The PIONEER PRINTING PREss-Sam. Bran.
nan, in a letter to the Alta, says that Mr. w.
A. Bartlett, of New York, did not, as he
claims, strike off the first paper, or write the
first editorial in California, but that he (AirI
Brennan) is the pioneer newspaper man of
the State. He says:
l brought the printing establishment with
me to this city, and landed here on the 3lst
of July, lS46, and published the first number
of the Star on the 9th day of January, ls47.
l built the house that it was printed in, on
the corner of Washington and Stockton sts.,
and set up all the type with the assistance of
Mr. John Eager, young man who came to
this country with me. The establishment
belonged to me, and Mr.. Bartlett had no Pc
cuniary interest in it whatever. 1 did the
press work on the paper, Mr.. Eager and my
self being the only printers in this place at
that time, Mr.. Kemble, whom l afterward
employed as editor, being absent with Col.
Fremonts battalion at Los Angeles There
was no ether printing Office in the place for
MIR. Bartlett to be connected with, or even
had been, a fact which can be attested by
hundred witnesses now living in this country,
if necessary. Mr.. Bartlett might have come
into the office while was at work and asked
the privilege to pull the bar for one sheet
but have no recollection of it; but if so, it
could not have been the first sheet, for we
were quite alone, and it was after midnight
when it was struck off the balance finished
the next day l continued to own the estab-
lishment until after the gold mines were dis
covered, when sold it to Mr.. Kemble, now
connected with the Union at Sacramento

Ossawatamle Brown.

The charges upon which this man is now
being tried at CharIestown, Virginia. are
treason, conspiracy with slaves and murder.
In regard to the crime of treason, it will be
necessary to show that Brown intended to
overthrow the government of the United
States The only evidence of the truth of
this charge is the model of a government on
paper, in the possession of the counsel for the
prosecution, and proof that meeting or con.
vention was somewhere held, which Brown
attended and in which this plan was ap-
proved.
As to conspiracy with slaves. it will have
to be proven that slaves were engaged in the
attack at Harper's Ferry, and we believe it
appears that no slaves were engaged or in
any manner implicated in the transaction
Asto murder, it will have to appear that the
killing was premeditated and deliberate If
it resulted from the heat of the moment and
contrary to the original design it could only
be manslaughter
If the charge Of treason be tried according
to the Constitution and laws Of the United
States, the prisoner will have hope of es
cape, but if according to the laws of Virgin
ia, his chances are small, because the deini-
ton of treason is much broader under the
laws of Virginia and covers the case of Brown.
The State Courts of Virginia have heretofore
decided in accordance with the doctrine Of
extreme State Rights, and il is likely that the
Court at Charlestown will do the same; so
that Brown will be tried without reference
to the definition Of treason in the Consritu-
ton of the United States, and Gov. Wise and
the State of Virginia will have his meat
OF the events transpiring in connection
with this trial, Old Brown seems to be the
most Indifferent spectator. He seems to re.
gard himself as a great martyr in the cause
of human liberty His counsel undertook to
put in : lea for him on the ground of insan
ity, but he Indignantly refused to take the
benefit of any such plea. lie was not insane
he said, and he would not attempt to escape
his responsibility by any such pretense.
Whatever may be the degree Of Browns
guilt, there is one thing certain, and that is
that he is brave man, that he has no fear of
death, and that he believes he was right in
what he did. But men have no business to
be mistaken in such grave matters, and he
who undertakes to carry out his own notions
of morality and justice in violation of exist
ing law and government, must suffer the pen
atty of his act. It's right that he should
