The MINES ~. AarPsrss Ferry.
There seems to be no reasonable explana-
ton for the s'nsGts ct Harpsr's Ferry, the
account Of which fills two columns Of tele-
GRAPHIC dispatches. Notwithstanding tho par.
tial success which attended tho first move
ment in ssising the Arsenal, it must have
been either sudden outbreak Of indigna-
ton on The psrt Of workmen cheated ont Of
their wages, or . wild scheme Of nsdman
or a idiot.
II Ossawassamie Brown was really the
leader Of the riot, it 10 to be regarded sim.
ply - tho last browning act OF vengeance OF
= confirmed monomaniac. The massacre Of
Browne son BY the border rui6ans unsettled
his intellect, and he has brooded over
schemes Of vengeance against the slAyshold-
ers till no has lost eli Discrimination Of right
and wrong, and al rational appreciation Of
the difference between the practicable and
the impossile. His anifOrn snocsss in his
extravagant enterprises in Kansas and Mis-
souri, hes suboldsnea him TO make more
brilliant strike as the very seat Of the slave
power.
Brown Was ~ brave - ewedsn's mailman,
Charles xIlth, and was - successful, too,
in his sphere, till, like him, he Vas snbold-
ened to undertake inpossibili.iss, and like
him psrished in tho attempt,
"And left nans 81 which the world grew pale,
To point moral, or adorn = tale"
The Burlington Gazette, however, seeks
to use the exploits Of Brown 1t Harpsr's

publican party, and to frighssn the victorious
hosts Of the people in the Northwest, in

Washington, March l.


The following was this day
agreed upon by Mr.. Sickles'
counsel: Mr.. Sickles having
been committed on Sunday, the
further examination before the
magistrate will be waived, for the
reason that the criminal court
commences on Monday, and be
ing in confinement he will be en-
titled without delay,to an imme-
date and final trial. A further
examination before the commit
ting magistrate would involve a
long investigation of the distress
ing circumstances without any
final result and might procrastin-
ate the period of getting the case
before the jury. ..-..
Numerous offers of bail have
been pouring in upon Mr.. Sick
les ever since he was committed.
But having voluntarily placed him
self in the hands of plb!ic Justice
will patiently wait until his act
shall be finally pronounce ed upoa
by jury of his coantrymen, af-
ter a full and complete hearing
of the case; and whilst this may
subject him to some inconveni
ence, his own feelings and those
of others involved, whom he is
willing, as far as possible, to
spare, will Be saved from the re-
peated discussion of the unhappy
circumstances attending this case.
Mr.. Sickles' mother arrived
last night and had a painful in
terview with him. The mother
of Mrs. Sickles also visited him
this morning, in company with
Surveyor Hart, Of New York,
and was so overcome b. her feel
ings as to fai....

For the Courier,
Rail RDa;l$.

Ma. EoIroR There seems to be an i'm
preston abroad, and, W. are sorry to say,
some persons in our midst are using efforts
to fix that impression, that we as q commu-
nifty, as County, are opposed to the issuing
of the remainder ofthc bonds voted by Us to
the B. & NJ. r. r. Co., in other words, that
We are for reputation. But, such i. not tie
fact.
We arc aware of the movements of some
Of our citiz..ls in their efforts to create such
All impression abroad, and to stir up opposi-
ton Through the county, to the fulfilment
of u contract entered into by and between US
and said R. r. Goa contract willingly cn-
tered into, ratified by vote of our people,
and partly complied with, in the issue of
$50, ooJ Of .ha;c bonls.
But why, ana for what purp,sc, arc ties,

boil, but we very much doubt his capabty
to tell sswhat degree of heat it will require to
f,ist him into the Tr.asurcr's oil &c, to which
position, We learn, he aspircs.
No, gentlemen, it is all we'll emo, Oh to get
up resolutions endorsing yoursslres PIT them
into your pockets, ride to Agency, and get
few Of your friends 10 pass them. That is
good buncom5e, but rather small business to
b. caught at.
But, seriously, the people of Wapcllo arc
against reputation. They are for paying
their just debts, and it will require more ami
better men than are yet engaged in the task
Of pcrsuading them that debt honestly
mad., must not be as honestly paid, and it
is an insalt to the int,sritY of oar people for
these men to proprose or even intimate RI
