Captain Brown was always courteous to .them, and at nil times assured them that they , W ould not lie injurod. He explained his pur- l^poscs to them, and whilst he had them (the workmen).in confinement, made no abolition speech to them. Col Washington speaks of hint as a tnan of extraordinary nerve. He nev er blanched during the assault, though he ad mitted in tho night that escape was impossible, and that he would have to die. When the door was broken down, one of his men exclaimed, - “I surrender." The captain immediately cricel out, “There’s one surrenders—-give him quar ter," and at the same moment fired his own rifle at the door. During tlio previous night he spoke freely with Colonel Washington, and referred to his sons. He said he had lost ono in Kansas and two here. He had not pressed them to join him in til? expedition, but did not regret their loss, they had died in a glorious cause. 'i'he position of tho prisoners in the engine hoi"e during the firing on Monday, and at the moiftent of tho final attack was a very trying ono. Without any of the incentives of combat, they liad to risk the balls of their friends, but happily, they all escaped. At the moment when the doors were broken in the prisoners, at the suggestion of Col. Washington, threw up their hands, so that it might be seen that they .were not combatants.

Tho 1 ndependent Grays, of Baltimore, im mediately started on a scouring expedition, and : Uivo hours returned with two wagons, load ed with arms and nmunition, found at Captain Brown's house. The arms consisted of boxes - filled with Sharpe’s rifles, pistols, &c., all bear ing the stamp of the Massachusetts Manufactu ring Company, Chicopee, Mass. There were also found a quantity of United States amuni- tion, a large number of spears, sharp iron bowie knives fixed upon poles, a terrible looking weap on, intended for tho use of the negroes, with spades, pickaxes, shovels and everything that might he needed, thus proving that tho expe- Uii.on was well provided for, that a large party of men were expected to be armed, and that * abundant means had been provided to pay all expenses. How all these supplies were cot un In a conversation held with old Brown yes terday, in the presence of Senator Mason,'the Hon. Messrs. Faulkner and Vallandignam and others, he made several answers which dearly demonstrate the complicity of numerous per- .son* in the Northern, Western, and Eastern But one instance in I States. He refused to answer to a question as to whether he had a conference with Mr. Gid- dings about his Virginia expedition, but admit ted that he had correspondence with parties at the North on the subject, and that he had nu merous sympathizers in all the Free States. Dispatches have been received .to-night from Hagerstown, which declare that Cook’s wife certainly went to Harrisburg on Tuesday, and took lodgings at the same house with old Brown’s daughter-in-law. The Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff of Hagers town followed Cook as far as Greencastle to day, and the impression there is that Cook had left for Chambersburg. The impression at Ha gerstown is jhat Cook passed through last night The Sheriff was credibly informed at Green- castle that a load of boxes passed through there on Tuesday for Washington county, loaded with rifles, pistols and pikes. The Sheriff going in search of them in the morning. The stage driver of the Chambersburg line also confirms the statement in regard to Cook’s wife. LATEST DESPATCHES.

The excitement here has no* abated in the least, and rumors are multiplying every mo ment We have some authenticated statements from Chambersburg, showing that more sup plies of arms and accoutrements ' have been tracked to that neighborhood. The people will persist in believing that they arc surrounded by spies and accomplices of Capt Brown. J ,The withdrawal of Col Lee and the Wash ington Marines last evening increased the gen eral consternation, and the citizens are to-day, under Col. Barbour, of the Armory, endeavor ing to organize companies for general defence. Virginia Militia, however, are not very tracta ble material for the formation of efficient com panies, as all hands want to be captains. Scouts arc out in the mountains to-day search ing for Cook, but there is no doubt that he has cre this passed the Pennsylvania line, and is far on his way toward Canada. Every stranger that comes here is looked up on with suspicion, and several have been arres ted on the charge of being spies. Mr. Win. THE GEORGIA TELEGRAPH. Jones County Court—'Vt'ineHaking.

