FROM THE PEOPLE. | Letter from Kansas. The Vole on the Constantion—Kcgmes leaving Missouri —Arrival and licception of Governor Medary—"Old John Brown”—Griat Fire in Leavenworth —Bepublican State dominations —Kickapoo Indians, &c., etc. Atchison, Kansas, Oct. 22,1859. Editor of The Agitator : As soon as any thing worth noting turns up in the renowned “Bleeding Kansas” which will be of any in terest to the numerous readers of the Agitator , I Lake it for granted that you will not be dis pleased to hear from me, which causes me so soon to write you. We have now incomplete returns from nearly every county in Kansas, which go far to show that the new Free-State Constitution is being warmly received by the enlightened people of this Territory. In spite of the efforts of the Pro-Slavery Democracy, Kansas will become a Free State, and that at no distant day. Our neighboring State of Missouri will soon follow and rank with the first States in the Union. If the question was taken to-day on : the subject whether she would be a Free or | Slave State, a majority would be 1 in favor of I abolishing that human curse. Not many years J will elapse before the question will be decided by "a direct vote of the people, and they all know it. Every steamboat, and almost every train of cars that now goes to St. Louis carries large cargoes of negroes on their way to the South. The hist few days I have noticed sev eral handbills sticking up on the corners of streets in this city, which read about as follows: ‘‘Kunaway Negroes,” “SI,OOO Reward,” <tc. Col. Abell has recently removed his 'nine nig gers to Weston, Mo., where he will shortly ro more himself in consequence of the adoption of “that abolition instrument,” the Wyandott Constitution. Gov. Medary arrived here this morning by Boat from St. Joseph, on his way to LecomptoU, and has spent a day in our city, whore he was warmly received by our citizens. The Atchi son Brass Band gave him a serenade at the Massaaoit House this evening, where several hundred persons had congregated, when he came out and made an elegant and brilliant speech of an hour’s length, alluding to the past hjiatory and disturbed condition of the Terri tory, the beautiful and boundless prairies, tbe salubrious climate, excellent soil, and the great extent of territory that lies between the Mis souri river and the Rocky Mountains. In all of Ins travels he had never seen so beautiful a country as Kansas, and he intended to settle down and spend the remainder of his life among us. Occupying the position that Kan sas does, he said, she is destined to be one of the first States in the Union, and as soon as the all-absorbing question is settled, emigration will pour in here by the hundreds and thou sands, railroads will be built from town to town and village to village, and not many years will elapse before we can breakfast in Kansas and take tea in the orange country. After paying a tribute to our young and beautiful city, the rapid strides she was making, and the many natural advantages she possesses over most all other Kansas towns, he retired, amid tremen dous shouts and cheers from the vast assem blage. At the conclusion of his speech the Band played him a couple of tunes and then marched off on “Hail Columbia” and “Yankee Doodle.” News has reached Kansas that ‘‘old John Brown,” who has figured pretty conspicuously in the affairs and troubles of Kansas, has been getting into pretty close quarters at Harper’s Ferry. Although his act is a bold one, yet it is denounced by nearly every Republican in this Territory. No one can believe but that the old chap was insane, for it is perfectly absurd to think that any man in his right mind would undertake such a foolish move. Many believe that the dispatch is a hoax. Leavenworth City was visited by a destruct ive fire on Thursday morning last, and the en tire heart of the city is now in ruins. Property to the amount of i 5120,000 was destroyed. All of Major's & Russell’s outfitting houses were consumed, as also were many of the finest busi , ness houses in the city. It will be a long time before it is rebuilt, for the place is being aban doned. I understand from reliable authority, that there are over three hundred vacant dwel lings in that place, a fact which docs not speak very encouragingly for it. The State Convention assembled at Topeka on the 12th Inst., and nominated Judge M. F. Conway for Congress, Charles Robinson for Governor, and Dr. J. P. Root for Lieut. Gov ernor. About 1,000 Republicans attended, and the meeting passed off harmoniously. The can didates are all tried and true men, and highly qualified to fill the important posts to which they have been nominated. The Kickapoo Indians have just received their annuity from W. P. Rodger, their Agent, and this place is now swarmed with “big In jins,” “little Injins," squaws and papooses.— The “old folks” still appear in Indian costume, but “Young America” is adopting the manners and customs of the Whites. Their pockets are lined with gold and silver, and our merchants are relieving them of their loose change pretty • fast. There is one good trait, among the Kick apoos—they are seldom found under the influ ence of liquor—a fact highly creditable to Mr. Rodger, the Agent. The old ones retain their Indian color, hut the rising generation is bleach ing very fast. “Alas, for the poor Indian 1” The Democratic State Convention meets at Lawrence next Tuesday, the 25th, but it is im possible to tell what kind of a ticket they will hatch out.

