number killed and wounded during the recent in
suIrecton Killed, 5 citizens and Is insurgents ;
wounded 3 insurgents prisoners, 8 inturgehts.
The prisoners have been committed to the
Charleston jai! to await the action of the grand
jury, &hen they will be indicted and tried in q
few days. The arrangement about the jurisdic-
ton has been settled in this way: The local au-
thorities to try the prisoners for murder, and
in the meanwhile the U. s. authorities will pro-
ceed on the charge of treason. Gov. Wise said to
Mr.. Ould, the U. S. District Attorney, that he
had no objection to the general government pro-
, ceedng against the prisoners. That is what will
be left of them by the time the Virginia authori-
ties done with them Brown is better to-day,
and has made full statement of his operations.
He says he rented the farm Of DR.. Kennedy six
months since, and the rent is paid until next
March. lie never had over % men at the farm at
any one time that belonged to the organisation,
but that he had good reason to expect reinforce
ments from Maryland, Kentucky and North and
South Carolina, and from Canadas. He had pro.
vided arms sufficient for 1900 men, including 200
Sharp's rifles and 1000 spears, all of which were
left ut the farm. lie also had an abundance OF
powder and fixed ammunition. All the arms were
from time to time brought from Connecticut, and
other eastern points, to Chambersburg Pa, and
were directed to j. Smith & Sons, Kennedy Farm,

ceive the parties who handled them on the way to
the farm. He said that lie made one mistake, in
either not OBTAINING the train on Sunday night or
else permitting it to 60 on unmolested. This mis-
take he seemed to infer, exposed his doings too
soon and prevented his reinforcemens coming.
The names of all his party at the Ferry, on Sun
day night, except three white men, whom he ad-
mits he sent away on an errard, is as follow, with
their proper titles under the provisional govern

-.'it' QUESTION OF JURISDICTION
Vashinqton, Oct. 10.-The President and Sec
retary of War were together several hours yesteri
day, on matters connected with the proceedings at
Harper's Ferry, the result of which conference
was the sending of U. s. District Attorney Ould
thither to superinend the legal proceedings In tie
premises. The excitement which last night ex-
listed in Washington and vicinity has subsidized,
and the extraordinary force relieved. |: is said
that tho affair a. Harper's Ferry is the first case
of the kind which has ever occurred in this coun:
try, involving at the same time both State and
Federal Jurisdiction. While The State is affected
as to slavery and locality, the general Govern
ment is interested with regard to the public prop
erty it having exclusive control ovor the Arsenal
grounds independently for the State, and also
with regard to the mails. Already,in distinguish
cd quarters, the question Of Jurisdiction is dis
cussed, as Gov Wise will, 1t is said, claim the
prisoners now held by the U. S. troops, to be
, dealt with according to the laws Of Virginia. In
this case the question of Juri sdioton will have to
be determined by the judiciary.
