NEW YoRK. Oct 27

New YORK, Oct. 27.
The Herald publishes series of letters
from Col. Forbes, the author of the in
struction books for Guerrilla warfare found
in Browns house, to various Republicans.
but principally to P. B. Sanborn, Sec'y of
the Massachusetts, Emigrant Society, and
DR.. S. G. Howe, of Boston. One letter
addressed to the latter, dated May, 1858,
is prefaced by the following memoran-
dunn "Please show to Messrs. Sanborn,
Lawrence & Co.,-copies will be sent to
Governor Chase, who found money, Gov.
Fletcher, who contributed arms, and 9TH
ers interested, as quickly as possible."-
The letter gives the plan of Forbes and
Brown for an insurection. Forbes plan
was, with carefully selected colored and
white persons, to organize along the
northern slave frontier of Virginia and
Maryland, and especially series of slaves,
each one of which operations would carry
off in one night, and from the same place,
some 20 to so slaves. This to be effected
once or twice week along the non-con-
tiguous parts of the line, if possible with
out conflict, only resorting to force if at
tackled. Slave women accustomed to field
labor would be nearly as useful as men.
Everything being in readiness to pass on
the fugitives, they could be sent with
such speed to Canada, that pursuit would
be hopeless.
In Canada, preparations were to be
made for their instruction and employ
ment. Any disaster that might befal a
stampede, would, at the utmost, compro-
mise those only who might be engaged in
that single one therefore, we were bound
in good faith to the abolitionists-as we
did not ieopardize their interests to the
extent of more than those engaged in the
very project. Assinst the chance Of .css .css
by occasional accidents, should be weigh
ed the advantages of series of success
full runs. Slave property would thus be-
come tntenable near the frontier. That
frontier would be pushed more and more
northward; and it might reasonably be
expected that the excitement and confu-
sion would impel the-pro slavery party to
commit some stupid blunders.
The Missouri frontiers, being so far from
the habitable part of Canada, and the po-
litical parties, ,anti-slavery and pro-slavery,
being in that State SO nearly balanced,
suggested peculiar course of action in
that quarter, which would depend in a
great measure on affairs in Kansas.
Here follow some statements of the in
genious plans which Brown had devised
for successfully running off slaves, the
details of which we omit. Also the con-
tents of Forbes letters, in which he CON-
plains of not having received the sup.
plies promised, especially those designed
for his family. He duplicates Hon. VIM
II. Seward, to some extent, and Brown
states that Amos Lawrence, of Boston
had promised him $1,000 when hostilities
had actually commenced. All these let.
tiers were written in 1858.

Total,

From this it appears that within twen-
ty miles of Harper's Ferry there are not
less than 10000 slaves, of whom probably
5000 are men.

promised that the prisoners were to have
fair and impartial trial.
The Court stated if physical inability
was shown, reasonable delay must be
granted. As to the expectation of other
counsel, that did not constitute sufficient
cause for delay, as there was no certainty
about their coming. under the circum-
stances in which the prisoners were stu
ated.
1t was natural that they should seek
delay, but the brief period remaining be-
fore the close of the term of the Court,
rendered it necessary to proceed as expe-
ditiously as was practicable, and to be
cautious about granting delays. He re-
quested the physician who had attended
Brown, to testify to his condition.
