The recent tragedy at Harper's FeriY,'
--from-its origin to its fatal termination, is
Vrithont a parallel-for , absurdity and insane
fanaticism, 'affording neither excuse nor
justification ; and although 'the Madness
which characterized the whole movement,
must convince every unprejudiced mind that
the actors were monomaniadis, still, the of
. fair is much to 'be lamented from the in. •
creased bitterness which it will engenderin
the South against the North, and the pretext
it will afford certain parties in Pennsylvania
to make political capital out of
We believe all parties alike condemn it, .
and the Republican arty is second to no
other, in its opposition to any line of policy...
thativotild create such an outrage. The Re
pnbliCan party is emphatiCally conservative: •
They seek no war against. the rights of the
Southern States ; basing their action on the
provisions of the Federal Constitution, they
are ready to adopt all legal means to. pre.
vent the spread of slavery into the Territories
of the United States, and when they have
accomplished that object their mission is
ended. • The men therefore, whp, to build
up theie political fortunes, Would attempt to
hold the Republican party answerable for .
the mad pranks of crazy abolitionists, are as
alsurdly - wicked as the misguided Men who
planned and carried out the Harper's Ferry
outrage. .
THE DARPEWS • voitint TRAGEDY
Isi t tDE Details.
.VhosOlowinedindensed narrative of the
?went outbreak at Harper's Ferry is taken
trent the repeat:li an eye-witness.
The principal originator' of the phort, but
'bloody existence of this insurrection was, un.:
.doubtedly Captain :Jahn Brown. whose con
seetion with the scenes of violence in the bor.
vier warfare - of Kansas then made his name fa
miliarly notorious to thewbole country; Brown
made his first appearance in the vicinity of
-Harper's Ferry more than a year ago, accom
panied by hie two sone, the whole party as.
• ensuing the name - of Smith. He inquired a
bout lart4 in the vicinity, and made investiga
tions about the probability of finding ores,
and for some time boarded at Sandy Point, a
stile east of the Ferry.
Atter - an absence of some months, he re-ap.
:peered in the vicinity, and the elder Brown
wanted or leased a farm on the Maryland side,
about four miles from the Ferry. They bought
.ob large. number of picks and spades and this
confirmed he belief that they intended to
search for ores. They were aeon frequently .
in and about Idarper'a Ferry, but no suspi.
- oleo seemed to have existed that Bill Smith"
Was, Captain Brown, or that ho intended em
barking in any move soperilous and extraor
dinary. Yet the developement'of the plot
leaves MO doubt that hie visit to the Ferry, and
Mileage of the farm were all parts of his pre
, oration for the iosurreotion, which he sup
posed would be suocoeeful in exterminating
'slavery in Maryland and Western Virginia.
• Brown's chief aid was John E. Cook, a com
paratively young man, who has resided in and
near the Ferry for some yearn. He was first
employed in tending a lock on 'the canal, at
Simard, taught achoel on the Maryland aids
of the Silver, and,.after a brief absence' in .
Hanes, where Ude 'supposed het became.ao.
;painted with Itrown..roturned to the Ferry,
and mairied there. He was
„regarded as 'a
saws of 'some intelligence, known to be anti
slavery, but not no violent in" the expression
of his opinion as to excite any' attention...:-.
'These two men, with Troin'e two /one, were •

and all the negrods within reach being forced

All these - Movements , seem.-to have been
made -without exciting, the slightest. alarm in
the town, nor did-tlie detention' of Copt.
Phelps' train at the upper end of town attract
attention. It was not until the town, thor
oughly waked up and found the bridge guar
ded by armed men, and a guard stationed at
all the avenues, tluit the people Igntiti they
(were prisoners. A panic appears to have bit
atediatelys ensued.. and the number of insur
rectionists at once increased' rom fifty (which
was 'probably their greatest, force, including .
the slaves who were fera,td to join) to from
five to six hundred.- . . .

r In the meantime a number, of workmen,
knowing nothing-of-whathad-diappened,,en,
tared the armory, and were snccesaively ta
ken pritioners,'until they Mid at one - limn not
leas than sixty men confined in the armory.
Among/those thus entrapped.s.were - Artnisted

