HARPER's FERRY, Nov. 17th.-Midnight
A messenger has been sent to Charlestown,
to obtain reliable information regarding
events there, but be has not yet returned.
Great excitement exists here, and armed
guards are patrolling the streets and roads.
1t is rumored that 250 men armed with
rifles are encanped near Berryville, town
near Charlestown, meditatiDg the rescue of
Brown. The report is too improbable for
any confidence to be placed in it.
o'clock, A. M.--The messenger des-
patched to Charlestownhas not yet returned.
He left at 10 o'clock, and was to have been
back in two hours and half. 1t is proba-
BILE that he has been detained by some of
the guards.
HARPER's FERRY, Nov. 1S.-The messen.
ger sent to Charlestown last night, was de-
tanned outside of this town over 215 hours
before the guard would admit his departure,
and he was also detained till 4 o'clock on
his return. A very large fire occurred dur
ing the night about four miles from Charles
town, and the military were ordered out,
expecting an attack, but none was made.
The particulars Of the fire could not be as
certained by the messenger, but they will
probably be ascertained on the arrival here
of the train from Winchester.

The colored population. who are free. will
suffer much inconvenience, not to say Oppres.
sion, in consequence of Browns movement.
He has been to them the worst enemy they
ever had.
When the southern States shall expel
their free negroes, northern States will be.
come the receptacles OF them. There are
four northern Satisfactorily Indiana,
Illinois and Oregon, and we think Califor-
nia-which prohibit by their constitutions
the settlement of free negroes. Others will
set up the like prohibition so soon as the
need of exclusion is felt, as it has been felt
in Indiana and Illinois. In but two or three
States have negroes political privileges.
John Brown may be the worst enemy the
free negroes in the South ever had, but it
is only because he has gone little farther
than any other abolitionist in carrying out
the abolition doctrines. Negroes, both slave
and free, have no enemies so bad as the
whole abolition fraternity.
We wonder what it is proposed shall be
done with the negroes when the abolition.
lists shall abolish slavery in all the States.
That is question we have never yet heard
answered by anybody except persons who
believe in the perfect equality of the races.
What does Mr.. Seward propose to do with
them at the end of bis irrepressible con-
hict"?
In this view the impracticability and
worse than folly of abolition is seen. In
every State of the Union the free blacks are
nuisance to-day how will they be re-
garded when they shall form oue-fourth of
the whole population

patriotic ancestry. Soon after the mar
riage of Owen Brown, be removed with his
family to Torringford, Connecticut, where
the present Captain John Brown was born.
While he was yet in infancy or early child
hood, the parents returned to West Sims
bury, and there remained for a few years,
when they emigrated to Hudson, Ohio,
where Owen Brown became one of the prin.
cipal pioneer settlers of that then new town,
ever respected for his probity and decision
of character. He was endowed with energy
and enterprise, and went down to his grave
honored and respected, about the year 1852
or 1853, aged 81.
cat the age of eighteen or twenty the
present Captain John Brown left for Hud.
son, Ohio, and came east with the design of
acquiring liberal education through some
of our New England Colleges. His ulti-
mate design was the Gospel ministry. In
pursuance of this object be consulted and
conferred with Rev. jeremiah Hallock, then
clergyman at Conton, Connecticut, (whose
wife was relative and in accordance with
advice there obtained, proceeded to Plain
field, Massachusetts,, where, under the in
struction of the late Rev. Moses Hallock,
father of the present senior editor of the
Journal Of Commerce. fitted or nearly fitted
for college. While there pursuing bis stud
les, he was attacked with inflammation of the
eyes, which ultimately became chronic, and
precluded him from the possibility of the
further pursuit of his studies, when he re-.
turned to Ohio. Had not this infamma.
tion supervened, John Brown would not
have died Virginia culprit upon Vir-
ginia gallows, but in all probability would
have died 'on a feather bed, with D. D.
affixed to his name.'

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE Richmond
dispatches states that Edward Maffit, who
was arrested at Lynchburg as a suspected
participant in Browns foray, had been re-
leased for want of evidence.
The identifying parties have proceeded to
Wytheville, for the purpose Of examining
another suspected fugitive
Several suspected persons, mostly north
ern pedlars, have recently been arrested at
Culpepper Court House, and it appears to
be intended by the authorities to place in
confinement all who cannot give good &C.
count Of themselves.
RICHMOND, VA, Nov. l7.--Reports have
been received here to day from Charlestown,
stating that an attempted rescue of Brown
was expected, and created great excitement.
The mill airy are under arms, ready to march
at moments warning.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, Nov. 17.--Great ex-
element exists in this city, in consequence
of a rumor in circulation that the rescue of
Brown has been or is about to be attempted.
Volunteers are assembling at the armories.

