Brown. iye alinuld not be doing justice to history If, as a candid journalist, we -did not make some allnethri to this event. That a profound senti ment has groan out of the execution of JOHN Biota fi indisputable: The keenest 'sympathy is fetand expressed on the. one' side, and an exactly adverse feeling on the other. The man himself; indomitable, peculiar, and strong in his own convictions; the cause in which he risked' and. lost - his life; the tragedy contem plated by : timaelf and his followers ; the public indignation of the people of Virginia—have, all Combined, revived many of the worst aspects of the slavery agitation. Yesterday, when Disown was executed, sympathetic meetings were held all over the North, amid scenes of uncontrollable excitement and characteristic conflict. Nor will this condition of things terminate with the sad sequel of Friday, the second._ of December. Millions will rush to read the details of the executions and the curi osity always felt after such an, event will be intensified by this. Bnowies deportment on the gallows and his last words, his parting in terviews with his wife and *lends, will las used to apotheosise his memory, and the feeling which he died to gratify among the Southern people will be responded to by the bitterest denunciation in the non-slaveholding portion of our country. • Without stopping to inquire into the guilt of Toms Rao wsr, and without criticising the 'somewhat theatrical preparations for his doom, we mist not shut our eyes to the fact that it: will require the loftiest statesmanship, and the most courageous patriotism, to allay the : ; stormy and bitter antagonism which has, un-; questionably,sewn out of this event between' the two great actions of our happy country.; The Congress of the nation will meet on Mon- ; day next. The Representatives will undonbt-; edly carry with them into this Congress many: of the feelings of their constituents. Moro than one of the Southern States of this union are, coolly contemplating the contingency of se cession, in the mad hope that such a remedy would be a - relief from peril; while the ex treme opposite sentiment, in other quarters,• grapples with and ridicules such an -alterne tire. May we not hope that in such an emer gency more than one American will be found' In the, halls of Congress to arrest this wild: spirit of criminatton and alienation That: citizen who can rise above the prejudices and: ;passions of his own region, and address him self to the reason of the country, will be enti- 1 tied to , the thanks of all his race. Many of `our most experienced men augur gloomily from the present indications of things at the Federal capital, and even those, who have re posed the utmost confidence in the power and: •perpetuity of the Union indulge in dismal ap-' prehension. At such a time, when the heart of•the nation beats heavily, and when men• look into each other's faces doubtful how long they will be .permitted to enjoy the blessings of a common country, and a common foonsti-, ft/Oen, a. grand opportunity is presented for an exhibition of a tielltsactifice on'the part of those who,. to avert an impending evil, are brave and bold enough to set their faces, and :to raise their voices and their bands against the infuriated resentments by which they aro! immediately surrounded., The Rate of Taxation for 1860. By a typographical error in the report of the proceedings of Common Council on Tina et-, .day, published in our paper .yesterday, Mrs BAOZBIL was represented . as submitting an tr 4 dinance fixing the rate of taxation for 1869 at $1.60. The -rate really propoied by Kr. B. was $l.BO. This proposition was'amended by reducing it to .$1.75 and in that shape the • ordinance passed Common Council by a vote of yeas 54, nays 11. The Select Council hai not yet acted, on the subject, but will probably concur In the action of the Common Council; The assessed'valuation of property upon which; the above rate of tax will be applied Is $155; 000,000, and the amount of revenue it is capii ble of producing is $2,712,600. The Foreign News. The last foreign news, which is important, may be stated in a few sentences. England, terribly alarmed at the presumed hostility of NAPOLEON, which, we believe, does not exist, is preparing for the• worst, and taking measures for increasing hermilitary and naval means, defensive and offensive. - The King of Sardinia seems to have tricked NAPOLEON. The Constifolltst Assemblies of Tuscany, Modena, Parrea, and Romagna elected the Prince do CaalONix Regent of Oentralltaly. VICTOR. Earawfunr. did'aot al low the Prince, his relative, to accept this re sponsible dignity. The Prince then named the Chevalier BuoNcompArors as Regent, and • Mr. Good• Company has actually started to ad• some the reins. VICTOR Enxesustea excuse to Nspoisos will be that of two evils one must ,choose the least, and that if the Chevalier with the social patronymic had not been made -Regent, Count Cevorat or General GARIBALDI would have been the man, and more difficult to manage. The Congress on Italian affairs, to assemble at Paris, will include the Five GreatPciwers (France, England, Prussia, Rus sia:, "and Austria,) and also Sardinia, Naples, ' Rome, Sweden, Portugal, and Spain. Chiva Is said to have virtually repudiated her newly ratified Treaty with this country, by reihsing to open the ports of Suintopl and Taiwan, as - thereby stipulated. We believe, however, that, by the Treaty itself, the Chinese might thus refuse, while the dispute with France and England was still pending. The Theatres. last Men of the Olden Time" will be played, for the last time, at Arch-street Theatre, this even ing. It has been wonderfully stioassaltd, and play . lug it must have been a sort of coining of Money by Wheatley .f& Clarke. "Dot," which wu even more successful, will also be played tonight. On Monday evening Mrs. John Wood makes her ap pearance at thy theatre, and it Is her tint ap pastime in this city, we believe. The play, which is mulaal and dramatio, is entitled " Daughter's, Vow : or, Love's Disguises," and has been a long time in r Preparation. Mrs. John is one of the neatest,. sharpest, brightest, cleverest, and most agreeable, of all twit* actreaSes, and has won pope. Isrity from Canada to California. Mr. and Mrs. Williams, at Walnut-street Thea. draw such houses that, fifteen minutes after .the doors are opened, even every standing place is occupied.

The tandem, ' on the pert of some persons, to censure publle amusements; it as absurd as It is erroneous and aonselentlouk• That people, after the hard occupation of thehont. of daily, bustneni, should relax the bow by going to the theatre, to a oonoort, to a tutors, or the opera, is conaidered, by some, as extremely imptOper, and alto a waste of time and money. It was not meant by the Omniscient that such relaxation should be avoided. Even in a physical point of view, the total oesm. tion from all labor upon one day out of seven in a great blotting to mankind. It was meant that the sabbsth should be a day of rest, though not of amusement; but oftational participation in inno cent entertainment. in public, admission to which is comparatively a mere trine, certainly is not prohibited by any higher law within our knew ledge. The'number of persons to whom public amuse ments give subsistence, directly and indirectly, is very great. At Arch-street Theatre, for example, salaries or wages are regularly paid to over one hundred persons every week, and we believe that the employies of Walnut-street are equally mt. morons, On the average, three other persons are supported by these two hundred at the two thee tree. A great deal of money Is spent on behalf of the support of, these 800 people. Ac a general rule, by the way, theatrical people are bettor paid than almost, any other canna. We do not allude to such salaries as $lOO a night, lately received by Agree Robertson in New York, but to persons of less pre tensions. Persons of ordinary ability, who would be worth from seven to ten dollars a week, for ten hours' work a day in any ordinary business, re. oeive eateries, as theatrical people, more than dodble this amount, with very little to do. Oddly enough, an actress of ability and standing usually is worse paid than a male performer of the same grade, though_ the expenses of a I good theatrical wardrobe for a lady are greater than for a male performer. The old substitutes of cotton velvet and cheap gannets aro out of date. The drones of a respectable actress at a good theatre demand real velvet and &Anal moire antique and other best materials. The money re• calved at our two leading theatres, during the present popularity:of the drama—by Mr. Wheatley's exoellent company at the Arch, and Mrs. Garret• son's fortunate hit with Barney Williams and his wife at the Walnut—probably may average $5OO a night at each house, or $6,000 per week at the two. All of this money is distributed, in salaries, wages, and other expenditures, soithsn t he city. It really is an ,expenditure which, but for the theatres, would not be made at all. Conoert•givers from other Oases, and Italian apera•singers and ballet. dancers, are paid considerably more, in proportion, than relident theatrical people, and the misfortune is that they do not spend their receipts in this city. They disburse little more than the amount of their hotel•billa, and take the balanoo away with them, out of the oily, to be finally spent in Europe— which, in feat, is an abstraotion of so. much capi tal—first out of Philadelphia, and pvontually out of the Gaited ,States. Considering the number of persons whom they employ, and the great amount of mope, which, through these employiea of various *Ades, they put into active circulation, the respective and re epeotable managements of the Walnutatreet and Arch-etreet Theatres have every right to be looked upon as public benefactors, and to be encouraged end supported as mob. Close the two theatres, and the bread would be taken out of the mouths of about eight hundred persons, Letter from "Occasional." Correepondonoe of The Piess.l WABMNOTON, Doc. 2, 1859 As I predicted in one of my late letters, the exe cution of John Brown has been consummated, not only without the slightest attempt .at a rescue, but in the