three gentlemen were imprisoned in the eri :
gine
. house, (which afterwards became the
chief largest; of- the insurgents,) and were not
relensed until after the final assault. The
workmen Were imprisoned in a large building
farther down the yard, and were rescued by a
brilliant Zounve dash made by the railroad
company's men, who came down - froth Mar- .
tinsburg. This was the condition of affairs
at daylight. about which time Capt. Cook.
with two white Men, rind accompanied by SO
slaves, and taking with them Col 'Washing-.
ton's large wagon, went over the bridge and
struck up the mountain, on-the road towards
Pennsylvania.
It was then believed that the" large wagon
was used to convey thopayniatiter's safe, coax
taining_l7.ooo Government funds, nion - that it
was filled with Minnie rifles, taken out to sup
ply other bands in the mountains, •who were
to come down - upon Harper's Ferry in over
whelming force. • There suppositione - both
Proved untrue, as neither money nor arms
werii - dieturbed. At the.beginning of the fight
genethl warfare commenced, chiefly led ori
;by a man named Chambers, whnee house
commanded the" armory. yard. • .
The colonic! man. Hayward, a railroad por- -
ter, was shot early in the morning. for refus
ing to join the movement. .The next nuts
shat. way Joseph-Bueleyin citizen of-the-Ferry.
fie was shot Mending in his own door.
bout this tinao, Samuel I'. Young, Esq., was
killed, while coining into town on horseback.
The ineurrectioniste,,by this time finding a
general disposition to resist them, had nearly
all-withdrawn within
.the armory grounded
leaving only a guard
.on the bridge. About
noon the Charleston troops, under command
of Colonel Robert W Baylor, having crossed
the river some - distance up, marched dOwn on
the Maryland aide to the mouth of the bridge,
firing a volley. 'they Made a galleat dash
across the bridge, clearing it of the 'Maur
gents.fwho retreated rapidly down towards the
armory. - In this movement, one of the insur
rectionists; William Thompson, was. taken
prisoner. The Sheplierdetown troops next
arrived, marching down the Shenandoah aide
and joining the Charleston forces :at' the
bridge.
A desultory exchange of idiots followed. one
of which struck Mr, , Fountain Beckham, may
or of the town and agent of the 11. & 0 It; It.
Co., in the ,brealit..pasiiing entirely through
his body. The ,ball: was a large elongated
slug, making a frightful wound. fie died al
moat immediately. Beckham was with Out
arms, and was exposed only for a moment
whilst approaching the water station. His
assailant, one of Brown's sons, wee shot al—
most itatuediately., but managed ; to get back.
into the engine hinise,,where hie dead body*
was .found today. The murder of Mr. Beck
ham excited the populace, and a cry ilne iin-
mediately raised to bring out the prisoner
Thompson.. lie wan brought out on the
bridge and shot down from it. lie fell into
the water, and aome -appearance of life still
remaining, he was riddled with balls.
Sharp lighting ensued, and at this time a
general charge was made down the street,
from the bridge toward the armory gate, by
the Charlestown and Shepherdatown troops
and the Ferry people from behind the armory
wall. A fuailade was kept - and returned by
the insurgents from the armory buildings.—,
Whilst this was going Ott the Martinsburg
levies arrived at the upper end of the town,
and entering the armory'grounda at the rear,
made an attack from• that aide."( This force
was largely composed of railroad employees,
gathered from the tonnage trail at Martins
burg, and their attack was generally spoken
of as showing the greatest amount.of fighting
pluck exhibited during the day. Melling on,
firing and cheering, and gallantly led on by
Captain Alburtis, they carried the building in
which the armory men were imprisoned, and
released the whole of them. They were, howii.
ever, but poorly armed, some with pistols and
others with shot guns. and when they came
within range of the engine house, where the.
elite of the insurreotionists were gathered,
and•becatne exposed to their rapid and dex.
terous use of Sharp's rifles, they were compell-
. -
ed to fall book, suffering pretty eeverely.---
Conductor Evan Dorsey; of - Baltimore, was
killed instantly, and Conductor -George'Rich
urdson received a wound, from which he died
during the day. Several others were 'wound
ed during the day, among them a eon of Dr.
Hammond, of Martinsbrirg.
A guerilla warfare was maintained during
the rest of. the day, resulting in killing two
of the insurrectionists and -the wounding of a
third.. One crawled out through the culvert
leading into the Potomac, and attempting to
cross to the Maryland side, whether to escape
or to convey information to Cookie not known
lie wait shot while crossing the river, and fell
dead on the rooks. An adventurous lad wa-
ded out and secured hie flbarp's rifle, and his
body was afterwarda !stripped of a portion of
its clothing.. In one of his pockets was found
ii• captain's commission, draWn up Id - full
form. and declaring that the bearer, Capt.
Lehman, bald' oom,nand under Major. General
Brown.
A light mullatto was ,sho s t just outside of
lie armory - gate. The ° ball went through his
break tearing away all .the . great arteries,
and killing him instantly. - ..Hie name is not
known; but be is one of the free negroes who
came with Brown. his body was left in the
street up to noon yesterday, exposed to every
indignity,that could be heaped upon it by the
excited populace. At this time a tall, power
rut man,•, named Evan Stephens, came out
from the armory, conducting some prismiers,
irwas said he was shot.twice in.the side and
breast, lie was captured and taken to s ta
vern, and after the ihsurrection was quelled,
was turned over to the United States' auditor--

