Friend ia need 20 Old Brown.

Mrs Lydid. Maria Child, the philautrophic
and popular writer, is presumed to be the
lady referred to by the Herald's Richmond
correspondent, in the following passage, da-
ted October 2oth:
4 letter was received from Boston lady
asking the Governors PERMISSION TO go to
Char iestown to nurse old Brow land pedging
her honor. while she was strong abolition
ist that she would take no improper advan-
tage Of the privilege. The letter contained
n note addressed 10 Brown himself, which
she requested the Governor 10 forward to
him after he had read it. Both were I'M
questionablv the best productions | have
ever seen from the pen of woman; and,
woman like they breathed all the sentiments
Of sympathy. kindness and affection that
martyrdom in a holier cause might be suppo-
sed to elicit. She avowed herself frankly a
thorough abolitionist, while Disappearing
the means resorted to by Brown to accom-
plish the ends sought for. One thing was
apparent from these productions, and that
was she was truly sincere in her opinions;
and the Governor could not help expressing
regret that SO accomplished person should
suffer under such an illusion seemed TO
have posses. ei her. He will grant her per
mission, and guaranty her perfect immunity
from any violence or indignity in the State.
But as TO the privilege OF acting nurse to
Brown. that is a matter in the discretion OF
his phvsician at Charlestown, and be may
admit or exclude her at will. The presump-
tian Is however, that she will have entire
liberty to exercise her humane offices in be-
half Of that brave veteran" as she designa-
ted old Brown.

The Attorney General of India ma
before a Virginia Jury.

As noticed elsewhere in tie Courier, J. E.
Mcdonald, Attorney General OF the State,
has gone to Virginia, to aid in the defence of
Capt. Cook brother, in law TO his Excellency,
Governor Willard. His position before a
Virginia jury, pleading for the life of a man
under indictment for tire ason and insured.
ton will recall to the minds of many OF his old
friends, the Ossawattomie infatualon OF his
early manhood when, in opposition to the
slave power, lie favored the removal of the
Capitol to free soil" Democratic papers
throughout the country. in their anxiety to
implcate the Republican party in tie late
abolition outrage, might probably diversity
their copious extracts from the speeches of
Chase, Seward & Co., by quotation from
the celebrated free soil letter of Mr.. Mellon
aid. By parity Of reasoning, 1t would be
the easiest thing in the world to convict him
OF high treason and Instruction. IN counsel
ing species Of violence old Ossawattomie
never dreamed ONO more, no less than the
seizure of the State papers and the removal
Of the National Capitol 10 free soil. The ev
idence against Oh SO and Seward is not
more conclusive. 1t may be urged, however,
in mitigation Of his crime, that of late years,
he has repented bis early intatuation In sack
cloth and ashes, and has proven the SINGER
lily of his repentance by UNIV carried devotion
to the interests OF the peculiar institution. =
His unqualified endorsement of the present
administration, Lecompton and all. is conclu-
sive on this point His visit TO Virginia. we
may be assured, does not imperil his person
al safety.

AnULrEsArEp LlQrogs.-A case recently tried
in the Court of Common Pleas of Lancaster CO,
Pa. which we find reported in the Lancaster
Express, indicates that method Of legal pro-
cedure exists, which, if generally resorted to- may
do much to break up the whole system Of manu-
factaring drugged liquors. The plaintiffs, who
were extensive liquor dealers, sued the defendant,
who is hotel keeper in Lancaster, for the recoy-
cry of claim OF forty six dollars. for barrel of
"ola rye" The defense WAS, that the In uor did
rot correspond with the sample By which it was
sold, and in fact that il contained corrosive pois-
onous substances. The latter point appears to
have been established by chemical tests to which
The liquor was subjected in the presence of the
Court jury, By the COUNSEL for the defendant
George y. MeElroy, Esq. His speech on the
occasion produced powerful impression The
verdict of the jury was in favor of the def ndant

that if any one present had doubts on the sub

was called ard a rising vote taken, which stood
Ia to s. We should like to know what unfair
ness there was in that If gentlemen did not un-
derstand the effect Of the melton, they ought not

accordance with parliamentary law, practiced
in every public meeting and legislative assembly
