1.-The leaders of the Republican party
Of Connecticut, if they ever held contrary
sentiments, are backing down from THAR
position Of sympathy with the acts and Con-
duct of John Brown. The Connecticut
Republican State Convention passed the
following resolution
Resolved, That the recent Tawless inva-
sion Of Virginia by an armed band, with q
view 10 nalest ard disturb peaceful COM
rnurity in The quiet possession of their un-
doubted constitutional rights, meets with
our unqualified condemnation.
We have ever said hat old Browns al
tack On Harper's Ferry would work good
10 the country. Those who defend him
and bis treason and murder are oaIy fit for
mad-houscs, yet they have made SO much
noise that tiInid, or time serving southern
men imagined the whole north sustained
lin. There ere good patriots II the north,
who are anti-slavery. ns there ere in The
south, who are pro.slavery. Le. these
patriots get together on URion Platform,
ccncedins 10 each thair peculiar views, os in
days Of CD, and strike hands for the coun-
try, the constitution, and the laws.

the gas had been introduced, were illuminu ted,

the ladies. At a late hour the Band turned

the postmaster mailing them to their various

batch OF letters amounts to $500. So unusual
an occurrence at that place, gave rise to much
speculation and wonder among the inhabitants.
Some even conjectured that some horrid abeli.
