The Haytian John Brown Fund--NOtes on
John Browns NIen.

The amount of 50, 721 As has been dis
bursed by Mr.. Redpath to John Brown
family and friends. There remains to be
disbursed 1923 o..
Of the five followers Of John Brown who
escaped from Hsrper's Ferry, only three
now survive-0Wen Brown, F. J. Merriam,
and o. P. Anderson. Tidd Joined Burn
sides expedition, and died at Roanoke Is
land on the eve Of a victory. Barclay
Coppoc, whose brother was executed at
CharlestoWn, was one of the victims Of the
Platte Bridge atrocity. John Brown Cook,
Thompson and Leary all leave widows, all
poor. Leeman, Kagi, Hazlitt, Tidd, Cope
land, and, it is believed, Stevens also leave
parents, all poor.
Mrs. Hazlitt has given four sons to the
Federal army. One was wounded at
Gaines Mill, and we are told that the last
seen of another, she was fighting the reb-
els hand to hand like a tiger"
The brother of Tidd is in the Western
army.
Owen Brown is physically unfit for mill
tary duty.
John Brown, Jr, was in Montgomery's
regiment until sickness compelled him to
resign. His place is now filled by Mr..
Hoyt, the young Massachusetts lawyer who
volunteered to defend John Brown at
Charlestown.
The mother of the Coppocs is old, infrm,
poor, childless, and almost blind. Europe
and America have produced many heroic
women, but it is doubtful whether the an
nails of Rome, England or America pre-
serve the memory Of truer heroine than
this blind old mother
The two men, Logan and Fitzhugh, who
seized Cook as he was escaping North,
after winning his confidence as Masons,
are both in Jail, one in a fellon's cell, the
other under guard as a traitor, and both
will probably be hanged, as Cook said they
would.
Copeland, the father of the colored man
who was hanged at CharlestoWn, announc-
ed that he was in q regiment on the spot
where his son was murdered.-N 7. TFi-
6liHe.
Inasmucb as Messrs. Logan and Fitz.
hugh made themselves so efficient in aiding
the recapture of Cook for the purpose o.
having him hung for treason against th'
negro-breeding State of Virginia, we hop'
from the bottsm of our hearts that thest
scoundrels will be strung up for commit
ting treason against the Union. Fitzhugl
is a degenerate nephew of Mrs. Gerri
Smith.

m. nnpos,tion--Khar ii Aims at.

The following well put statement is
from the Providence Journal. 1t tells the
whole story in narrow space and should
be a lesson to any man who should think
of aiding at the present time, party pol
icy against the administration:
"a strong opposition party is Organi-
King all over the country. 1t takes Vari-
Gus names. Its leaders are Democrats,
Peace Democrats, Conservatives, as the To-
cality may best demand. Its svowed pur-
poses are IS various as the interests and
the sentiments, the feelings and the pas
sions to which it appeals. But its real
purpose is everywhere the same, to getpos-
session Of power and patronage Of the
Government to restore the party that was
so long guided by JEFF Davis, and Toombs,
and Slidell, and Cobb, and Floyd, and that
eliminated in the election Of that eminent
conservative, James Buchanan over that
shocking radical, John c. Fremont; and
its real effect, under whatever name and
with whatever pretext it appears, IS the
same; to embarrass the administration in
the council and in the field, to impede the
prosecution Of the war, and to hold out to
the rebels across the line, and to the hos
tile powers across the ocean, the spectacle
Of divided people and hesitsting policy

UNION STATE TICKET.
FOR coEGREss,
R. P. sPALDING, Of CuyahOga.

OF course the English press regards the
defeat of General Pope's army below
Washington as ruinous to the National
cause. We shall yet however, display
vitality and power that will be anything
but agreeable to our enemies, secesh or
British. The British journalists pronounced
the raising of a new army Of three hun
dred thousand men a thing impossible
But it is a thing done The whole North
swarms with new troops, and the tide has
been turned against the rebels without
making much use of the new levies. The
rebels have been beaten badly in their des-
perate effort to invade the North, and all
the ground they have gained since the re-
treat Of our army before Richmond will be
speedily recovered, and this time we shall
20 forward into the heart of the Gulf
States. In the meantime, it is fortunate
that people in this country have lost their
feeling of difference for English opinions,
and care very little whether the Southern
Confederaey is or is not recognized abroad.
Among the latest advices from England is
that quite a Confederate feet is being fit
ted out in that country. England is beau
tiful neutral power. She is educating
American sentiment very rapidly to crave
a settlement of accounts with her. Her
day of reckoning for her course toward US
during our home troubles will come.

General Buell..


A Washington dispatch to the Cincinnati
Gazette says Buell. is to be relieved from
command in Kentucky and assigned to
indianapolis, to organize parOled prison
ers into regiments. Buell. beat Bragg in
a foot-raee to Louisville, but the race
never would have been necessary had he
not passively allowed Bragg all summer
in which to create an army, and then
suffered him to march north from Chat
tanooga. Louisville is safe, but the ground
won by the bloody encounter Of Donelson
and Shiloh is abandoned, and the crops
of North Alabama, Tennessee and Ken
tueky, without which the Confederate
army would suffer greatly the coming
winter are relinquished to the enemy
Had he shown a 1.-THE Of the activity in
preventing Bragg from collecting an army
that he did in outmarching it, affairs IN
Kentucky would present at this moment
a much more hopeful aspect than they do.