Harper’s Ferrt, Oct 19.—The prisoners ta ken in tho late conflict with the insurgents at this'place, have boon committed to the jail of Charlestown, Jefferson county, Vk, to await the action of the Grand Jury. They will bo indict ed and tried in a few days. Tho arrangement about the jurisdiction has been settled in this way; the local authorities to try the prisoner* fur murtlir, meanwhile the United States au- ihori ties Will proceed to try them on the charge of treason. Gov. AViso said to United States District Attorney, Ould, that he had no objec tion to the General Government proceeding against the prisoners, if anything ho left of them by the time the Virginia authorities get through with them. Brown is bettor. He has made a fuller state ment, in which he says that he rented the farm, on which hi* nmlnmiu waa located, from Dr. Kennedy, six months since, and that he has paidChc rent for it until next March. He says that lie never liad more than 22 men at the farm at any one time, who belonged to his or ganization ; but that be bad good reason to ex poet reinforcements from Maryland, Kentucky, North and South Carolina, and tho Canadas. He states further, that he had arms and ammu nition sufficient for 1,500 men; that lio liad 200 revolvers, 200 Sharpe's rifles, and 1,000 spears, which to* left there at the farm, where he bad, also, an abundance of powder and fixed ammunition. Ho brought all his arms, from time to time, from Connecticut and other points in the Eastern States, to Chambersburg, Pa. They were directed to J. Smith & Sons, (his assumed name,) Kcnnady Farm, and were pack ed in double boxes, so as to deceive the parties who iiaridlcd them in transporting them to the farm. He says he made ono mistake in cither not detaining the train on Sunday night, or in permitting it to go on unmolested. This mis take he seems to infer, exposed his doings too eoon, and prevented Iris reinforcements from reaching him. Tlic names of all his party at the Forry on Sunday night, cxeept three white mon, whom Brow n admits were sent away on an errand, are as follows, with their proper titles under the provisional government affixed: Gen. John Brown, Commandcr-in-Chief, wounded, but will recover; Capt Oliver Brown, dead; Capt Wat son Brown, dead; Cant Aaron C. Stephens, of Connecticut, woundod badly, has three balls in his body, and cannot po«sIbly survive; Lieut Albert hazlott, of Pennsylvania, dead; Lieut Wm. Lehman, of Maine, dead; Capt. John E.

Mr. Ould also left for Washington last even ing, thus virtually leaving the prisoners in the hands of the Virginia authorities. It is said that Gov.

His reply was “Yes, I know that, but I must say, I think yo acted like sheep also.” The hearing of the case before the examin ing court of justice will probably take place to-morrow, when the prisoners will probably be removed to Wytheville for trial. Capt Brown is not considered in any dan ger from bis wounds, though Stevens will not, it is thought survive; he. however, has a pow erful constitution, and may recover. Washiroton, Thursday, Oct. 20,1850. District Attorney Ould and Col. Lee have returned from Harper’s Ferry. TTie former, soon after his arrival, had a conference with the President and the latter a loDg interview with the Secretary of War. United States Marshal Johnson of Ohio, now here, says that one of the parties engaged with Brown was prominent in tbe Oberlin res cue. Tbe following is Gcrrit Smith’s letter to Capt. John Brown: Peterboro’, June +, 1850. Capt. John Brown—My Lear Friend: I wrote you a week ago, directing my letter to the care of Mr. Kearney.

Wise, in tho course of conversation with Old Brown, told him he had bettor be prepai log for death, to which Brown responded that he (the Governor), though he might live fittccn years, would liavc a good deal to an swer for at least, and had better bc preparing now too. A writer in The Baltimore Exchange gives the following account of tlic personal ap pearance of the insurgents: Old Brown, tho leader, is a small uian, with white head and beard, and cold-looking grey eyes. When not speaking his lips are com pressed, and he has the appearance of a most determined man. His two sons (one dead) were strikingly alike in their personal appear ance. Each about five feet eleven inches high with spare visage, sallow complexion,' sunken eyes, and dark hair and beard. The beard was sparse and long, and their hair long and matted. The wounded man is of undoubted courage, and from bis cold, sullen manner, one would suppose did not dsk for or desire sym pathy. Anderson, mortally wounded, is tall, black haired, and of dark complexion. His appearanco is indicative of desperate resolu tion. Although suffering the most intense agony from the wound in the abdomen, be did not complain, or ask for auy favor, and the only evidence he gave of suffering was occa sionally a slight groan. He looks to be thirty J ears of age. Stevens, who was wounded on Tonday afternoon, and token prisoner, is physically a model man. He is five feet eleven inches high, with fine brawny shoulders and large sinewy limbs, all tbe muscles finely de veloped and hard. He is of dark complexion, and of undoubted resolution. When taken prisoner he did not ask or expect quarter, and lay and suffered from bis wounds, without com- pls<nt other than n groan. Coppic, who was taken prisoner uuinjured, isja smaH-sizcdman, but very compactly built. He has light blue eyes, and the only one of the entire number who has a pleasing expression of countenance. He was in a most agreeable humor, rod said it was Immaterial to him how or in what manner he was disposed of; that he would prefer a trial by jury, but if those who bid him in their power preferred to settle his case in some other manner, it would be agreea ble to b : m.

