IMPORTANT AND GRATIFYING RESULT

one Of the most gratifying political results
that 1t has been our pleasure to record, Is that,
notwithstanding the disfranchisnent Of the city
OF baltimore by Know Nothing rowdies, and
notwithstanding the theft of ten members ofthe
House OF Delegates and a Senator in that city,
the'r party has been bully defeated IN the State!
lhe honest voters in the interior, at pure and
Tree ballot boxes, which were unlainted BY
fraud or violence, have come gallantly TO the
rescue, and returned to the Senate and House
SO many Democratic members, that the fraudu-
lent members of Baltimore are literally over
whelmed, and THE DEMOCRATS HAVE A MAJOR
rrY IN EACH BRANCH OF THE LEGISLATURE, which
gives them A DEMOCRATIC UNITED

wholesome laws, and so 10 proUide for their
creation, as TO preclude, forever hereafter, all
likelihood Of tbelrecurrence Of scenes like those,
which, on Wednesday last, 50 disgraced that

From Lawrence (K.) Herald of Freedom, Oct. 29.l
The first thing the people OF Kansas heard o!
old John Brown, was In the summer OF 1892.
A meeting of ultra AboIiiouists was held at
Cazsnovia, n Y, If we recollect rightly
While in session, Brown, VINO IS a native OF
Essex county, n. Y, appeared in that conyen-
ton, and made a very fiery speech, during
winch he SAID he had tour sons IN Kansas, and
he had three Others who were deSIrouS OF going
there. TO aid ia fighting the battles OF freedom
He could not consent to go, unless he could go
armed. and he would like TO arm all his sons,
but he was not able to do 50. Funds were
contributed on the spot, principally by GerTn
Smith.
The four sons had located on Pottawatomle
creek. in Lykins county, and in the fall OF
| 1888 were Joined by the father and other broth
| ers. When the Wakarusa war was pending,
/ the old man and four sors arrived IN Lawrence,
/ the balance he reported sick. As they drove
mn m front the Free State Hotel, they were
all standing in a small lumber wagon. 10 each
I of their persons was strapped a sho:t heavy
broadsword. Each was supplied with goodly
number of firearms and navy revolvers, and
poles were standing endwlse around the wagon
box with fixed 5ayonets pointing upwards
They looked really formidable, and were re-
ceiyed with great ecIat. A small military coin
panv was organized at once, and the command
was riven 10 old Brown. From that moment
he commenced fomeuting difficulties in camp,
disregarding the commands OF superior officers,
and irving to induce the men 10 go down 10
Frantiio and make an attack upon pro-slavery
forces encamped there. The Committee OF
Public Safety were called upon several times
10 head off this wild adventure. as the people
of Lawrence had planted themselves on the law,
claiming that they had not been guilty OF It's
intractiou. and that no armed body OF men
should enter the town for any purpose ~hateveF

TORS"
sEwARD's CONNECTION WITH TEE PLOT.

sEwARD's CONNECTION WITH TEE PLOT.
We do not understand the .NeW York Tunes
to be an apoIogist for his connection with the
Harpers Ferry affair, but We fail entirely tc
agree with il that h is entitled to praise for
poStponihg the movement ''ior eighteen months.
What would the Times say of the conduct OF a
man who was fully informed that plot existed
tor robbng IFS countng-room, but who, instead
Of promptly putting the pfoprletors on their
guard and exposing the yillainous scheme, should
simply say to the burglars, that he fought not,
n his position, to have been told'' of it, or pos
si5Iy by gently reProving them, induce them
to postpone the act for longer or shorter period!
Would the Iinles give the man, who thus tr-
fed with crim", credit for stopping the move
ment the moment he heard Of II?
Tins Is precisely Mr.. Stewards position
lie did know Of Brown's plans. He dare not
deny, over has own name, that he knew OF them.
Forbes, when he said that she went fully into
the matter" with Seward, meant to be under-
stood that be told him OF the plans of Brown for
an attark upon Harper's Ferry. He did tell
bim Of those plans and Seward replied that
''in his position he ought not to have been tod''
These are facts ipfich Mr.. Sew1rd UiH not de-
M, AMI which must render his CONDUCT odious
W hat dld seward co ~ pr
alton OF the base plot? What steps did he take
10 stop it7 Suppose we adopt the charitable con-
clusion OF the Times, that he awarded il off for
nearly two years" does that help the matter?
In our estimation It only makes 1t worse. Du-
ring this long period lie has been dailying with
prospective crime, and hobnobing with pros
pectve criminals, when word ftly spoken
would have sent them cringing into obScurity.
If Mr.. Stewards friends want more hight on
this subject if they want clearer statement
than Col. Forbes has furnished, in hls publish
ed letters, let them call on that gentleman for
al! the facts. Forbes is no myth, but real flesh
and blood; and they can learn from him quite
as much as they will care to know. And a.
mony other things they can Isarn from his oIcn
lips, qs 1Ce hace doae, the facts which we have
stated, viz that he did tell Seward fully about
Browns proposition to make an attack upon
Harper's Ferry.
The poor excuse for Mr.. Seward, a Senator
of the United States, is that with a full knowl-
edge of the conspiracy, he awarded it off for
nearly two wears" Shame on such excuses.
And shame on such conduct, in Senator of
the United States, and an aspirant tor the Pres
idency.
