THE HARPER'S FERRY INSURREC-
As the facts relating to the late outbreak
at Harper's Ferry, develope themselves, they
assume the form and magnitude of a regularly
concocted and deep laid conspiracy against
the government of the United States. I t was
no madman either who originated and car
ried out the plan of this outbreak. The
scheme was laid months ago, and the seeds
of that corruption whence it sprung, have
been planted in the breasts of fanatical
Abolitionists by such men as Giddings, Gar
rison, Gerrit Smith, Seward and the kindred
hosts, who, having neither patriotism nor
moral honesty, have followed in their wake
until their sectional irrepressible conflict
doctrines have culminated in high treason.
It is a singular fact that the anonymous
letter to Secretary Floyd, bearing date of the
second of August is so nearly cotemporane
ous with Gerrit Smith's declaration that
the next movement made in the direction
of negro emancipation would be an insur
rection in the South. This looks as though
the writer of that letter and Gerrit Smith
were both in possession of the knowledge of
the same facts. Also, among "the bushels
of letters" discovered in the possession of
the traitors was one from this same Gerrit
Smith informing the arch-traitor Brown of
money being deposited in a bank in New
York, to the credit of J. Smith S: Sons, (a
very anonymous firm,) which appears to be
one of many informing him from time to
time, as money was raised. Here was aid
and comfort to the public enemy. The
"sinews of war" seem to have beenfurnish
ed from all parts of the Northern States.
Through the assistance of men who claim to
be American citizens a large amount of arms
and munitions of war were concentrated
secretly at the scene of action. These were
to arm the slaves and all preparations were
made to strike the first blow in the irrepres
sible conflict by initiating a servile war. It is
wonderful how so great an amount of work
could have been done without discovery , but it
was done, and is of itself a damning proof
that these traitors to their country were re
ceiving secret aid from men who were as bad
but not as bold as they.
A cotemporary regards this as altogether
the most alarming insurrectionary movement
which has ever occurred in the' United
States. It is a natural sequence of the ir
repiessible conflict doctrine boldly enuncia
ted by Mr. Seward. It is the enunciation—
the consequence <if Black Republican prin
ciples.
Its plan was preconcerted most deliber
ately. The extent to which the leading
Abolitionists and followers of Seward in the
North, are implicated, will probably never be
tully ascertained. The manifest appearance
of the whole thing is that it was inspired by
certain sectional fanatics who are high in the
ranks of the Republican party. It is a natu
ral consequence of the doctrines which they
teach. It is the duce of the public authori
ties to ferret out and bring to condign pun
ishment every wretch who has had the
least connection with this most damnable
plot.
This aflisir proves that there arc in the
North desperate Abolitionists fully prepar
ed to apply the match to the Onion, and to
place arms in the hands of Ys class of men
who would ruthlessly murder the white peo
ple—men, women and children—like sava
ges.
The bloody scheme at Harper's Ferry un
doubtedly had its eiders and abettors in dif
ferent parts of the Union. Harper's Ferry
was to be the starting point of the desperate
Black Republican schemes. The selection
was made with tact and judgment. There
was a United States Armory usually contain
ing about 90,000 stand of arms. Its topical
peculiarities were well suited to the scheme.
In - case of failure it would furnish an easy
escape to the insurgents through the gorges
and thickets of the Blue Ridge, and to the
mountain districts of Pennsylvania.
A formal provisional Constitution and or
dinances of more than thirty articles was
drawn up for the government of the people
of thetTnited States. From beginning to end
it is a most treasonable document. It pro
vides for qualifications of membership, the
organization of a government with legisla
tive executive, and judicial branches ; the
trial of the President, members of Congress,