courage of the observer, at the Malakoff of
the.insur ) gents--- - wait the established oiler of
night seeing, varied with the discussion of all
sorts of terrible rumors: •
THE FORT OF THE INSURGENTS
The'building in which the insurgents had
mode a stand was a fire-engjne house. and,'
no doubt, the Most defensible building in the
armory It has dead brick walls on the three
sides, and the fourth has large doors, with
Window sashes above, some • eight feet aboie
the ground.
A dead stillness - liiiitninded the buildings
and, except that now and clien t 's man might
be peen peopingfrom the nearly plotted centre
door,t-und a dog's nose slightly protruding,
no sign of life, much less of hostility was
giVen.
.Various opinions were given as to the MlTl
ber of persons within and tlie amount of re'
sistunce they would be able to offer. Cannon
could, not he used without endangering the
safety of Col .Washington, Mr. Dangerfield,
Mr.. Ball, nod other citizens, whom-they still
held as prisoners The doors nod walls of the
building .had been pierced
. for rifles, but it
was evident that from these holes no rouge
could be had, and that without opening the
'door they would - be shooting in the dark.
The tnurder oft he prisoners held was thought
by ninny, lobe determined upon. and then a
fight to the death as an ending of their daspe.
rate attempt. •
. Whil4 the people thus looked t and 'Tamils
ted,-the (loot was•thrown open., and one of the
men came out a tlag,of truce, and deliv
aced what wan supposed to be tertne.of cep.
imitation. The continuance:of the
.prepara

accepted.

Shertly after neven o'clock, Lieut, J. B. B.
Stuart, of the First Cavalry, elm was acting
as sid fer. Col. Lee, advahced to parley with
the besieged. Samuel Strider, Evq , nn old and
respectable citizen, bearing a flag of truce.
They were received at the door by Capt Cook,
Lieut. Stuart demanded an unconditional sur
render, only promising them protection from
immediate violence and trial by law Captain
BrOwn refuSed, all terms, but those previously
demanded, Which were, substantially that they
should le permitted to march out with their
men and arms, taking their prisoners with
them; that they should proceed unpursued to
the second toll-gate, when they weuld, free
their prisoners The soldiers would then be
permitted to pursue them, and they would
fight if they could not escape. . .
Of course this was refused, and Lieut..qtu
art pressed upon Brown his, desperate posi
tion, and urged a surrender. The : expostula
tion..though beyend earshot, was evidently
very earnest, and the coolness of the. Lieut..
and the courage of his aged flag-beaier won
warm praise.
At this moment the interest of the scene was
most intense The volunteers were arranged
all around the building, cutting off all escape
in every direction. The marines, divided in
two squads, were ready far a dash at the
door. Finally. Lieut. Stuart, having exhaust:'
ed all argument, with the determined Captain
Brown, walked slowly from the door. brute
dintely the signal for attack was given, and
the marines, headed—by .Colonel Harris and
Lieut Green, advattedik in two lines on each
side of the door. Two powerful fellows sprung
between the lines, and. with bekyy l eledge ham
mers, attempted to battei down. the doors.
The dobra swung and swayed, but appeared
to 1.3`1s secured with evolve, the spring of which
deadened the effect of the blow.
Failing thus to obtain a bread', the marines
were ordered to fall back, and twenty of theni
then took .hold of a ladder, some forty feet
long. and advancing at a run. brought it with
tremendous effect against the door At the
second blow, one leaf falling inwards iDalant
leg position, the marines immediately advanc
ed to the breach. Major Russel and Lieut Green

firing from the interior was rapid and sharp.
Thoy'fired with deliberate aim, and, for tt mo
ment, the resistance was serious and desperate
enough to excite the spectators to something
like a pitch of phrently. The — tirft moment
the marines poured in, time firing ceased, and
the, work was done, whilst cheers rang from
every side, the general feeling belktg that the
marines. had done their part admirably.
When tile insurgents were brought out,
some dead and others "wounded, they were,,
greeted with execrations, and only the pre.
'cautions that had been taken saved them from

OUR COUNTY COMMISNIONER.
...Then the Bst urn,,Judges of thii county met
and declared that Mr. Goigas..,lvas elected,
'County Commissioner, over Mr. Waggoner, by
eatijerity of four voles. we thtiught the sloe
lien for 18G9 was over, but it seems we were
mistaken, It is alleged - by soine,.thet there
is an error- in the tally papers of the Monroe
district . , which, when corrected, will elect Mr,
Waggoner by one vote., The'tally list, on the
Commissioner's vote; foot up 112 for Mr. Gas'-
gas, which are carried out 177; if the number
should be but 172, and Mr. Waggoneee vote
Is 108, it would give but 280 votes in the ag
gregate for Commissioner, anti would elect
' Mr. Waggoner by one of a.mejority. But the
"elllcial vote dhows that foethe State Officers
and s e.fiiitor. 284 votes w ere polled, and
-Most probable that the 4ally.paper is five"
marks abort, and that Gorges is elected by the
majority as staledby the official returns.
However,. the matter now can only be de
cided by the, Court, and Mr. Gorges, bolding
the certificate orelection, hiss been sworn into
office, so as to afford Mr. Waggoner an oppor
tunity of having the matter investigated at the
November term; .
