PROMINENT REPUBLICANS IMPLICA
We present from the published correspon
dence of Col. H. Forbes, such facts as would
appear to conned many prominent Repub
bans with the operations of the notorious
bapt. Brown. These linters were addressed
F. B. Sariborn, who is, or was, the Secretary
of the Massachusetts Emigrant Aid Society.
This Col. H Forbes was connected with
Garibaldi in the defence of Rome in the rev
olution of 1848.' Coming to the United
~taNty t beseems to have been employed by,
the Abolitionists in connection with Brown
to operate in Kansas and elsewhere, as it
Might be deemed advisable• Col. Forbes, it
appears, was to receive funds from his em
ployers to be transmitted to his family in
Europe . in consideration of his services; but
it MIMS out that the contract Made with him
by (lie Abolitionists was not performed on
their part, and the consequence was that his
family was greatly impoverished.
The first letter is dated M Now Yorir. on
tho 9th of January, 1858, and recotints the
suffering's of hie family, and Ike nonnler
ferlianctof hid empleyere in tho matter of

LI:Y
In
this salmi letter to Sanborn, Forbes
says that Mr. Greeley told him that lie

to have known the mon' promised 'would
not be paid. Slid although Mr. Greelay be
lieved in the higher law, there was no nay
in which he (Forbes) , could obtain redre'as
by the lower law, and in this way excused
the non-performance of the contract which
has been made with Forbes. '

INTERTIEW WITH SEWARD
WABIIINGTON, May 6, 1858 —To Dr. S.
O. [lows, M. D., Boston, Mass. • —On Satur
day (lot May) I had an interviut; with Sena
tor %Vm. 11. Seward, of New York, having
been introduced to On through a letter from
a leading Abolitionist, Dr. 'Bailey, of the
Era. I went fully into the whole matter,
in all its bearings. Ile expressed regret that
he bad been tbld,and slid th&t he, in Hip
position, ought not to .have boon informed of
tho circumstances. In part I agree with him
and in part I differ. I regret that 'the mis
conduct of ihe New Englanders should have
forced me to address myself to him ; but
being now enlightened on the subject, ho
cannot well let this business continuo in its
present crooked condition, instead 'of causing
it to be ",put strait," both, as regards my
ohildron's situation as Wlell as the cotton
gpeculatibn of the humanitarians.
Forbes next mentions an accidental meet
ing with John P. Bale, but such was distress
oi•his fatiikli t4st be did not then refer to
Brown's plan.
The next letter is Prefaced with the follow
ing memorandum
" Please show to Messrs. Sanborn, Law

As Forbes professed to be a capable and
experienced military officer, especially quali
fied for guerrilla or .bcri(lair warfare,, and as
he had always claimodln be an earnest Red
Republican and foe of every form of human
Slavery, I thought his resolution natural aild
commendable. Knowing him to be poor, I
gave him sao as he was starting ; others
gave him larger sums ; how much . In all I do
not knolit ; butaf think his total receipts
from friends of Free Kansas, on account of
hie resolve, cannot hive fallen below $7OO.
Ile went—was absent sevtn months—came
hack—that is all 1 know of services to
the Free State cause in any shape. Whelk
-6r becaurie he was not needed, or was not
trusted, or was found incompetent, I do not
know—l only know that hd did nothing,
and was practically worth nothing. I be

in firinting a pailphlet embodying his no

course, no dollar ever.CSine bark.
To this hour, Thave never learned who
Brown (or any one else) promised Forbes,
nor how fat the,' promiser professed to have
the right to commit others. I do not be- 1 1
Ikea that John Brown ever wilfully deceived I
him or any ono else. I very sure that
no one was ever authorised to engage the
services of “001. Febes" in behalf the Free
State mon of Kansas, on condition that said
Forbes should be authorised to charge his
Own - price for those services, and draw at
pleasure on someresponsible party for pay- I
merit. I hide neer heird any eite'slerstent
o! the matter but Forbes ; and r confidently
infer from this, that if there was mutual
misunderstanding and disappointment in
the promises, the employing party had deci
dedly the worst of it.

party to discard Mr. tlidthngs, one of their

true test of the professions now made by a

they not repudiate Mr. Seward and hut doc

At adarktivilleAti , Mr.- Lewis, le lawyer,
presented to the court a brief which contain
ed insulting language towards Judge Cul
lom. The judge; hiving left the Bench,
slapped .'the offending lawyer in the face.—
Afterwards the two men met in the street
and fired away at each other, and Lewis
was slightly mounded. Bystanders then
interfered.. The next day the judge opened
Court and disposed of all the business before
it, and then sent word to Lewis to know if
he desired to renew the contest. As he did
not, the ease was ended.
The llon. Sairidel Chilton, who was coun

the Washington Star, in response to wrap,
piication from Montgomery Blair, Esq., who
guaranteed hito a fee of 81,000, to be pidd