Supreme ,fudges, and other public officers ;
treaties of peace, duty of the military, the
disposition of all captured and confiscated
property, a Safety, or intelligence Fund,
and a great variety of other matters, the
whole to be under the control of fi com
mander-in-chief, whose power for the time,
was to have been supreme and arbitrary.
How far this insurrection had progressed
among the whites and negroes it is impos
sible yet to say. The immediate outbreak
was made by a few men, but they evidently
had the promise and expectation of aid
from greater numbers, as is shown by the
extensive preparations which were made
for supplying arms and ammunition. It is
probable that this outbreak was only a pre
mature explosion of a more general and
wide-spread conspiracy. It is alleged that
a rising all 'over the States of Maryland and
Virginia was in contemplation,—that, the
24th of October was the day fixed for the at
tempt, and the seizure of the arsenal was to
be the signal to the insurgents. The pre
mattire seizure of the arsenal, whereby the
conflict has been precipitated before the
slaves were fully armed and ready for it, is
guppo3,o, to have resulted from a mistake of
some one entrusted by the leaders with the
execution of that part of the plot.
The leader of this singular and terrible
attempt to excite a servile war—the com
mander in chief of this band or traitors,
was " Old Brown, of Ossawattamie." lie
was a fit man to entrust with such a fanati
cal enterprise. His Kansas education had
-taught him to despise all law and order.-
- He was an early settler in the new territory,
and took a conspicuous part in many of the
- bloody outrages there committed in the
. name of freedom. He was a man of pas
' sion—not of reason. His outrageous disre
gard of law in Kansas, had cost him the loss
of his property and three or four of his
sons, and, with Corsican bitterness, he had
sworn vengeance against the South. Reck
less of consequences, he was ready to
plunge into any work of blood, and cared
not-how many innocent victims might be
destroyed so his vengeance was glutted.—
He was a man of gall—of bitter - hatred,—
without principle,and utterly thoughtless of
results. What was theory to those who led
him on, was practice in him. He was ready
to act, and cared not what construction the
public might put upon his motives. He
was a fit tool in the hands of' the designing
traitors who were undoubtedly at the bottom
of this conspiracy. -
Already the Black Republican press have
commenced to apologize for him. They say
that ex:Lspera tcd by wrongs dune him in
Kansas, he was driven to madness. They
place a theory in his mouth. They say he
req ned thus " that the slave drivers had
tried to put down freedom in Kansas by
force of arms, and he Would try to put down
slavery in Virginia by the same means."
This is the "irrepressible conflict" of Se
ward and Smith and Giddings, and the Black
Republican party carried out practically
by a bold, bad, desperate man. Who is re
sponsible for this? Not Brown, for he is
mad. But they, who by their countenance
and pecuniary aid have induced him thus to
resort to arms to carry out their political
schemes, must answer to the country and
the world for this fearfully significant out
break.
The terrible thought arises, what if he
had been successful in creating a war of
slaves and white men. In the South the
negroes greatly preponderate in number,
and if he had succeeded, the shuddering
imagination can scarcely conjure up the ter
rible scenes of incendiarism, and carnage
which would have been the result.—
Think of one half the population of a State
menacing the other half, with civil war,
rapine and murder.
The intent of this insurrection was to
bring these things in all their horrid
barbarity into actual existence. The re
sponsibility lies at the doors of that politi
cal party, whose fanatical disregard of
the principles of our Union leads men
to such intents. If our fair land is ever
deluged with the blood of civil war—if the
stars of the Union are ever divided—it
will result from the extreme and sectional
doctrines of the Black Republican party.
THE NEWS
Tae Railroad arrangements for the Win

