TWO GREAT sLuNbERs THAT
MADE FOR NEGRO EMANcIPA-
TIoN AND NATIONAL UNITY.
By j. Dallas Bowser.

When old John Brown in that me-
morable night of October 16, 1859,
hurled his Javalin against the Gibral-
tar of the slave power at Harper's
Ferry with design to rend it asunder
and make henceforth an unobstructed
passage for the slaves of the Old Do
minion to the haven of human liber-
ty, he committed a blunder that was
farcical, almost laughable, but for
its serious purpose and glorious af-
termath.
For only an unreasoning fanatic
would have attacked the South, en-
trenched as it was behind a bulwark
of tradition, the prestige of aristocra-
tic caste, and the odious fugitive
slave laws, with only a score of men,
poorly equipped as to arms, and in
experienced as to military training.
The why and wherefore of this
ridiculous blunder was John Browns
expectation that the slaves of Virginia
would rally by hundreds and thou
sands to his little band of seventeen
whites and five Negroes from the
North, and fight their way through
to freedom with pixies, Discarding the
employment of fire arms, choosing
not to take human life unless alb
solutely necessary.
OF course the slaves failed to rally;
less than a hundred coming to his
assistance. In case they had ten
thousand of them, unarmed except
with pixies they could have made no
effectual resistance against the dis
ciplined forces of the Virginia militia.
Yet though Browns crusade failed
in its immediate purpose, its conse-
quences were far reaching. His was
