"OId JOhn Browns"

Tomorrow is. the day named in the
sentence for the execution Of "Old John
Brown" and as a standing army has
been called into requisition, we presume
he will be chung by the neck until he is
dead, DEADH' We do not believe In
hanging any man for any crime; but as
Brown and his confederates have violated
a law the penalty Of which is death, we
are not disposed to complain nor do we
think any Northern man, or even friend
of Brown, should. And further, if he
and others are thus to be dealt with for
the crimes committed, we think all who
were accessory or who were instigatOrs,
or, in any way promulgators of senii-
ments or doctrines that would tend TO pro-
duce such acts as those committed by
Brown and associates, let them hail from
the North or South, should suffer a like
penalty! We wonder if Gov. Wise, who
is so eager to secure atonementff6 for often
ded laws, has forgotten that be, during
the last Presidential campaign, declared
that if Mr.. Fremont was elected Presi-
dent, he would take the Government Ar
senal at Harper's Ferry, and with arms
march upon the Federal Capitol at Wash
ington If be has, the country has not.
Has he forgotten, too, that during the
same year, the Government Depot at Ii
berty, Mo-, was taken possession Of for
chilly, and the arms used against the peo-
pie in Kansas! H he has, the country
has not. @ g51i
We donot mention these circumstances
to palate "Old Browns offence, but as
a reminder that there are Joshua Gid
dings,' q Stewards and "Lineolns''li in
the South as well as in the North; and as
a lover Of the Union, and one who desires
ardently its perpetdation we believe in
dealing alike with traitors, and The utter
ers of ~traitorous sentiments calculated to
destroy the, Union, come from where they
may. 6 5 sod ,di ag

l know notthe object of your inquiry,
or the use to be made of my answer; but

inquiring particularly into the motives OF.

fore, l will say, in answer to your re-
quest, that the late Hon. d.. G.. Brode-
rick, on the day of the duel, after he was
wounded, and before reaction had taken
place, when | was standing over him, as
one of his medical advisers, trying to
calm him, and telling him not to exert
himself too much in talking, he holding
M of my hands in both Of his, did use
the following language, and did address
the same to me, viz: ~ am killed. am

Of the remarks of Mr.. Broderick but as
to the question, What did he say? there
