On the 1st of July the attorney general will make some changes in his department, and upon that date unuie of the Democrats in ollice under Mr. Miller will have to go.

There is no more objection to poking a bit of wisdom In between a man's ribs than pounding It in through bis skull, An exchange publishes an article entitled, "How to cure snorine," the gist of which seems to be, "don't snore."

The Brand rush to Oklahoma was something almost inexplicable. Had there been a stirring attraction thliiier, as the discovery ot gold In large quantities would have been, the Hxolleiiieiit might bear lair explanation, but there was nothing of the sort, not oven a yarn or hoax to arouse to madness. The army ot immigrants seem to have gone crazy over a very common-pi ace boom, It is an old story now and raiders have had ample time and a wide opportunity to repent at leisure. Hundreds found themselves penniless and worse oil' than ever before in their lives, anc those who were successful in obtaining the cageriy-sougbt-for lands, settled down, like the man who bought the elephant, toeonteinplate a big disappointment. There is nothing it can be compared to, unless it is the panio or revolution which suddenly takes plane, at times, in the human system, We know not the why or the wherefore, but all at once one may bo doubled up with pains and aches; a pain in every limb, joint nnd inu-ele; an acme agony which produces a punio in mind ami body, and it Is only when the tumult of misery is cHlmed by a Koothing cure that we resize hat tlin Hiilforing ha ben.

There are hundreds to-oay in Oklahomain just this condition. The punio is over; an uumi-avured Impulse hss spent itoell'j 1 tie mind rc ll'-els and the body sulferB hy reliction.

In fucli punlos of the body, howtver, there are examples for guidance, hlch at once show a potent menu of relief. For instance: Mr.

who says, Aug. 0, 1888: "I suffered four years with a trained baek, and had to use a cane, tint one bottle of St. Jacob's Oil completely cured me and I have had no return of pain in six months." There is at least a safeguard for misery of this sort, whatever may be the disappointments and losses of the panic, and even these may bear future fruit in the development of a great state, which was grasped at with such impetus. springdalo, Iowa, said under dato of Mk mi HUB 7treS Stiffness tt8py mm ecfcS9Eiess AT Pltl-OilISTS AND Pfll.TWI. fill CHARLES A.

I do not Bay this in criticiHiu, but at) natural fact of tho oociimIod. None of tho party ever doubted tho character of tho punlsnniont, or tho legal claims that would bo enforced ou their poiMODH. Owen Urown, liarclay Coppoc and F. J. Merriam wore left at tho Kennedy farm to guard tho arms and stores, consisting of 170 Sharp's cavalry carbines, the saino number of Allen revolvers, with 950 pikes, 20,000 cartridges, percussion-cans, Sharp's primers, a keg of powder, some tools, a sword, and a small clie.it of medicines, lint, with tho carpet-big of papers.

These tilings wero moved in tho aiorning to a selioolliou.se, three-quarters of a milo from tho Terry. The rest of tho party marched to tho Ferry. Before starting, a council was held, and among other things, Captain lirowu addressed them, closing with theso words: "And now, gentlemen, let nie impress this one thing upon our minds. You all know how dear life is to you, and how dear your life is to your friends. And in remembering that, consider tint the lives of others are as dear to them as yours are to you.

Do not, therefore, take tho life of any one, if you can possibly avoid it; but if it is necessary to tako life in order to save your, then make sure work of it." After tho arrival at and capture of tho Ferry by the twenty men who went there Oshorn P. Anderson is my authority for the details given, though they wero continued in 1800 by Barclay Coppoc and Frank J. Merriam, when we celebrated the Fourth ot July over the grac of Capt. lirowu. Stevens, Leary and Green returned to tho Ferry after tho capture of Col.

Washington. No firing occurred ou the night of the attack, nor until the early morning of the 17th, when tho detention of the night train caused the accidental shooting of llayward, a colored porter. At sunrise, Tidd, Leeman, Cook and fourteen slaves who had joined, were sent to the Kennedy farm, to assist Owen Brown in the removal of the arms. William Thompson was afterward sent, to accelerate the movement. It was not until noon of the 17th that the militia attacked Capt Brown.

They met with a warm reception: and the light soon grew hot. Six of the men were assigned to the arsenal, as many to the lille-works, and the balance were at the engine-house and the bridge. William Thompson was captured upon litem pt-ing to re-enter the works, shot, carried into Foulke's hotel, then dragged out and thrown oyer the bridge, where his body was riddled as it lay in the watsr. Uook was with the body who had been left at the farm and sehoollioiiso. Hence their escape.

Ilazlett and O. 1'. Anderson, after seeing their four companions slain at the arsenal, where they; had been stationed, gotout by the back and on tho raiiroad, and thou were able to cross the Shenandoah. A citizen whom they took prisoner declared that1 at least fifty persons had been killed in the fighting at the ritlo-works and arsenal. Captain Brown, with the re-remains of his party, was then besieged in the engine-house.

