FROM WASHENGTO

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18th.
Mr.. Army of Kansas was examined at
length before the Harper's Ferry inquisition
Committee His testimony mainly related
to occurrences which took place in Kansas
during the border troubles. With regard to
John Brown movements in 1853, Army says
that he, Brown, proposed to locate some
where and run off slaves from the South 50
as to make that kind Of property insecure.
Army testified that he opposed this mode OF
interference with slavery Brown said he
dlsllked the do nothing pQlicy of the abIii-
tlonlsts east. and said they never would fleet
anything by their milk and water principles.
As to Pa0ublicans Brown IN ought they
were OF no account. for they were opposed
to carrying the war into Africa. They "cre
opposed to meddling with slavery in the
States where it existed. Brown said has doc
trlne was to free the slaves by the sword.
Army wanted to know how he reconciled that
with his Quaker peace principles which he
heldwhen he first knew him more than 20 years
ago. Brown said that the aggressions OF slavery
the murders and rob5eries perpetrated upon
himself and members of his family, and vlO-
lations OF Law by Atchison and others in
Kansas from 1853 to that time had convine-
ed him that peace was but an empty word
and he repeated his dislike to the Republl-
can party and alleging they were crdvens.
That they had refused to assist him. Army
testified that he declined to have anything
further to do with his operations. Mr..

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE YOUNG
CIR i.
From the Chicago Tribune

From the CnlcagO lrloune.
On Monday night the police picked up a
young woman who had attempted to commit
suicide under the influence of despair She
is a good looking Scotch girl, very intelli-
gent, and evidently possessing a fine educa-
ton. Her age is about twenty, and she
bears every appearance of having been well
brought up in early life. and surrounded
with all the advantages of social life. She
wished to suppress her real name. and there
fore gave the fictitious name of Anna
Graham. She says she removed from Scot
land some time since to Toronto, c. W,
where her parents recently died. She left
Toronto some months since, and went to
New York city, where she worked for a
while for sewing girl, but the bare pitt
ance of wages that she received would not
support her, and she once more returned to
Toronto, and lived with her brothers and
sisters. They were very kind to her, but
from some cause about five DAYS ago she left
them and came to this city via the Pittsburgh
and Fort Wayne Road. When she arrived
here, which was Saturday night, the con-
ductor detained her baggage, a single trunk
She put up at hotel Sunday night, but as
she had no money, was obliged to leave
there Monday. She then wandered about
the city, but could find no employment, and
being homeless and penniless, of course soon
became discouraged and disheartened.
On Monday night she went to the depot
and tried to obtain her trunk, but it was in
the custody of the baggage master, and he
refused to give it up. Entirely disheartened,
she left the depot, and resolved to kill her
self. She therefore wandered along the
track to some distance from any house, and
laid herself down across the rails, and soon
fell asleep. She knows not how long she
laid there, but was awakened by some one
She arose, and again wandered on until she
came to a sheet Office, when she took off her
shoes and bonnet and laid down upon them,
intending to freeze to death. She knew
nothing farther until she found herself in
tho watch house, policeman having found
her and brought her in. She is now in good
hands who will see that she is properly
cared for.

The q" Wide Awakes."

As these semi.military organizations Of
tho Black Republicans are exciting no lit
tie attention throughout the country at the
present time, and as many persons seem
to be anxious to know something about
their origin and objects, we clip the follow.
ing notice from one of our exchanges
The Hartford Times says that the
name Wide Awake was the designation
by which John Browns company was
known in Kansas, and was adopted in
compliment to that martyred hero' "
Mr.. Seward said, also, in one of his late
speeches, that the "Wide Awake" organ
ization was relied on TO assist at the
inauguration of Lincoln fact which has
been before hinted. The "Wide Awakes''
have a regular military drill, and an or
ganization throughout the North. The
ayowal of Mr.. Seward proves that it is
designed to support by force, if necessary
to their plans, the measures of an aboli.
ton Administration. The organization
has been effected under the disguise OF
campaign clubs; but under this disguise
the Abolitionists Of the North are at this
moment completely organized as a miii-
try b0cly Of men.

Tuesday Next.

