TOR CONAPIRACY.—hIany of the Southern
people seem to think that Brown's foray on
Harper's' Ferry, was the result of an extemi
sive conspiracy at the ,North. The idea in•
tended to be conveyed by the alarmists, is
that these aideril and abottors" 'aro whit e
men; and a list of names is given, that were
found among Brown's papers. 'ln this list,
two names occur of - persons to 0 call on" from
Carlisle, viz Isaac J. White, (Whiten ?)anil
Wm. Burgess. Both of those men are col
ored, one of them being a• barber, and the
other a local preacher. If 'the list was fol
.-lowed up, it would, 'doubtless, be Seen, that
Brown's " sympathizers". generally, are to'be
- found among the colored population, from
.whom little 4ar is to be apprehended, and,
- that few white men .Nork.h,.baya had anything
to do with hie object. -
GEItRITT SMITH.
The democratic papers assert„thatGerritt
Smith, who is to some extent implicated
with John Brown, the ledder of the Harper's
Ferry . Insurrection, is a "Republican ex:
member of Congress." The dennierats well
know, if they had the honesty to acknowledge
it, that Gerritt Smith never was a Republi

When he was elected to Congress he ran as
an' independent candidate. When the Kan.
sas•Nebraska bill was being pressed through
Congress, he refused to co operate with the
Republican' members of the House.in delay

Mr. Bartfing, the States Attorney, asked
that the .Court might assign counsel fur the

The. Court inquired if the prisoners had
counsel, when Brown addressed the: Court as
follows:

at the tithe I was 'taken. I 'did not ail to

that

The Court' assigned Charles J. Faulkner
and Lawrence Botts as counsel for the pri•
loners.
Harding then add - ressed Rrown; and
uskea him U lie ivas willing to accept Messrs.
Faulkner and Butts as'counsel.
Brown replied—l wish to say that I have

before, I do hot care anything aboutcounsel.
It -unnecessary to trouble any gentleman'
with that duty.
Mr: Harding—You are to have a fair.trial.

Mr. Mats was one of them, who declined act.

it. I cannot remember whether he was the

I am a stranger here; I do not know the din.

•ed ; I have applied for counsel of my own,
and doubtless could bare 'them, if I am not,
as I said before, to be hurried to,execution
before they can reach here. But if that is
the disposition that is to be made of me, all
this trouble and expense can be saved.
Mr. Harding—The question is, do you ae•
sire the aid of Messrs. Faulkner and Botts as
your counsel? Please to answer yes or no.
BrOwn—l cannot regard this as an exam•
Infitioll under any circumstances. I would
prefer that they should exercise their own
pleasure. I feel as if' it was a matter of very
little account to me. If they had designed
to assist me as counsehl should have wanted
an opportunity to consult them at my. leisure.
•• Mr. Harding—Stevens, are you willing
thut these gentlemen should net as your
counsel?
Stevens—l itin' willing that that gentleman
shall (pointing to Mr. Butts.)
Mr. Hard ing:—Do you object to Mr. Faulk

Stevens-No, I -am willing to take both.
Mr. Harding then .addressed each of the
other prisoners separately, and each stated
his willingness to be defended by the counsel
named. °
The Court issued a peremptory order that
the press should not publish the detailed tea
timony, as it would render the getting of a
jury before-the-Circuit-Court-impossible.-
Lewis-Washingtonythe first witness, stated
that about 1 o'clock on Sunday night he was
asleep and awoke by a noise, and heard his
name called. He went down, and was Huy:
rounded by six men. Stevens appeared to
be in command .; Cook ) Cop Pie and the two
negro prisoners were along, and another
white man whom he afterwards. recognized
as Kagi. Col. Washington then proceeded
'to detail all the particulars of his being taken
as a prisoner with his negroes to the armory,
end the subsequent events up to the attack
by the marines, and their delivery.
A. M. Kitzmiller gave the particulars of
hie being taken prisoner and locked up, and
that subsequently he had several interviews
with Brown, who always treated them with a
'great deal of respect and.courtesy. He en
deavored to ascertain' front Brown what ob
jeet they had in view, and he repeatedly told,
him in reply that his only object was to free.
the slaves, and
men
he was willing to fight
the pro-slavery men to accomplish that ob
ject.
Armistead Ball, testified to the particulars
of his arrest by the ieselieists, and said that
he had an interview, after his arrest, with
Brown, - who stated that he had comefor no
child's
. play, and was prepared to carry out
hie designs; that his object Was not to make
war against the — pet t eed they would not
be injured if they remained' quiet: His
ject was to plebe United States arms in . the
hands of the black nlen, and proposed to free
all the-slaves in the-vicinity.
john 'Aletadt, one of the slue owners who
- Wits'brOught into the armory With his slaves,

