The I:Carport's 'Ferry Insurrection.
In another column will be found a brief
account of an iniurrection set on foot at
Harper's Ferry, Virginia, by a dozen RI.
more Abolitionists for the purpose of secu
ring freedom to the slave's of that and ad
joining' States. The attempt was unlawful,
because Slavery, however wrong, is entitled
to the protection given by the laws of the
several States. The man again, who would
force freedom upon •an unwilling slave, is
in point of morals equally criminal with
the master, who would hold the slave
againitt his will. The bloodshed and evil
results attending an insurrection would.
more than counter-balance all the possible
good, to be hoped for from the liberation of
our slave population. The attempt in the
Harper's Ferry case was a rash one, because
every eane man could have preclicted none
other than the unfortunate termination to
the insurrection, which has just been
,roughishKtutcondemn - therefore - the
attempt of Ossawottamie B?bwn and his co
workers, as in violation of law, as uncalled
fir by circumstances, as entailing an amount
of misery in its prosecution, even if suc
cessful, more than equal to all the good to
be accomplished, and as impolitic, because
impracticable, and doomed to a signal fail
ure. Whilst such is the view, which must
be taken of the sad affair by every dispas
sionate and well-balanced mind, .there are
not Democratic Journalists wanting, who
would seek to hold the Republican party
responsible for Brown's acts, and to heap
odium on the party in consequence. What
are the simple facts ? Letters found in pos
session of Brown show, that he was assist
ed by Fred Douglass and Gerrit Smith, the
former a black, and the latter a white man,
both Abolitionists of the North, combined
with others of like kidney. Whilst the
, Abolitionists of the North seek to interfere
with slavery in other StateS, some.by peace
able means and others by force, the Repub
lican party is committed by its platforms,
its past professions, and its acts, to the doc
trine of opposition to the extension of slave
ry- beyond its present limits and of nqn
invention with slavery in the States, except
by,,,the State themselves. The Abolitionists
condemn the Republicans, because not com
' ing up to their radical and insane notions.
and Gerrit' Smith at the last .Gubernatorial
election in York State ran as a candidate
for Governor, with the purpose of defeating
the Republican and electing the Democrat
ic nominee. Republicani stand on the doc
trines of Jefferson and other sages of the
revolution, whilst Abolitionism is the crea
ture of a,later day. Opposition to the fur
ther extension of slavery has been the pol
icy of our government from the adoption of
the constitution down to the year 1854,
when the Democratic party under the lead
of Douglass by the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise opened the door to all the trou
blee,•which ever since have-distracted and
divided the country. Kansas, dedicated as
free territory by the compromise of 1820
was opened as a field, in which the friends
' of free and slave territory might mutually
battle for supremacy. Emigrant Aid So
cieties poured into the territory from the
North emigrant settlers, who wished to
make the territory a free State peacefully
by the ballot-box. The South, poured into
the territory ruffians, bent on making it a
slave State by violence and fraud., Peace
able settlers, who would not surrender their
manhood, were driven to measures of re
sistance, and Kansas became the theatre of
civil strife, in which acts of violence were
perpetrated, that have had no parallel in ,
our history, .and which might well stir a
fever even in the blood of age. No won
der, that the old man Brown, who suffered
so much, and two of whose sons lost their
lives in the strife, at the sight of the mur
der of one of whom his daughter became a
raving maniac, should become a mono
maniac, and that his maddened brain should
. contrive just such a plot as that sought to
be carried out at Harper's Ferry. This is
but another of the melancholy consequen
• ees' of the Kansas policy of Presidents
Pierce and Buchanan, and the Democratic
party, who placed them in power and sus
- fain their acts, should bear the fearful re
sponsibiliiy. _
The Recent Elections.
By intelligence in another column, it
will be seen that the Republicans of Ne
braska have elected their - candidate for Del-.
egate to Congress. Our readers will be
phased to learn, that the Opposition have
carried every election held in every North
ern State and' Territory during the past
year, save California alone, where the. Op
position were divided.
THE GREAT EASTERN.—Latest intelli
gence from Europe informs us, that the
Great Eastern will not make her contem
plated visit to America this fall, but will
' remain over winter at Southampton, where
her boilers will be refitted.