midst of an exclusivo Virginia population. Not a Northern reporter wail permitted to obtain access to the prisoner, and a number were refused admission into the borders of the "Old Dominion." Governor Wise has accomplished nothing by his ostentatious preparations except to cover his State with ridicule. It is rumored that immediately at ter the organisation of the House ono of the Virgi nia delegation will ;Ise in his place and introduce s bill making an appropriation to defray all the expanses incurred, as well in the suppression of the attack at Harper's Ferry as in the subsequent pro oeedings--the money, of course, to come out of the National Treasury. Whether Judge Black has Suggested this movement, or whether It comes from the President, in his anxiety to address himself to the existing excitement in the South, in order to promote his nomination by the Charleston Con vention, I am not able to say ; but I have no doubt that conk, such proposition will be made and In slated upon. Air. John Young Brow - a, the Democratic member of Congress from the Elizabethtown (Ky.) district, arrived in town last evening, in company with Col. Stevenson, of the Maysville district, and, I under stand, will not present himself, owing to the feet that the has not attained the constitutional age of twenty-five years. He will reach that age in June next, when he will 'qualify himself by taking the alma oath. Daring his canvass, ha took ocoasion, whenever he addressed the people, to state that he would not be able to take his seat, if elected, until June, but they were so much attached to him on account of his extraordinary ability, and his irre sistible oratory on the stump, that they elected him notwithstanding his protest. Those who know this young gentleman speak of him in the warmest terms. His oratorical powers are of the highest order, and from his settled character, and the abil ity with which be discusses political questions, great hopes are entertained of him. (The Administration will not be able to control the Democratic canons in the Douse as readily as tt expected to do a few weeks ago. Many of the Southern men now in Washington will resist in that caucus the nomination of any extreme man for Speaker, and the assertion of any offensive platform. We shall now see whether Mr. Buchan. an is to be endorsed by the representatives of the Democratic sentiment of this country. That there are many of the Administration leaders anxious to obtain victims, and to be revenged upon the inde pendent men who have opposed its treacheries, I have no doubt, but the power of the Federal dy nasty,dyb3g out as it is, will not be able, I pre dict, so to control the preliminary meeting of the Democratic members as to procure in that meeting a vindication of its policy. Judge Douglas seem to he carrying Ohio with a rush, for delegates to the National Convention. The °Moe-holders of Mr. Buohenan are crushed out in nearly every county. They are extinguished and trampled under foot in their precincts, wards, and townships. Even the strongest of them are not able to make a demonstration against the existing sentiment of the party in that State.. Precisely the same feeling exists in Pennsylvania. Your masses are as decidedly opposed to this Adminis tration and to its war upon the courageous men who have resisted it from the beginning, ae the peo ple of Ohio; but your next State Convention will be oontrolled, unless immediate preparations are made to prevent it, by the offiee-holders, who are determined to carry out the instruction of Mr. Bu ohanan, and to break down every man who does not sing hosannas to him. I understand that the Bit of delegates to the Charleston Con vention from Pennsylvania is being made out by Mr. Buchanan himself. Every name is discussed in Cabinet eounoils, and nobody will be permitted to represent Pennsylvania in that body, unless he agrees to everything Mr. Be. chanan desires. To this end every suspected dele gate in the State Convention is to be exoluded from the primary organization of that body, by the process of contesting his seat. It is stated here, that even Mr. Vans, and Mr. Johnson, and others chosen from Philadelphia, are to bo shut oat in this way. If mkt a thing were attempted in any other State, it would giro rise to a violent ,revolution. Democrats would bo present at the mooting of the Convention to protest—first, by words, and afterwards with blows, against this tyranny; bet the President it so sure that he has captured the organisation-in your State, that he will resort to the most high-handed measures on the occasion referred to. - A few of the leaders of the People's party in your State, in discussing the deliberations of the caucus held- by their members of Congress elect, on Wednesday evening, at the St. Lawrence Hotel, in your city, refuse to admit the fact that the elec• rims of most of their Congressional delegation is due to the votes of anti•Lecompton Democrats. For the information of those who imagine that they head a party which is an organized and Invincible unit, I proceed to show, by the actual vete polled in 1858 and 1858, that antl-Looompton