Execution of John BroWm I >tjskvisM' with ms wtph. The interview between John Brown And his wife on Thursday, lasted from four o’clock In! the afternoon until eight in the evening. On the Rfst meeting they kissed and affectionately embraced, and JMrs, Brown shed’ a few tears, hut immediately checked her feelings. They stood, embraced," and she sobbing, for nearly five minutes, while he was apparently unable to speak; but he only gave way for a moment, and was soon calm and collected, and remained lirra throughout the interview, which was rather of a practical character, with regard to the fu ture of herself and children, and the arrange ment and settlement of business affairs. At the close of "the interview they shook hands hut did not embrace, and as they parted, he said, “God bless you and the children.” Mrs. Brown replied, “God have mercy on you.” She con tinued calm until she left the room, when she remained in tears a few moments and then prepared to depart. The interview took place in the -parlor of Capt. Avis, and the prisoner was free from manacles of any kind. With regard to his execution, he said that he desired no religious ceremonies, either in the jail or on the scaffold from ministers who con sent or approve of the enslavement of their fellow creatures ; that he would prefer rather to he accompanied to the scaffold by a dozen slave children and a good old slave-mother, with their appeal to God fur blessings on bis son, than all the eloquence of the whole clergy of the commonwealth combined. THE EXECUTION' On Friday morning the prisoner was brought out of the jail at eleven. Before leaving he bid adieu to all his fellow prisoners, and and was very affectionate to all except Cook. lie charged Cook with having deceived and misled him in relation to the support he was to receive from the slaves ; he was led to believe they were rife for insurrection, and had found that his repre sentations were false. Cook denied the charge, but made little reply. 1 The prisoner then told the sheriff that he was ready. His arms w'ere pinioned, and with a black slouch hat on, and the same clothes he wore during the trial, he proceeded to the door, apparently calm and cheerful. As he came out, the six companies of infantry and one troop of horse, with Gen. Taliaferro and his entire staff, were deploying in front of the jail, while an open wagon, with a pine box, in which was a fine oak cofliu, was waiting for him. ■ Ho looked nround and spoke to several per sons he recognized, and, walking down the steps, took a scat on the coffin box, along with the jailer Avia, lie looked with interest on the fine military display, hut madofno remark.— The wagon moved off, flanked jfy two files of riflemen in close order. On reaclring the field the military bad already full possession. Pick ets were stationed, and the citizens kept hack at the point of the bayonet from taking any position but that assigned them. On his way to the scaffold, Mr. Sadler, an undertaker, who was in the wagon with him, remarked, “Capt. Brown, you are a game man.” lie answered, “Yes, I was so trained up; it was one of the lessons of my mother—but it is hard to part from friends, though newly made.” He then remarked, “This is a beautiful coun try, I never had the pleasure of seeing it be fore.” On reaching the field where the gallows was erected, the prisoner said, “'Why are none but military allowed in the in closure! lam sorry citizens hare been kept out.” On reaching the gallows ho observed Mr. Hunter and Mayor Green standing near, to whom be said, “Gen tlemen, good-bye,” his voice not faltering. The prisoner walked up the steps firmly, and was the first man on the gallows. Avis and Sheriff Campbell stood by his side, and after shaking hands and bidding an affectionate adieu, he thanked them for their kindness, when the cap was put on his face and the rope nround his neck. Avis asked him to step for ward on the trap. HeVeplied; “Y'ou must lead me, I cannot see.” The rope was adjusted, and the military order given, “not ready yet.” The soldiers marched, counter-marched, and took position as if an enemy were in sight, and were thus occupied for nearly ten minutes.— The prlsoiicr standing all the time. Avis in quired if he was not tired. Brown said ; “Xu, not tired, but don’t keep me watting longer tiian necessary.” Ho was swung off at fifteen minutes past eleven. A slight grasping of the hands and twitching of the muscles wore seen, and then all was silent. The body was several times examined, and the pulse did not cease until thirty-five minutes had passed. The body was then cut down, placed in a coffin, and conveyed under military escort to the depot, where it was put in a car to be carried to the Ferry by a special train' at 4 o’clock. All the arrangements were carried out with a precision «md military strictness, that was most annoying. The general conviction everywhere enter tained was that the excitement rescue was an egregious hoax.— Jurats, Stati; Politic.;. —We arc glad to observe that a very general disposition exists among the Re publicans of tho State, to confine the action of the coming State Convention to the transaction of duties. These duties comprise the nomination of a candidate for Governor, the election of two delegates at large to the National Convention, and the settling of the electoral ticket. The prospect now is that (he dictum of the State Committee requiring an expression of the choicd of Pennsylvania fur the Presidency will be totally disregarded by the Convention—the members thereof not hav ing been chosen for any such purpose. As to the appointment of delegates to the National Convention by the Harrisburg gathering, that game is out of the question. Many of the most influential papers of the State have ar rayed themselves • against the measure, and if an attempt is made to carry it into effect, the indications are that it will be unceremoniously quashed. The Republicans of Pennsylvania, in their respective districts, are perfectly com petent to choose their own delegates, and when the proper time comes they will do so. With the right to elect, they also claim the'right to instruct their delegates as they sec fit upon the question of the Presidency, regardless of the dictation of political managers and wire pullers. —Mucks County Intelligencer.

