CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE IMPLIGATING OLD J0HN BROWN. ‘Tho anti-Slavery Society in Lawrenco, Kansas, at their meeting hold on the 19th inst., in referring to the marder of the Doyle family, fathor and sona, did not deny thatold Jobn Brown wes the leader of the party who committed that horrid butchery; but rosolved “that according to the ordinary rulea of war said trassaction wag not unjustia- able, but that it was porformed from tho sad necoscity which existed at that timo to dofond the lives and liber- ties of the settlers in that region.” This anti slavery meot- ing was attended by tho loadera of the republican party io Kansas,among whom was Charles Robinson, the now- ly electod Governor under tho State constitution. Conside- rable debate sprang up on tho adoption of the above re- solution, during which it was stated thot oid Brown ad- mitted to tho speakers that he participated in the Potta- wottomio massnero. We give a portion of the debate:— Capt. Sanvat Wanker said Old Joka Brown told him tha; he was present at the massacre on Pottawottomic creek on the night of the 24th of May, 1856,and that be approved of that act.
