GSHEBAL liES A-WD old johs BEOWN. A letter to the .Pittsburgh Chronicle, from Harper’s Ferry, says: ; ... , It was not known to me until yesterday, and may possibly be unknown to you, that Colo ml Robert E. Lee, IJ. S. Army, now General Lee, Confederate forces, was one of the chief actors ' in the prologue to the tragic national dram:, the different acts of which the whole country has been watching with such exciting interest for the past three years. It is, nevertheless the fact, however. Let me tell you about it briefly. ' “Old John Brown” -had not only worked at the arsenal at Harper’s Ferry, but tvas intimately acquainted with all the de tails of the works, and knew, besides, what building among the ruins of some fifty now remaining, was the strongest for defence. This was the engine house, and at ter mak ing a little raid to HaUtown and capturiug Col. Lewis Washington, among other slaveholders of the Shenandoah Valley, he moved back to the Ferry, and ensconced himself with his twenty followers in this engine house. The alarm 'throughout Harper’s FSrrv that night was terrible, and during the whole of the fol lowing live-long day Brown held his position, and having made port-holes through the brick Avails, shot several citizens who had the temerity to show themselves about the building. The lookers on were terror-stricken, and the two thousand Virginia Militia men, with their Cap tains, Colonels, and Generals, who' had as sembled in the vicinity of John Brown’s strong, told, not knowing the force that he really had were completely non-plussed, and waited anx iously for the Government troops from Wash ington, who had been sent for. By three o’clock the following morning, sixty marines, under the immediate command of Lient. Green, but directed by Col. Robert E. Lee, reached the Ferry by cars, from the capital. Col. Lee ordered his detail to stand under arms in’ the public street till sunrise, when he conducted the men, he himself leading ' them, to the front of the building fortified aud . occupied by Brown. The lookers-on viewed this soldierly movement with astonishmeut and awe, expecting to see Colonel Lee shot “down as other leaders had been. But not a shot was fired. Lieutenant Green was ordered to demand a surrender. He knocked at the door of the engine house. John Brown asked, “Who goes there?” “Lieut. Green, United. States Marines, who, by authority of Col. Lee, demands an immediate surrender.” “I refuse It,” said Brown, “unless I, with my men, are allowed to cross the bridge again into Maryland, unmolested, after which you can take us pri oners if you can.” Lee refused to allow this, and ordered .Lieut. Green to renew his demand for an immediate and unconditional surrender. John Brown refused these terms, and four of the marines, who had got tremendous sledge hammers from the works, began battering at the door of the engine house. The engine had been moved against the door, and it would not yield. “ Ten of you,” said Lee, “ take that ladder and break down the door.” Five on each side, the soldiers drove the ladder against the door, and at the third stroke it yielded and fell back. Gol. Lee and the marines jumped In—one man John Brown shot through the -heart—and then was overpowered and sur rendered. Col. Washington, with other citi zens, was released, and John Brown handed over to the civil authorities, after which Colonel Lee took the train to Washington again. And such is the historical episode which I listened to last night from a citizen who was liimself a witness to it. Who knows how much it may have influenced Robert E. Lee to for sake the flag of the United States and become a chieftain in the rebel cause ? Extbess Robber Convicted. —The trial of A. P. Murphy, of Uniontown, Pa.; lately agent of the Adams Express Company at that place, took place last week, before Jndge Lindsay. As young Murphy had previously occupi 3d a fine position in society there, and as the amount alleged to have been taken by him was over $2,000, a great deal of interest was manifested, and there was > a large attendance during the trial. The testimony was very full and conclu sive against the accused, and the jury had no - difficulty in finding a verdict of- guilty. The prisoner maintained an attitude of entire indif ference during the trial. Upon the rendition of the verdict, and the remarks aud sentence of the Court, although he is not yet twenty-one years of age, the Conrt stated to him that it was evident he had accomplices who were more guilty than he, and that if he would divulge their names the sentence would be made as light as possible. He refused to do so, and was sentenced to imprisonment to the Penitentiary for eighteen months. No part of the money has been secured by the Company.

SOHENCK—Dear S.r: Se veral months since I was compelled to re linquish active business pursuits in consequence of a severe congh, contracted by exposure. I. placed myself under the treatment of my family physician for atime without apparent relief, and he finally pronounced my lungs diseased, assuring me that It was useless to seek relief from medicines. Be informed me that the only means by which my disease could be overcome was by seeking, through stimnlatingfood and proper care, to reinvigorate my system; that; if there was sufficient vigor left, 1 might thus regain ray health; otherwise, my case was hopeless. At that time I was rapidly failing, and many ofmv friends thought I was beyond all hope. My cough was very severe, sometime* last ing for nearly half an hour at a time, with a very copious expectoration, olten accompanied with blood. My appetite was very poor, and my stom ach so extremely weak that I could scarcely eat any food without being compelled to vomit immedi ately thereafter. Alter consulting various physicians without success, a friend advised me to give your medi cines a trial. In accordance with this advice I visited yon, and the examination under your Re spirometer proved very satisfactory, convincing me that you understood my case perfectly. I en tered upon the treatment prescribed, and in a short time found great relief I am now enjoying greatly improved health, my congh troubles me very lit tle, myjsppetite isgood.andmy strength gradually in ct easing. It affords me pleasure to make this acknowledg ment of the benefits I have derived -from the use of your medicines, as well as to express my grati tude therefor; and I ireely make this statement, which you are at liberty to use as you may deem proper, with the sincere hope that it may be the means ol benefiting others who may he suffering from the same disease. Yours, resp-cttuPy, Place of residence, No. 102 Market slip, N. York.

