JOHN Brown AND HIS FAMILY.-The citi-
zens of Boston who sympathize with John
Brown and his stricken and distressed family,
held a meeting at fremont Temple, Saturday
evening, for the purpose of expressing their
feelings in the most appropriate and effective
manner. Speeches marked with great power
and beauty were made by John A. Andrew
Esq, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Wendell Phil.
lips, and Rev. Jacob NJ Manning, all of which
were received with warm expressions of ap-
proval by one of the largest audiences ever
sembled in the Temple. Mr. Emerson spoke
of Captain Brown as distinguished for his
simple artless goodness and sublime courage,
one of the rarest of heroes, a pure idealist,
with no by-ends of his own. The Governor
of Virginia had pronounced his eulogy in a
manner which shamed the moderation of our
timid parties. TWAS easy to see what fav-
orite he would be with history, which played
mad pranks with temporary regulations. And
if he must suffer he will drag official gentle
men into an Immortality most unenviable, and
of which they have already some disagreeable
forebodings. But they were met to think of
relief for the family of John Brown, very
large and very needy of help. 1t comprised
his brave fellow sufferers in the Charlestown
jail, the fugitives still hunted in the mount
aims of Virginia and Pennsylvania; the SYM
pathisers with him in all the states and al
most every man who sees what tigers thirst
threatens him in the malignity of public sem
timent in the Southern states. In administer
ing relief to his family they should remember
all whom his fate concerns all who are in
sympathy with him, and not forget to aid
him in the best way by securing freedom and
independence in Massachusetts. The remarks
of Mr.. Emerson were received with great ap-
plause. On leaving the hall he placed $50 in
the hands of the Finance Committee for the
benefit of the cause. The amount subscribed
and collected at the meeting is estimated at
about $500.

Browns Vnsnuftv.


Mr. Editor MANY northern men fully be-
lieYe that Brown is insane. Donot most peo-
pie believe so? Those whose attention has
been most given to the various causes, remote
and proximate, which affect mental soundness
and who can most readily detect manifesto
tons of unhealth, entertain no doubt that his
clear head was led astray by the ignis fatuus
of disease when he drew up the provisional
Government paper and acted as Command
er-in-Chief," &c. The thing is precisely what
every Insane Hospital can produce counter
parts of, only that it is SO mixed up with the
general excitement of the day that all do not
calmly discriminate. Brown is called "a
HERO" and so he is. No one, most assuredly,
can doubt his heroic courage or his conscien-
tious conviction.
But MI Editor, it is an humble thing to be
a man. The ablest and best men are frail crea-
lures and liable to have the brain affected by
powerfully exciting causes, more especially
when, as in Browns case, there exists la
tent predispostion to insanity. Cannot some
thing more be done for him on this ground :?
Have northern men done their duty in
this respect? Brown is none the less che
roic' if we recognize existing facts. Certain
ly, there is nothing creditable to his knowledge
and judgment in presuming on the readiness
of the degraded slaves generally to join his
standard at the moment even aside from the
insane vagary of the provisional govern
ment." An excited magination-morbidly
excited-was the source of the "tacts" which
prompted Browns action.
In maintaining that his clear head and strong
heart was led captive by influences over which
he had no control, influences hereditary, oper-
ated upon by trials quite enough to crush a
mortal man, we do Brown no discredit Had
hs been himself he would have been quite as
heroic, quite as ready to die for an idea, but he
would quite likely have wished to know whetb-
er the idea was a rational one. Must that
most kind-hearted and courageous man be Civ
en- up, when proofs of that degree of unhealtb.
which should clear him, can readily be pro-
duced
Can nothing more be done, Mr.. Editor ?
Must our age be disgraced by the non-recogni.
ton of manifest insanity? Those who doubt
its existence in this case, on account of the
conference, "method, and GOODNESS manifested.
but betray Ignorance of an important form Of
cerebral disease

The DIFFICULTIES OF KIDNAPPING.-It is
understood that Capt. Bacon has found the
business of returning slaves SO improbable
that he does not propose to engage in it as
regular profession. He was to have received
$500 for his services in restoring Columbus
Jones to Florida. He was bound for Phiadel-
phia with cargo of stone, but first went to
Norfolk to deliver up the negro, where he had
to pay 5000 to the authorities for the trouble,
giving them draft on his owners Returning
to Philadelphia with his stone, the parties to
whom it was consigned refused to accept it,
and he had equally bad luck with his return
cargo. Returning to Hyannis, he found that
the original kidnappers were in trouble, and
they refused to pay him the $500; and to cap
the climax of his sorrow, he was himself ar
rested and held for trial, having thus far found
Jordan a hard road to travel. 1t is probable
that the limits of Barnstable County will not
long be left underlined. Capt Bacon assures
those who are interested that no haste need be
made on his account, as he has had quite
enough of this kind of speculation.

