Boston Munielp&l Election. An esteemed friend assured us yester day that we were in error when we noted tho election of Mr. Lincoln, to the may oralty ol Boston, as a triumph of the Black Republicans. The Journal of Commerce also denies that Mr. Lincoln was the can didate of the Republican party. %We were about to make the correction when we took up the Boston Advertiser of the 13th, in the tending editorial of which wo read : It will be obst/Tved by our report in an other column, that the municipal election yesterday resulted in tho return of His Honor Frederic W. Lincoln, Jr., to th.o mayoralty, tho honorable post which he has held to the great acceptance of his fel* low-citizens for two years pat>t. We re cord this result with much pleasure. * * We claim the result, likewiso, as a re publican victory. It is truo that Mr. Lincoln was the nominee of the “citi zens” organization, ns well as of the re publicans ; billet is likewise true that the other great political parly departed from the customary routine of party preferment in the nomination of Wightman. * * * « «• * <*» * Tho republiean* have prevailed with their can didate. While Mr. Lincoln Is w t a were partisan, there 1h not the least doubt of hla devotion to the essen tial principles of the republican party; the repub licans accordingly sustained no loas of principle by giving him thek nomination, and the people of Boston in ratifying It have testified conclusively their willingness to give the republicans thoir full Tote whenever the candidates whom they propose are of a charactor to deserve their confidence. The same paper says: There were three oandldatea for Mayor in the field:—Frederic W. Lincoln, jr., the present In- cumbsnt. who Was nominated by the republicauB and by the CitIsons’ Committee; Joseph M. Wight- mau, the candidate of tho democrats and the "roal citizensand Julius A. Palmer, the temperance candidate. Frodorlc W. Lincoln, Jr., Is re-elected by the gratlfyng plurality of 1,128 and by the clear majority cf 440. The Board of Aldermen 1r composed of nine re publicans and temperance men, and ouly four straight democrats. Po much, then, for the effect of the great Union mpetlng In Boston. writ is Mated that there ij a project on feat at the South to introduce staves into Florida from Cuba. So says the Philadelphia Inquirer. If the General Government should offer no moro opposition to a submarine railroad than it has to the operations of the under ground railroad, and the prices u! negroes continue to go up as they linve during the last five years, we have no doubt that a very good business might be done in trans- lerring at..ves Irom Cuba to the South. VlRQINIA ASP FonEION CoAl The merchants, mechanics and otiier business men of Virginia held another meeting on Wednfsday, when a committee appointed at a previous meeting submitted a Series of resolutions, looking to thn better prolec- tiun and greater encouragement of homo tnanuiactures, and to induce the cities of Virginia to engage in direct importation.— They call upon the Legislature ro aid the proposed measures, and tho citizens of the interior of the State to sustain them in their efforts to inaugurate u system of foreign commerce, which will enable them, by im parting into Virginia direct from loreign ports thoir necessary supplies, to ship the rich products of tho State without the in tervention ot Nc/hhern cities. Virginia Legislature.—On Wednesday, in both Houses, a bill was reported appro priating $100,000 for tho purchase of fire- arms and munitions of war, to bo distribu ted by the Govefoor among organized vol unteer companies in oxpoaed portions of 'he Stale. In the House a communication was presented from the Hon. C. J. Faulk- uer, urging un appropriation for the relief of G. W. Richardson, of Mariiniburg, and Samuel C. Young, of Charlestown, who were wounded at Harper's Ferry. A bill was reported in tho House to pay the ex penses incurred by tho Governor in tho Harpor’s Ferry affair. Fanaticism Kebujkd.—Capt. -Harring ton, Democrat, who was re-elected Mayor °f Maooheater, N. H., this Week, over the Republican candidate, is the gentlenman who, when the fanatics of that city attempt ed the lolling of tho bell of tho City Hull on tho day of John Brown's execution, de feated the,base attempt by dropping their emissary through a scuttle.

