COPY OF AM A MOM YIMOUS LETTER
A CLUE TO Till! MYSTERY.
The following is a oopv of tlie anonymous
letter pent to tbc Hon. Secretary of War, from
Cincinnati, some two months since, and which
affords n clue to the mystery of the insurrection
at Harper's Ferry
• Cincinnati, August 20.
"Sir:—l have lately received information
of a movement of so groat importance that I
feel i r to be my duty to imprrt it to you with
in delay.
■•I have discovered the existence of a pa
nel association, having for its object the
liber-!' t ••J the slaves of the Sooth by a
general insurrection. The lnder of the
movement ip '■' Old John Brown ," late of
Ki'sas. He has heey in Canada during tlie
winter, drilling tho negroes there, and they
are only waiting his word to start for the
South to assist 'he slaves. They hve one of
their leading m:n (a wht'o man) in 3 ' armory
ia M*rylrid; where it is situated I am not
able to learn.
As soon as everything is rosily, thosi of
tbeir number w!io are in the Northern States
and Canada are to come m smalt companies to
their rendezvous, which is in the M-iUHtsinr oi
Virgiuii. They will pass dowu through Penn
sylvania >nd .M try I and, and enter Virginia at
Harper's Ferry. Brown left the North about
three or four weeks ago, and will aim the ne
groes and strike a blow in a few weeks, so that
whatever is dono must be done at once. They
have a large quantity of arms at their ren
dezvous; and are probably distributing them
already. lam r.ot fully in tdrcir confidence.
This is nil the information 1 can give you. I
dare not sign my natrre to this, hut trust that
you will not disregard this warning on this ac
count-"