in our local column. According to the ac
tion of the Cleveland Convention. but two
trains per day will be run during the winter.
The arrangement goes into effect on the
second Monday of November.
MR. FOUNTAIN BECK -HAM, who WAS among
the vietitoi of the recent terrible affair at Har
per's Ferry, was a brother of the late ..tlajor
A. Beckham, warden of the Western Pennsyl
vania Penitentiary. Ile was Mayor of Har
per's. Ferry and ticket agent of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad at that mint Like his
brother he was a Virginia gentleman of the
old school, beloved and respected by all who
knew him.

At a meeting of the c , mmittee of Ar
rangements for the reception of the treat
Eastern, held at Portland on Saturday.
''unalwrland, the agent, stated " that the
Directors had never entertaine.l the idea of
sanding the ship to any other port than
Portland, and it was, therefore, with per
fect surprise that he learned. on arriving
here, that the t.elief was seriously enter
tained by some that she would go to Now
York."
John La Mountain, tho
had his faith strengthened in the regular
etstern current of air liy his late unfortun
ate ascension. He says "We a:cetided
about direct thousand fpot, so great was ,air
ascensive momentum, without varying ten
feet from a perpendicular line, and at this
altitude! the balloon struck the North-East
ern current, and was drifted along with it
at about the rate of twenty-five miles an
hour, and still ascending very rapidly. The
current was one of great depth, as, although
we went up to the height of three and a half
miles, we did not loose it. Artist- reaching
an altitude of three miles and a half, we
took a still more easterly course. As some
journals have argued, judging from the point
at which we landed, that the eastern cut--
rent is not always reliable, I pause here to
remark that I never found it more so than
on that Thursday afternoon. I thought
then, and still continue to think. that had I
maintained an altitude of two and a half miles,
I could have crossed the ocean in thirty-six
hours, and without using any more ballast
than in making an ordinary local ascension.
It must be remembered that it was when
we left this ever-reliable stratum and de
scended into the local currents. that we
were carried in a northerly course."
The New York Board of Education have

The city railroads in St. Louis are laid on
macadamized streets ; the consequence is,
that stones are continually getting upon
the rails and throwing the cars off the track.
The St. Louis Express thinks the city ought
to compel the Railroad Company to pave
the streets on which they run, with stone.
Certainly they ought.
The Norfolk Day Bunk states that the
whole of that section of country is alive with
squirrels, and the corn fields bear unmis
takeable evidence of their thieving propen
sities. Not being able to get anything to
eat in the woods, they are becoming quite
neighborly, and morning and evening regu
larly visit the corn fields near Norfolk.
John A. Washington has "suspended."
It was stated, some time since that he had
invested $175,000 of the money he received
for the home of his great ancestor in corner
lot.: in Chicago. The presumption was
that he had paid over the cash for them
but it seems :that. he gave his notes for them,
and they have gone to protest.

were to o r u e l a d d all
the severe lectures and "solemn truths"
which the newspapers opposed to his ad
ministration are now delivering upon the
result of the Pennsylvania election. Every
one conceives it necessary to have a fling at
him. Fortunately, however, President
Buchanan does not see half these diatribes,
and probably does not read one of them;
hence he maintains the peaceful serenity of
mind which is compatible with his public
duties and a long and useful life. - ,
EVERGREEN BLOFF MINE.—The product of
copper at the Evergreen Bluff Mine for the
month of September last was 12,918 lba.,
paying a profit above 4expenses of about
$450, without estimating the stamp-work
produced. A hoisting engine has just been
put in operation at this mina.

It is stated that the bondholders who
purchased the Northwestern Railroad, aro
endeavoring to make arrangements by which
the Central Railroad Company will lay hold
of and purchase the work. This would be
a desirable consummation; for, should this
company become the owner, there can be no
doubt but the road would be completed at
an early day.
A new Salt mine has been discovered at
Central city, Marion county, Southern Illi
nois, during some examinations for coal.
A shaft was sunk to the depth of 170 feet,
when, not finding coal in workable quanti
ties, boring was carried down 100 feet farther
which penetrated a saltbearing strata, when
the salt water rose to the top of the boring,
and flowed out at the rate of from 800 to
1,000 gallons per hour.