The telegraph on Thursday night in formed ua that (here Waa much excitemeny in Philadelphia in consequence of an ap prehended collision between the abolition ists, who wore about to make an offensive demonstration, and the conservative's, who were determined to check them. In tho Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, of Thursday and Friday, we have an account ol the proccocdinga. It seems that the Annual Abolition Fair, which was in sea- SaVANNAH. GEORGIA. TUESDAY M () UNI NG. DEC KM B 1C R 20. 1863. .Ion In the Assembly Buildings, had been * n ^r, H. McCnen, aged 15, inching a riot outside the Ilai). Held by Alderman converted into an abolition convention, at which violent inflammatory speeches were made, (be speakers holding up Joun Brown as a hero and martyr, whoso example should be imitated by all who desired the abolition of slavery, and denouncing the recent union demonstration in that city ridiculous and without vitality. One of the speakers, Mf. Oliver Johnson, of tho Anti-Slavery Standard, said : It has been Baid, over and over again, that the ami-slavery movement was crush ed out. At a juncture when it seemed (the Government awning no territory on which the tost could be made,), that the subject must drop, John Brown, as if ex pressly sent by God, went down into Vir ginia. N*iw it is impossible to get any other subject beforo the people. Tho movements to get up a counter current of •ympathy now are very ridiculous. Look at Boston! There was no vitality there. All the old politicians were unearthed— those who had been aer aside fur twenty years—and their dry bonea shaken in the face of the country. The same ia the case here. Only the old fogies, not represent ing the best sentiment of Philadelphia, could be got upon tho platform at Jayno’s Hall. Mr. Johnson was never more on- ouutaged in tho cause than now. lie had a firmer beliet than two yenrs agu, that slavery would be peacefully abolished ; but il the telegraph wires should to-day flash intelligence that the slaves, at almost any sacrifice of white and black blood, had achieved their liberty, ho should cry, “ Glory ho to God in the Highest!" Shall we be ashamed of our own work 1 Here is the effect of our owa preaching. John Brown waa the type oRiundreds ol others. Why is the South bo panic-struck f (We quote the iangtiage of Mr. Johnson.) Because she knows that Brown struck a chord which vibrates through the North. “ It becomes ua to gird ourselves alresli to the work. If any of you feel called upon by God to do such work as John Brown did. go and do it." Tile work of emanci pation, eller thirty years’ labor, enema to have just begun. Within ten years such a blow will bo struck SB will cause the whole qation to rair.o up and put Blavory down. Tho proceedings had excited consider able indignation, and tho owner of the hall in which the fair waa held, foarlul that violence might bo done to the building* had it closed, tho Mayor having also re quired tltaq tho great anti-slavery Hag, which obstructed the street, should bo taken down. The fair was finally closed, ami the crowd adjourned to the National Hall to hear an abolition lecture from Mr. Curtis, one of the editors of the Harpers’ Maga zine. In the meantime notice had been issued calling a meeting outside of the hall, " to adopt such measures as the exigencies may require to prevent the dissemination of principleacalculated and intended to arouse a spirit of most intense animosity in the community, ond lead to fearful conse quences, and to check hireling incen diaries from making further inflammatory addresses in our loyal city." The meeting in front of the Hall as sembled about half an hour beforo the lime appointed for the lecture, evidently fur the purposo of preventing Mr. Curtis from lecturing. But the Mayor of tho city had adopted measures to prevent a riot. The Bulletin says— Thero were fully 500 men nn duly, and they were officered by tho Lieutenants ol the respective divisions. Mayor Henry was present during the entire evening, and al points where danger was most imminent ho was on tho nlert. The Sheriff and Chief Buggies were also upon tho ground, and the dire tr command of the men devolved upon the chief. While the from of tho Hall was guarded by a double platoon of-tuon, the rear was carefully watched, and a large idreo, con sisting of the Reserve corps and other of ficers, were stationed in the saloon. In tile car house below tho Hall was a lorce of about one hundred men, who were kept for servico al any point where their presence might be uoeded. The onlire force of de tectives, high constables, and specials were also on duty. The crowd were kept from interfering with the abplitionis’s and their lecturer, who passed intothe Hail, whers Mr. C. de livered himself ol an incendiary speech which elicited muck, applause and some hisses. Ail who hissed were immediately arrested by the police. The crowd outside contented themsolves with groaning and hissing, and throwing a few stones through the windows. One bottle of vitriol was thrown. Miss Fussel, a daughter ol Pro fessor Fussel, of the Female Medical Col lege, of Philadelphia, was badly burned about tho faco by tho acid, and several otliur ladios bud their clothes ruined. Messrs. Cyfus Chambers, Allen Moore and others were hurt more or leys by the vitriol. One ntan was strock in the eye by a frag ment ot the bottle, and il was thought the sight of the organ was destroyed. The lecture Was concluded and applaud ed to the end, despite the opposition out side, alter which the meeting adjourned and passed out of the hull through an open ing made in the crowd by the police. The Bulletin (Black Republican) characterizes the outside meeting ns having been com posed chiefly of boys 'and the rabble of the city, incited and led by seine Southern medical students qnd a lew respectablo citizens- Among the arrests made we ob serve the following— John Scott, said to belong totheKillor gang, arrested in the Hall fur creating dis order. He was taken before Alderman Ogle, who held him in $500 bait to answer al court.

