If this bo so, and an irfoprcssiblo truth, it is requisite aud ueewssary that vou should know it, an l to meet the emergency should stand here to night with arms in your hands opposed to your fellow citizens at the South. We have always iueisted that wo are tho < qua! citiicns of a common laud, that when foreigners are received into our midst, and naturalized as our laws pro vide, they are in common with ourselves, and all native to tho land, adopted iuto one common family, with equal rights and a common fran- , But this leader of the opposite hosts has . fulminated th® doctrintof an “liYepwsible con- ( flict” among our fellow citizens; the doctrine that *hcy who hare hitherto lived m ptnw snd har mony shall ho arrayed iu hostility Ife each otbor; that th# free Httttcs of tbo North are and must ho oppo-cd In arms to the slave States of the .South, and that there is an enduring and Irrepressible conflict now raging between them, and that there ran be no ctmocssiou of hostilities until all the i state* shall have become free or all the States shall have become slave.

Mr. ] Spiuolu then went on to cousidortbo manifold eb jentinn, to republican prlneiptrs Tuntion m one of the most serious complaint* that could possibly bo presented to public view, and it was the constant effort of the democratic party toren j dor this branch of the public service ns light u> it could possibly be.

(Choer*,) Mr Spinftla continued, at length, to press his objuotion* to the absurduit* of republi can principles, using considerably eloquence and tact iu his remarks, whilo ho commented in a strain of severe depreciation on the recent event# in tho floffth. Tho republican party, ho said, have got their fire* ready to be lighted iu token of victory— A Voice—We will quench them for you. (Loud laughter.) Mr. Spinola—Hu 1 I have no fear of them, for I have always manfully done my duty, and uut still prepared to do so. A Voice—We all know that. Mr. Splnolacontinued to maintain the princi ple.* which ho has always supported, snowing how the Democratic party was always in the fore most rank whenever tho interests of the people was under consideration. Ho concluded an ex cellent speech by apologizing for his inability to do juirioe to thesuiijeet because of The neat speaker, an adopted citizen of Brooklyn, supported the views laid down by the previous speakers and manfully defended the prinoiploe t rl.w dm<r*tii party.

Mr. A. 0. perilu whs tho next speaker. Ho reviewed the progress of the Democratic paiD, going through all the phases of opposition which which it ha had to encounter and all the benefits which it lias conferred upon the people. Ho •laid that some had doubt <1 hi* loyalty and ai taohtnent to the democratic party, but he was there to give in person a denial to the outcry which had been made againat him. [Tremendous Cheering.] Ho wa* determined to xtand by tho principles of tho democracy, for they were the only ones that could bring health and happino#* to the country. Ho then proceeded to con-ider the conduct of Henry Ward Beecher, condemn t ing the propagandism which ho Is “the habit of j preaching, and saying that while the ministers of-Obrist are giving Bible# for spreading Chris tian knowledge, and arc trying to preach tho gos pel to every creature, Beecher i* contributing ri fles, and endeavoring |o teach the abolitionists to “shoot tho ’gospel into every creaturo.” [Lou-l and uproarious laughter.] IhercstolMr. Per rin’* speech whs much in the samo strain, i The otbor speakers were ex-Judges Moore and | Garrison and Thomai A.

A weightier respon sibility never rested upon a Legislature in the matter of tilling those offices. We trust that the present incumbents of hoth positions will bo ro olooted by handsome majorities. Such a ‘result is duo Judge Ueuning, who has been pursued with a pertinacious and unreasoning malevolence al most without a parallel.

