CHEERING PROSPECTS.
have the satisfaction Of announcing the expected
restoration Of ibis place TO Olerble condition of de-
eorum. Col DAVIS has been done for. HE reign is
epdeS. His occupations gone. Piuned troops and
pejebing sieeds have passed from under his control
The suppore is the result of the conference between
the Colonel ard Gov. Wise, Of which l have before
spoken Last evening new and more highly titled
officer came up on a special steam engine from Har-
per's Ferry, TO take upon himself military command,
and TO requisite the deficiencies Of Col. Dsvss rule.
TIE new commander is a Major General and his name
is Tshaero The people here call him rollifer Gen.
Toer, which is said be the accepted and correct
pronunciation. Gen. Tofer is tail and stately gen.

head Of the militia at ALL but merely held the situation

Bat If this were So the Colonel would not now need
to be detected, which be assuredly IL. think it is
pretty plain that Gov Wise is determined that al the
unnecessary fus sbal be made by him alone, and that
nobody else shall share bis gubematoral prsogatve

into continual commissions. AT any rate ibe Colonies

BROWNS EXECUTION.
The writ Of error IN Browns case has been denied
az was expected, and since the Governor has decided
not to respite him to the day fixed for the execution Of
the other convets he Will be put 70 death upon the
second day Of December, originally intended by the
Court. The ndecision Of the people whether the
event should more properly be wholly public or in
degree private has passed over ana it has been settled
that Do great number of outside spectators shall be adj
mitted 20 Cbaile town the 81. The e Of another
INVASION with view TO the of Brown, grows
from day to day. Portentous rumors come in with
every wind. A man travelled up from Harper's Ferry
last evening to say that he had signal lights dis
played from the mountains, and thought steps ought to
be taken about it, But the only steps taken, believe,
were his own, homeward. Still there were many
anxious eyes turned toward the Ferry after his de-
parure. The feeling is such tbatit is generally
asserted that persons whatever, not absent
slider ts, will be permitted TO enter Charestown on the
day of the execution. doubt, however, whether the
exclusion will be very rigid this, although the
thousand soldiers whom Governor Wise has de .ded to
bring here at that time not coming for nothing
"wHAT BECAME OF THEIR BODIEs 2"
In paragraph thus headed, Western paper asks
done with the bodies of the dead insurgents
after the Harpers Ferry outbreak, and states that no
one has ever recorded the fact Of their burial and
" one knows that burial was ever given them" The
Colonel in charge at Hsrper's Ferry tel that the
bodies all hurriedy and loose thrown into the
ground but were eXhumed the same night, and car
RED away for dissection at a medical college in a town
not far Observation-Disclosures, believe | understood
from bis manner of speaking that th disposition Of the
bodies was not objected by the authorities but
reaoi favored by them.