I have traversed the country from the colonial dependence of her most gracious Majesty, iu Canada, to tho Rocky Mountains, and I saw nothing that could be called worthy of the artist’s or poet’s observation. It is true that Canada has some charming scenery, which lias been much improved by British taste and art—the natural consequence of the refine ment mid cultivation of tho inhabitants, but whenever one crosses into the States, the coun try exhibits either wild forests or naked prai- ri«3, both of which arc dangerous to travel through, in consequence of the quantities of voracious animals they contain.

Mr. Editor:—I find that the impression gen erally prevails that all the “Bank Cases,” that is, the suits and claims of the billholders of the broken Banks at this place, have been settled. This is a mistake. The facts are these :— Last Summer during the session of the Su preme Court, at Macon, a compromise was ef fected and the terms agreed on, so far as the liability of the Stockholders and Directors cf the Planters & Mechanic’s Bank, of Columbus, were concerned. That arrangement itself, has not been, as yet, fully carried out; but it is being done; and it is believed will be consum mated soon. When that is done, it will not extend to any other Bank, nor embrace any other liability than that of the Stockholders and Directors of that particular Bank to pay its debts. The amount to be received will not discharge the debts ago : nst that Bank creditor retains the balance of his claim and has reserved the right of proving the assets of the Bank for its satisfaction which he is now doing and for which suits are pending. There is the Chattahoochee Rail Road & Banking Company, the old Bank of Columbus, the Bank of St. Marys and the Manufacturers & Mechanic's Bank, whese outstanding liabilities amount to some two or three hundred thousand dollars, and for the portion in bills the Stock holders are made liable by their respective char ters, except the Bank of St. Marys; which i.re not embraced in nor in any manner affected ay the arrangement or compromise before alluded to. Many of the holders of these claims are pressing their collection; suits are pending against the Stockholders or Directors of mest if not all of these Banks, and the rights and li abilities of the parties are yet to be adjusted by the Courts. I have deemed it not only just to the parties immediately interested, but also due to tie public, that the erroneous impressions which seem to prevail on this subject should be coi- rected; and respectfully ask the liberty cf doing so through the columns of your paper. Very Respectfully, Yours, &c., W. DOUGHERTY. For the Georgia Telegraph. Aii Enterprise forftlaeon. Mh. Editor:—Every important County in Georjpa, as well as in other States, and every Towri or City alpiost in the Union, thriving as Macon, has an Agricultural and Mechanical. Fair, at least once each year, by which its wealth and prosperity is materially enhanced. It is a matter of great surprise that there is no siich thin ; here, or rather, that our people have-’so long neglected the enterprise. These exhibi tion} are not only a benefit to the particular lo calities wherein they arc held, but of great value likewise to the surrounding countiy.— Knowledge is power, and how can a knowledge of what is going on in the world of agriculture, Cctton raising, improved Machinery, Sic., bc so well diffused as by an attractive display of the fruits thereof in some favored spot. Its value can scarcely bc over-estimated, for it would bring hundreds of strangers to our city, infuse r ew energy into every department of business, f.nd reveal the progress and perfection attained '.hroughout the country in the development of the manifold resources of Georgia. Considerable has been said recently, of an exhibition in December, of samples of foreign articles used in the South, the latest improve ments and largest varieties of machinery, &c., such a display may be made of great practical value to Macon and Ticinity; but to it should bc added specimens of home products, Agricultur al and Mechanical Above all, the right sort of steps should be at once taken to render such exhibitions permanent—a fixture of Macon, in brief, an institution which would if properly managed, stimulate business to the extent of several thousands of dollars every year. By this simple expedient, the attention of the whole State would in a short time be so thoroughly centered upon Macon, that the principal plan ters and farmers in the South would look upon our city as the headquarters for the acquirement of information, and contributors to Fairs, send their products here in preference to any other place. No farther jealousy need be felt towards Atlanta for monopolising the State Fair. Let that go ; our unrivalled position, added to the spirit of the people, would in a couple of years leave all competitors in the back ground. Our central location, contiguity to the richest Cotton growing districts and facilities of communica tion with every portion of Georgia and the South,, advantages not tobc slighted are, and if rightly used, can bc made to outrival every other city for the purposes of an exhibition like that proposed. The talked of Fair for Decem ber ought to be taken hold of at once, and with such energy that its success would be secured beyond peradventure. It requires only a little activity to bring about these results. Our merchants will give liberal ly to the enterprise, and a few well directed ef forts will do the work. MACONIAN.