After consulting Brown, Mi. Botts said that

The Court requested Mr. Green to act-as

.." To F._ l .T. Faulkner and Luivion Bull.,
Chariest()fi' , n,• lie.—John Brown, leader of
the insurrection at Harper's Ferry, and sev
oral .of his family, have resided inAbis county
Ihr many years. Ins Unity in hereditary in
that family. His mother's sister died with
and a daughter of that fluidly has been
two years in the lunatic asylum. A son and
daughter of his 'mother t; brother have also
been , eOntincd - Ju the lunatic asylum, and
another sun of that brother is now insane,
and under close restraint. These facts can
be conclusively proven by witnesses residing
here, who will doubtless' 'attend the trial, i
desired. [Signed,] A. U. LEWIS."
, -The telegraph operator of the Akron office,
Wm. C. Allen, adds to the lame dispatch
that A. a Lewis is a resident of that place,
and his statements aro entitled to implicit
credit. •
Mr. Botts said, that on receiving the above
dispatch, he' went to the jail withhis assn.
.ciater Mr. Green, and ren,.firib Brown, - and
he was desired by th e latter to - say : that in
his father's family there has never been ony
insanity at all, On his mother's side thtre
have been repeated instances of it.
Brown also desired his counsel -hat he
does not put in any plea of insanity, and if
he has ever been at alhinsaue, ho is totally
unconscious of,it. Yet he 'adds that those
who are most insane, generally suppose that .
they have more reason and sanity than those
around them. For himself, he disdains to
put in that plea, and seeks nu immunity of
that kind.
After argument on both sides, the court
refused to .postpone the trial, and the Die

swore to the , identity of the prisoner at the
bar, they; had failed to recognize hint previous
:ly Wfie - ii — iiiifiingfho jail foe.fhnt purpose . .
Mr. Copeland testified that he had seen the
prisoner-at•-llarpor'S Ferry, with. blanket and
rifle, and on one occasion during the day, he.
had seen the flash from his rifle, but from

F. Watts,• Ettg , appearetTam-s i ounsel for the
State of Virginia, and took the ground that if
a crime lied been committed, of which there
was clear proof, and the prisoner was aparti.
crps erintini.i, the Judge, as a committing wag
: 18trali 0 under the Conetituthin of .the State,
should.take care that ho did not escape pun
ishment.. That he was a portieres. criminals,
was clearly 81101,11 by three witnesses. it
had also been shown that he was pursuist
and when taken was armed:with weapons .
identical with those found in the hands of the
invaders.
Messrs. Sharp, Shearer and Miller, 6,r the
prisoner, contended that the yd'oof of identity
was net sufficient to warrant the Judge in de
livering prisoner up to the-custody of the
authorities of Virginia. That the requisition
,claimed a man named .Albert Hazlett, and no
evidence had been shown to prove that this.
Was Albert Hazlett . , and therefore asked the
Judge to discharge the prisoner, or at Jen 4.
commit him on his own wfirrautt, to the custo
dy of the Sheriff, until fulOprouf of his ideu•
tity could be obtained. •
Judge Gruham said: "Wo,are clearly of thu
opinion that the requisition presented to us
is legally find_furipally right ; but titer's is no
evidence that we have any man it; our custody
named Albert Ilazktt,,whom we can deliver
on the requision.
But n greet wrong has been comtnitted, and
sufficient evidence has been shown, to give
strong ground of suspicion that thepriioner
at the bar participated in it."
The prisoner was therefore committed for a
re-hearing, by his honer,,with notice that the
o tie could not be - heard until after the Novem
ber term. .
rnii :—On Saturday afternoon, about
4 o'clock, kfire broke out in the frame buil

The firenien - werer soon - onAm - Iround; and
succeeded in saving the building, although.,
owing to the light material of which it was
composed, it is 'very much datangell.' Mr.
Kutz had clover-hullers, stook and tools, o
the amount of about thirteen hundred dollars,
'which was o❑ destroyed, but is partly cov
ered by insurance,. Mr.-John Niffeher; who
occupied the upper story sea carpenter shop,
suffered a small lose, but limo most valuable
part of his tools wero saved; ,
It isk not known how the fire originated.—
Mr. [Lutz was not at work In the afternoon,
and When ho left the shop about 8;o'olook,
there was - very little, if any fire in llte stove.
At the time the fire broke out. there was
no ono at work iu the building. 'Two
things were fully 'demonstrated by this fire;
the, 'advantages of efficient fire companies, and
a plentiful supply of water. • Twelity years
age:, that shop Would have burned, down, from
inability to manage the fire, and perhaps ta