Democrats sleeted, not only ten of the twenty members elect of the People's party, but also elected the Hon. John M. Read to the Supreme Court, and Kelm and Cochran to their offices : In the Third distriet, in 1856, the vote was: Landy over Milward 1,180; in 1858, Verroe, people's, over Landy 1,143. In the Fourth dietrlot, In 1856, Phillips over Foust 2,719; in 1858, Milward over Phillips 8,298, with Broom, "Straight" Ameriesn, polling 263 votes. In the Fifth district in '66, Owen Jones bad over Mu!veiny 1,713, in '6B, Col. Wind (People's) over Jones 2,492. The aggregate vote for the Demoeratio dates is 1858 in these three district* was 28,888, and for the American oandidatea, was 21,274 Demooratio majority 5,812. In 1858, the aggregate vote for the candidates of the People's party-- Mears. Verree, Inward, and Wood—was 28,627; and for the Administration candidates, 19,494; majority for the People's party, 7,133—a change In two years of 11,745 in these three distriota, or, to express it *ors truly, over 6,000 anti•Lecomp ton Democrats rebuked the Administration for its despttio course by voting for and electing Messrs. Verret), Milward, and Wood. In the 'Seventh district, in '56, Chapman, Demo. , mat, bad 10,321; Bradshaw, Opposition, 8,789; majority for Chapman, 1,532. In '5B, the gallant Chapman, who had been,as true as steel, declined to inn agate; and led% the field open for Longneolter, People's eindtdite, who polled 8,924; Roberta, Ad iellid4t2lthaft.Difiet4262, 8,0111; utijority for Long. neelF4l',24.op . gersthe 'candidate of the People's WV bohlnd the, ob) of te4, 485 T ow, but on 114 Adtalnistrillon. eisitUdtte's tote fell short 2,2450 f Chapman's rote. Th.drenany antildromp• ,Dtmocratt refusing to vote for the Mminto THE PRESS,--PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1859. Oration rand:date, Longneoker was elected. In the Eleventh district, Diwart, Democrat, beat Campbell In '5B by 2,541 Majority; in '5B Camp bell, People's, beat DoWart by 2,768 majority— showing a difference of 6,3Q7; Cake, anti-Leoomp ton Democrat, ran In this "district, and, by polling 3,614 votes, gave the election to Campbell. In the Twelfth district, in , '56, Montgomery, Democrat, had 10,442; Smith, Opposition, 7,857; majority for Montgomery 2,785. In '59 Scranton, People's candidate, had 10,023 ; Moßeynolds, Administration Democrat, 8,188; majority for Scranton 3,837—a difference in two years of 6,622 votes—showing 3,311 anti-Leeompton Democrats by voting for Scranton eluted him "with a rush." In the Fifoenth Allison White, Democrat, had in '569,980 votes ; Irwin, Opposition, 9,450 votes; ma jority for White, 530 ; in '5B Hale, People's, had 9,238 votes, White 7,349 ; Hale's majority over White 1,889 ; a difference in two years of 2,419 I:. 6., 1200 anti-tecompton Democrats by voting for Hale elected him. In the Sixteenth Ahl, in '56 polled 11,191 votes, Todd 9,870 ; majority for Ahl 1,521. In '5B Junkin, Poople'e, polled 8,646 ; Fisher, Ad. ministration Democrat, 8,600 ; majority for Junkin 46, effected by about 750 anti•Looompton Demo orals. In the Seventeenth district, Reilly, Democrat, had in 1850, 10,224 votes; Pomeroy, Opposition, 9,715 ; majority for Reilly, 599. In 1858, McPher son, People's, had 9,348 votes; Reilly, Locompton Democrat, 9,081 ; majority for McPherson, 267 another signal proof of the power of the anti-1,o• compton Democracy. In the Twenty.fonrth district, Gillis, Democrat, in '56, had 9,785 votes; Myers, 9,114 ; majority for Gilles, 676. In 1858, Hail, People's, polled 8,905 votes; Gillis, Administration Democrat, 8,111 ; majority for Hall, 794—a difference of 1,485, effected by some 700 antt•Lecompton Democratic votes. Thus a fair comparison of 1866 and '5B shows that ten of the members elect of the People's party, viz: Messrs. Verree, Milward, Woad, Loagnecker, Campbell, Scranton, Hale, Junkin, McPherson, and Hall, owe their election to the support of anti- Lecompton Demoorats. Now, a brief reference to the First, Second, Sixth, and Eighth districts. In the First Florence polled in 1856, 9,495 votes ; Knight. Opp., 7,275 ; total vote, 16,770 ; majority for Florence, 2,220. In 1859, Florence polled 6,823; Ryan, People's, 6,492; Nebinger, 2,442; total vote, 15,787; com bined vote of People's and anti-Lecoropton parties over the Administration candidate, 2,111. In the Second district, in 1858, Marshall, Democrat, polled 6,018.; in 1858, Martin, Democrat, polled 4,030 votes ; falling off in Democratic vote, 1,988. In 1856, Morris, American, polled 6,411; in 1858, 6,653 votes; decrease, 758—Morris increasing his majority 1,230 over his majority in 1856. In the Sixth, Riekman's vote in 1856 was 8,024; Bowen's, 7,851; majority for Rickman, 173. In 1858 Dickman polled 6,786 ; Broomall, American, 4,676; Manly, Administration Democrat, 5,185; Hickman over Manly, 1,601; Hickman and Broomall over the Administration, 6,277 ! In the Eighth, Glancy Jones, in' 1856, had 9,951; Yoder, 3,947; majority for Jones, 6,004. In 1858 Schwartz polled 7,321; the mime Jones but 7,302; majority for Schwartz, 19—a difference of 6,025 votes. To whom belongs that