Sujj’t, THE AGITATOR. HUGH YODNQ, Editor & Proprietor. WELLSBOROUGH, PA. Tlmisday morning, Nov., 10, '59. Trial and Sentence of Brown. For the past two weeks the daily newspapers have been filled with the court proceedings in the ease of “Old Brown” and the other unfor tunate men who rushed with him into the jaws of death in the late invasion of the State of I irginia. Wo propose in this article to give a synopsis of the leading facts in the trial, as want of space debars us from publishing the proceedings entire. On the : 2oth of October the preliminary ex amination commenced at Charlestown, the scat of justice of Jefferson county, Va. Eight mag istrates were on tho bench, and by their direc tion the Sheriff brought the prisoners into Court under a guard of eighty armed men—five times the number of Brown’s invading force—who were placed as a guard around tho court house in order to prevent his escape should he suc ceed in breaking the iron manacles which bound him to poppie, the other prisoner. Brown seemed weak and haggard, with his eyes swelled from the effects of the wounds on his head. Sheriff Campbell read the commitment of the prisoners. Mr. Ilarding, State’s Attorney, asked that Court might assign counsel for pris oners, if they had none. The Court inquired if the prisoners had counsel, when Brown address ed the Court as follows; Virginians 1 I did not ask for any quarter at the time I was taken. L did not ask to have my life spared. The Governor of the State of Virginia tendered me his assurance thatT should have a fair trial, and under no circumstances whatever will Ibe able to attend to a trial. If you seek my blood you can have it at any mo ment without the mockery of a trial. I have had no counsel. I have not been able to advise with one. I know nothing about the feelings of my fellow prisoners and I am utterly unable to attend in any way to my own defence. My memory don’t serve me. My health is insufficient, although improving. There are mitigating circumstances, if a fair trial is to be allowed us, that I would urge in our favor; hut if we are to bo forced with a mere form of a trial, to execution, you may spare yourselves that trouble. I am ready for my fate. Ido not ask a trial. I beg for no mockery of a trial, no insult, nothing but that which conscience gives or cowardice would drive you to practice. I ask not to be excused from the mockery of a trial. Ido not know what the design of this examination is; I do not know what is to be the benefit of it to the Commonwealth ; I have now little to ask, other than that I be not fool ishly insulted, as cowardly barbarians insult those who fall into their power. At the conclusion of this speech the Court assigned Messrs. Faulkner and Bottg as counsel for the prisoner, the former of whom declined, and the latter accepted the position. Mr. Botts was assisted by Mr. Green his partner. On the 26 of October examinations of witness es for the prosecution commenced. During the day Brown stated that ho had full confidence in the goodness of God; that he was confident that lie would rescue him from the perile that then surrounded him ; that he had before had rifles pointed at him, knives at his throat, and his life in as great peril as it then was hut that God had always been at bis side; and that as he know He was with him he feared nothing. On the 27th Brown was so unwell as to make it necessary for him to lie down in a bed which was brought into Court for that purpose. Sir. Botts read to the Court a dispatch received from responsible parties in Ofiio, saying that five of Brown’s immediate relatives were afflicted with insanity; that this mental disease was heredi trry in the family, and that these facta could be proved hy witnesses who would attend the trial if necessary. On reading the dispatch to Brown he affirmed the truth of the statement but re fused to take any advantage of this plea, as he believed himself to he sane. He desired to meet his fate as a man and not as a presumed maniac. On the 28th of October, a young man named Hoyt from Boston arrived at Charlestown as counsel for Brown, He took the necessary oath of admission to the bar of Virginia, and asked for time to examine the indictment, the Virginia Code and the testimony already taken. This was denied. The testimony for the prose cution closed that afternoon, and does not differ from the reports already published. Ten wit nesses for the prosecution were examined and the evidence for the defence immediately fol lowed. The object of this was to prove that Brown did not design the taking of life or