would do, because ho belicved the act to be Just and right. This declaration, coupled with statements made by gentlemen tamiliar with Coppie, complimentary to bis previous character, together with other circam- stances extennating bis gnitt, which were detailed, made an tmpression upon my mind which induced mo thon to vote in favor of a commutation of bis sentence I was wijling that a discriminetion should be made in reference to the pun{sbraesit. to be ms ted out to thoxe prisoners, aud if nothing bad tranrpired sine then that was calemated to change My mind upon the subject, 1 wonld now have doen foand with thaFonater Srom Ledford, (Mr. Jobsson,) favoring @ postponement of fer, ore votng im favor Governor to commute 3 E i if in this career of infamy. met pa read from the New York Hera of tho 12th inst. the following letter addressed by Coppie to Mrs. Brown, and read in connection with the funeral oration recently delivered over John Brown at his home in New a ait Cnanymarown Jatt, Va., Nov. 6, 1889.

Yoursteuly, EDWsN OOPPIK, Mr. Taomas (continuing)—Now, Mr. President, when this youth, Pet Had gad ca Adnvintecmiea bekeaeen ak sir, in that feelmg which I heve no doubt now prom him to become a ‘ticipator in the Brown invasion; pe brethren at Har “enemies,” against whom he was deathblow, and as the Senator from Jeflerson dell) raid, he iia do; when, now, ae of 4 bimeelf upon the mercy and the generos! © poop! of Virginia, he proclaims that we are his enemies, Thave no feeling of pity or commiseration for him, and will vote in favor of the report of the committee, declaring it inexpedient to interpose in his behalf. Mr. Jouxson, of Bedford—Mr. President, the conclasion at which I had arrived respecting the case of Coppie was caused by the testimony that came before the committee which had the memorial under consideration. Acco! to my judgment at that time, the testimony was sufficient to warrant the General Assembly in authorizing the Go- vernor to commute the sentence of Coppie, as he seemed rn to do, The testimony of the Governor bimself, and the earnest manner in which he spoke in behaif of Coppie, furnished safficient ground for ‘me to concede this power to him, and so far as I was con- cerned I determined to do so. My remarks here this morning were founded altogether upon the beeen which came before the committee. If the facts whic! have been disclosed here now in the remarks made by the Senator from Jofferson (Mr. Isbell) had been known tome lest evening, when I was upon the committee, 1 confess that my mind would have come toa very different con- clusion. One importaat fact mentioned by the Senator from Jefferson, and which 1 had sapposed, from the state- ment of the Governor, to be the contrary of what he repre- rents, is that Coppie was ascertained to be the person who Bred the ball that proved fatal to the Mayor of Harper’s Ferry. The Governor's information, as communicated to the committee, was that none of the gentlemen slain in the encounter fell by the hands of Coppie. Intl fcems the Governor was mistaken. I say now, sir, that from the facts discloged before me on yesterday, my judgment and feelings were in favor of a commutation of Coppie’s sentence from the death penalty to imprisonment for life in the penitentiary. After hearing the remarks of the Sevator from Jefferson, however, my mind has come toa very different conclusion. 1 therefore beg leave to withdraw my motion to lay the resolution on the table, with @ view to its consideration at a future time. Leave having been given to withdraw the motion, the uestion was taken on adopting the resolution reported by e committee, declaring it inexpedient to recommend & commutation of gentence, and decided in the affirmative, ‘MEMORIAL IN HERALY OF COPPDE IN THE HOUSE. The House of Delegates took no action in the matter. The Committee of Couris of Jostice of that house, to whom the memorial was also referred, reported that it was inex- Peojent to interpose. The report will probably be allowed to sleep. The Latest from Charlestown. THE CONDBMNED HARPER'S FERRY CONSPIRATORS. Caariestown, Dec. 15, 1859. ‘The hotels and private houses here aac all crowded. Strict surreillavce is kept on strangers, though those who come from curiosity and are well vouched for on the ques- tion of our “ peentiar institutions” are allowed to remain. ‘Three Quaker friends of Coppie, with whom he lived in Obio during his boyhood, visited him yesterday.