To the Editor ,?! the Banner and Advocate. :
:—I freely acknowledge that when an
author appears Leforo the public, his produc
tion is a fair subject of criticism, and he
must endure with christian patience, any
unchristian judgment that may he passed
upon his work, provided, indeed, that that
judgment does not evince a disregard to
candor, liberality and fairness. And even
in this case, silence is in general, the more
prudent cour:e. Such was the course I had
determined upon in relation to the very
illiberal and unfair notice of my late work,
the "History of the Western Insurrec
tion," on the religious paper edited by you.
But on reflection, I have concluded to de
viate a little:from mylrule, and, in the present
case bestow upon you a few words of ac
knowledgment. My principal reason for
this step, is, that you do not stand like
others upon the mere weight of your own
authority, but necessarily speak, er cathedra.
as a power of the church, placing your
anathema, on the strong foundation of re
ligious faith To explain my meaning, I
will relate a little incident which occurred
at the Post Office of the village near which
I live. Atfew copies of my book were left there
for sale, but when o&red to some of your
, uhscrabem they at nice refused to buy.
lII'S that fij„s,rr had declared
the h.,01: to be entirely mwthles, , , ,_ s •
1;. As they did not wish
to buy the book merely for the binding,
they " ,' y , '4 .1 ,1 declined the opportunity of
leading the work. and judging for them
a, they might do under other encutn
stance,, now if your attention was exclusively
taken up with the binding, you could not
pat's a judgment 011 the merits
of the work itself. You ought to hat e re
membered the golden precept, "love mercy
do ju , tice, walk humbly instead of which
you hate shown no justice. and
have displayed more than an ordinary share
conceit and arrogance.

THE city of Wheeling seeks a compromise
with her creditor, The pamphlet before us,
setting forth the poverty-stricken condition of
the city, when contracted with the glowing
statements which influenced the original nego
tiation of her debt, presents an amusing exhi
bitionof financial tactics. It is now proposed
to issue new bonds for fifty per cent. of the
old debt --to levy a tax for the payment of in
terest and sinking fund—to hypothecate all
the property of the city, not subject to prior
lien 9, together with the railroad stock issued
to the city iu exchange fur her bonds, and to
create a trusteeship for the application of
such to the benefit of those creditors who shall
accept the arrangement. The city also en
gages to not, in any event, to present more
advantageous terms to those creditors who
shall stand aloof. The present arrangement
not to be consummated until three-fourths of
the creditors shall acquiesce. The following
is the debt of the city as it now stands:

show that the blacl. republican majority has
been reduced 678 on Governor from what it
was two years ago in the same counties. At
that time their total majority in the State was
but 2,151, so that General Dodge, the demo

CITY RAILWAY TRAVEL—THE
ItIKIITS ole• PASSENCEns.
case of interest to City Railway Conduc
tors and citizens has just been tried in Phila
delphia.
A Mr. Womrath got on to a car which was
filled inside, and a number of persons were
standing on the platform. Being lame, Mr.
W. took his station near the door, in order to
support himself. After proceeding some dis
tance, the conductor who had taken his fare on
entering, came to him and requested him to
move out of the doorway. Mr. W. desired the
conductor to show him, in the crowded state of
the car, where he could move to. Some words
ensued, and when at Fifth and Brown streets,
the driver of the car was called, and he, with
the conductor, put Mr. Womrath from the car,
Mr. W. receiving an injury to his arm from
the force used. Several witnesses testified that
the car was very much crowded ; that a number
of gentlemen were standing inside the car as
well as on the platform ; that while Mr. W.
was standing in the doorway, two or three lady
passengers were taken from the sidewalk and
passed into the car, without any difficulty, ex
cept that arising from the crowded state of the
car.
Judge Ludlow, in charging the jury said:
"This case creates come interest, because it
streets great masses of the community, and, in
asmuch as the rights of these corporations and
of individuals ere at stake, it is right that I
should state in brief the principles by which
you are to be governed. l should, in the first
place, say, that, so far as the power of conduc
tors to maintain and preserve order in their
cars, where they comply with the regulations
of the Company, is concerned, we have always
held that that power evicted; and where they
are exercising power delegated to them by the
Company for the purpose of accommodating
the public. and where they exercise that power
properly, this Court will always affirm their
authority so to do. There are, however, cer
tain rules to be applied to this case, and upon
which you can base your verdict. When
a corporation takes a passenger, a contract
is entered into by whirls it agrees to convey
that passenger to the point of destination,
and to furnish him or ber with suitable and
proper accommodations. The conductor is to
see that the contract is fairly carried out. The
passenger, on his part, agrees to pay the fare.
He also agrees that he will conduct himself in
an orderly manner while in the car. Even
supposing that a rule of the Company exists,
that no perion shall ride on the platform. it
was the duty of the conductor to furnish this
passenger with n seat. If that was impo4sible,
it was then his duty, if he chose u. taks•
than the regular load, to furnish him with the
best possible accommodations under the eir
cuinstanees, and the passenger was bound to
conduct himself properly. The conductor is
chithifid with [Unpin powir to enforce the rules
of the Company : but when enforcing. a proper
order in a proper case, if lie exc,ed. the force
necessary to accomplish Li , purp,e. k guilty
of an assault and battery.
The Jury returned a Verdict guilty
agaimt the Conductor. Judge Ludlow, in re
ply to a q u.,tion by the counsel for the defend
ant. remarked that this difficulty originated in
a is practice of eondm tin crowd
ing cars in suL I; a ninfint.r, that persons can

