iuatiOn Of Witnesses.

CnARLEsTowN, Va, Oct 2S.-The after
noon proceedings in the trial of Brown, sew
eral witnesses were called for the defense,
and not answering, Mr. Brown arose from his
mattrass. and. evidently excited, standing
on his feet, addressed the Court as tollo ows ::
"May it please the Court, | discover that
notwithstanding all the assertions that |
have received, nothing like fair trial is to
be given me- As it would seem. gave the
names Of the persons wished to have called
eursd that they should be subpeoned
wrote down q memorandum to that effect,
and where those parties were. butit appears
tnat they have not been subpeoned, as far
as can learn, and now ask, If am to have
anything at all deserving the name and
shadow of fair trial, that this proceeding
be deferred until tomorrow morning, for
have before stated on whom l can rely, but
sm in hopes that my counsel may arrive,
who will attend to seeing that I get the
witnesses who are necessary for my defense.

something done, if anything is designed. and
if not. am ready for anything that may

Brown then laid down again. drew his
blanket over him, and appeared to sink into
q tranquil slumber.
Mr.. Hoyt Browns counsel from Boston,
asked for an adjournment till morning, Gu
the ground that Judge Tilden would proba-
bly, arrive during the night, and be able to
appear as counsel. He excused himself
from conducting the defense because he was
not acquainted with the Virginia criminal
code.
After further consideration between the
counsel, Mr.. Green arose to state that Mr..
Bolts and himself would now both with
draw from the case and could act no longer
in behalf Of the prisoner, he having got up
and declared that he had no confidence in
the counsel who have beer assigned to him.

l feel compelled to withdraw from the case,
that the Court could not insist that should
remain in such an unwelcome position.
The Court would not compel the gentle
men to remain in the case, and accordingly
granted their request.
The proceedings at this point were post
poned, and great excitement prevails in the
town, aud the guards have been increased.

of explaining what he knew about Brown
He says he invited him to jefferson, o.,
where he delivered lecture on Sunday, af.
ter church, telling his trials in Kansas.
After the lecture Gddings prompted the au-
dience to contribute for the relief Of Brown
After which lie took tea at his residence,
where they had conversation; though
Brown never said he intended 10 visit slave
States to free slaves. Giddlngs inferred he
would if opportunit, offered. mainly from
having done SO in Missouri

Brown. He asserts neither in lecture or
conversation did Brown say he had assist

Big Rock. This would give Us sufficient
trade from the interior Of C,inton county to
pay for the bridges IN two years. Our
merchants can draw this trade il they will
only move in the matter, for We have con
versed with citizens Of Cedar and Clinton,
and they assure us they would much rather
come here to make their purchases than to
any other point in the State. All that they
wish is facilities for reaching US. They
mu.t have such facilities, and that too

COUNTY RoADs.-We have at diff
ferent times alluded to the building and
improving Of our county roads, SO as to al
low travel on them at any season Of the
year. As they are now, it is impossible for
our farmers to reach town during several
weeks, both spring and fall. the roads not
permitting the passage of empty wagons,
much less when they are loaded. There is
a great deal of grumbling among those per-
sons living in the back part Of the county,
who have to bring their produce to this
market, and many of them prefer hauling
their grain to stations on the line Of the G.
l. l. N. r. R., where they are paid about
the same prices, and save a long haul over
very poor roads.
No city will prosper unless the thorough
fares leading into the interior are well
built and kept in good order. If We had
several lines OF macadamized roads starting
from this city and extending to the lines of
Clinton, Cedar and Muscatine counties, We
should be able to draw very large portion
Of the trade which now goes to Muscatine
and stations on the line Of railroads running
through the above counties.
Another important matter is bridging the
Wapsie. At least two bridges should be
thrown across this stream-ons st the ferry