Ilazlett and Anderson were toward dark on tho 17th, pursued by a small body of militia, but by rapid firing droye them rway and effected their escape. Kagi was killed at the rille-works. Cope-land was captured there. Three slave-men, who fought with them wero killed. Kagi's body lay on a rock for nearly thirty hours, and was during that time, wantonly, almost shot to pieces by the infuriated citizens and soldiers.

It was, with others, buried in a shallow grave by the river bank. Charles Plummet' Tidd. unable to reenter Harper's Ferry alter completing his work at the Kennedy farm, succeeded in joining Owen Brown's party. With them he made his way to Western Pennsylvania, where ho lived till the war broke out. Cook, while seeking food, was recapt ured, taken to Virginia, tried there and hung, with Edwin Coppoc, on the 16th cf Owen Brown and Barclay Coppoc made their way to Northern Ohio, where in Ashtabula county, John Brown, with Jason and Kuih and Henry Thompson, were living on small farms.

Ilazlett and Anderson soon separated. Tho latter was aided to Canada by colored friends. Merriam was sent to Cliam-bersburg by Owen Brown, and through the aid of a New York Tribune correspondent got on a train. A report of his death was sent out, to cover his escape to Canada. Barclay Coppoc remained in Ohio for some months, and then returned to bis Iowa home, Richard Kealf furnished the funds for his journey, lie also gave Tidd some assistance.

Behind them, in prison and awaiting execution, wero Capt. Brown, John E. Cook, Edwin Coppoc, Aaron D. Stevens and Albert Ha.lett, with John A. Copeland and Shield Green, colored.

I note as an interesting fact, that a brother of Copeland was one of the half-dozen men of who were commissioned, during the latter part of the civil war, as military oflicer. Ho was, at my instance, and Major-general Samuel B. Curtis's request, made a lecond-lieuteiiant of artillery, in a light battery raised in Kansas, manned and commanded bv colored men. Mtown, not "baturdivy," November 7, 1 Mr. Hunter but tho day bono, Novembor i.

Mr. Hunter further iy, that Capt. Brown had previously 1 qiiiuHcod in tho appointment by tho urt (Judge Barker) of Messrs. Botts i Grooii as his lawyers. 1 can givo to dr.

Hunter thu reason why there was a liungo in Capt. Brown's manner after iloyt arrived. Let mo then say that it is uiitruo that John Brown ever in tho Idea of ids speedy trial and sedition as an "Insurrectionist." To tvo done so would have been moral nd personal ignoring of his own posi-1011, and that is ono on which a truo timatoof his character very largely '1 'imrds. Ho held that tho sluve-hoUf- olders wero in rebellion against tho rit of our laws and the Interest of tho l'nion. Besides, ho was not a citizen Virginia, and could not commit icasoii by nn insurrection.

Under tho en laws of Virginia, the ofl cinders in insurrection could bo indicted ithln live days, Immediately tried, id after sentence bo executed within lu eo days. It was an attempt to carry ut this process that John Brown resisted. It will bo borno ii mind that the captain sought to im-iiress upon the minds of his prisoners .1 the terry that ho was not thero to aid or to plunder, but to liberate. He Mt that his motives must bo eompre-n'lidod, in order, if ha got off to tho mountains, that ho might secure tho moral force of tho feelings that would issuredly be aroused on behalf of the laves who were seeking their freedom. tVhcu lie failed and was a prisoner, ho i lt no less indeed, evon more strong-, the need of setting forth his moves and methods.

Ho never doubted 1 at would be tho result to himself. Ho ''lused any plea, such as that of insau-iy, which tended to save his own life, ''ut ho wanted more time, in order to live long enough to convince tho liioughtful and liberty-loving as to ho really desired. Tho astute inilers on the other side desired Him to bo t.Ji7icted and hung as swift-y us possible, so that doubt might always rest upon his name, motives and character. Mr. Hunter says tho trial v.as a fair one.

Probably a "short and a bloody ono" would have reined the fairest to hint. Otherwiso is wrong. What I am about to say, is to that trial, is upon the authority of 'jeorgo Henry lloyt, as often told to n.c and others. As far as can be. the statements have been verified by dates reports of the period.

On Col. Hoyt's arrival at Charles-own, in the forenoon of November 6th, lie almost immediately to the court-room. The trial had been in progress fvr two days. It commenced November 4th, (Wednesday). Hardly had he announced himself to the court, and taken a seat by his client, who lay 011 a cot in the court-room, when the latter informed him that there was an I'vident design to convict him anil pro-lOunee sentence on the next day, and lien execute him by or on the following Wednesday.

He was arraigned for i reason and inciting insurrection against the state. As lie did this, Capt. -irown called Hoyt's attention to a pawn1 on the door, feet-trampled anil tobacco-stained. It was picked up, and found to be a brief, or memorandum, written by John Brown for the use and guidance of the Virginia lawyers appointed as his counsel by the judge. It had oeen contemptuously tlung away unused.

In this brief, John Brown indicated his wish to have called as witnesses for himself the men whom he had held as prisoners. By their testimony he meant to show that he stated his purposes to be. This was bis only aim; this his captors did not desiro to have done. hen tho paper was found, Capt. Brown, rising upon his elbow upon the cot, told the court that he repudiated the Virginian lawyers.

