The LAST OF The HARPsK's FERRY RAID.
= The Senate special committee to.invessi.
gate the facts il the John Brown Harper's
Ferry invasion c'ossd their labors and
reported on Friday last, Messrs. Mason, Of
Va, Davis, of Miss, and Fitch, Ct Ind i,
presenting majority report, and Messrs
Collamer, of Vt, and Doolittle, of Wis,
that of the minority. s=r fs.l
Both reports agree that there is no evil
dezce whatever, duplicating any person or
persons, at the North OF elsewhere, in the
JOHN Brown raid, and that Brown and the
band acc mpanying him alone We're knowing
70 the murder"us enterprise. The OILY
notable difference between the two reports
Is, that The majority attributes old Browns
infatuation 70 the general anti slavery dis
cushions 1t the North; while the minority
consider such a conclusion unwsrran Ell
undsr the circumstances. 80 ends the Har-