They are authorized to con tract for us at our lowcst-ratcs. Zfanknm Terror, Egg. Order reigned in Warsaw ; Bunkum Terror, Esq., desires to reign in Washington. The personality of this individual is Legion. He is the Grand Devil of the raco Satanic. His mission is to weak spines and limber knees. His weapons are bluff and bluster, and croco dile tears. Great is Bunkum Terror of the Southrons! There was wo in a great city in the old days. A wide chasm rent its way through the Forum, and word went out that no less than the volun tary Immolation of a noble Roman might ap pease the wrath of the gods. Curtlus, of the flower of the Roman nobility, put on bis har ness, mounted his horse and proceeded to the awful brink; He plunged in ; the chasm dis appeared ; Romo was saved. Let us pause and consider; The age of mir acles is said to be passed away. The being of Curtins is even denied. That another Curtins’ should arise to heal a rent in any Forum under heaven, should such a rent be made, is extreme ly improbable. It behooves the true patriots of every clinic, then, to guard against the calam ity of such a chasm in their respective Capitols. IVo be to him who splits the Forum of his land in twain! But the individual whoso name adorns the head of this article, in the person of tho Hon orable Keitt, of South Carolina, has solemnly declared on the floor of tho House of Repre sentatives, that ho will stand tamely by and suffer this glorious union to “split from turret to foundation,” rather than that the South be robbed of the very least of her rights. And when Tiiaddeus Stevens assured him that he, Keitt, was doing quite right to bluster and threaten - ; that it might affect weak spines and trembling knees, the chivalrous and eminently democratic Keitt laid Ida hand upon his revol ver and breathed ballets and blunderbusses at the imperturbable member from Lancaster. The spirit of Bunkum Terror then went out of the indignant Keitt and straitway entered into the lion. Crawford, of Georgia. That gen tleman proved not to be a good medium, being thrown into convulsions which rendered his speech incoherent and painful. Thcncd, the troubled wraith departed, and entered into tho body of Hon. Pryor, an F. F. V. who proceeded to lay down the comfortable doctrine, that any man who presumed to at tempt to put down agitation of the Slavery question must be counted hostile to the South, and more frightful still, lose the valuable es teem of Southern men. Whereupon, Mr. Nel son, of Tennessee, assured Hon. Virginia Pry or that personally he had no apprehensions from said Pryor, and that Ire, Nelson, should oppose further agitation ; and furthermore, that while opposed to dueling, he could take care of himself both in and out of Congress. Pryor retorted something to the effect that Nel son had better remain quiet; that he was in tire interest of the Abolitionists; which impu tation Mr. Nelson indignantly repelled. The excitement here lulled, and neither turret nor foundation of the glorious Union suffered frac ture. ' But Mr. 11. R. Helper, of North Carolina, did, in the year IS’>o, write a book, having for its basis, chiefiy, the official Report of the last census ; the object of the book being to show that whereas, slave labor dehaseth a nation, but free labor exalteth a people ; therefore, it is the duty of all good patriots to use all peacablo means for the final triumph of free labor. We like the book, and believe it to be eminently proper for all persons to read. Some sixty-odd Republican members of Congress thought so, and lent their names to its circulation. But Bunkum Terrof got wind of the book—"that infamous book!” he dubs it—and now he in sists upon if; that every endorser of the book ought to he punished as an .incendiary. Bun kum declares that it counsels insurrection, and that its circulation would involve the South in civil war; whereas, having read the book, we hasten to assure the worthy trembler that its circulation can do no possible harm among the elect—by whom we mean the gentleman's con stituents, and patrons of democratic newspa pers generally, they being unable to read. So Bunkum is unnecessarily alarmed, lie is also silly ; for he says he has not read the hook him self. He is likewise impolitic ; for he has kept Congress idle an entire week in advertising the "infamous hook.” He is likewise an ass ; be cause evory man who reads it will sec that the indignant Bunkum fears that Slavery must go down before the serried array of facts and fig ures. Mr. Sherman is the Republican candi date for Speaker; he endorsed the book. The wrathful Bunkum swears that Mr. Sherman, if elected, shall not take his seat. Let Bunkum pause and reflect; the Union would snap, from turret to foundation, were lie to execute his im plied threat. Pause, 0 Bunkum of the reign of Terror ! Reflect that that great U nionsaver, Hon. Icicle Kverett, is at this moment darning the damaged Union, so os to make it presenta ble for the campaign of 1860. We know and admit that resistance to right and decency con stitutes the stock in trade of the Mulatto party everywhere ; but do not rend the Union though Decency should triumph in the election of Mr. Sherman Speaker. . Thus much of Bunkum Terror, Esq., now rampant in Washington, wo gather from the telegraphic reports of proceedings in Congress for the past week. It may become our duty to refer lo him a;’,ain.

