posed to be a parting salute from Cook, who
left on Monday morning. The fire was re
turned with a general volley, but both par
ties were toodistant to do damage. A com

the fugitives. There are probably a thous

ers into any Suite or locality where they

BALTIMOBE, Oct 18.—An eye witness who
has returned, describes tho scene there as
follows:
The flr«t attack was made by a detach
ment of the Charleston Guards, who crossed
the Potomac River above Harper's Ferry,
and reached the building where the insur
gents were posted, by the canal, on theMa
ryland side. Smart firing followed, and the
rioters were driven from the bridge. One
man was killed and another arrested The
latter tried to escape by swimming the river.
A dozen shots were tired after him and he
partially fell, but rose again, threw his gun
away, and drew his pistols, both ol which
snapped He drew his b»wie knife and cut
away all heavy accoutrements and ran for
the river again. One of the soldiers was
about ten feet behind, when the man turned,
threw up his arras, and cried, 'Don't shio
The soldier fired, and The man fell into the
water with his face blown away. In the
pocket of his coat was found a commission
to Oapt T. Leeman from the Provisional
Government of the United States. The
commssion was da'ed Oct, 15,1859, and
signed A. W, Brown, Commanderin- hief
of the Army of the Provisional Government
of the U. S. A party of five of the insur
gents armed with Minnie rifles, and posted
in the Armory, were expelled by the Charles
ton Guards They all ran forthe river, and
one who was unable to swim was drowned
The other four swam to the rocks in the
middle of the Shenandoah, and fired upon
the citizens and troops assembled upon both
banks.
This drew upon them the muskets of
from 200 to 300 men and not less than 403
shots were fired at them from Harper's Jer
ry, about 200 yards distant. One was shot
dead the second, a negro, attempted to
jump over the dam, but fell shot, and was
not see after. The third was badly wound
ed, and remaining, was taken. The white
insurgent wounded and captured died iu a
few miuutes in the arms of our informant.—
He was shot in the breast, arm and stomach.
He declares that there were only 19 whites
engaged in the insurrection. For beveral
hours a running and random fire was kept
up by the troops against the rioters, several
of whom were shot down while many man
aged to limp away wounded. During the
firing, the women and children ran shreiking
in all directions, but when they learned ihat
the soldiers were their protectors, they took
courage and did good service in the Tray of
preparing refreshments and taking care of
the wounded. Our informant, who was on
the hill when the firing was going on, says
the tetrific scenes of a battle passed in reali
ty before him..
Soldiers could be seen pursuing singly and
in companies, and the crack of the musket
or rifle was generally followed by one or
more of the insurgents biting the dust. The
dead lay in the streets where they fell. The
wounded were cared for.
Capt Brown's wounds consist of a sword
cut in the forehead and a bayonet wound in
the kidneys. It is reported that many of
the r.oters are secreted in the mountains. A
negro named Green. Who was conspicuous
in the Fugitive Slave Riot at Harriaburg
some years since, was aiding the insurgents.
STILL LATER.
BALTIMORE, Oct 19th The following
important intelligence from Harper's Ferry
has just been received
Last evening a detachment of marines, ac
companied by some of the volunteers, made
a visit to Capt. Brown's house. The first
visit was to the School house. They found
a large quantity of blankets, boots and shoes,
clothes, tents, and 15J0 pikes with ladders
affixed, and twenty discolored documents,
throwing much light on the affair,—among
them the printed constitution and bylaws of
the organization, showing or indicating a
ramification throughout the various States of
the nion. They also found letters from va
rious individuals at the North—one from
Fred. Douglass, containing $10 for the cause
also a letter fo Garrit Smith about money
matters and a draft for one hundred dollars
endorsed by a Cashier of a Ne York Bank
whose name is not recollected.
All these documents are in possession Gov.
Wise. The Governor has offered a reward
of $1,000 for the capture of Cook, one of the
principal insurrectionists. A large number
of men are now scouring the mountains in
search of him.
The following is the anonymous letter re
ceived by Secretary Floyd, of which mention
has been made:
CINCINNATI. Aug 20th, 1859.
S I —I have received information of a
movement of so great importance, that I feel
it to be my duty to impart it to you without
de.ay. I have discovered the existence ot a
select secret association, having for its object
the liberation of slaves at the South, by a
insurrection.
The leader of the movement was old John
Brown, of Kansas. He has been in Canada
during the summer, directing negroes theie,
and they are only awaiting his word to assist
the slaves. They have one of their men—a
white man, I think—in an armory in Mary
land.
Where it is situated41 am not able to learn.
As soon as everything is ready those of the
number who are in the Northern States and
Canada, are to eome in small companies to
the rendezvous which is in the mountains in
Virginia. They will come down through
Pennsylvania and Maryland, and enter Vir
ginia at Harper's Ferry. Brown left the
North about three or four weeks ago, and
will arm the negioes and strike the blow, in
a few weeks, so that whatever is done most
be done at ones. They have a large quanti
fy of arms at their rendezvous and are prob-
ably distributing them already. As I am not
fully in their confidence, this is all the infor
mation I can give yeu. I dare net sign my
name to this, bat trait you will not disregard
the warning on that account.
Prof. Lyman Peek, for himself and others
addresses a communication to Mr. Giddinga
and several members of the "Christian anti
slavery movements," which closes in the
following style
1. That the Bible is pro-sUvery beyond
a respectable doubt, and chat no honest, fair
construction of its language can make it
otherwise.
"2. Those pretended friends of freedom,
who believe the bible to be the most indu
bitable authority that settles and deter,
mines all questions of human liberty and
human welfare, arei how and ialWays/ have
been liberty's most potent, most dangerous,
because most insidous foe*."
So they go! Rank infidelety, and a war
with the Bible is to be the final landing of
all who keep within the pale of genuine
Republicanism —Cin. Enquirer.