I" 4 si'bscribsr,' whom we suspect to be
some marrow minded Leech) asks us why
we advertise DR.. AYERS Pills, and we will
give him our seven reasons for so doing.
The first, second and third are that we are
paid for it. The fourth is, we know them
by experience to be good. The fifth Is that
DR.. Ayers preparations being reoomnen-
ded by better men than we-by physicians
of the highest talent and the deapest learn
ing in the land, we are well sustained in
our own convictions of their value. The
sixth is that they are cheap as well as use
full. The last but not least is that they
have done and are doing an amount Of
good in this conn. unity which our old fogy
friend if he could repeat himself ten thou
sand times, might never hope to equal,
and we trust by making them known, to
render some service to our readers as we'll
as ourselves.-C Christian Advocate.

Eight thousand troops captured and pa
rolled at Harpers Ferry, are en- route for
Camp Douglas, where they will be in COM
mand Of Colonel Daniel Cameron; of the
65th Illinois, who has already arrived here.
The Goth Ohio, and Phillips battery, have
already arrived. The Scotch regiment
(65th nlinois) and two companies of the
New York 5th artillery, two Indiana bat
teries, and an Ohio battery; are due this
morning. The 82d. Ohio, 111th, 1l5th and
120th New York, will arrive tonight; the
l25th New York, Maine and Vermont
regiment, tomorrow; and the lst and Sd
Maryland probably on Monday.
It is due to the gallant Scotch regiment
to state that they had neither part nor par
eel in the surrender. They arrived upon
the ground after the fight commenced and
had to fight their way in. They gallant
ly held the positions assigned them until
the order to surrender was given, and only
then surrendered under protest They
come back to us without tarnish upon
| their laurels.
Colonel Cameron has been assigned COM
mand of the whole force, by the Adjutant
General, which will remain here until an
exchange is effected The Colonel has
been assured that his own regiment shall
be exchanged within month, and be once
more assigned to the army of Virginia

The shOotins of Gen. Nelson.

The telegraph confirms the startling
rumOr that was in oiroulatiOni yesterday,
to the effect that Gen. Nelson was killed
yesterday morning at the Gait House, in
Louisville, by Gen. JEFF. C. Davis, who, it
is stated, was most grossly insulted by the
deceased General, by being slapped twice
in the face.
General Nelson has had the reputation
of being the most cruel and severe officer
in the service. Some of the stories We
have heard of his cruelty to our soldiers
are perfectly sickening. He never should
have been permitted to command Ameri'
can soldiers.

As Democratic orators now talk hippant-
ly about the Abolition party, and set up the
claim that there are only two parties in
this country-the Abolition and Democratic
parties-it would be well for these gentle
men to remember that the Democratic party
of Ohio have endorsed stronger abolition
sentiments than any other party that ever
had an existence in the State. In the Dem
ocratic State Convention, held at COlum-
bus in l84s, the following resolution was
adopted
ResoEpsd, That the people of Ohio, now,
as they ever have done, look upon the in
stitution Of slavery as an evil, and unfa-
vorabIe to the fall development of the spirit
and practical benefits of free institutions,
and that entertaining these sentiments,
they viii at all times feel it to be their duty
to use AL POWER clearly given by the
terms Of the National compact, BSs to
MITIGATE and finally to ERADICATE
the evil
tis curious fact that the present edi-
tor of the Ohio Statesman has often bOasted
that he was the author of the above resO-
luton.

Land Monitors.

The following proposals we find in the
Cincinnati Gazette:
propose to build for the Government
nine "Land Monitors, or Engines of
War; to cost 5000 dollars piece, to weigh
1900 pound each, 25-horse engineand all,
with coal, water, ammunition, knives, ETC.,
included in the above weight; each to be
handled by two men; to discharge from
each 10000 shots in half an hour; to be
capable of running twenty miles an hour
over any grade less than forty-fve degrees;
to be perfectly manageable in turning
climbing or descending; to clear more OBJ
structions from artillery roads than 500
men; to reap the rebels clean by divisions; !;
to resist canister, grape and all small shot;
to engineer the advance car myself; torisk
all the Government can risk-my life
each man in the nation can do only this.
also propose to furnish use of pattern
of the engine free of cost, on our plan.
Now, if any doubt my ability to accom-
plish the above, refer them to what have
accomplished in mechanical invention.
If any doubt my sincerity, 1 only answer

my country to propose anything am not

Colonel Ford asks the public to suspend
Judgment with regard to his completely in
the surrender of Harper's Ferry. He
claims that he but Obeyed the order Of
General Miles, though much against his
Judgment and inclination. BE says, how
ever, that be has lost the order which di-
rected the surrender. This is unfortunate.
Ohio would rejoice to see Colonel Ford re-
iieved from the reprOach that has been
cast upon him. Let judgment be suspend
ed. and let the Colonel be allowed an Op-
portunity to s1eulpate himself.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
PAIN GRAVITY, mAasEr1sm.


These are no times for anything but facts. And 10
length fact is known in medicine; it is this-tha
pain is relieved and disease cured by
PURGATION WITH BRANDRETH'S PILLS.
This Is as much fact in medicine As that the ma
net is fact in navigation, that gravity is fact
astronomy, or that Light Is but heat rarifed, bu
which piece OF glass can oondense into heat again
But the great fact Of the present day is that
BRANDRETH'S PILLS
invariably open the bowels, and that all the humors
which cause pain are controlled by natural affinity By
this GREAT MEDICINE.
IMPORTANT TO THOSE LIVING IN FEVER AND
AGUE DISTRICTS.

Jersy has used Brandreths Vegetable Universal Pills
for fifteen years in his family, and all his hands,