any other act of cruelty except in self-defence. Two or three witnesses were examined and others did not answer to their names, the subpoena not having been served. Mr. Brown rose from his bed and addressed the Court stating that although Gov. Wise had promised him a fair trial, it was after all nothing but a mockery. He stated that his money ($200) had been taken from him and that he had therefore no means to employ any one to do errands for him or to hunt up testimony ; that the officers had refused to do their duty in serving the writs for his witnesses; that he had no confidence inAhe counsel assigned to him by the Court, and that he wanted a postponement of the Court for a few hours to give him time to get his witnesses. Mr. Hoyt also spoke asking for time which was refused. Messrs. Botts and Green, the Virginia counsel withdrew from the ease. For the Agitator. On the 29th of October, a short time was given for new counsel for the prisoner who had just arrived, to consult—to wit; Sami. Chilton, Esq,, of Washington, and Henry Griswold of Cleaveland, Ohio. Mr. Chilton made an address to the Court explanatory of his position. Ha was there at tho earnest solicitation of his friends, and being there, he desired to do his duty as counsel for the prisoner, hut tiffs he could not do without at least several hours for examining the case, the law, indictment, etc. Ho therefore asked for a deloy of a few hours. But tho Court re fused this. The trial roust go on, Tho exam- THE TIOGA COUNTY AGITATOR. ination of witnesses was then resumed, and concluded in the afternoon. Mr. Chilton,-fur the prisoner, rose and sub mitted a motion that the prosecution in this case be compelled to elect one of the counts in the indictment and abandon the others. The indictment consists of four counts and is en dorsed thus: an indictment for treason, advis ing and conspiring with slaves and others to rebel, and fur murder. The charge of murder is laid in two of the counts, the third and fourth. The charge of treason is in the first, and the second charge alleges a charge different from that which is endorsed on the back of the in dictment, and which is upon record. The sec ond count is under the following statute: “If a free person advise or conspire with a slave to rebel or make an insurrection, ho shall be pun ished with death, whether such a rebellion or insurrection be successful or not.” But the second count in the indictment is that these parties who are charged by the indictment con spired together, and, with other persons, to in duce certain slaves, the property of Alstadt and Washington, to make rebellion and insurrec tion. There is a broad distinction between advising and conspiring with slaves to rebel and adjfc ing and conspiring with others to induce slaves to rebel. Whet, or he was to avail himself of this irregularity by instructions from the court to the jury to disregard this second count en tirely, or whether it would be proper to wait until the conclusion of the trial, and then move an arrest of judgment, he left to his Honor to decide, lie proceeded to argue the motion that the prosecution be compelled to elect one count and abandon another, quoting Archibald’s Criminal pleading in support of his view. He further alluded to the hardships which rest up on the prisoner to meet various and direct char ges in the same trial. From the authority ho road it would bo seen that in case of treason different descriptions of treason could not be united in the same indict ment. High treason could not be associated with other treason. If an inferior grade of an offenoo of the same character could not be in cluded in separate counts, still less can an of fence of a different character. Treason in this country is high treason; treason against the State of Virginia is treason against her sover eignty. We have no other description of trea son, because treason can only be committed against sovereignty, whether that of the United States or of a sovereign State. Ho was replied to by Messrs Harding and Hunter. The Court decided that the trial must go on. Tho jury had been charged and sworn to try the prisoner on tho indictment as drawn. After the trial tho counsel mightjl more for an arrest of judgement. ‘| After considerable discussion by counsel Mr- Harding proceeded to address the jury for the prosecution, after which Court adjourned until Monday. On Monday the trial was resumed. Mr. Griswold and Chilton djoth addressed th^Jury qhly and at some length. They were followed by Mr. Hunter for the prosecution. The Jury brought in a verdict of “Guilty of treason , ad vising and conspiring with slaves to rebel and for murder in thefrst degree.” Brown sat up in his bed while the verdict was read, after which he lay down quietly, say ing nothing and making no demonstration of and kind. Mr. Chilton moved an arrest of judgement, both on account of errors iu the indictment and errors in the verdict. The objection was that the prisoner had been tried for an offence not appearing on the record of the Grand Jury. The verdict was- not on each count separately, but a general verdict on the whole indictment. The prisoner has also been found guilty of two counts for murder of the same person. It was manifest he could not be guilty of both. By agreement the argument of these points was postponed.’ Brown was then remanded to jail; and the trial of Coppie commenced. On the 2d of \ovomher Brown was brought into Court to receive his sentence. The Court gare its decision on the motion to arrest judgment, overruling the objections made. On the objection that treason cannot be committed against a State, except, hyp citizen, it ruled that wherever allegiance was due, treason may he committed. Most of the States have passed laws against treason. The objec tions as to the form of the verdict rendered, were also regarded as insufficient. The Court then asked Brown whether he had anything to say why sentence should not be pronounced, when Brown stood up, and in a clear and distinct voice said; “I have, may it please the Court, a few words to say. “In tho first place, I deny, everything but what I have all along admitted—tho design on my part to free tho slaves. I intended certainly to have made a clean filing of that matter, as I did last winter, when I went into Missouri and there took tho slaved without the snapping of a gun on either side, moved them through the country, and finally left them in Canada. X designed to have done the same thing again, on a larger scale, That was all I intended. I never did intend to commit murder or treason, or to destroy property, or to excite or incite the slaves to rebellion, and to make an insurrec tion. “I have another objection, and that is, it is unjust that I shduliTsuffer such a penalty. Had I interfered in the manner which I admit has been fairly proven (for I admire the truthful ness and candor of the greater portion of the witnesses who have testified in this case,) had I so interfered in behalf of the rich, the pow erful, the intelligent, the so-called great, or in behalf of their friends, either father, mother, brother, sister, wife or children, or any of that class, and suffered and sacrificed what I have in this interference, it would have been all right. Every man in this Court would have deemed it an not worthy of reward rather than punishment. This Court acknowledges, as I suppose, the validity of tho law of God. I see a book kissed here which I suppose to be the Bible, or at least the Now Testament. That teaches me that ‘all things whatsoever I would j that men should do to me,-I should do even so | to them.’ It tenches me further, to ‘remember I them that are in bonds as bound with them.’ J I endeavored to act up to that instruction. I j say I am yet too young to understand that God is any respecter of persons. I believe that to have interfered as I have done, as I have always freely admitted I have done, in behalf of His despised poor, was no wrong but right. Now, if it is deemed necessary that I should forfeit my life for the furtherance of the ends of jus tice, and mingle my blood further with the blood of my children, and with the blood of millions in this slave country whose rights are disre garded by wicked, cruel and unjust enactments, I admit, so let it be done. Let me say one word further. I feel entirely satisfied with the treatment I have received on my trial. Con sidering the circumstances it has been more generous than I expected, but I feel no con sciousness of guilt. I have stated from the first what was my intention and what was not. I never had any design against the life of any person, nor any disposition to commit treason, or excite the slaves to rebel or make any gen eral insurrection. I never encouraged any man to do so, but always discouraged any idea of that kind. Let me say also in regard to the statements made by some of those connected with me. 1 hear it has been stated by some of them, that I have induced them to join me, but the contrary is true. Ido not say this to in jure them, but as regretting their weakness. — Not one joined me hut of his t)_wn accord and the greater part at their own expense. A num ber of them I never saw and never had a word of conversation with, till the day they came to me ; and that was for tho purpose I have stated. Now I have done.” While Brown was speaking, perfect quiet prevailed. When life had finished, The Court proceeded to pronounce the sen tence. After a few preliminary remarks, in which ho said no reasonable doubt could exist as to tho prisoner’s guilt, he sentenced Jam to be hung in public on Eridag , the 2 d of December. —We have thus confined the limits of this long article to a plain statement of the leading facts of the trial. We shall have something to say in a future article, of the pro-slavery idea of Justice as set forth in the indecent haste ex hibited in this case. Grow in Buffalo, We are unable to announce this week the re sult of the election held in the State of New York last Tuesday. In all quarters of the State the canvas was going on warmly on both sides, and