He declined their services, and he accepted Mr. Hoyt's. The brief I refer to, i3 probably in the possession of Col. Hoyt's widow, who lives at Athol, 1ass. Tho plea of insanity made by the Virginians was the excuse for rejecting their services.

Hoy then moved for a delav till next day order, as he said, to have time to examine the Virginian statutes. The request wa-i somewhat curtly, not to say uncivilv, refused. The trial went, on, ami shortly after Captain Brown called his young lawyer's attention to the fact that witnesses whom he had asked to be suhpuMiaed were reported as not to be found, when several of them had been seen in the court-room but a short time before. On this, lloyt was able to make such motion and arrangements as cor. I-ed the judge to tu'journ till tin- in xt day.

Mr. lloyt consumed that in very adroit and slow exnnriru i. ns of witnesses, and it passed any conclusion. On Monday the presence of Messrs. CI in to 1.

The arguments made, destrm tii accusations of treason nnd tnsurrec. tion. Finally the sentence of death assumed the aspect of a capital crime and its punishment. The appeal to the Supreme court and tho thirty days in jail, awaiting execution, became, as it were, a period of illumination. To which it was largely duo the full recognition of John Brown.

I now close this fragmentary review of a great event with the declaration that I have written frankly and without ill-will. I feel sure that I have written truthfully. Thero remains much unsaid, for the men who followed John llrown were all worthy of of historical description. I may hope, in some other form than this, to present a careful portraiture of their acts and characters.

Cook's was written tftertho failure. And thereby hangs little series of incidents.

One of tho and boldest Kansas Free State ighters in 1 800-06 was Charles Len-lart, a printer of about twenty years of ige. Cook was one of his closest riends. Lenhart disappeared from Kan-ins at the time of tho Harper's Ferry tutbreak. 1 do not know whether he lesigned to join it. but I do know that te entered Virginia, after the defeat, tosed as a Miasotirian who bated irown, obtained work in the ollieo of True Democrat at Charlestown, one of tho militia companies, ind was most active in both denoun jingand guarding the "abolition" pris-tners.

He was abie, after Brown's ex-icution, when the vigilance was relaxed, to communicate with Hook. A plan of escape was arranged, jenhart was on gnard the night on vhich it was to have been attempted. That day, Mrs. Willard, wife of the 'Jeuteiiant-Oovornor of the State of In-liana, and Cook's sister, had taken ol tim her final leave. Her brother ex-tected she would leave Charlestown at tnce, but taken ill after tho interview, de was compelled to remain over tight.

Cook on learning of this declined to make tho attempt, being if raid Mrs. Willard might have been tectsed of complicity. Lenhart on tho next night was unable to be on guard ind tho prisoners wero detected ana foiled. Copeland and Green, tho colored men, bore themselves as well us their white connades, and Copeland's letters to his wife and friends at Oberlin ire possessed with the same calm cour-igo as theirs. The two last, Stevens ind Ilazlett, proved equal to the measure set by their heroic leader and brav 1 tsoeiates.

In a letter to Mrs. Maxson, 5f Springdale, Iowa, at whose house ho md his comrades had remained during the winter and soring of under late of February 15th. 1800, Stevens wrote: "My trial is over, and I expect to make mv exit from this world on the 16th of March. Whatever my fat? may be, I am ready to meet it, trusting ill "to truth and justice. To die for loving the rights of man is rather hard, but it is sweet to bear." Albert Ilazlett wrote to Dr.

Gill, of the same place, just before his trial, that "whatever may bo our fate, rest assured that we will not shame our dead companions by a shrinking fear. They have lived and died alike bravo man; and I hope we may do the same, and our souls with no sins of intention upon their robes, may gazed unmoved upon the scaffold and the tomb. Nothing is more certain than that they all had their wish in that regard. They met death unmoved, without passion, and in the conviction that their lying was to be fruitful of growth for iberty. One more fact and I am done, Andrew Hunter, then prosecuting attorney for tho county of Jefferson, Virginia, said in an article, Times-Democrat, Sep.

5, 18871 front which I quote, that "when John Brown was first brought out before the examining court, he openly proclaimed that he didn't want any trial; that he had acted with his eyes open i.ad ventured upon his expedition;" that ho stated, "openly and boldly, that ho caruo for the purpose of putting arms in the hands of tho slaves, and inciting 'im to whatever extent might 1 necessary to establish their freedom." iain, ho says, that "certain counsel for Brown from Boston. Im-icdiately after their appearance and a iort conference with him, bis whole mrse changed." The Boston "coun-1." of whom Mr. Hunter speaks in the Sural, consisted of one young gentle-an, Mr. George Henry lloyt, who arrived, expecting to meet Mr. 'hilton.

of Washington City and Mr. iswold, of Cleveland, Ohio, and with 'cm to act as junior counsel.

"I received $1,200 and Mrs. Little received the same. We had te pay the bank $3 for collecting the money. We lave not decided what we will do with our money, but we have it in the Gate City National Bank." "Will Mr. Collins try his luck again?" asked the reporter.
