AV" A correspondent of the Tribune writes
to that sheet that there are no idiots or lunatics
in Morris; Tioga county ; giving eve reason
that the people are all Republicans, and take,
143 copies of the Tribune. But the truth is
that ciiie-tenthi of the voters voted the Dem
ocratic ticket, at the late election, and only
three Tribunes are takeri in the town. What
reliable correspondents the Tribune has!
- - 1
Gerrit Smith a Republican.
‘Sine(
-it has become known that Gerrit
Smitl was,in!olved in the llarper's Ferry
schep ~ some newspapers have stated that he
was a" - Bepublican." The New York Tribune
in order to clear the skirts of its party of such
adisgrace, denies It; : alleging. as • a reason
that he probably he did not vote for Fremo'nt,
in 15,56. But unluckily for the veracity of
the Tribune,- as well as for the honor' of its
party, the Express hunts up the Tribune Al
manse for I:1857; wherein he is classed as a
" Republiciu" Member of Congress i s As this
was the year after the Fremont defeat, the
present denial 'of the Tribune is entitled to
no credit. Tile:Tribune Almanac is good
authority 4 among its followers; they believe
it next (and some in preference) to the Bible;
and if it says Smith is a ‘.Republicann, is, it
not so, gessra. - Repnblicans I - ' . •
Gerrit Smith Crazy.
Gerrit Smith is crazy. He mas taken to
the lunatic asylum at litka last week, where
be is - tow confined. He raves constantly
. .abcait ilsipees Ferfy, and imagines,tliat he
Las been arrested for his comphcity in that
afiair ; and no doubt expects soon to . be tried,
convicted, and Flung, in company with bun
dredi of his fellow-conspirators, as a just pun
-"isl.ment -for the wicket elauglitering -of so
many innocent victims to sstiate the. blood-
thirty de's:gos of the anti.eissery fanatics.
"icor Gerrit'::: . He falissa iictim to his own
wichedntais. How many More of the ging ,
will get crazy and sate the. hangman's fee? ,
But it is a pity that the lintelleot of Smith'
should be thus destroyed. Had it been proli
elly directed. it might, have done the world
tr:uchlood, initead of being prostitatid to 'a
fatal extremity, at the eltrine of niggerism
No requisition bad biien isaged for his ar

oea BiownTi Politics,
Drown -ash generally been called - a
Republican, bet the Opposition press,—the
!few York Tribune and the Montrose Rep'ub
licst among them—.4Teny it, balling him an
abolitionist.
'We don't; deny that be is an abolitionist,
but when it ii denied that be is a Republi.
can, the varacity.of the Tribune, is, even by
its'elf called in question. On the latb of Oct,
eSS, the Tribune held thii language as to
the unfortunate old man whom his patty now
politically repudiates:
- " Old. Jelin Brciwn of Ossawottamie and
title-tenths :of his :co-defendeis of ilieedom
in Kansas •were and are lignblieans, and
migrated thither under the,impulse of Repu&-
lican ideas and convictions. But for the Re
publicans' and the sentiments which called_
that - party into being, there would have been
no (or at least not enough) strong arms and
brave spirits in Kansas to save her from 'Bor
der Ruffians and slaveholding dominion in
1857—'59.
There is the whole truth. Why is it. that
the Tribune is now so eager to repudiate those
whom it then
. su warmly approved 1

who were in favor of settling our troubles

Hinton and Conway.
The Lecompton constutition itself was next
made tbh pretext for bringing on war. Whoever
is able to call up the incidents of 22d and 23d

will be able to comprehend that to which . we

MZy, 1856, appeared and took charge of the
marauding forces. They attempted to make
the whole population of Missouri responsible
for the horrid murder near Chatteau's Trad

with men in the East, who declared cur' the
stomp, and in all their published correspond
ence, that their " only hope abut islitn,..o slitvery
in the United States lay through revolution;"
and from them he received funds from time

did not go alone. John E.-Cook, who figured
so consptcuously with the do nothings in

OLD BROWN NOT OSSAWATOMIE
BROWN,
The , cognomen of "Ossawatomie" Ems very
generally been applied to old John Brown,
though incorrectly; Brown was never a resi
dent of Ossawatomie, but resided some eight
miles above that plane, un Pottawatetaie
week. The title, originally, was applied to
0. C. Brown,,h , 'N.,-e. resident ofOs•awatomie,
and one of the projectors , of that settlement.
and proprietor of the town cite. Presses and

How They Take It.
Says the New Haven Register: "The sym
pathy of the Bieck Republicans with old
I trown and his traitorous gang, is being, more
and more plainly indicated every day. ,Now
That his tilel is over, and he lies under sen
tence of death fur his crimes, the Black Re
publioanjournals, one-by one,. stealthily be
gin to poke their. noses from the biding pla
ces where they at. first took refuge from the
gathering storm of popular indignation, and
venture upon such comments as clearly show
their complicity with the murderous affair at
Harper's Fer,y, and their deep regret at its
failure. We say this, meaning just what - we
say, and with deep mortification, that journals
can be found so lest to every prompting of
patriotism, or even ordinary morality, as to
utter such attrocious seniiinent4 as we find in
the Norwich Bulletin.' We give them l our
readers as a sampfe Of Black 'Republicanism.