Amendment not ordy requires foreigners to
reside in the State tiro years after naturali
•zation, before being entitled to vote for
members of the Legislature, but also re
quires a property qualification, unless the
voter be a resident of the election district
for six months preeeeding the election.—
The following is the Amendment:
Amendment Ratified 20th December, 1856
That the amendment of the fourth seotion of the
first article of the Constitution of this State, ratified
Nth December, 1810, be altered and amended to
road as follows: Every free white man of the age
of twenty one years, paupers and non-commissioned
officers and private soldiers of the army of the United
States excepted, who bath been a citizen and resi
dent in this State two years previous to the day of
election,. and who has a freehold of • fifty acres of
land, or a town lot, of which he bath been legally
seized and possessed at least six months before such
election or, not having such freehold '
or town lot,
bath been a resident in the election district in which
he offers to give his vote six months before the said
election, shall have a tight to vote for a member or
members to serve in either branoh of the Legislature
for the election district in which he holds such
property, or is so resident.
A copy of the Amendment was sent to a,
Democratic politician of ildinnesota, by J.
W. Hayne, the Democratic Secretary of
State of South Carolina, who writes the fol
lowing letter :
OFFIOW OT ATTORNEY' GENERAL,
CHARLESTON, S. C. Aug 20, 1839.
DEAR Sin: Yours of the Ist August, directed to
Colombia, reached me only a fold days since. I
inclose you a oopyof the article of the Constitution
about which you inquire, as it now stands under the
amendment of 1856 ; likewise a copy of the amend
ment as adopted in 1810. You will perceive that the
voter must have been "a resident and a citizen" for
TWO years at the time of the election. The amend
ment intended to put a stop to the indecent habit of
making citizens immediately preceding and on the
day of election, a Courtin this city being always
held at the time. It was thought unjust toward
adopted' itizens inasmuch as a native of South Car.
olina removing to another Slate, and returning to
South Carolina, had to reside two years in the State
before be recovered the right to vote. It was thought
claim to be placed on a better footing. Such hap
pened to be my own condition. Though myself a
native—with an anoestry for generations buried in
Lie Bearer South Carolina—a removal to Alabama
took away my right to v6te in this. State, and on my
return I was for two years deprived of thin privii
ego; and during this time I saw hundreds of for
eigners voting around me who were not citizen's of a
week old, and whose whole residence in the United
States was not one fifth as long as my own in South
Carolina, to say nothing of the years passed in Ala
bama.
I think the amendroadment was suggested by my
self. I considered it not only right in itself, but
it was further recommended to me because it de
prived the Know Nothings—just bef we. a formida
ble party in Charleston—of a popular " cry" which
met with a strong sympathy in public feeling. The
amendment was drawn up by me, and introduced
simultaneously into the Senate and House of Repro
sentatives ; in the former by Mr. Porter, lately
Chairmen of the Executive Committee, of a part, to
put down the Know Nothings, which party had just
triumphed—and in the Lower House by Mr. Whit
ney, a Know Nothing.
An amendment to the Constitution is made in
this State by a vote of two-thirds of each branch
in two %memoirs Legislature., the proposition being
advertised for six months in the interval. This
ataend'ment seemed to meet universal approval, and
no voice of objection was raised against it, either
foreign or native. I myself consulted with several
of the most influential of our adopted citizens here,
• and they warmly approved the change, and assured
. me that they thought it would, when understood,
bo generally acceptable.
I would be pleased to know that you had receiv
ed this explanation.
Very respectfully, your ob't serv't.