conclusive in regard to the Puritan : - 'abtatli,

'rile great difficulty experienced by the
Sahtiatarians, is to reconcile the change
from the seventh day of the week. of the
Ziabbath of Mose, to the modern .Sunday,
or first day.
The address says " for, while the Sabbath,
as I have endeavored to expound it must
have perpetual existence," continues
It is known that we have not in the
Word such express language for the change
of the day, us we have in the original com
mand to keep it ;" and it further says •
„ The authority is contained in certain texts
and paragraphs, and inferred from particu
lar facts and usages." These texts are not
given in the address, but may be found in
the Review articles, before mentioned.—
They are merely influential, and contain
nothing to justify the modern assumptions
that the early Christians regarded the first
day of the week, as in any respect more
holy than the others. The simple truth of
that day being chosen from the others, was,
that the Christians in Rome being nearly all
slaves, were compelled to meet on the Ro
man weekly holiday, des a Sunday.
and that enforced custom became, in time,
quite general ; but not for many centuries
MIS it imagined that any peculiar sanctity
belonged to the first day of the week.
Upon this point I will refer to the ex
tracts attached hereto, containing the dicta
of many of the lights of the churches.-
These have been printed before, but they
cannot too often be read by those who re
ceive their faith at second hand.
While on this subject, 1 may appropriate
ly remark on some expressions in current
use, which are incorrect, and mislead many
thoughtless persons.
The designation, " Sabbath," for Sunday,
is altogether a mistake the term Sabbath,
can only be used with any propriety for the
Seventh day of the week. at Saturday. --
Sunday is the ordinary name of the first day,
and should be used by all who regard cor
rectness of language.
Another error, which I suppose few would
observe, is to speak of the United States as
a Christian nation.
By the Constitution, all religions are toler
ated, and a Mohammedan has equal rights
with a Christian, in defiance of any local
laws.
I have no doubt that a fearless Supreme
Court would pronounce all the Sunday ob
servance laws unconstitutional,—as restrict
ing in their religious freedoms, a large
portion of the citizens, Christians, Jews,
and others.
As the object of this communication was
merely to suggest inquiry and discus
sion, I shall not follow the subject further at
present.