Beulah. This neautmu door commoes to eumt tt*n warmest praise from the first circles. Perhaps, no novel, appearing within the last half dozen years in this country, hus been so generally read or culled forth such universal commendation.— Scarcely a paper we pick up but contains a cri tique of tho work more or less elaborate and ap probatory. The Boston Courier, a good literary authority, has tho following iu regard to it: “In many roßpccts “Beulah” is a remarkable book. It is a narrative of a young girl's strug gle with society and with herself. Beulah, left iu un orphan asylum at an early age, goes thence into service, is adopted by a physician, leaves hid protection by reason of her proud determination t“ support herself, and for several years tills the place of a teacher. An inquirer, a thinker, a student, she goes through a bitter mental expori cneo ->i doubts, fours, dark despair, finally lind ing light in a return to her early faith. Before this happens, however, she has gained what we • all tame by her writings, and at lust tin.ls herself through her own oxertions. in tho position she had determined to attain. The most interesting feature oftliis work is the picture it presents of the torturing doubts which visitthe minds of thousands—doubts with which they wrestle silently and alone It is evident that the mental experience of Beulah is only the men tal experience of tho author ol the story, uml the course of _ the imrratrvo roveula tho struggle the vain seareh after peace, and this book id fnc result. The simple desire for library fame was apparently uo incentive to tho young author. She plainly has an earnest desire to assist others through tbo forest when! she hopelessly wandered.