wo shall be nmch disappointed if the Re publicans do not roll up an old fashioned ma jority on the side of Freedom. The Fifth Av enue Committoojof Democratic aristocrats have issued a manifesto which outllerods Tam many in misrepresentation and palpable false hood. The late registry of votes in New York city shows a plurality of eighteen thousand more than was over yet polled in that city ot any election, leaving a wide margin for fraud and ballot-stuffing. To balance this tremen dous vote the Republicans in the central and Western portions of the State have been exceed ingly active in arousing the voters to their du ties and in getting out the vote. Some of the best political speakers of both parties in the nation have been at work for the past two weeks in all parts of the State. The Buffalo Express gives an account of a meeting held in that city on Wednesday evening, Nov. 2d, which in enthusiasm was equalled only by the contest of 18dG. The great speech of the evening was delivered by lion. G. A. Grow in Kremlin Hall to an audience of thousands ; while thousands of people could not get into the llall. Two separate meetings were formed on -the street and addressed by able speakers on the great questions of the day. j We give below the closing paragraph of the article in the Express, reviewing Mr. Grow’s speech of the preceding night: “The speech of Mr. Grow was a lengthy one, but held the interest of the audience so entirely to the close, that he was loudly urged to pro ceed when he sfioke of concluding. It was one of the most eloquent, stirring and convincing speeches that has ever been delivered before the Electors of Buffalo, and made a deep and lasting impression upon the minds of all who listened to it. lie was applauded from begin ning to end, and took his seat amid the most deafening demonstrations of the satisfaction and pleasure his address had given.” On Thursday Mr. Grow spoke at Addison ; on Friday at Binghamton, and on Saturday at Ithica. Wo see by the Susquehanna Repub lican that ho is to speak to his fellow citizens at Montrose, on the 21st inst. A Coon Winter Predicted. —About ten days ago a tremendous drove of gray squirrels, numbering hundreds of thousands, suddenly made their appearance on the trees and waters like a pall. Thousands of them were after wards found dead in the river and on the ground. They crossed the Mississippi at that point, and worked their way down the river, until on Wednesday they reached Cape Girar deau, crossing the river at that point in count less myriads. The citizens turned out en masse, and killed them by hundreds. Every tree and hush ip that vicinity swarmed with them until night, when they all disappeared, and have not been beard of since. Their rente was mar ked as by a devastating storm. Trees were girdled, and fields destroyed. Old French set tlers predict a very severe winter, as it was no ticed in 1834 and *52, that immense droves of squirrels suddenly made their appearance fol lowed by intensely severe weather.— Si. Louis Express. Clearfield' County, the home of “Beef Big ler,” constitutes a part of districts which send a Republican Senator and two Republican mem bers to the Legislature, this year! The people who made him all he is politically, only to be betrayed, have repudiated him and tho party of which ho is a member. The result must cause him to feel a little “weak in tho knees.” ■Alas! poor Bigler! Mr. Greeley reviews Senator Douglas’s patent magazine article on popular sovereignty, in a late number of the Tribune, and convicts the honorable Senator of a gross perversion of his tory in relation to his representations respect ing the early action of our government in legis lating for the territories. Douglas is no match for Greeley in a contest of this kind. Food for the Nation. —The Buffalo Express says: “The quantity of wheat, alone, which came into our city during the thirty-one days of October, amounts to the enormous sum of 4,967,025 bushels. This surpasses by_ very much any of our former receipts within the some period; and of course no other part of tho world can boast of anything to compare with such a deposit of the cereal at a single port in a single month. The total receipts con stitute an average of 105,450 bushels per day for thirty consecutive days.” A man in New York recently bought a.clock at auction for fifty cents. About a week ago be sold the clock to another man, who after ta king it home, discovered that a looking-glass in the back of the clock was broken. He took out the glass to have it replaced by a new one, when he discovered notes of the Bank of Eng land to the amount of ten thousand dollars. It is reported that tho heirs of‘the estate to which the clock belonged are going to commence suit for the recovery of the money. A few weeks since the good people of a quiet rural village near Carlise, Penn., were much astonished one Sunday morning by the appear ance at church, in a solid, orderly phalanx, of Dan Kice’s entire Show Company, who happen ed to be stopping there over the Sabbath.