This Society hi its object the Christianization of the Sout worthy object, certainly ; but we protest ag the proposed manner of doing it. In the place the South has of late over and agai dared its ability and intention to dispense Northern aid in the management of its af Let that pass. We first notice the heresy of Rev. Dr. That gentleman took the high ground till African Slave Trade was instituted by thi mighty for the laudable purpose of christ ing the Negro race, and consequently the trade was a Divinely appointed branch of merco; therefore, slavery must be a Div appointed means for the elevation of the I race. Such is the unmistakable drift tl Cox’s argument. But as he failed to can; reasoning on his proposition to its legitl conclusion, wo begin where he loft off, an< dude as follows: The Slave Trade was instituted by G< the elevation of the Negro ; the Congn by solemn enactment, did abolisl Trade, and further declared it piracy the law of nations: Therefore, Congress in 18<>S, rebel against Heaven’s docr.ee, at piously stigmatized that decree as piracy Again: If tho Slave Trade was a G creed means of christianizing Africa, tl tercets of Africa require it to be reopened we remark here, that such* is the very ment used by the advocates of the rcope: the Slave Trade in the South. Mr. Win. E. Dodge, somewhat wide favorably known in this region, next stat he had traveled in the South and fou slaves very docile and teachable, gei He had told them how many poor whit in the North were starving to death, f horted the slaves to be thankful that tl somebody to take care of them. Now Mr. Win. E. Dodge is a man of i common sense, certainly, and we think Utile above the average; but a ten-year would not offer so contemptible a aopl that. He cither meant to tell those that want is a necessary consequent of al and political freedom, or he did not. did, then he intended to teach somethii , thinking man knows to be false. If he so intend to teach, he meant nothing w It is as if Mr. Dodge had said to those “Dear brethren of a common faith'; S a pretty dirty puddle, but there is a|di/ die in New York; therefore sit down cdly in your filth, and thank God that no filthier." This is the scope of slai olngj everywhere ; this is what Slavej ing to render Christianity in the nj century servilcr than it was in the dajj Pope, Uic stench of whose abominatio fends the nostrils of decent people.

