Iitciudtne the Osweeo 7I'n**, John Brown died a -- martyr.\ II h* ■»* « martyr, w. ask to what? The Republican pres* and the fanatics wish to have it believed-and tbev will mislead and decievo the credulous in any way possible solely lor political objects— that he was a martyr to “ freedom.”. But tbe \evidence pf Bra Career In Kansas, and bis brief and disastrous career in Virginia, proves beyond any reaspttebltj, doubt whatever that if he was a martyr at tali' irwas'to hia own crimes ! He w is a martyr tb hia own wilful and violent acts, and became finally, tbe viciim of violated and outraged law. John Brown, as a cotemporary truthfully remarks, was realty one oi tboae Jioody scourges who stagger onr faith in Goo and revelation, but of whhm, happily, but dear specimens exiat in our day,—a rtligiout mur- ' dtrer. Nursed in tbe cradle of abolition fanati cism, he went forth, witb a Bible in one band and a revolver in tbe other, a modern Hahomet, to convert or destroy.. The bloody atrocities oi which he was guilty in Kansas sre almost be yond belief. The “ Pottawatomie massacre,\ aa the circumitance* are related by hia ates and proven in judicial proceedings, a of the most cold-blooded deeds recorded in history. Civilization tells no tale of such un mitigated horror. Only in the Irightfol stories of Indian ferocity, can we find any approach to this shocking deed. He transplanted from Kansas to Virginia the incredible perversity ol bis character. For monthi. under an assumed name, he was a spy upon “ the weakness of the land.* Enjoying the hospitality of the frsnk and gansroua South erners, he perfected bis plans to deluge their hearths with their blood, to lot loose npon them the borrora of a servile insurrection, to plunge their State into a barbarism worse than tbat in which their fathtrs fonnd it two hundred years ago. He commenced the execution of the plot, he placed the implements of murder in the bands oi the iolerior race and strove, to ioroe them to partlcipata in tbe reign of terror be in tended to inaugurate, heabot down unarmed unoffending citizens iu tba streets. Re waged actual and murderous war, for a brief space, against the government ol the State, Ihe avowed and premeditated purpose of over turning (hat government. Hen had previously resisted the lawe, but no Americancitizen, s' the foundation of oor political system, bad i taken upon arms to overthrow establUhid at so great cost of blood and sure. He bee been the first traitor taken witb arms in bis htnde—- may ha bo the last I And all these revetting crimes, from the time when he called men oat of their qaiet homes in Kan sas, 10 murder them at their door-steps, to the feui shot which struck dewn the unarmed H ay or ol Harper’s Ferry In the itreets or bis own city, were perpetrated ia tho eacred namea ol \'krw nivV-uur'uUwrveo inal one of John' Brown’* sympathisers has attempted to ditpror* or east a doubt apoo the fact that ha went into Virginia and concentrated mnnitione i f war,— 1*00 murderous pikes,‘’hundreds ol rifles and revolvers, snd powder, balls, ftc —tbat h* mad* opan wa? upon the laws ol Virginia, and ahol down five*human beings in hie rtbellioas career there.

The following ia tha concludiog portion of a cent article in the London 7ime* on this sub ject, which b u attracted a great deal of atten tion on both sides of tbe channel: We have, therefore, we tbipk, established that there is considerable irritation in ihe mi ’ uf the Freoah army and naiion against Englar and that that irritation has maimy been caused by tba action of th* French Government. From tbit il necessarily follow* that the French Gov ernment ba* resolved to go to war with this country. It may be that a profound politician like the Emperor of the French, la not unwilling to have it believed that hia people are burning to avenge the misfortune of tbe last war upon England, and that if peace be preserved, it is entirely owing to bis good .sense and modera t(on. It may be that the Emperor Napoleon, while exciting the national spirit of his euijecta against us, and making sneh preparations aa would ba^ required if a war were really in con templation, ouly means to place himself in ao commanding a position that England, which de- sire* peace above ail things, may be intimidated into ful!p*ing whatever impulse he may please to give to the affairs of Europe; or, lastly, il may he tbat those things really mean what those - tr# politically opposed to the Emperor de they mean, and tbat we have a danger to confront, in tha existence oi which we cannot yet persuade ourselves to believe.

This is all atulf. Browti cime to Kansas, not as s peacelui settlqr, but as a gue rilla Sgbter. He uerer was driven from hit pro perty by border ruffians, as he novar had any properly to be driven Irom. AU lL* hostility \ .met with was io retaliation for hlsown bar- •ous and brutal deeds. The first murder* in Kansas were those committed by old Brown.— He opened the bloody ball, and he more than my one else is responsible for the terrible icen*« hat marked the protracted politioal squabbles ol tho Territory. Of all the apts.iu th* \ Bltaad.- ihg Kansas” tragedy, the first in order ot time were i he murders committed on the night ol the 24th of May, 1856, on Pottawatomie Crock. In this massacre, conducted by old Brown, live person# were killed, viz: Allen VVilkinion,' W . Sherman, old Wm. P.

Allen Wilkinson was a member of the Kan - -i Legislature—s quiet, inoffancive man. Hit widow, Louisa Jane Wilkinson, testified that on th* night of the 24th of Hay, 1856, between the hours of midnight and daybreak, the thinks, - party of men came to the house where they ere residing at(d-forcibly carried her husband way ; that they took him iu tbe name of the Northern army,\ and that next morning be as lound anout 160 yards Irom the house, d.-ad. Mrs. Wilkiueon was re’j ill at the tint- wiilt measles. Here follows affidavit: ’’ I begged them to 1st Mr. Wilkinson stay i'h tne, saying tbat I was sick and helpless, »d could nos stay by myself. My husband also 'ked them to let him stay with me, until be odd get some one to wait on me; told them that ho would not rnn off, but ho would be tyere th* next day, or whenever called for; thd old man who seemed to be in command looked at t, and then around at the children, and re plied, ' yon have neighbors,’ I said, 1 so I bare, bnt they are not here, and I cannot go for them.’ The old man replied, ‘ it matter# not,’ and told him to get ready. Hy husband wanted to put an- hi* boota, and get ready, to aa to be protect ed from tbe damp and night air, but they would not let bim. They then took my husband' lway- * * ' ‘ “ After they were gouc I thought I heanl my husband’s voice in complaint. * * * Next morning Hr.

At tbe time of separation they both seemed to be fully st-If possessedr and the partiug, pecially on his p art, exhibited a composure either feigned or real, that waa truly sur prising. I t is said that she rather repelled nil a ttempts on'his part to expresa sympa thy w ith her under hernfliictton. She re sented the idea that Capt.