IIUROR.
CHICAGO, Oct. 24.
The Detroit papers bring us brief par
ticulars of the loss of the propeller Troy,
with probably eighteen out of twenty-six of
her craw and passengers. She foundered
in a tremendous sea on Tuesday night last,
when ten miles off Poit aux Barques. The
passengers and crew numbered in all twen
ty-six. Finding she was sinking, three
men launched a yawl and got in. It proved
to be unseaworthy, and leaked so badlv that
it was with great difficulty they could* keep
it from sinking. In this frail boat, and in a
heavy sea, they drifted across Lake Huron,
and landed about seven o'clock on Wednes
day night, twelvemilebelow Goodrich.
OCT" We like to see a man refuse to take
his local paper, and all the time sponge upon
his neighbor for the reading of his. We
like to hear a man complain when you ask
him to subscribe for his home paper, that
he takes more papers than he can read now,
and then go around and borrow his neigh
bor's home paper to read W like to hear
a man run down his home paper as not worth
taking, and every now and then ge, or send
to the editor, for some favors in the editorial
column. We do like to see a merchant or
mechanic refuse to advertise in his home pa
per, and strive to get a share of tho trade
the paper brings to the town by advancing
its interests, as good newspapers always do.
But above all things we like to see one of
your rich, miserly men, who cannot pay two
dollars for a newspaper, but can always man
age to be about in time to read the paper at
the expense of a friend, not worth the tenth
part of what he is. It looks so economical
and thrifty.—Like C.ty Tribune.

From the EiUorU Prtfaee.
A man nay not' only take his own life,"
bjr writing his Autobiography, without com
mitting felo de te, but may carry himself into
future time, by producing a book which the
world will not willingly let die. This is what
Mr. Bobert-Houdin, the greatest artist in what
is called Conjuring, has lately done in the re
markable book Cmfidenet$ d'un Prutiqiteur, a
faithful translation of which is here presented
to the American reading public. The work
has had the greatest success in Europe, from
its lively style as well as from the various in
formation it contains, historical and philo
sophical. On th* practice and principles of
sleight-of-hand, and the other details, mental
as well as mechanical, which unite to malm
perfect the exhibition of White Magic, the an
tipodes of what our forefathers knew, perse
cuted, and punished as the BlachUtrt.
From the Wtttminitter Review.
Without any sarcastic intention, we might
show that the Conjurer was really a man of
gn
reater ability than many a successful author,
the whole we can recommend these Me
moirs of Robcrt-Hondin's as pleasant reading."