were employed in loading powder-dust plait bi '
called when in a certain condition)at thapress.;'
room, to be tionsaired to one of the other' imills
to go , through another process. A one horse
cart, stood opposite the press room door, part
ly loaded. The press room ,‘ blew up" with a
terrible crash ; the composition room immedi
ately followed ' • a minute or two later theglas
ing room and the two rolling mills eimultarts
outily-.—being theta all. '
Seven men were killed, and another had his
arm broken. .The wind was northwest, and
high at the time, which deadenal the sound, tio
much in the immediate vicinity that the men
in the upper yard did not. cease work on the
instant, and Mr. Henry Dupont, who was in
the basement of a cotton mill not far distant,
did not think from the light report., that it was
necessary to hurry to the yard to ascertain the
damage, if-any bad been done. Two of the
men were blown into the Brandywine. one be
ta a tree, and the headless trunk of another
was blown to the opposite side of the creek.—
Of the-others nothing oould be ascertained.
A strange feature in tne explosion is that
the horse was not killed, although standing in
proximity to the press room when it want off.
The cart to which he was attached, and which
was partly loaded with powder dust, was
thrown,about in fragments ; the horse was en
tirely stripped of his harness, his hair oinked
off, one eye put out, and one leg broken ; and
yet, after tho smoke and dust cleared away. he
was found limping about the yard, exhibiting
all the signs of painful agony which he suffered.
Be-was. knocked in the head and - killed to-rer
Here him of his agonies. The names of the
killed men were Moran, Sweeney. Sebar,
Jacobs, John-Welsh. Michael O'Donnell, and
E. Dougherty. The Coroner visited the scene
of the explosion to look after his interests. but
could - learn nothing, all-the witnesses having
been killed.
The loss of the mills tok were. Dupont is
nothing. The loss of life is the only thing
which sinks deep into their hearts. from their
inability to restore it.
ANOTHER FATAL DUEL IN CALIFORNIA. - At
about 7 o'clock on the morning of the 18th of .
September. a duel was fought at a place about
five miles trona San Andreas, California. be
tween-DrPraston-Goodwin.-andllot_William,
Jeff. Gatewood. Weapons used; rifles; dis
tance. 80 yards. At the first fire Dr. Good
win fell mortally wounded, and died about
two hours afterwards. The Hon. W. T. Lew
is and Major Glenn. for Dr. Goodwin, and
Capt. Pope and Martin Rowman, for Col.
Gatewood, acting as "friends." The tele.
graphic account of this murder says that " the
principals displayed great bravery and gentle.
manly deportment." The preliminaries were
all arranged, and the parties ready for position
by 7 o'clock A. M. The participants are re-
ported to have both appeared cool, and to have
exchanged courtesies at the moment of taking
positions assigned by the seconds. The word
was given thus: " Are you ready? one, two.
three." At the interrogative part of the sen
tence, each answered " I am. ' At the mo
ment that the word " three" was about to be
articulated, both sprung the triggers of their
rifles.' Dr. Goodwin's hung fire and he lost
his shot. Mr. Gatewood's shot struck Good
win in the abdomen, rangeing obliquely and
downwards passing out of the hip. Immedi
ately upon Dr. Goodwin's fall, Mr. Gatewood
advanced toward him, extending his hand and
remarking, " Doctor I am very sorry that
this affair terminated so—very sorry. indeed."
To which the Doctor replied, " I am glad to
know that you acted like a gentleman."—
Gatewood thanked him for his kind remark.
and left the II Id an company with kis surgeon.
Both parties wore Democratic politicians—the
deceased a Lecomptonito and the survivor a
Anti- Lecomptonite. They quarrelled prior
to the late election, and engaged in a melee.
Goodwin was the challenging party, and he has
paid the penalty of his act with his life. Both
gentlemen were highly esteemed in the com
munity.

RETURN JUDGE AERBSTED.—A warrant was
issued on Monday for the arrest of the Return
Judge of Scranton. South Ward for frauds com•
raitted in the ballot box and return. The
Judge was in town early on Friday. but could

he filed his return the tally list was much

Scranton. and at lasflnspector Joseph Slocum
and Clerk of Election Hitchcock came down.
stating Stark's majority a little above 200.
Men were vaporing about the Court House. de
claring that Stark's majority was 315. and
some even 400. so that suspicions of• foul play
began to: arise, as the vote was close. The
highest number mentioned failing to elect
Stark, the rerun at last came in 202, electing
Ketcham by 215. Then it was said that the
false report was raised to enable some heavy
betters on Stark to withdraw them. But it is
asserted that the ballot box at South Ward,
Scranton, has been tampered with, and more
than a hundred of Ketcham's votes taken out
and Stark's put in place. and a corresponding
alteration made in the list. The whole affair
akould undergo a judicial investigation and be
thoroughly scrutinized.
The warrant was put in the hands of Con-
stable McKinney, and made specially returna
ble before Esquire Barnes in this Borough, but
Mr. Flynn preferred to go before Justice Jay in
Scranton, and gave bail in $lOOO.. Mr. May
went his bail.

The New Orleans Crescent tells a shocking
story about a sexton named Meritt. Us sent
his men to bury a poor man in a grave at the
back end of a certain cemetery. After a short
time, the men came back excited, saying that
they could not burr that man; that in was
sitting np in his coffin, and swearing that he
w s'nt dead. Merritt. in high indignation,
seised a spade and went back to the grave
himself, where, be found his customer sitting
up and looking quietly around him. Bat, de.

man wee buried anyhow. Be struggled and
resisted re; well as he could, but a few ban

clamored over the fence, and picking np an
apple. gave it to the woman, who, after biting
it and not liking the taste threw it away.—
The proprietor of the orchard noticing the sot,
had the man arrested fir stealing, and the wo
man for receiving stolen goods. Both were
