fugitiVes from justice from Arkansas, and taken

Forsome time he had been laboring under pecuniary
embarrassment.

During the past week the surrounding country

tn. plan to Rescue John prewn.

The idea OF an extensive combination TO res
cue JcHx BRows has been greatly ridiculed
by the Black Republican Journals. and the
prompt and vigorous precautions OF Governor
wfeK made the subject Of much affected mer-
riment. 1t now turns ont that, beyond all
doubt a combination existed ofsufIlcient mag
nitude to warrant the steps which were taken
by the late Executive, and that II is owing 10
his decided and thorough performance OF MS
duty that the most dangerous ana formidable
insurrectionist In the United States did not
escape the just penalty Of his crimes. We
gave in Yesterdays paper the remarks Of An
DREW HUNTER, Esq, who prosecuted BRowN
at Charles.own, before The joint committee OF
the Assembly on The Harper's Ferry affair
None who know Mr.. HUNTER, will be likely
to question the soundness of his judgment an y
more than The integrity Of his character. He
says that the report of five hundred men bein z
organized In the mountains, was first given by
a member Of the Pennsylvania House of Rep
resentatives. and ajter,cards so con frmed as TO
leave no doubt Of the fact. The spies reported
the organization, and Mr.. HUNTER was enabled
TO find it out within forty-eight hours after
the in tended rescue was giveL up. 1t is re-
markable that il was then, for the first time,
that JOHN BROWN agreed to his wife =
When she first proposed to come his language
was. For Gods sake, do not come here.' 1t
will he remembered thar, a, last, JOHN BROWN
himself admitted that there had been a plan
for his rescue, and that ii had only been given
up on account of the overwhelming amount
of military force which was concentrated at
and about Charlestown.

We had 40 idea thai the Black Republican
exchequer was in such a deplorable condition.
Most OF the surplus funds, that might have
done good service in SEwAED's campaign OF
l-6p, were probably expended in JOHN Brown 3
campaign OF 1859. Doubtless they now wish
hey had their money bacl, again. The Tfj5Hne
says the epubiicans have the most voters,
but the smallest amount of money. This is
hard The principle, ii thinks, is on one side,
but the weight of purse on the other. De-
cidedly bad prospect for the Black Repub Bill
cans. Perhaps one object Of Fir. SEWARD

campaign. In This connection, it is stated 10y
a London letter writer that British officials
have determined to appropriateabouta million
of dollars in the support OF a Black Republi-
can candidate for The next Presidency, hoping
,hereby to bring about n dissolution o! The
Union and bring about an alliance between