Washington-, Dec. 10, 18V.), le in ; and argu .ing of On Monday morning last the Republicans in the House of Representatives had some hopes of an immediate organization by the election of a Republican Speaker, by accessions from either the Antl-Lccompton Democrats or the South Americans. Without help tho Republican strength would be 113 ; but as it requires 110 to constitute a majority no election can be bad unless by accessions from some of the minor parties, or by the adoption of the plurality rule. Nothing could be told about the organization however, till a vote could be taken, and this was prevented by Clark of Missouri who had to save the Union and advertise Hinton Rowan Helper’s Book, — The Impending Crisis —by an inflamatory and bungling speech. Finally a vote was taken with the following result: For Sherman of Ohio, (Repub.) GO; Bocock of Va. (Dem.) 86; Grow of Penna. (Ropub.) 43; Gilmer of N. C. (S. Am.) 3 ; BotclcrofVa. (S, Ain.) 14; Scattering 15. Tho division of the Republican vote between Mr. Grow and Mr. Sherman was from no mis understanding between these gentleman. Both had their personal friends, and many voted for Sherman from a supposed political necessity in the election of a Clerk of tho House. All the New York Southern Tier members voted with the members from Pennsylvania for Grow, with the exception of Irvine of the Corning District where Grow labored last fall. Irvine voted for Sherman. As soon as the vote was announced, Mr, Grow arose in his place and' said *. “As I desire in no way to retard the organi zation of the House, I withdraw my name as a candidate. I assure those gentlemen who, in kindness, have cast their votes for me, that I shall treasure through life so distinguished a mark of friendship and regard.” On Tuesday no vote was taken. The Demo crats seemed fully determined to keep the Op position from effecting an organization. The day was consumed in discussing the merits and demerits of Helper’s Book. A little episode occurred which may serve to show the kind of timber the nigger-driving slavocrats have to deal with in the new Congress. Old Thau. Stevens raised a point of order that until the House be organized it is not competent for the Clerk to entertain any question except to pro ceed to the election of a Speaker or to adjourn. He supported his piont with a few remarks, when Crawford of Georgia advanced from the Democratic side of the House, shook hia fist in the old man's face, denounced the Union meet ings at the North, &c,, in a strain of incohe rent invective. The noise was deafening.— Members gathered around Mr. Stevens and there was a general hubbub. Pryor and some body else seized Crawford and held him back, and Old Thad. turned to the Republican side and said very cooly: “This is tho way they used to frighten us/’ Order was soon restored, several buncombe speeches were delivered and the House adjourned without a vote on the Speakership. Wednesday was occupied in much tho same way. Mr. Nelson of Tennessee (a new South American member) made a very effective speech, and entirely took the wind out of Roger A. Pryor’s sails in a personal controversy with tho latter; This discussion which in itseif amount ed to nothing, showed very plainly that the Democrats cannot coax nor bully the South Americans into their support.

Mansfield, Dec. 10, 1859. Mr. Torso: Having a commission from ypu to report to the Agitator whatever may take place at Mansfield or Covington, worthy of note, I hasten to give you a brief account of the pro ceedings of,the Singing “Festival,” held at Mansfield, commencing on the Oth and ending on the Oth of this month. The Festival was conducted by Prof. C. S. Hagar, —a name familiar to almost every house hold in the county. This popular teacher of sacred music, has been spending several months “down east," undergoing a thorough training in the science of music ; if we are to judge by what he has accomplished in Mansfield, it will redound to his future glory. The first two days of the session, were devo ted to substantial church music, and the even ing of each day to reviewing tho work of the day. The singers present up to this time, were those that the Prof, bad manufactured from the “raw material” in a few lessons given before the Festival, with a few exceptions. -On the evening of the second day, the President of the ‘ ‘Mansfield Association,” who had remained incog up to this time to your reporter, made his appearance “to put a motion,” that had been made to appoint a committee on resolutions. The President amended it so much that I could not tell after they voted what they voted for. One thing Ido know, they voted to “draft” a committee. The following gentlemen were “drafted” : Prof. J, Dandrcth, Rev. 11. D. Stillwell, and K. G. Sperry, and, I suppose they “appointed” the resolutions which I send you. The third and last days of the Festival were devoted to anthems and set pieces, which were to be sung at the concert, which culminated on the oth. Singers began to drop in from various sections of the county. Gray’s Vallny was well represented, both in numbers and talent. The concert was opened by singing a few choice metrical tunes, and then a scries of an thems, intermingled with quanelts and select ed pieces. “What she said,” was sung by four gentlemen from Gray’s Valley. Miss Bowen sung and played a piece called “All wear cloaks.” It took down the various professions except the Editors, they were not uncloaked. Tho singing was closed by singing ‘-The Haymakers”—a portion of It by several un known to me. In the course of the evening, Prof. J. Lan dreth made some remarks to tho singers. It was also announced that Prof. Hagar had con sented to hold a Festival for the benefit of the Seminary. Some one made a motion to have a committee appointed to make arrangements for the occasion. This Jarought oirt the President. He said: It was motion-fecZ and scckon-/cd that Prof. Hagar be solicited to deliver another Festival, this was received »with deafening shouts of laughter. The motion was adopted. S. B. Elliott responded to the resolution, not as the President delivered it, bat as it was meant. R. L. Stillwell was called upon for some re marks. lie said the singers could not sing without their “notes,” neither could ho speak without his “notes.” 1 understood him to say: “he was happy of the ‘deliverance’ ” —here the cider could not speak fur laughing, and he re sumed his scat amidst the violent laughter and stamping feet. The admission to the Festival, —fur enjoying the whole uf it, was 2o cents,--cheap enough, surely, for 36 hours of instruction and practice. 10 cents was the price of a single admission. I believe tho Festival paid expenses at these rates. L. . Resolution's.
