The excitement here this morningwas very great.
All were eager for the news from Charlestown. As
soon as the telegraph announced Browns death,
the newspaper Offices were besieged by crowds.
Thousands Of extras were rapidly thrown of, and
ior hours no topic was heard of but the absorbing
event. The demands of Virginia upon the gunshops
of this city have been excessive. Within the last
month $4,000 worth of pistols have been sent
hence to the Old Dominion.
