ONE OF JOHN BROWNS MKN.-An aged man,
with strange, eventful history, was this
morning discharged from the Monroe county
jail, In which he had been confined two months
on charge preferred by his sister OF embez-
cling money owned by her. His name is Thomas
H. Taylor, and he is about IS years old In his
youth he studied law In this city with Judge
Hastings, and was regarded as q man OF uncom-
mon ability as lawyer, speaker and esSayist
He was one OF John Browns followers when
the latter made his memorable raid upon Har-
per's Ferry. Taylor is said to be the sole sur
vivor OF old ''OSsawattomies" companions
and was twice taken prisoner, passing some OF
his time in Libby Prison. or late years his
mind is said to have become impaired and the
action which resulted In his being arrested is
attributed to that fact He now makes Mace