Tea Reunions PRESS ON OLD BROWN.—
The New York Observer, organ of the Old
School' Presbyterian-, takes vt - rong:ground
against pardoning old Brown. Assuming that
lie was guilty of murder and insurrection, it
argi,es ss follows;"'Punishment in the gov
ernment of God' and man does not Tripe,
ft. In a spi,it of revenge. 'is/the fruit of love.
r Love demands that nue who has made war
upon society shall die. Philanthrophy, the
love of the love ofthe human race, the
love of the greatest number, requires that
murderers Abell be punished, as God, who is
love, ordained. * * i* And we tremble
less id the view of Browns mad freak, than
we do in taco of the fact that there is abroad
in the land a sentiment that would ( shield
him and otbers.fram the just:consequences of
their crimes. When those men embarked in
this warapon the State; when they prepared.
guns - for 'the white men arid a thousand
spears for the blacks to be used in barbarous
slaughter; when they imbued their hands in
blood by taking the first victim.' (an honest
colored map who made no resistance, but
was ohly seeking to escape from their bands,)
and murdered him in cold blood ; when they
refused to lay down their arms after - beipg
overpowed, and continued their murderous
wotk, they then threw away. all claim to
compassion and put themselves on the haz
and of the revolution they had - begun. If
whets can find any cause for pardoning such
crime') we cannot.'

The first thing the people cf hated •
o stobta.l3rOwn was in the seamier of
AMiteiing of ultra ebolit4sts - was
held at Cazenovia, tN. • Y., .if we recollect
rightly. While in session Brown, who is a
native of Essex cotinty, N. Y., appealed • in
that convention, and made a very fiery speech,
during which be said be had four sons in
Kansas, and he had three others who were
desirous of going there, to aid in fighting the
battles of freedom. Be could not- consent to
go unless he could go armed, and be would
like to arm all Ids sons, but was not able r to s
do so. 'Funds were contribnted on the spot,
principally by -Gerrit Smith.
The four sons had located utrPottawatamie.
creek, in Lckins county; and in the fall of
1855 were joined by the father and other
brothers. When the Wakarusa war 'was ,
pending the old man add four soils arrived in
Lawrence; the balance be reported 'sick. As
they driers upin front of their:oe State Bo
tel, they were all standing in a small luciiber
wagon. To each of then. persons was strapp
ed a short heavy broadsword. Each was sup-1
plied with' a goodly cumber of firearms and
navy revolvers, and poles were standing end- I
wise around the wagon box With fixed bayon
ets pointing upwards. They looked really
formidable, rtud.were received with great cc j
lot. A email military company. was organ
ized at once, and the command was given to
Old Brown. From that moment, he com
menced fomenting diffieulties in camp, di-re-
`gelding the coMmands of superior ..otlicers
and frying to induce the men to go down to
Franklin and make an attack upon the pro
slayery,forces encamped there. The Commit
tee of radio. Safety were called upon several I
times to heed off hig wild adventure, as the
people of Lawrence had planted themselves
on the law, claiming that they had not been
guilty of its infraction, and that no armed
body i 4 men should enter the haw° for any
purpose whatever, and that they would not go
out of town to attack any such' body, Peac - e
was established and old Brown retired in dis
gust.
When the news of the threatened siege of
Lawrence reached John Brown, Jr:, who was
a,Member of the Topeka Legislature, he or
ganized a company of about sixty Jima and
marched towards• Lawrence. Arriving at
Palmyra, he learned of the sacking of
the town and. the position of the people.—
Be reconnoitered for a time in the vi
cinity, but finally marched back to Ossa.
watornie. The night before reaching that
place, when only a few miles away, they
catnpedfor the night. Old Jehn . Brown, who,
we believe was with the party,. singled out,
with himself, seven men. These he. marched
to a point eight miles above the mouth of
Pottawatotnie creek, and called front their
beds at their several residences, at the, boor of
midnight on, the 25th of May, ]856, Allen
,William Sherman, Widiath P.
Doyle. William Doyle and Drury Doyle. All
were found the next mornin by the roadside
or in the highway, some with a gash in their
heads and sides and their throats set; others ,
with their skulls ,split open fwo place-,
with boles in their breasts and hands,cut uff ;
and others had bales through their. breasts,
with their finger's cutoff. No man- in Kan
sas has pretended to deny that old John
Brown led that murderous foray. which mas
sacred those men. , Up to that period 'not a
hair of old John Brown's 'heed, or that of
any of his eons, had been'injzired by the pro
stayer§ party.
It was
,not until the 30th of August, three
ruorchs xfwr the Potawaturnie massacre:l
that the attack was made on Osiseeaioreie by
I
the pro slavery forces, and Frederick Brbwri,
a son of Old John, was killed. '