thunder? In 185 d, the number of Opposition Congressmen elected was 10, Democratic 15. In 1858, the num ber of Administration candidates elected was but two! The aggregate Tote in•the Twenty-Eve Congres sional di striots was, for People's and anti•Lecomp ton candidates 219,010 For Administration Democrats 146,038 Majority against the Administration 73,572 How much of this is due to the anti-Looompton Democracy ? Buchanan's majority at•er all, in Pennsylvania, was 607 Judge Read's majority, to 1858,.waa Let ne see from whence comes this majority. In Philadelphia, Buchanan had, over all, 6,145 ma jority; Reed, in 1858, over Porter, 6,528—a dif. Terence of only 12,873, made chiefly by some 8,000 anti-Lecompton Democrats. In glorious John Hickman's district, Buchanan was in a minority of 1,024 votes ; Judge Read had a majority of 3,843 a differonco of 4,867! In Berke, Buohanan had a majority of 6,649; Judge Read's minority was but 4,630. In distriots like these referred to, anti-Lo oompton Demoorate, not satisfied with rebuking the recreant Representative: who voted for Le. compton, in order to more effectually signalize their determined opposition to despotism and its apologiste, voted for Judge Read. More than 16,000 of them did this, and elected that eminent Jurist to the Soprani° Bench. The majority of 18,000 for Kelm and Cochran the nominees of the People's natty this year, Is made up in the same way, What is true of Penn• sylvania is also true of meet of the other States North and Northwest. It it rather vexations to hoer it said Oat " anti- Issomptordem Is played out "—" Don't mind that set, they don't count "--fl We have got all we went out of them, let them slide "--‘, We must organise the House without them The South Ameri cans are the men we must court," 40., an. Do those who talk this way not know that the anti- Leoompton Democrats hold the halanee of power in Pennsylvania and eleewhere, and that without their aid the Piople's party would have been de feated in '5B and '59 ? OgCASIONAL. 1 10114 Horace Greeley at Concert Ha Last Eveniig. The announcement that the distinguished editor of the New York Tribune would deliver a lecture at Concert Hall, last evening, before the Harrison Literary Institute, upon the subject of "California and the Mormons," attracted, highly respectable, though not overly large audience, at the appointed hour, which, by the way, we may state, was coven and a Aalf o'clock, whereas the lecture was not commenced until nearly eight, when the lecturer appeared upon the platform, accompanied by a number of young gentlemen, members of the In stitute. Mr. Greeley approached the stand, his fair Saxon face looking the type of good nature and a clear conscience, and his usually neat per sonal appearance bearing alight marks of the rug gedness which, from observation, we find dam- Whale of those recently returned from a trip aoress the Plains. In opening Me leoture, he said that while it was true that he expected to speak of California and Utah, be expected to dwell more upon some of the by-ways of his recent journey to tho Peolao. The Mississippi was the king of rivers. The Ama zon and the Laplatte might carry nearly as great a volume of water; the Danube and the might be more full of historic associations, yet the country through which it flowed—the geographical heart of North America—more than counterba lanced all those. Another century would witness thlavalley with a population of one hundred mil lions. The eastern tributaries of this great river were next referred to, the Ohio, and the region through which it flowed, being chiefly referred to in this connection. The wide plains which slope regularly from the bluffs of the Missouri up to the Rocky Mountains were next alluded to with respect to their geologi cal formation, which, as tho terms employed admit of no condensation, we are obliged mainly to omit. Much of this part of the lecture was as philosophi cally agricultural as Mr. Hale's effort on the pre vious evening was agrarian. The effects of floods and prairies on the plains wore weighed and dis posed of, doubtless with a masterly hand, if not en tirely Intelligible to some of hie auditors. The impression made upon the mind In crossing the plains was ono of loneliness ; there was a scarcity of rivers, an absence of trees, and travel lers wore often compelled to make their way hur riedly from one river to the other to escape famish log. It would bo rather Hibernian, ho said, to say that in many places on the plains the only signs of life were dead oxen, and yet in many parts the dooomposing carcasses of these animals wars the oidy indications that life had ever been within reach. The rapid extermination of the buffalo was ad retied to, and regretted by the speaker, much of which was said to be caused by no higher motives than the mere appetite for carnage. Already this noble animal wee compressed to one•tenth its former dimensions, and soon the race must become extinct. • The roads over the plains had two marked fee lures—their parallel direotlons and absence of homes along their line. There were no oross•roads. Every man that crossed