Swift to keep the puttee. Thua ended the apprehended riot, which, but for the prompt action of the Mayor, might have proved a #ery serious affair. Judge Kelly, of Philadelphia, who es corted Mr* Curtis and introduced him to the audience, called on tho Mayor the next morning 01 behalf ol Mr. Curtis and tho other persons who believed their safoty had been endangered, and returned sincero thanks for the powerful and efficient pro tection afforded them by the police force. The Mayor remarked that ho had no sympathy with Mr. Curtis in many of tho sentiments he entertained; but his duty, to secure to every one tho exorcise of the undisturbed freedom of speech, was a very plain one, and he was determine 1 that so far as his exertions and the exertions of the force under his control could accom^- plish it, that the constitutional rights of oil should be respected and preserved from violence. “The fihoo Beginning to Pinch.*' The people of the North are beginning tofeel the effects of their course towards tho South. As a sample how the physic is working, the Philadelphia Ledger says; “The excitement which prevails in the public mind in reference to our sectional disputes, is very seriously disturbing tho relations ol business, and, if continued, will cause a great dual of suffering among our merchants and laboring population. A great many of our trades depend upon the Southern market; some havo suddenly ceased operations for want of orders from the South, and consequently employers have had to discharge their workmen.— This is particularly trying in thie period of tho year, and will be still moro distress- _ unless such confidence is restored as will enable business to flow naturally and prpperly in its legitimate channels. Il Congress has any respect lor the sufferings of free whito men, they will cease talking of the imaginary wrongs of the negro, or ganise tho (louse, and let the Government proceed in its harmonious and usuul course. I’lie sooner they do this, the sooner will confidence bo restored, and the sooner some of their constituents will find a de mand for their labor.” The editor of the Hartford Times says : “A manufacturer called upon us this morn ing, and said that a large share of his busi ness has been done at the South, but that his trade has beon cut oR thj# full; that he already Icels most disastrously*the effects of the unfriendly feeling that has lately been so industriously encouraged at the North. His agents at the South want no more of his goods, and his losses this win ter will be severe.” Upon which tho Norfolk Day Book re marks: We do not wonuer at it. AJI we have to say, Mr. Manufacturer, is, thut you will no: be alone in tho experience of those unpleasant sensations, of the South wanting no more of your goods. The John Brown crusade has been instrumental in awaking the South from her Rip Van Winkle nap, and her people are boginning to take a searching glance into a few facta which they would havo slumbered over till doomsday, probably, if it had not been for John Brown. They discover that you have been trading on their capital, that they have been paying you two or three hundred millions of dollars for your manufactures, and a liko amount for your importations, and that whilst you us a partner contribu ted but live millions to the concern, they havo had to contribute in the neighborhood of a hundred millions. But, Mr. Manufacturer, we havo a sug gestion that will romove you from your disagreeable dilemma. The South is pop ulous and wealthy, and her people are de termined that her manufacturing shall go on at home ; now if you do not come here and carry it on, others will, and in thut event your customers will be lost to you forever. So, tho iuvitution is as open to you as it is to any one. The land is rich, the climate the best in the world, and the peoplo hospitable and generous ; means ot travel and transportation exist in abun dance, and a thousand cities, towns, and villages erect you on every hand, containing millions of customers for eviry useful ar ticle you can manufacture. Sombthino New-Old Brown Kisbrs a Neoro Bady.—The Cbarlentown correspondent of the Tribune publishes the fallowing iucldent, which occurrsd upon Old Brown’s emerging from the jail to tak* up his,Hue of march for the gallows : On leuvlug the jail John Brown had on his faco nn expression of canines* aud serenity, character istic of the patriot who is about to die with a living oouBcioubuesH thnt he is laying down his life for the good of his fellow creatures.

