it would seem. blacks and whites assembled
cautiously and planned that dreadful thing, a
servile insurrection.
Of the motives which prompted this mote.

hider of the Kansas people at thrawettornie,
where his son was murdered by Missourians,
said his hassle destroyed. - Those events fbUnd

has been established in Kansas. he attempted

ilia wonderful that be escaped death. Revenge
upon the southerners seems to have taken
complete possession of Brown. As he could

slaves in Maryland and Virginia.
It was the freak of a man whose wits bad
been crazed by his domestic calamities. And
yet he seems to have found followers as reck
less as himself; bow many is still uncertain.
though twenty or thirty. would probably be
the largest number of whites concerned in the
outbreak. So far as we can make it out, the
plan was to seize the town of Harper's Ferry
and the Government armory hod arsenal, and
- bc - ild - them as e - fortifiestion7towhich - the slaves
from the neighboring country might come and
be organized for military operations. There

especially they had seized the government ar

stated there was a large sun of money deposit.
at. Upon rising from sleep in the morning.
the people of Harper's Ferry found themselves
surrounded by an organized mob of whites and
blacks, and sentinels posted at all the leading
points. Affrighted at the unusual aspect of
things, the inhabitants mostly fled, carrying
alarm and dismay all through she adjoining
country. Those who remained or resisted
were captured and imprisoned in the armory,
among them being severe! leading citizens of
Virginia.
To prevent. he spread of the news the inane
gents cut down all the telegraphic wires. The
bridge over the Potomac river was seized.
armed men stationed at both ends. and all
passage forbidden. The Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad passes the place, and to prevent this
being used to bring a hostile form against them
the insurgents stopped the running of the train..
The news, however, was taken to Baltimore by
a train which they allowed to go through in
order to carry the warning not to send any
more cars. -
At first the intelligence of this rising was
discredited, but, as noon as it was ascertained
to be true, the Administration at Washington
took prompt measures to send troops to sup
' press the disturbance. • Three companies of
infantry were'sent from Fort Monroe and one
company of marines from .Washington. cont•

Baltimore several companies of volunteers were
sent. Gov. Wise. of Virginia, issued a pro
clemation ordering out a regiment of volun
teers, and 'lent an exrees horseman to ride
through the country nearest Harper's Ferry
and summon the people to arms. A company
was sent from Fredericksburg. ` The most ex
aggerated notions prevailed along the Potomac,
respecting the Importance of the rising, and
apprehensions of danger were entertained at
Washington, Alexandria, and ether places. •
After accomplishing their purpose of seisi4
the town and armory, the insurgents awaited
orehtlbrosments. They expected about fifteen

THE lISII OF PLASTER IN MICTIIGIAN.—We
have a letter from G. Smith. of Ioni• Co..
Mich., giving a detail of the effect of plaster
upon some of the sandy land in that Became.
which cannot be profitably colligated except
by the use of plaster and clover.
But," he says. " if it is kept to clover a
suitable portion of the time, and plaster to the
amount of even .50 lbs. per acre sown, It will
increase in productireness. The- enterprising,
intelligent farmer asks for no better land than
the openings and plains of Michigan ; but the
Lay. old fashioned firmer soon starves.out.—
This fact is being exemplified all around us
continually. Plaster is more valuable, at the
same price per pound. to the owners of sandy
land, than the best concentrated manures. for
there is no one of them the , effects of which
would be so great at the rate of 100 lbs. per
acre. An intelligent farmer of this county
has said that farmers here cannot nil wst" to
