gotten un mi the publication. An attempt was
made to t&jegrnnb tbo copy to New York, but th
War Department prohibited it, and it was -sent

I'hh John Bbqwn Raid—An Important Disclo-
IB.—Mr. Bum ner was re-elected to the United
StateB Senate, the other day, by the Legisla-
i of Massachusetts. Mr. Swan, a Republican!,
would not it **eems, vote Tor Mr. Sumner, aiij
ive trie following reasons for so refusing:
I come oow, Mr. President, to what ia known in
story us thu John Brown raid. This expedition
was planned and lilted out iu Boston, nnd its
xpeuces defrayed by subscription. The day he
tarted for Harper's Ferry, ou his deed of murder,
ie dined in room No. 4, Parker House, with some
ol lhe most zealous and ardent supporters of Mr.
Sumner, and lor tbis reason I allude lo it. The
Republican party now disown thc act ; they cal!
him a monomaniac, an insane man! hat when the
telegraphic wires, with lighting speed brought the
in-ws of bis death to New UngUuid, so depraved at
that Lime was lhe public sentiment here, lhat the
village church bells lolled out, hia luueral knell,
and the ministers of God, wilh a few honorable
exceptions, pmyed in their pulpits that the spirit
ol the ''departed saint" might rest in peace. This
act, Mr. President., was the death blow lo the peace
of tbe Union. Without it, Virginia would not
have seceded, and God grant lhat we may jet recover from it. I kuow the natf.es ol the person*
who were engaged iu ihis iriumaction, and shall

SiNiirr.Ait Story.—- J bo Fredericksburg correspondent of the Tallahassee Florida, toils lbe (allowing strange story:
"While tpq&Jsjflg of peace, there is a legend con
nected wilb a spring near Fredericksburg, which
I will relate lor the ben- Iii of tbe curious : According to tradition, this spring wae discovered running three months before the Revolutionary war.
Three inonlbs before a treaty of peace it dried up
aud ceased to run. It commenced unming again
three months before the war of 1812 and three
months before Up close, ss in tbe ReToUiliennrv
war, it again dried up, and bo with the-Mexican war.
Three moulhs before the Fall of Fort Sumter it
aoffia commenced running, and a short time since
dried up. 1 give as my author for this au aged
man who was born and living near tbe spring, and
Who has considernble property, and offers lo bet it
alt that we wiil have peace in ihree motithn from
the drying up of the spring.
A humorous comment, on memory was made by
a wniter ot s hotel wliere Felnatgle dined after having civen his lecture on artificial memory. A few
minutes after lhe professor left the lable, tba waiter
entered wilh uplifted hands aod eyes, exclaiming,—
•' Well I protest, the memory man has forgotten