Firmly and with olastic step he moved forward. No flinching of a coward’s heart there. He stood In the midst of that or ganised mob, from whose de-potic hearts petty tvr .ny Mtuined for tho nonce eliminated by the ad- miration they had in once boholding a mau—lor John Brown wbh there every inch a man. As he stepped out of the door a black woman, with her littlo child in her arms, stood near his way. Tho twain were ot the desplsod ruce, for whoso emancipation and elevation to the dignity or children of Ood he was about to lay down his life. Ilia thoughts at that moment none can know except as his an s interpret them. He stopped for a mouieut in his course, stooped over, and with the tenderness of one wh .su love is as broad as the brotherhood of uun, kissed the < hi Id affectionate ly. That niothor will bo proud of that mark of distinction for her offspring. It is a little singular that of all the correspon dents present on that day, the Tribune man waa the on y one who witnessed the emphatic buss which Ossuwatomie gave the negro baby. Adjust a and Macon Railroad.—At a meethig of the Oily Council of Augusta, held ou the 14th lust., Mr Miller offered tho following preamble aud resolution*, which wore unanimously passed; Whereas, the uxtention of Railroads uow in progress, aud receutly chartered, may prove detri mental to the business interest of the city unless some action ia taken to counteract the supposed offsets, therefore be it ]tesd\'4d t That the Olty Council of Augusta will oo-oporate with any corporation ors terV/iual* In building a road connecting Macon vriw. .^me con venient point on tbe Ueorgin Railroad, or to build a road direct front this city to Macon.

GitARt.RBTowN, V.I., Doc. 16.—Tho no f troos Shields Green end John Copeland tave just paid tho lorfeli of their lives. The crowd in the town is very groat, and the execution was wjtnesved by Id,000 persons. At 9 o’clock this morning the field was occupied by tho troopa, and at seven min- nice of elevon o’clock the procession made its appeorance. It arrived at ft o’clock at tl,e scaffold. 11(0 prisoners were in a wagon, accom panied by tho sherjffand jailpr. They mounted 'tho acatTold with a firm step. ’I’lte priauuors had the caps placed over their heada by. the Sherifi, and alter ap propriate prayers by Rev. Mr. North, of tho Presbyterian Church, they were launched into eternity. Belore tho nipe was cut, Green was heard to offer up a fervent prayer. Cope land was not heard to pray. Green’s neck waa broken and lie died without a struggle. Copeland writhed in violent contortions lor several minutes. Tho drop fell at eleven minutes after eleven o’clock. Tho prisoners bade farewell while on tho scaffold to the ministors, Moaars. Waugh, North and Lerb, expressing a hope to moot them in heaven. The bodies will be placed in the jail for intcrmont to-morrow. Cook and Copplo Hung. Charlestown, Va., Deo. 16, 2 P.

News of an Attempt at Bacape, On tho receipt nf the news of the at tempted oscape of Cook and Coppic, Gov. Wise telegraphed to General Taliaferro to take posaessiiin of ilia jail, which was ac cordingly done. BSBape and Bo-oapture of Cook and ■ . Coppic. TFroin the Baltimore 8uu ] Charlestown, Doc. 15—At half-past flight o’clock this terming, two of tho con demned prisoners, Cook, aud Coppic. us caped Irom the jail, and were fired upon by tho sontinols acid driven back to prison. They are now in,thu custody ol Sheriff Campbell. The prisoners had mounted (ho jail wall when they were discovered by ihu sentinel on tho outside, who immediately gdve the alarm and fired upon ihem. They had sawed their manacles asunder with the blade ol a Barlow knife, which they had concealed and made into a fine saw. It ia ascertained Irom their confession that they hove been engaged in preparing for their escape during the last ten days. They made a hole in the wall near the window, which they concealed with paper, hiding tho bricks they removed under the bed. Upon the alarm being given, they made no resistance, but surrendered as soon as they discovered by the shot of the sentinel that they wore detected. The event has produced the utmost ex citement here, and all are on the alert. Major General Taliaferro is directing everything in psrson, and will maintain an uninterrupted dupurvistuu of affairs until alter the execution? We do not apprehend any further difficulty, I learn thnt a despatch has been sent to John W.