Friend Clisby,—I feel like dropping you a line in regard to this city; for I know you will rejoice to hear of her prosperity. As I walk its streets I am struck with, the hustle of busi ness; and signs of improvement meet my eye on every hand. Columbus surely Is looking up. First of aft, I noticed the rumbling of cars near the grave-yard, and I found that the Ope lika and Muscogee roads arc now united and have one Depot I observed, also, the newly constructed cofier dams, for building the piers of the new Rail Road. Bridge, by which the Mobile and Girard train will cross to Georgia. This bridge will bc finished some time next year. Speaking of bridges, the new bridge that spans the beautiful Chattahoochee, near the Coweta Falls Factory, is not only an ornament but an immense convenience. The view from it is splendid. Our city fathers were compelled by its ercctioB to make the lower bridge a free one; for the down-towners were afraid the up- towners would receive too many cotton bales, and-witness the opening of too many fat purses. The upper bridge, you must know, is a free one. The lower town, however, is soon to boast of an excellent Hotel Rankin has erected, on Broad street, not far from the Court House, a Hotel, soon to be opened under the supervision of Cook, of Eufaula, who is said to bo a capital caterer. Many new and large stores have iateiy been opened in Columbus for the accommoda tion of country and city customers. It might appear invidious to mention names. One thing struck me, the number of cotton bales unhoused: I found the reason to be want of storage room. This, however, will soon be obviated. Maffitt has erected a new warehouse, near the Muscogee Depot, which has been taken by Gray & Greenwood. Hughes & Daniel will soon more into their old quarters and bo ready to receive their numerous friends. The Alaba ma warehouse will also soon bc rebuilt and oc cupied; and I understand that Bass* Co. mean to pull down the Oglethorpe and erect a new and handsome warehouse. Colurubus will- then havo seven warehouses. Plenty of room, you say. Yes, and clever men to guard the interest of planters. _ Two splendid new houses of worship are go ing up—Baptist and Presbyterian, tlic latter of which is expected to surpass anything of the kind in the State; Dr. L.

On one occasion, turning a corner rather abruptly, we found a jolly foretopman explaining by signs that he wanted something to pour down his throat that would make him dance, whereupon he cut a double-shuffle and reeled about tnc yard. Johnny perfectly un derstood and repcatc'd the performance. Jack’s broad faee beamed with delight. “Yes, that's it, grog!

Happily for the John nies, we arrived in time to stay further pro ceedings, and sending for Ycnoske, the inter preter, wc made him explain that Jack upon watcifand Jack upon tea, was as harmless as a baby; but that Jack iu a state of grog was simply an infuriated Briton, an animal likely to mar the domestic happiness of all within tho temple enclosure, and very certain to break the peace. “Ah,” said Yenoskc—“ah, all the same as drunken Dutch sailor.” Worse, we asserted, than fifty Dutchmen.” “All the same one tiger,” suggested Yeuoske, looking very serious. Wo told him that tigers the worse for liquor could not bc more trouble some. Whereupon Yenoske explained to his countrymen tho effects of grog upon our men in such strong terms, that neither for lore nor money could they get any thing stronger than tea—and we were happy, if Jack was not— m ings are tho result of the great Revival tha. took place here last winter. While on that subject, I may mention that daily Union Prayer Meetings are being held in this city, which are well attended. In conclusion I will observe, that property is rising in our city, and shrewd ones arc trying, in a quiet way, to obtain possession of valuable city lots.