the plains was supposed to carry a blanket for hie bed, and bread, coffee, and pork for his meals. If the traveller became wet through and chilled by the rain over night, it was all the easier for him to rise early in the morning. For days the travel was westward, still westward, with nothing to break the monotony. Tho works of God were around, but the works of man, save the train beneath, were absent. The prairie dog and hawk, and other indigenous animals, were also discussed in passing, showing that the lecturer was no less addieted to pressing his inquiry into the undiscovered of animated na ture than into the geological bowels of th a regions ho had visited. The weekly mail was one of the pleasant and somewhat redeeming features of tho plains. But the mall was not the only apparition which greeted the traveller to remind him of civilization. The long trains of wagons which, at intervals, made their way slowly along to various destinations, were, to the traveller, objects of grateful interest. Speaking of the Rooky Mountains, it was said their rooky front was, for the most part, thinly covered with yellow pines. They were also better watered than the plains. Considering their ave rage length; breadth, and elevation, they were the least formidable of any considerable range of mountains on the earth. Between the crests of the Rooky Mountains and those of the Sierra Nevada laid a plain of a thou. sand miles in width. He supposed that there was nowhere on earth so large a mountainous region that was so poorly wooded. Its soil was loss de• !Idea The valley of the Colorado 000upled eon• tamable or the lecturer's attention. He thought that this valley afforded the linen opportunities for imooessful starvation of any other of the same ex tent in the world. OtoltraPhiota aa well as polltleal Utah was at length reached. The idea that the topography of thliTorrltor7 was in the form of a bowl was not strictly true, although it was surrounded by moun tains, The saline oharaoter of Its waters was 'c ounted for. In oomparing Utah with Paladins, he said that he doubted'it the former would ever produce the cereals which were cultivated in the latter. Utah's devouring canker was her nicer of poly gamyv She was Making her reputation upon sen• coal indulgence. He did not wish to enveigh against their religion as such, nor the religion of any other people, as he did not believe that the Almighty Father would frown upon, even the mit guided efforts of those who honestly strive to doh!. wilt. With regard to their religious character, they were umieunily free from spiritual pride, or knavish, pharisaical pretensions. He had rarely found a religious community so much addicted to prayer in private, and so little inclined to making long prayers on the corners of the streets. :Lie be lieved they were honest in their professions, no matter how taunts they may be deluded. He had boon treated with great personal kindness by all the Mormons he met. Yet, bad he been suspected of entertaining hostile intentions toward the prosper ity of their church, he doubted not that a hundred men would have been ready at a moment's notice tn put a bullet through his brain, and thra if he had been suspooted for anything of the kind his life could not have been insured by any company at ninety per cent. premium Their great sin of polygamy was, of course, not to be palliated, and it occasioned much discord mow themsolvea. The ease of ono family was related, where a man had boon the husband of two wives, one of whom was the daughter of the other. So far as hie observation bad gone, ho believed that they lived with as much cordiality as each a throe-cornered oonoorn would admit. The picture of Mormon life was here humorously drawn, and created much laughter. Imagine, said the speak er, a family in which there are a dozen dirty chil dren In a little hut, with no less than four mothers, all of wham were the wives of ono husband, and of course each aspiring, to the uppermost place in his estimation. This was described as a boll upon earth, and as calculated, if anything was, to gecko a man welcome the eound of Gabriel's trumpet. All he believed that was needed to ours this groat blot, In years to come, was free speech and en unfettered press, though ho trusted that with the dark stain of polygamy some other shameless evils now in existence might also disappear. (Ap plause.] Carson Valley was at length reached in this westward tour, and the speaker said that he meant, by means of the iron horse, to look once more upon the emerald glades of this valley before he died. Coming to the Golden State, the speaker said that the naked fact that California, though but ton years old, produced enough from her soil to feed her six hundred thousand Inhabitants, was suffi cient in itself to prove her soil ono of the most fertile in the world. It was a land sunny and lovely as Italy, and destined in the future to hold twenty or thirty millions of our rode. Yes, Cali• fornia was by nature of rich and surpassing boanty, and in this was yet to be improved, and he hoped her moral and intellectual greatness would not prove to be less remarkable. He could not loiter to notice the grand natural features of the country at that late hour ; suffice it to say that west of the Rooky Mountains the stars and stripes wave over a country broader than That boasted by Charlemagne or Napoleon. Ills oonclusidn was a glowing picture, full o hope and promise, of the futuro of our prospective Pacific States, all of which ho hoped, for the honor of his race, would be preserved from the dark stain of human slavery. The lecture occupied nearly an hour and a half in its delivery, and was frequently applauded by the audience: THE LATEST NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. .. 20,987 THE EXECUTION OF BROWN REPORTERS EXCLUDED BY GOV.