Harter’s Ferry, Doc. 15.—8>s; P. M.— Great excitement prevails here at the pres ent time, on account of an attempted es cape Irom jail ot Cook ahtl Coppic. They had cut a nole through the wall of the jail and wore on the wall of the jail yard and were fired on by sentinels outside. Another account eaya that the bars of the windows were sawed, but all is envel oped in mystery. The prisoners aro now hoavily ironed, and a special guard is standing over them. Tho streets in front and arcund tho jail are also kept clear. Second Destatcii.—Tho prisoners now soy that they got the shackles off their feet by sawing thorn with an old knife, and then lorccd tho bars. A misunderstanding occurred several days ago between General Talialerro and the Jailor in regard to placing sentinels in side the juil. The Jailor claims the right to have his own men. The General gave way to him but placed a guard on the outside, which has thus prevented tho escape of the^ prisoners. Conk says he could have made his escape had ho jumped down and throttled the sen tinel.

Returning Reason in RNOLANo.—Some of the London journals, according to the New York Express, take a much more national view ol the Harper's Ferry out rage than the “ irrepresaiblo conflict” men in this country. The Morning Herald has an article on the subject, t.he substance ol which is this Slavery is an institution planted in the South, not hy the present generation 01 Southern men, but “ we, the peoplo of England.” The American colonies made ati effort to rid themselves ol tho institution while they were British colonies; hut British influence prevented. And, to-day, it is this same “we, tho people of England,” that is the main prop and pillar ol the samo slavery—supporting it by buying ol it, as it did Iasi year, over $150,000,000 worth of slave-groa rt cotton, rice and tobacco.

John Brown's Funeral. Brown’s body arrived at North Elba on Wednesday last. On Thursday, as we havo already stated, tho luneral took placo. The neighbors dug the grave, Rev. Mr. McKtin read tho funeral service, and the following is (ho eulogy of Wendell Phillips t He spoke as follows* How feeble all words are here. You think you have known him. None ol ue seem to have Known him. Walking serene to the scat- fold, we say . what courage ! Stooping to kiss that negro child, he seems all tender ness ; but he is only the centre of a group. These quiet homes eent six to that score ol heroes.' How bravely they died—-each standing in his post nil his voice said “enough.” And thesoweeping children and widows, how blessed, since in the last throbs ol the brave young hearts at Harper's Ferry, 1 thoughts of them min gled with love for Ood and hope for the the slave. He has abolished sluvury in Virginia. Some may say that is too much. Bunker Hilt sevurtd New Eng land from the mother country. Yet men that night pitied Warren. We see him cutting the link. George III. ceased that day to rule here. History will date Vir ginia emancipation from Harper's Ferry. When the tempest uproots one ol thovo pines, it may live months; but it is tim ber, not a tree. John Brown has loosened the roots of slavery ; it may gasp; but it is dead. He said ho could take the (own with twenty men, and did it. Who slop, ped him f Not Virgihta ; her he conquer ed. The Union scented to check him* In reality God said, “ that work is dune; you have proved that a slave State is only Fear in the inosli of Despotism. Now come up highest by martyrdom—change a million hearts.” Such a life was no failuro. Virginia stands at the world's bar on trial; round her victims stand the apostles and martyrs all who have said “ God is God,,' and trampled wicked laws under their feet.— He said : “ My lathers have given their swords to the master ; I givo mine to the slave.” If God is ever the Lord of Hosts, “making one man chase a thousand,” surely that band at Harper's Ferry may claim him as their captain. Men say, how coolly brave ! But in him matchlesr eotfragf* seems the leust of hiB merits.— How gentietic^ graced it. When tho frightened town wished (c b«»r oft' the body of the mayor, a man said, “ 1 will go under their rifles if you, Misti Fouke, will stand between them and mo. Ho knew ho oould trust their gentle respect for woman. He was right. He went in the thick of the fight, and boro ofTthe body in safety.