WHAT THE COUNTRY THINKS OF IT-REsPoNs

WHAT THE COUNTRY ThlNhS VI ii-hESrONSh
OF THE NORTHUMBERLAND.
Friends of Liberty and fair-play you have seen the
hravest man Of the century stricken cowardly and
murderous blows when lying vanquished and bleeding
in the armory You have seen him brought faint and
wounded into Court of Justice ~ upon apaet, and
in that condition hurried through the mockery of a
trial with ferocity of impotence that no savage tribe
outside Of Christendom has been guilty Of. You
have seen devoted an noble man. in violation both OF
law and of precedent condemned to death with such
summary vengeance as no criminal the North how
ever vile, has ever experienced And what is the YER
dict of the North upon tins series Of hidcous and cow
ardly atrocities Two DOLLARS PER HOUR FOR THE
rIRsr HUNDRED HouRsll Substaatial sympathy for
John Brorn So inpatient the North to testify
their abhorrence n, the treatment which John Brown
had received at the hands of Southern Judiciary that
deepe all opinions as to the propney or wisdom of his
cour In the particular case upon which he was tried
s'NortheIn Fair Play seizes the first practical method
TO give expression 70 its insulted manhood
Txs rrousASp PHorooRAPHs of John Brown will
not satisfy the demand This is one way in which the
North afxes its seal Of reprobation upon the brutal
and cowarcly manner in which a brave man is being
hurried TO death