Mrs. Drown wen emceed *war froth Harper's Ferry at 3 o'clock In the afternoon, and the entire military force was brought out to make a demonstration. She wee received with full mill- tary honors, but her eonipanlons wore net allowed to accompany her from Harper's Ferry. After remeinlnlng four hours with her husband, Mrs. Brown was escorted back to Harper's Ferry, at 9 o'clock last night, where she will await the reception of her husband's body. No one will be allowed to be rear enough to the place of execution to boar any remarks that may be made by Brown. Happen's Feanr, Pee. 2.--John Drown was hung at quarter past eleven o'clock, this morning The military assembled at 9 o'clock, and were posted on the field leading to the place of execu tion, and also at various points, ae laid down in the general orders. Everything; was conducted under the etrietert military discipline, as if the town was in a state of siege. Mounted scouts were stationed In the wood's to the left of the scaffold, and picket ra, erds were stk. tioned out towards the Shenandoah mountains, in the rear. The military on the field formed two hollow squares, Within the inner one was the seaffild, and between the inner and outer lines citizens were admitted—no one being allowed outside of the lines except the mounted guards. At eleven o'clock the prisoner was brought out of the jail, accompanied by Sheriff Campbell and assistants, and Captain Avis, the . jailor. A smell wagon, containing n white-pine coffin, was driven up, on which they took a sant.. Six companies of infantry, a rifle company, a company of horse, and the general and his staff, (numbering twenty-five officers.) headed the pro. cession, and marched towards the place of excel'. lion. Brown was accompanied bvmo minister, and de sired no religious coremonlia either in the jail or on the scaffold. He looked calmly around on the people, and was fully possessed during the trying occasion. Ile mounted the scaffold with a firm stop. Ilia aline were pinioned by the sheriff. • Ile hid farewell to Captain Avis end Sheriff Campbell. At a quarter past eleven o'clock the d.iop of the scaffold wee pulled, and after - a few Slight strug gles John Brown yielded up his spirit. The body wail' placed in a coffin, and is now on its way to Harper's Ferry, to be delivered to the wife. under a strong' military escort. THE INTERVIEW BETWEEN BROWN AND eiltatiLSTOWN, Dee. 2.—The interview between Brown - UM hie wife lasted from 4 o'oloek In the afternoon until near 8 o'clock in the evening, when General Taliaferro Informed them that the period allowed them had elapsed, and that Mrs. riown must prepare for her departure to Harper's Ferry. The carriage was again brought to the door,the military took posseesion of the square, and, with an escort of twenty mounted men, the cortege moved off, Captain Moore, of the Montgomery Guards, accompanying her The interview was, I learn, not a very affecting one, being rather of a praetionl character, with regard to the future of herself and children, and the arrangement and settlement la basins]] affairs. They seemed considerably affected when they first met, and Mrs. Brown wee for a few moments quite overcome, but be was firm as a rock and she soon recovered her eomposuro. There was an impression that the prisoner might possi bly be furnished with a weapon or with atryohnine by the wife, and before the interview her paean was searchedd by the wife of the jailor and a etrict watch kept over them during the time they were together. At the tined of the operation, they eeemed Lobe fully solf-poesseged, and the parting, apeolally on his part, exhibited a composure. either feigned or real, that was truly surprising. Mrs. Brown, I learn rather repelled all attempt, on his pert, to exPrets sympathy with her under horst:Motions She resdet. ed the idea that Capt. Brown had done anything to deserve death, or to litigant his name with dishonor by the ignominous punishment that wee about to be inflicted upon him no regarded him ace mar tyr in a righteous cause, and was proud to be the wife of such a man ; that the gallows had no ter. rore to her or to hint She stated that be lied not seen him since last Juno, about six months ago, and that they had been separated, except for o few days. for nearly two yenta. They had, however, commended, and eho always felt a deep interest in the muse in which he wee engaged. Tho character of the interview