NEW BRUNSWICK. N. J., Dec. 9

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., Dec. 9Th.
The Dispatch and myself have just finished
a cozy chat. As l glance over its familiar
pages it seems almost to "carry me back to
old Virginia. once more; but this feeling, like
all other air castles, soon yanishes, and reality
steps in TO tell me that am not in Virginia,
but in New Jersey. l suppose that some of
nv friends would count me "a stranger in
a strange land;" yet / do not know but that
feel pretty much at home here except when
once in a while get a rap over the head about
our ''peeuliar institution" This rap doesn't
hurt much, though, as it il given more for the
purpose OF keeping the raeper's hand in good
prac tice than for any other motive. There
is a deep, strong feeling here in favor OF our
good old State. Since my coming here. l
have not found many persons of the martyr
making order. Some few there certainly are,
scattered over the North, who, donkey fashion,
go about braying their harmonious ditties of
Freedom for the oppressed;" but their dom
keyistic reverenees scarce meet with a better
reward than the donkey himself-namely to
get laughed at, or else held i'll contempt for
their pains. That malignant spirit of inter-
meddiing, which 1 expected TO find here.
have not found, and with most sincere plea
sure of heart do | say that, independent of
Phillips, Giddings & Co., the sympathies of
the North are with the South. Almost to q
AMT does the North condemn all frantic yio-
lence, such rs we have lately had sample of.
The feeling awakened.is only one of commits
Grating disgust; there is no sympathy with it..
/ DO not make this assertion without knowing
what l say, for I have conyersed on these
matters with hundreds of our Northern
brethren, and I do know that there are here
thousands of good, true hearts and hands,
who love the Old Dominion and her sister
States most heartily. Deep indignation has
filled my heart in seeing the insult and wrong
inflicted upon Virginia, and once more as
sure you that in this, have had infinitely a
greater number of sympa athiZers than the old
sinartyr,' has had. You know that the ladies
are, in these days, Lords of creation,'' and
are sure to keep the balance of mankind in
the right track. One Of these fair ones ex-
there could be slaves in New Jersey, as she
likes the "instituton."

CHARLEsTowN, VA, Dec 70, 80.
As everything connected with the Harper's
Ferry tragedy seems to interest the public, a
line or two from here at this time may not be
unin teresting to your numerous readers. We
have been here only few days and have not,
of course. as yet, become much ACC quail n ted
with soldier life. However, from present ap-
pearances, really think that shall like Ii ye-
ry much. But the transition from feather beGs
and hair mattresses to straw ticks and plank
or dirt floors, is so sudden that many men
would be apt to rebel; but that good soldier
never does.
citizens here, and they are certainly entitled
to the waTmest praise of those who have been
the happy recipients OF their fayors. To-day,
a gentleman from the country (for none other
than a gentleman could thus act called at our
quarters and kindly offered TO furnish us from
his farm, any thing we might wish, from a

tainly be held in fond remembrance by all
who shall share his hospitality.
The dress parade on yesterday was grand
display of the military stationed here. Some
ten or twelve companies were reviewed by the
officers of the day. Prominent amongst them
appeared the Richardson Guards,n Captain
John Welch, of Madison G. H., numbering in
ali 81 men, rank and file. This volunteereom-
pany has been organized but few months,
vet they have attained perfec tion in drill
that viii do credit to many OF the older COM
panies of the State. Capt. Welch is certainly
q superior officer, and the gentieinanly deport-
ment and noble bearing of his men have won
for him and them a name that may well be
enyied by all.
The weather for several days past has been

com posure.
AT this time the military here number near

LOPEZ Nor GARRorKD.-A correspondent
writing from Marion, Ala, ITO the Hampstead
Courier, tells the following extraordinary sto-
ry:
Since the death OF fSenor Francisco de O'Gar-
Ella, Cuban creole worth some $1,000 600,
some interesting developments have been
made. The deceased was the intimate friend
Of Narcisso Lopez, and was implicated in the
Pinto difficulty. The papers left by the de-
ceased prove that the person garroted in 1851,
and believed by all the world to be Narcisso
Lopez, was somebody else; that Lopez was
not earroted, but, through the influence of Se-
nor OGarcia, substitute was procured; Lc-
peg was executed by proxy. Whether the au-
thorittes of General Concha connived at this
proceeding, We have no means of knowing
neither have we any authentic information of
the fate OF Lopez. There was story current,
a few years ago, In the town of Limonal, dis
trict OF Matanzas, and not far from Cardenas,
that q stranger who inhabited a house then be-
longing 10 0Garcia, bore striking likeness
TO Lopez. In 1856 this stranger, who held In
tercoursN with none OF the Inhabitants OF Lis
monaI, though he was occasionally visited BY
strangers, sickened and died. The body was
carried ~ by Os0arcia's people, and no one
knows what became oft. Even the physician
Of the deceased was = stranger In LimonAi.
People there believe that this unknown man
was no other than Lopez himself

LETTER FROM CoNsPIRAToR.-John e.
Cook, in letter to his mother-in-iaw, at VIII
liamsburg, N. Y, referring to the Harper's
Ferry invasion, says:
at had been represented to me and mycom-
rades that when once the banner of freedom
should be raised, they would flock to it by
thousands; and that their echoing shout of
freedom would be borne by the breeze to our
most southern shore, to tell of freedom there.
/ gave heart and hand TO q work which
deemed noble and holy cause. The result
has proved that we were deceived; that the
masses of the slaves did not wish for freedom
There was no rallytag dsxsath onr banner. We
were left TO meet the conflict all alone, TO dare,
and do, and die. Twelve of my companions
are sleeping now with the damp mould orsr
them, and flee are inmates Of these prison walls"