On Tuesday next, the 9th of October,
the frecmen of Pennsylvania will have to
decide at the bsllot-boxes who shall be
their Chief Magistrate for the ensuing
three years whether it shall be HENRY d.
FosTEa, the Democratic candidate, or
ANDREW G. CURTIN, the Republican
candidate.
On the one hand is presented pure,
honest and able statesman, against whose
character, personal or political, we defy
criticism, and challenge his enemies, if he
has any, to point to single disreputable
act in his private or public life. A devo.
ted friend of the interests of his native
State, the Democracy point with pride and
pleasure to Gen. Foster and claim that
he is worthy to receive the suffrages Of all
his fellow. citizens.
On tho other side is ANDREW G. CUR-
TIN, than whom more unprincipled or
unscrupulous politician does not exist in
the State. He was Wing, then bitter
and malignant Know Nothing, and now
he processes to be reuglar "higher law

be the 'power behind the throne, create,

below mediocrity, and as to his honesty
the less that is said about it the better fol-

Such, fellow citizens Of Columbia coun.
ty, are the men between whom you are to

Morrill, Tariff Bill.

The New York Evening Post, edited
by VIM. G. Bryant, Fr.e Trader, who is
at the head of the Redublican ticket in
York State; dissects after the following
fashion the provisions of the bill which the
Republicans abuse the Senate for not pass {.
ing.
We refer to 1t for two reasons-First to
show that the Republicans are not what
they have claimed to be; and second to
say that if Pennsylvania desires tariff :,
they must look to the Democrats for it.
The Democrats are supporting tariff man
for Governor, the Republicans are oppos-
ing him. The Democrats support RAN
DALI, tariff man for Congress, the Re.
publicans oppose him. The Democrats
are in favor of a proper and judicious tariff
--one that will use rich and poor alike.
But the bill the Republicans tried to pass
was an outrage; The Post says,
"There is sugar, for instance, a COM
modify of universal use,-a necessity of
life, to all classes, which enters in thou
sand ways into articles intended for human
food, which is now sufficiently taxed, but
which by this scheme is to be taxed still
more. 1t enacts duty of one cent per
pound on brown sugars imported, and on
syrups on the better class of raw sugar
one and half cents on refined sugars
two and half cents; and on colored su,
gar and candy five cents. How in the
world, under these provisions, are the
poorer classes ever to get any sugar except
the very coarsest kinds. Two and a half
cents pound more on refined sugars would
place them wholly beyond the reach of any
but rich people. Others will be compelled
to sweeten their tea and coffee, to mix their
cakes, to preserve theiI fruits, with the
dirty looking browns, or else to forcgo the
use of these products. But for what end
Merely to help along few Louisiana
sugar growers, who are staggering under
the burdens Of trade that can only be
upheld by means of government boun.
ties.
On chains, on saws, cross-cut or for mills,
on screws and other articles, the duty is
raised from twenty-four to fifty per cent.
The consumption Of these commodities is
immense they are used by millions, and
the duty imposed on them will cut off their
importation and make them exorbitantly
dear. Then who is to be benefited by this
taxationl Not the treasury, which now
derives large revenue from the importa.
ton of these articles, and will derive it nc
longer, but few dozen men in Providence
and elsewhere, for whose sake millions Of
American citizens are to be heavily taxed

Extract From General Fosters
Phila. Speech.

1 will advert to question in which the
people of Philadelphia, as manufacturing
and commercial people, feel great interest
"a question on which they have the right
to know the opinions of the candidates,
presented for their suffrages. In this very
city, not more than ten days ago, the cap.
tain.general Of the Republican party made
an assault upon me, declaring that am a
free.trade man; that the record of my life
public and private, exhibited the fact. that

free.trade, and against protection to Amer.

by Col. A. X Mcclure, chairman of the

profound ignorance of history. Mr..
Mcclure charges that, from the earliest
period of my political life, have been op
posed to the doctrine of my protection

question of protection to American indus
try thus came up in Congress there sat

than Hannibal Hamlin,the Republican can

Are our Democratic friends thoroughly

DEMOCRATS, We urge you, one
and all, to be up and doing. The Cub
ernatorial election in Pennsylvania, at this
time, involves the most important results,
not only to the State, but likewise to the
Nation. Upon it may depend the ques.
ton of the perpetuity of the Union itself
In the good work of electing Gen. FOSTER,
Columbia county IAN perform an impor.
tant part, and vote here counts just as
much as it does in Berks, or any other
County in the Commonwealth. Again
then, we urge upon the active men of the
party the necessity Of having every Demo.
cratic voter brought to the polls--no mat
ter whether it rains or shines on election
day--and that can only be accomplished
by a faithful performance of the prelimi-
nary duties, and making the necessary
arrangements, in advance of the day.