Hon. EDWARD BATEs.-The Saint Louis
Democrat denies that the Saint Louis Repnb-
lican has or can have any authority to discre-
dit the statement that has been published ex-
pressing the political views of Mr.. Bates. The
Republican is one Of the old Wing papers
which went over to the border ruffian demo-
ocracy, some time ago. The Democrat says
"The Republican has not been admitted to
any political association with Mr.. Bates for
two or three years. He broke with it on the
Kansas question" And that journal adds -
1--WE state by authority, and as an absolute
fact that Mr. Bates does endorse every word
and sentiment contained in that statement"

Personal MATTER IN THE HoUsE.-In the
House of Representatives, Monday, Mr.. Burn
ham of Lowell offered an order contemplating
the appointment of a committee of investiga-
ton, with the usual powers, to inquire whether
any member OF the legislature had, without
authority, affixed the signature of the clerk to
any bill or resolve whereby the rights of the
commonwealth to any property are affected.
This curious order seems to have been aimed
at Mr.. Charles Hale, who stated, in explana.
ton, that when the "act i'll relation to convey
ances of lands and flats belonging to the COM
wonwealth" came down from the Senate, the
signature of the clerk of that branch was want
ing to certain part of the act. The speaker
added that he placed the initials of the clerk, in
pencil, upon the bill, to indicate to him, when
it was sent back, the place where his signature
should be placed. He desired an investigation.
The subject was discussed by several members,
and finally the order was indefinitely postponed
by large vote.

Vicious BOYS ARREsTED.-Andrew Nc
Farland and Henry Smith, minors, connected

had been arrested on suspicion early Sunday
morning, and the property was recovered Nc
Farland has spent number Of years in the
school. They were taken before the Police
Court Of Roxbury, and held in $500 bonds each

ter county.

DARING ATTEMPT AT HIGHWAY RoBBERY.
crime was attempted upon the person of VIM.
Barber, jeweller, by young man named Web
ster Wheeler. 1t appears that Wheeler, who
is about eighteen years of age, and son of JON
athan Wheeler, of Windham, Me-. came to
Worcester on Wednesday of last week, from
East Templeton, where he had been employed
since April last, in pursuit of work, and re-
turned back as far as Fitchburg the same day,
stopping that night at the American House.
On Thursday night having spent that day in
Fitchburg, he stopped at the Rostone House,
and occupied the same room with young man
named futile, from Stowe, stranger to him,
but there on the same errand. After retiring,
they conversed at some length about their i'll
success, when Wheeler proposed to Tuttle to
join him in another scheme and stated that he
had followed Barber, the jeweller, that night,
from his store to his house on Central street,
and ascertained that he took with him his val
uables in his trunk and he proposed that they
should, the next friday evening, arm them
and rob him. Fearing the conversation might
be overheard, Wheeler deferred completing
his plans till the next morning, Tuttle mean
while seeming to be friendly to the arrange
ment. Early Friday morning, Tuttle informed
officer Kimball and Mr. Barber of the facts,
who SO arranged their plans as to secure the
capture of the bold offender. Mr.. Barber
started for home with his stock of jewelry Fri
day evening, as usual, followed by Wheeler
and futile. Arriving at favorable spot,
Wheeler lifted heavy hemlock club to strike
his intenned victim, when he was seized by
his companion, Tuttle, and detained till the
officer came from his concealment and secured
his prisoner.
Wheeler was taken to the Fitchburg jail for
temporary security, and on Monday morning
was bound over in the sum of $1,000 for trial
at the next criminal term of the Superior Court
for this county. He was lodged in Jail in this
city in default of bail. Amasa Norcross ap
peared as counsel for the prisoner at the ex-
animation.