POPULAR ESSAY
ON SYC
DISEASES INCIDENT TO
TRADES AND OCCUPATIONS.
TT is our purpose to write, as briefly as pos
j_ sible, concerning the diseases and disorders incident
to certain occupations, including their causes, symptoms
and mode of cure. We shall do this to plain language,
and in a straightforward way Our purpose is two-fold—
fir.Stly, to give some curious facts not generally known;
and, secondly, to bring more forcibly to view the ready
relief at hand in Radways Rentedies. We frankly avow
that the trouble we are taking is a business transaction,
meant to benefit both the public and ourselves.
The diseases springing from various trades arise either
from the very nature of the occupations, from the ma
terials handled or used, or from both causes. Scarcely
any of these pursuits are necessarily unhealthy, but men
will be as imprudent in their business as in their pleas
ure, and suftr for their neglect of precaution.
Let us look first at those who suffer from poisonous
materials.
Cbppersauths, Brass Blunders, Braeieri and Piatnakers V
From their manipulation of copper and its compounds.
take into their system either the impalpable duet of its
oxides or salts, or their fumes. The result is a copper
disease, whose symptoms may vary more or less in vio
lence sometimes creeping slowly along until the sys
tem is utterly destroyed, or else opening an avenue to
more apparent diseases. The vietom to the copper dis
ease notices, perhaps, on rising in the morning a slightly
acid taste in the mouth, a slight constriction of the
throat, the tongue dry and parched, and sometimes sick
ness at the stomach. He thinks he has caught cold,
and probably takes some advertised expectorant, which
leaves him worse than before. At times there comes an
attack of the colic. If dysentery is at all epidemic, he
is very liable to be attacked, and his tannins and tenes
mos, as the doctors call them, namely, his pain in the
bowels and disposition to iitool.are exceedingly violent_
Often a thirst which he cannot account for, or a distend
ed abdomen, or back stools, slightly streaked with blood,
or an undefinable anxiety, is the commencing symptom
and is scarcely noticed. Cramps sometimes make their
appearance in the limbs and stomach, either alone or
accompanied by some of the symptoms previously enu
merated. A headache at the close of work, or during
the day, is quite common. A preventive of these would
be the use of a respirator, which checks the passage to
the lungs of stomach of the dust or vapor, and gloves,
to keep it from the pores of the skin. A generous diet
should be used, the bowels kept open by tuoderete doses
of Endavofs Rafulating Pills; a dose should be taken in
the morning and evening of Radierty's Ready Relief, and
the use of Raderan's Renovating Resolvent persevered in
until the system is rid of the poison
Type-Founders, Peizterers, Painters, PlamberS and Glaziers
and 11 - orkers in Mantrfatiorie,, or Shot-2bwera,
Are exposed to the lead disease Thia, like the copper
disease, may produce a series of insidious but scarcely
noticed symptoms, ending sometimes paralysis, or more
especially with painters and white-lead makers, in what
is generally called painters' colic. These all, at times,
will notice in their mouth, more particularly at rising, a
sugary and slightly astringent taste, constriction of the
windpipe, pain and uneasiness in the region of the stom
ach, and occasionally nausea. followed sometimes by
vomiting.
C..rh Paintm
Sr those who use much vermillion, will have a ten
dency to Diarrhoea, for, unlike Copper, this shows its ef•
fects more in the small intestines; and the bladder and
urinary passages will be seriously affected, sometimes
merely producing painful urination, and at others,
bloody or high colored urine. The Regulating Pill and
the Re,oli eat must be mainly relied on, and the parties
should never go to work on an empty stomach. For the
more painful symptoms the Ready Relief will be necasa
ry, and will by no means belie its name. It should be
used internally and externally. In painters' colic, the
Rive/Wing Pills should be used to produce a free evaeu
anon. and afterward more moderately, to keep upregu
lar action ; and from the very start. the /trade Relief giv
en in full doses, in flaxseed or slippery-elm tea, orgum
water. The diet'shonld be light, chiefly beef tea, (not
soup,; or chicken broth, from which the fat has
been skimmed. In paralysis. the persistent use of the
Peiu;at,ng Pull:, with the Wendy Real, well and steadily
rubbed into the affected limb or part, for at least fifteen
minutes, three times a day, and a generous. but digest
ible diet, will effect a cure. In all external applications
he palm of the hand is the best to rub With. and a re
made hand. from its softness, should be preferred.
ire liable to PProral severe symptoms. Those who use
murilue of tin sometimes perceive its effects in their