— That same girt flung herself between Virginia kriffo* and! your young brave Thompson Hhey had no pity ; the merci less bullet reached him in spite ol a wo man's prayers, though the fight had long been over. Harper's Ferry was the flow- ering out of a long devoted life. These his sons and daughter show how wholTy he lived for his idea, ns each accepts so serenely his or her part in the movement— the share of toil and grief. As time pass es, history will paint that gallows girt by thousands oi armed men, guarding Vir ginia Irom her slaves, and over against it that serene old man stooping to kiss the negro child. Thank God for our emblem. May he move Virginia soon to blot out hers by repentance and hide it with bro ken fetters. Wo envy you your nearer place to these noble martyrs. Slavery will not go down oy force. Hearts are stronger than swords. ow sublime that last fortnight. His words are c,ven stronger than his rifles. Tlieye crushed a Slate; 1 hose will yet crush slavery. God gave him better than a sol dier’s place—that of teacher. The echoes ol his rifto have died away among the hflie his words millions treasure. God bless this roof—make it bless us. Wo dare not say “bless vou children of this home,” for you stand nearer to one whoso lips God touched, and y/e bend lor your blessing. God make us worthier of him whom we lay among these hills. Hero he girded himself with more of success than ho ever dreamed,God gave him. He sleeps in the blessings ol the &lave. Men believe more in virtue since he has lived. Standing hero, let us thank God for a firmer faith and fuller hope. The coffin was then lowered into the grave amidst deep silence. Just as it reached the bottom of the pit, and as the fitst shovel of earth grated harshly on the ear, the Rev. Mr. Young lifted up bis voice, end exclaimed, I have fought the good light; 1 have finished my courso; henceforth there is laid up for mo a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me at the last day.” The work of filling in the grave having been performed, .Mrs. Brown and her relatives slowly wended their way bock to the house, but the greet bulk of the crowd remained idly gazing bn the mound for an hour or so after all was over. Fliomt of Jews from Morocco.—Wo have heretofore stated that, owing to the threatened war between Spain and Mo rocco, the Jews resident In the latter country arc flying to Gibraltar and seeking the protection of the British flag, to avoid a repetition of the brutal, outragesJo which they wpre expb^ed id 1£44, wjicn the wild Kabyle tribe camn down to the coqat and committed the moat barbarous acts of mur der and.plunder. At last accounts nearly 3,000 Jews had arrived at Gibrslter from Tangier, and u waa probable that they would be followed by meny . thousand others from othor parts of Morocco. Most of the fugitives are in destitute circum stances, being obliged, in thoir sudden flight, to leave behind them whatever little property they posseted. Very many of the sufferers, including young women and children, could find no resting place upon reaching Gibraltar, but the bare ground. An appeal hafr H therefore, been mode in their behalf to their co-religionists in Eng- land and the United States, and to the be nevolent of all persuasions. In New York city the Rev. S. M. Isaacs, of 694 Houston street, has undertaken to reccivo dona tions.

Tho Roaton Journal says»—‘-Ii seems to be a difficult matter lor the South-rners lo carry out their whim of non-iniercoiirsn with the North. Gov. Wiao recently ox- pended $26 000 in Hartford buying Shdr?’e rides and revolvers to arm tho warriors ol the Old Dominion; and now the Rockville (Conn.) Republican says lhat the Ameri can Mill., in that village, have an order from iho South lor cloth for ihe uniform of a military company down there, which i. .cared up, probably, by the John Brown affair. If our Southern Irienda are ao enamored of British manufacture, aa they profeea to be, why do they not send to Manchester, England, for their cloth ; or why not buy u British uniform outright, us their sympathies run that way. Tho New York Express reminds the Boston Journal that the fifteen slave Stutes consent to the protection of from twenty-live to thirty per cent, for New England, New York, New Jersey end Pennsylvania manufactures, whereas, if the f4onh forces disunion on the South, tho products ol England will be brought here duty Iroc. and the tariff be levied on Northern production., tjtill, says the Richmond Despatch, we admit the diflicul- ty of accomplishing the non-interoourse; but it is not moro difficult than similar obstacles which our fslhers overcame in tho Revolution. Lemur volunteer com panies resolve to wear citizens’ cloths* rslbor than subject themselves to any more such taunts as those of the Boston Journal. As to the purchase ol arms by Gov. Wise in Hartford, to shoot abolition- ieis, wo are quite willing to purchase.abo lition gun* i» kill abolitionism with, until we can manufacture the seme article, for ourtelvca. Disagreeable as is the neces sity of our purchasing weapons, it is at all events not aa disgracelul aa their selling ihem ior the purpose of killing their own relative* and friends!
