Tohave- published all the details of the
fate insurrection at Harper’s Ferry, to
gether with even a meagre account of the
trial of Old Brown and his associates,
would have occupied all our columns, con
sequently wc have not burthened them
with -any of it, presuming that most of our
readers, who care particularly about the
transaction, have already been posted up
By the daily papers. Wc may say, how
ever, that dur ng the progress of the trial,
many men who have heretofore taken a
conspicuous pan as leaders of the Repub
lican party, have been connected in some
ways with Old Brown in his mad scheme.
Whether there is really any just reason to
'BO connect these men with such a consum
mate^piece of folly, or whether it is done
to injure them politically, time will tell.
If at be the latter, it will work to the in
jury of those en .raged in, it.
Old BVown has had his trial on the
triple, charge »of treason, conspiracy and
'murder, has been convicted, and doubtless
Before a week, will swing from the scafiold.