between them may be judged to some extent from this conversa tion with Captain Moore previous to the interview. I learn from Captain Avis, the jailor, that the is terview between the prisoner and his wife was characteristic) of the man, and the directions given for the management and distribution of property mounted all the minor details of a lest will and testament. General Tallatorro was also present. and Captain Brown urged that his wife be allowed to remain /with him all night. To this the General refused assent, only allowing them four hours. On first meeting, they kissed and affectionately embraced each other ; and Mrs. Brown shed a few tears, but immediately checked her feelings. They stood embraced, the wife nabbing, and the husband apparently unable to speak, for nearly five min utes. The prisoner only gave way for a moment. and was soon oahn and collected. and remained firm throughout the remainder of the interview. At the close they shook hands, but did not cm. brace; and, as they parted, he said, God bless you and the children." Dire Brown replied, Cod have mercy on you," and oontinued calm until she was about leaving the room, when she remained In tears for a few moments, and then prepared to de part. The interview took place In the parlor of Captain Avis, and the prisoner was free from mammies' of any kind. They sat side by side on the lore, and after discussing family matters, proceeded to busi ness. He stated that ho desired his property to pass entirely into her poetise/don, and appeared to place full confidence in her ability to manage it properly for the benefit of his younger obildren. He requested her to remain at North Blba, in New York, on a farm where she now resides, which belongs to bar. Be was desiresa that his younger obildren should be eat:seated; and if she could not obtain facilities for education tabome,to have them sent to a boardingouleol. He then gave direo dons, and dictated to Sheriff Campbell hie will, whloh directed that all hie property should go to his wife, with the exception of a few presents and bequests which he ' made. To one of his sons he gave • double spy.gless ; to another one a watch; to another he gave di rections that be ahould take a tomb or remanent 0" mark. the Imo of his father, at North Elba, and have engraved on it his name, age, and the manner of hie death, together the came for which he had suffered death, which he dlreets shall remain at Earth Elba at long as his family resides there. To each of his children; he be queathed the sum of gay dollars, and to each of hie daughters a Bible, to oast five dollaro each, to he - purchased out of money oemirg to him from hie father's estate. Also a Bible, to cost three dollar!, to be presented to each of his grand children, and that fifty dollars each be paid to throe individuals whom ho named, if they can be found, if not, to their legal representatives. During the course of the conversation, Mrs. Brown asked him if he had heard that Gerrit Smith bad become insane, and had been sent to the asylum, at Utica. Ile replied that be had read of it in the papers, and was sorry to hear it, but immediately ()hanged the subject. The death of his two eons was spoken of, and Mrs. Brown remarked that she had made some effort, whilst at Harper's Ferry for the recovery of their romaine, to which object, she said, Col. Barbour had kindly consented to give hie assist ance. Capt. Brown remarked that he would also like the remains of the two Thompson!) removed, if they could !be found, but suggested that it would be beat to take his body, with the bodies of his four sons, and get a pile of pine logs and burn them all together; that it would be much better, and lees expensive, to thus gather up all their ashes toge ther and take them to their final resting.plare Sheriff Campbell told him that this would not be permitted within the State, and Mrs Brown I objected to the proposition altogether. The pri soner said that he contemplated hie death with composure and calmness. It would undoubt . edly bo pleasant to live longer, but as it was the will of God he should close his career be was content. It was doubtless beet that he should be time legally murdered for the good of ▪ the cause, end he was prepared to submit to his ▪ will without a murmur. lIIS WIFE Mrs. Brown becoming depressed at theso re marks, ho badnher cheer up and told her hie holy wouldimon be with her, and that they would be united again in heaven. With regard to his °locution, ho said ho desired no religious ceremonies either in tbo jail or on the scaffold, from ministers who consent or approve of the enslavemont of their fellow•oreaturee ; that ho would prefer to ho accompanied on the scaffold by a dozen slavo children aM agood old olevo mother, with their blessings In hie emit then all the elo gnomio of the wholo clergy of the Commonwealth onnbinod.

The prisoner was brought out of lad at 11 o'clock. Before leaving, he bade adieu to all his fellow-prisoners and wee very affectionate to all, except Cook. Ile charged Cook with having deceived and misled him in relation to the support he wee to receive from the slaves.