Negro Philanthropy.
From the Detroit Free Press.

from lne Detroit free frcsS.
Massachusetts, philanthropy seems to run
wholly to niggers. The last vestige of law
assigning them to condition of inferiority
has been removed from the statute book,
and they now stand upon an equality in all
respects with the most privileged class.
They may vote, hold office, and form militia
ry companies. If they be poor, they are
seldom sent to aims houses, but provided for
by the munifcence of private charity. They
are, indeed, a favored class, as will be seen
by the statement which follows, which we
CLEAN from recent speech by Hon. Bepja-
min F. Butler, the Democratic candidate
for Governor at the late election. Mr..
Butler obtained his facts from official
sources, and challenged denial of them. Oh
the twenty seven hundred white paupers
who had entered the public aims houses
during the year, six hundred and sixty-six
had died. Every fourth man, woman and
child had died and was buried in the Pot.
ter's Field. Three hundred and forty. one
children un der the age of five years died in
those charnal houses. ard the estimate is
that but three per cent. of the children are
reared-three of every hundred. While
three are saved, ninety seven die. This is
the manner in which Massachusetts, treats
her white poor. Many of them are foreign
ers or the children of fore gners-can it be
that this is the cause of her treatment of
them? Can it be that the same intolerant
spirit which prompted the two years amend
ment and the dissolution of the independent
military companies composed of adopted
citizens, also prompts the management OF
the almshouses? Or is it only that Massa-
chusetts is so engrossed in the care of her
colored population, and looking after the
welfare Of the colored populations of other
States, that she has no time to give to the
care of the white unfortunates within her
limits
Probably she is animated alike by a
wicked intolerance Of foreigners, an absurd
philanthropy towards negroes, and hostile
feeling towards the slave States. This is
the Massachusetts who boasts of her educa-
tional establishments, of her intelligence, OF
her wealth and prosperity, and of her mo-
rality. This is Massachusetts,, whose peo-
pie give tens of thousands of dollars annu-
ally to the conversion of the heather in for
eign lands, and who weeps over the awful
degeneracy of our own country. This is
abolition, republican, know nothing, niger
worshipping Massachusetts,, who sheds big
tears over an imaginary black Uncle
Tom," but who has not tear to drop over
the nameless graves of the ninety seven out
of every hundred white children which die
of neglect in her own aims houses. This is
the model political and religious State OF
Massachusetts, who cherishes not the mem
cries of Webster and Choate, and who ap-
plauds the blasphemies of Garrison and
Parker. This is Massachusetts, not Of
former days, but of the present day.

Browns STEAM WAGoN.-This wonder.
full means of transportation, which was
noticed at some length in the PIONEER of
October 2lst, has arrived in this State in
charge of MIR. John A. Reed. of New
York, the builder. 1t was manufactured to
the order of Major Joseph R. Brown, of this
State, to be used in transporting goods and
stores across the Western wilderness. 1t
will travel any common road at the rate of
eight or ten miles an hour, and moves up an
ascent of thousand feet to the mile easily.
The "wagon consists of locomotive, and
its attachments, and two large and massive
ly built carts-each twenty feet in length,
so that when all together they form train
some sixty feet long. The engine is about
forty horse power; the carts will bear up
and carry weight of twenty tons each /;
the weight of the entire machinery is nearly
twenty tons.

From the Detroit Free Press.
Abolition and Free Negroes.

The raid of old Brown into Virginia, the
northern aid which he is shown to have had
in fitting out his expedition, and the sympa.
thy with him which is seen to prevail among
Abolitionists and Black Republicans, will
justify the southern States in increasing the
rigor with which free negroes within their
borders were before treated in consequence
of the intercourse with them of agents OF
the underground railroad. 1t is likely that
the legislatures Of nearly all the slave States
at their next meetings will pass laws making
it optional with free negroes to leave those
States or be converted into slaves. Until
abolitionism had reared its ugly head, the
free negroes in the South were not deemed
an offensive element of the population.
They are deemed offensive and dangerous
now. As exhibiting the spirit which pre-
walls with reference to them we subjoin a
paragraph from an Alabama paper:
From their social isolation and Irresponsible.
ity. free negroes gradually become desperate
and abandoned. The pu suits and habits of
civilization are repugnant to the negro nature.
Contact with the white man, under the re-:
straints of our institutions, induces a material
elevation in his character, but left to himself
the negro relapses into his normal condition of
barbarism. Involuntary servitude is the only
sphere in which he can be useful, and evidently
the condition God intended he should fill in
contact with the Anglo Saxon race. A free
negro in slave country is natural incendiary.
If he commits no overt act of crime or insubor.
dination, his presence is q perpetual incentive
to discomfort among his brethren in bonds.
A correspondent in Virginia of New
York paper writes:

SKAT1NG.-A great many of the young
folks, ard some Of larger growth, have
been enjoying delightful time for a few
days past, in the practice of this noble and
graceful art, upon the mill ponds on the
east side of the river. The ice is in admi-
rable condition tor skating purposes. It is
somewhat surprising that. this elegant
amusement should be monopolized here by
the sterner sex, while at Boston and other
places at the east, it is quite the fashion for
the ladies to participate in the delights Of
this exciting and health-giving pastime. In
the northern countries of Europe, the art Of
skating is an accomplishment possessed by
every lady F; and we know of no law, human
or divine, to debar the ladies OF Minnesota
from the enjoyment Of this exhilerating and
rtiaonal out door exercise.

all things are in readiness to launch the ice

trips to St. Paul. The engine is of sufi-
cient force to draw sixteen loaded cars. 1t
is said that its proprietors are ready to
enter into contracts for carrying down all
the grain that can be gathered at different
points on the river. Look out for the
engine while the bell rings !"