Brown had no voice iu the matter, the room being open equally to ail who were permit ted to enter the Armory enclosure. All went and came alike, without consulting Brown; n>r did he either know myself or tho other gentlemen with whom he conversed. Filtering the room, 1 found Senator Mason, of Virgiuiu, there, casu ally, together with eight or tou others, and Mr. Brown conytrsingTreely with all who chose to uddres* him. indeed, he seemed eager to tulk to every one; and new visitors were coming und going every moment. There wu* no urrange uiout to have auy reporter; nor did I observe for several miuutis after i entered that auy were pre sent. Someone from New York was taking sketches oi Brown und (Stephens during the con versation, and the reporter of the Herald made himself known to me u short time afterward, but crul hours later, und then at the hotel in the vil lage. Finding Brown anxious to talk and ready to answer any one who chose to usk him a ques tion, aud bat ing heard thut the insurrection hud been planned at the Ohio Htate Fair, held at Zanesville, in September, I very naturally made the inquiry of him, among other things, u* to the truth of the statement. Learning front his uus wer that, lie hud lived in Ohio fur fifty years, and hud visited the Stute iu Muy or June last, I prose cuted my inquiries to ascertain what oouuection hi* conspiracy might have had with the “Oherlin Rescue” trials theu pending, and the insurrec tionary movement at that time made in the Western Reserve to organize forcible resistance to the execution of tho Fugitive Hluve law ; and 1 have now only to regret that 1 did not pursue the to attar further, asking more questions, und in kiug them more specific. It is possible that ■mo others who are so tenderly sensitive in re gur I to what was developed, might have boon qonliy implicated. Indeed, it is incredible thut a mere casual conversation, such us the one held by uo with John Brown, should excite such par oxysm# of rage and call forth so much vulgar but impotent vituperation, unless there be much more yet undisclosed. Certain it is thut three of the negroes, and they from Oherlin, und ut least six of the white men, niue iu all out of the nine teen, including John Brown, the leader of the in surrection, wore, or hud been, from Ohio, where they had received sympathy aud uuuusel, if not material aid, in their conspiracy. But, the visit and interrogation woro both casu al, and did not continue over twenty minute* at tiie longest. Brown, so fur from being exhaust ed, volunteered several speeches to the reporter, and more than onoo insisted that tho conversa tion did not disturb or annoy him in the least.— The report in tho New York Horald of Ootobor2l, is generally very accurate, though several of the question# attributed to me, and particularly tho first four, ought to have been put into the mouth of “Bystander,” who, by tho way, represents at least half a score of different persons. “As to tho charge preferred of breach of good taste and propriety,” aud all that, I propose to PEYTONH. COLQUITT, ) JAMES W. WABREN, (Editor*. Number 45 judge of it for myself, having boon present ou the occasion. There was neither ‘interview,’ ‘cate chising,’ ‘inquisition,’ ‘pumping,’ nor any effort of the kind, but a short and casual conversation with the louder of a bold and murderous insur rection, a man of singular intelligence, in Dill possession of all his faculties, aud anxious to ex plain his plans aud motivos so far as was possible without implicating his confederates otherwise than by declining to answer. The dovelopementa are important. Lot tbo galled jades wince. And now allow mo to add, that it is vain to un derrate either the man or his conspiracy. Capt. John Brown is as bravo and resolute a man as ever beaded n insurrection, and, in a good cause, and with a sufficient force, would havo been a consummate partisan commander, lie has cool ness, daring, persistency, the stoic faith and pa tieneo, and a firmness of will and purpose uncon querable. lie is tall, wiry, muscular, but with little flesh, with a cold, gray oyo, gray hair, beard aud moustache, compressed lips and sharp aquiline nuso; of cast iron luce and frame, and with powers of endurance equal to uny thing needed to bo done or suffered in any cause. Though engaged in a wicked, road and fanati cal enterprise; he is the lurthercst possible remove from the ordiuury ruffian, fanatic or madman; hut his powers are rather executory than inven tive, and lie never lmd the depth or breadth of miiul to originate and contrive himself the plau “t insurrection which he undertook to carry out. The couspiruey was, unquestionably, fur more ex tended thau yet appears, uoinbcriug among tho conspirators mnuy moro than the hundful of fol lowers wlio assailed Harper's Ferry, and having in the North aud West, if not also the South, as its counsellors aud abetters, men of intelligence, position and wealth. Certainly it wus one among the best planned and executed conspiraeiea that • vur failed. For two years ho had been plotting and pre paring it with aiders and comforted! u thousand miles apart, in the slave Slates aud the free ; for six mouths he liv ed without so much as a suspi cion in a slave Stale, aud uoar tho scene of the insurrection, winning even the esteem aud confi dence of liis neighbors, yet collecting day by day large quantities of arms, and making ready for the outbreak, lie hud us complete au equipment, oven to intrenching tools, as any commander in a regular campaign, and intended, like Napole on. to make war support war. He had Sharpe’s rifles aud Maynard's revolvers for marksmen, and pikes for the .-laves. In the dead hour of night, crossing the Potomac, ho aiozed tho Armo ry with tnmy thousand stund of arms and other munitions of war, and making prisoners of mor# than thirty of tho workmen, officers and citizens, overawed the town of Harper's Ferry with its thousand inhabitants. With lesss than half a somtc of men surviving, he hold the Armory for many hours, refusing, though out off from all succor and surrounded upon ull sides, to vurren .,i wm> uk*a* **iih uwivrri iu hatuLOSCTrmw rod by superior numbers yet fighting to the last. During tins short insurrection ci hteen wen were killed aud ten or mure severely wounded—twice the number killed and wounded on the part of tho American Force at the battle of New Orleans. John Brown failed tu excite a general aud most wicked, bloody and desolating servile and civil war only because the slaves and uon-staveholding white men of the vicinity—the former twenty thousand in number—would nut rise. He had prepared urms aud uuiunition fur 1,500 men, and captured at tho first blow enough to arm more than fifty thousand; and yet he had loss than thirty men—more, nevertheless, than have begun half the revolutions and eons piracies which histo ry records. But he hud not tampered with slaves, n-.r solicited the non slaveholding whites around him, because ho really believed that the moment the blow was struck they would gather to his standard, and expecting, furthered re, the prom ised reinforcements instantly from the North and West. This was Hie basis upon which the whol# conspiracy wus planned ; and hud bis belief been well founded, he would unquestionably have suc ceeded in stiring up a most forinable insurrection, possibly involving the peace of the whole coun try, and requiring, certainly, great armies and vast treasure to suppress it. Hero was his folly Hiid madness. He believed and acted upon the faith which for twenty years lots been So persistently taught in every form thvtHighoul the free States, and which i* but an other mode of statement of the doctrine of the :TflTP* n ■ ready and eager to rise again? t the “oligarchy,” needing only a leader and deliverer. The conspi racy was the natural and necessary consequence* of tho doctrines proclaimed every day. year in ami year out, by the apostle* of abolition.— ! But Brown was sincere, earnest, practical : ho proposed to add works to bin faith, reckless of murder, treason and every other crime. This was his madness and folly, lie perishes justly and miserably—an insurgent and a felon ; but guil tier than he, aud with his blood upon their heads, are the false und cowardly prophets aud teachers of abolition.
