New York Jan. 3l.-Thaddeus Hyatt, Presi-
dent of the National Kansas Aid Committee, has
written to Senator Mason a letter in answer to
the subpoena to appear before the Harper's Ferry
Investigating Committee on the LIST of February,
in which he informs the committee that while be

rogatories, because he questions the exercise, BY
a!Legislative body Of purely judicial powers thai
are neither incident 10 tie government nor confer.
red by express provision of the Constitution. In
this position Mr.. Hyatt is sustained by the best
legal advice Of MASSACHUSETTS and New York.
James Redpa;b, of Valdez. Mass, author OIL
the Life of j ohm Brown. has also been sui poenaed
to appear and testify, but he in a very spicy, and
what might be called @ very saucy letter, refuscs
to comply with the

Ferry Committee met to-day, but examined no
witnesses. The letter of Mr.. Hyatt was read, bu,
no action was taken, the Committee preferriag to
wait until MIR. Hyatt appears before them on
Wednesday. Hon. S. E. Sswell, Of Boston, acts
AS counsel for Mr.. Hyatt. There 10 but little
doubt thas if Mr.. Hyatt refuses to answer the
questions propounded to him by the Committee,
that he will be deemed a contumacicus witness,
and arraigned at the bar Of the Senate for con-
tempt. His reasons for not answering will then
be the eamc ms given in his letter. This will
cause his committal. A writ Of habeas corpus
will then issue for his release. and thus the ques-
ton will be brought before the Supreme Cour. OF
the United States and be legally listed. Mr..
Hyatt will arrive hero tomorrow. Mr.. Sanborn OF
Concord, Massachusetts, it is said, will not ap-
pear. DR.. Howe will await the legal test to be
made by Mr.. Hyatt before appearing. Giddings
has not yet arrived, and may assume the same
position taken by Hyatt.
Realf is notified to appear on Wednesday, when
the committee will probably question him on some
new point. Since the discharge of Judge Army a.
a winners before the commonwealth, he has said
that if he had not been stopped by the chairman,
he would have shown that Brown was TWENTY-FIVE
miles from ~Pottawatomie on The night thatWilkin-
son, Doyles and Sherman were killed. lie saws
Brown told him he was not with the party, but
that it was a righteous deed. One of the party
also told him Brown was not there, but was camp
ed on Midda Creek.