Jal4»th sa tu tjyl QIHE GREAT CENTRAL FAIR UNITED STATES SANITARY COMMISSION Office of the Committee on Laboc, Incomes and Revenues, No. US South Seventh Street, Fhiladelfhia. March is, 1561. The Commiuee on ‘-Labor, Incomes and Reve nues, ” invite co-operation with them in the particular work lor which they have beeu ap. pointed. As no portion of the people are more patriotic than the working men and women of the country, it is bat just and proper that they should alike have an opportunity to contribute to the objects of the Fair. The most equab'e plan for accomplishing this, and, at the same time the easiest one, is to ask for the contri bution of a tinqlt dry’s labor from all classes in the community. Many will contribute a day of their labor willingly, who Would not subscribe their money. Toreach every department of industry and art will be a work of great.labor, but, if at tained, will be productive of immense results The success ol the plan will dqjffad upon the hearty co-operation of every element of miluence within onr limits, and we iuvite all the guardians ol the indnstii, 1 imerests, and ail others, to lake hold with us in furihering this great work of pa triotism and humanity. The Committee is charged with the following duty, to wit: First— To obtain the contribution of “one day’s labor,” or earrings, from every artisan and la borer, foreman, operative and employe; president, cashier, teller and clerk of every incorpora'.ed and unincorporated company, railroad and express company, employing firm, bank, manufactory, iron works, oil works, mill, mine and public of fice; frem every private banker and broker; im porter, anctieneerand merchant; clerk, agent aud salesman: designer, finisher aud artist; publisher, P’inier and mechanic; from every Government officer, contractor, and employe; grocer, butcher, baker and dealer; farmer, horticulturist, and pro ducer; from every mantua-maker. milliner and fe male operative; every individual engaged in tarn ing the soil, ten ling the loom, or m any way earn ing a livelihood, or building a fortune within the States of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Dela ware. .Second—'To obtain the contribution of ono day’s ‘•revenue’ ’ from all the greatemploying establish ments, firms, corporations, companies, railroads ana works. BAXTER Third— To obtain the contribntion of one day’s Income from every retired person and person of fortune, male and female, livingupon their means, and from all clergymen, lawyers, physicians, dentists, editors, authors, and professors; and all other persons engaged in the learned or other pro fessions. Much of this ■work roust be performed by the personal influence and effort* of ladies aod geutie men associated, or to be associated, with the Com mittee in canymg out the plan. The Committee feel the responsibility of the work 'they have undertaken, which, to be successful, will require a very perfect ramification of their . plan, and they therefore call npon all earnest peo pie to assemble themselves together inevery town, township and county and form organizations of ladies and gentlemen to co-operate with them in this great weik and labor of love. In the mauu. lacturing counties, the coal and oil regions, audin the agricultural districts, especially, let there be organizations .in the larger towns, so that the young people may have an opportunity thus to render assistance to their relatives and friends fighting the battles of their country in the armies of the nationX The workyf this Committee, may be prosecuted where n o other effort csjn be made for the Fair, as in the mines of/thecoal regions. A day’s earnings of the mlueije, and a day’s product of the mines can be obtained, where no portable article could be procured fortransportation. Indeed, there is no part or section of these States where the labor may not be obtained, if organizations can be' termed to reach them. The Committee cannot close without urging npon all proprietors of establishments the duty of taking prompt and energetic action to secure the benefit of the day of labor from all within their control. The Committee deem it unnecessary to do more than thus to present the subject to the people of the three States named. In the coming campaigns of onr armies the labors of the Sanitary Commission will be greatly augmented. By the first of June, 700, CRH I men—one of the largest armies of modern times—will be opera’ing in the field. So large a force, scattered over regions to which the men are unacclimated, must necessarily carry along with it a large amount of sickness, safferingand death, to say nothing of the gathered horrors of the battle-field. These sufferings it is onr bounden duty, as men and Christians, to relieve.. A great and enlightened p*ople, enjoying the blessings of a Government of their own making, cannot retuse assistance to men suffering to maintain its authority, and we will not believe that the GREAT CBNTRAL PAIR, drawing its products from the three States of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, so aflluentm all mineral, agricultural and industrial wealth, shall fall behind any similar effort which has yet been made for the relief of the nation’s children. . - As it is dssirable not to multiply circulars, no further authority than this circular will be neces rary for any employing firm or company, or any respectable committee of ladies and gentlemen to proceed at once in the work of this committte. Subscriptions will be immediately acknowledged in the newspapers of Philadelphia, and it is very desirable that they commence at once, as each fresh acknowledgment wilj stimulate further effort. All subscriptions should be addressed to John W. Claghorn, Treasurer, Office of the Committee, No. 118 South Seventh street, Philadelphia. L. MONTGOMERY BOND, Chairman. McGregor J.
