THE FRK8I PUNT'S REPLY. WxsjtiMiTox City, Nov. '26, fm 1 received on yesterday your favor of the 25th attuit, stating tliat you have information from various quarters, on which you rely, that a aoaspiracy of formidable extent in means and is formed in Ohio, tiusyh inia. Xtv fork and other States to rescue John Brown and his as prisoners at Charleitown, Virginia." The in fermaUon you beliove "is specific enough to bo and vou are convinced "that an attempt will be modi to rescue the prisoners, and if that faiis, then to seize citi sens of tbls State i Virginia) as hostages ant victims in aaee of execution. You do not communicate the facts on which your con mictions are founded in tbo absence of which it would Beem almost incredible that any portion of the people or tbc States mentioned should bo guilty of the atrocious ntekedness, as well as folly, of attempting to rescio jh visted traitors and murderers from the penalty due to their crimes under the outraged laws of irginia.

You express entire confidence, in which I hear'ily participate, the noble old Commonwealth is abun iautly able ami wMteg to carry her owr. laws into execution. Had this I fceen otherwise, acd had you, as Governor of Virginia Legislature not uow(being in session), made appiica th? to me fcr the aid which the constitution acd laws of tbe United States would enable me to allord, this should have been cheerfully and cordully granted. Still, there fe) one measure which, on the presumption that' your in formation is well founded, it is both my right and lay duty to adopt. That is to reinforce the guard already stationed at Harper Kerry.

This may be necessary, not only to protect tho public property afcarly within federal jurisdiction, but to prevent the in Burgents from seizing the arms in the arsenal atthit place using (hem against the troops of Virginia. Besides, It Is possible the additional troops may be required to act as a posse comititus on the requisition of the irshal of the United States for the Western district of Virginia, to pre went the rescue of Stevens, now in his custody, charged vrtth the crime of high treason. I have, therefore, as a precautionary measure, directed the Secretary of War to erder two companies of Artillery to proceed immediately ferns Fortress Monroe to Harper 's Kerry. You also inform me that places hi Maryland, Ohio Ud Pennsylvania have occupied as depots and ren desvous by these desperados, unobstructed by guards or otherwise, to invade and you apprise me of this feat, that i "may take steps to preserve peace between fee States. 1 am at a loss to discover any provision in the constititeen or iawB of the l'mted Stales which would authorize to tue steps for this purpose.

It Is, doubtless, the imperative duiy of the resiiective State governments to break ap such depots, and to prevent their citizens from making mcurgion- Into Virginia to disturb its peace or prevent the execution of Its laws. If the federal exe- utive, however, were to enter those Slates and perform this duty for them, it would bo a manifest u-arpution of their rights. Were 1 thus to act, II would a palpable invasion of State sovereignty, and, a precedent, might dangerous. VJ" minority for calling out tLo militia or eiujloyiug tbe army and navy jj derived exclusively from the acts of th6 zflth of February. 1795, and the 3d of March, 1807, hich clearly do not embrace such a esse as feoow presented.

It will not be pretended tliat such inoursions from one State into another would be an iuvanon of the United States "from foreign nation or Indian tribe," under the act of February, 1795. rendering it lawful for the President to employ the federal forces "to repel invasion." In conclusion, I beg to express the jpo that, whether tbe information you have received be founded in truth or not, the energetic measures already adopted under your dlrc-ctjon win prove sufficient for flfij emergency that may occur. Yours, very respectfully. BUCHAN VX. His Excellency Hsnrv A.

miikcd tin community Tor the past eight weeks has abated considerably, and afiiurs are teaming somewhat uf their former quiet As I dow write I boar the drum beating for the assembling of the Mount Vernon Guard, of Alexandria, Lieut. W. W. Allen commanding, preparatory to tbelr de.wtrture hence for home. Yesterday afternoon the remainder of the Kir-t regiment of Virginia Volunteers, who ivo oeen on duty hero, took their tenvo of us.

There wore two companies? tho Young Guard, Cupt. Rady, and the German Rilles, Capt. Miller. Tho Howitzer Cbmpaiy, Cupt. Randolph, also left, all under the command of Col.

T. P. August. Several of the staff officers, who wore relieved from duty for the prosont, also accompanied them to Richmond. Thero are here now so I learn lYom Major G.

W. T. Keanly, Commissary about Ave hundred soldiers still remaining, a part of whom will bo, 1 understand, relieved from further duty hore to morrow, and bo ordered to their respective homos. I learn from reliable authority that companies from other sections of tho State are to bo ordered hero in placo of those that have departed, it will thus be seoa that Gov, is determined to keep a sufficient forco here, for all practical purposes, until after the 10th of tho mouth, upon which day four of the remaining wis prisoners will suroly be executed. Major General W.

B. Taliaferro will continue in irnmand and remain here until aftor that time, when I presume bo will bo relieved and ordered back to Richmond. As there have been somo comments made about Col. Dnvis' deposition from authority, and the placing of Gen. Taliaferro in command, 1 doom it not out of place to state that it was an imperative duty of Gov.

Wise to plae an olilcer iu charge hero who had not disfranchised himself from holding such position, as was tho ca-e with Colonel Davis. There is a law of Virginia which forbids the holding a military office, by commission, by any one who has been engaged in a duel, either as principal second. Col. Davis has acted as second to 0. Jennings Wise, Esq.

in one of bis duels? such, at least, I understand is the caso. It will thus be seen that Col. D. could not by la. hold the position now so ably and creditably tilled by n.

Taliaferro. It may not be out of place to state, also, that (iov. Wise and (Jen. Taliaferro are nearly connected, by marriage at least, if not by blool Wiso's present, and 1 believe third wife, was Miss Lyons, sister of James I yon. -i, a distinguished lawyer of the Richmond bar, and Gen.

Ta.iaferro married Mlss Sally l.yons, daughter of Mr. L. Apart from these facts, which may have been iu favor of Gen. Taliaferro, ho (On. T.

served with great distinction in the late war with Mexico, and Is an officer of accomplished manners, excellent abilities, and a thorough soldier iu cvory respect. He also holds, if 1 aiu not mistaken, the position of Major General of the Virginia forces, by virtue of election by tho Virginia Assembly, who have the electing of all general officers in the State. 1 see it stated in some of the papers that "owing to tho determined persistence of Dr. Rawlings, of tlrauk Leslie' Uluitratnl Fajxr, the reportnrial corps of tho were admitted within tho limits of the JJeld of execution, and as sigued a position near the scaffold, fee. Now, I know that had Dr.

R. been a little less in his ptlbrts, he, as also others of his confreres, would have had assigned them a far better position. His pertinacity defeated the object it was desirous to obtain? viz: position really worth having. (to Saturday morning a man, calling himself E. G.

Otis, of Yonkers, New York, presented a letter of introduction to the Rev. Mr. Waugh, of tho Methodist church, of this The letter parpotted to be from a gentlemen residing at Yonkers. Mr. Waugh would not recognise the introduction, believing it to be a forgery, ami immediately banded the letter to the authorities of the place, whereupon Mr.

Otis was taken into custody. His contradictory statements to different parties only confirmed the suspicion that he was here for no purpose. Ho bis been kept under strict guard from Saturday in the hotel until to day, when he was sent oil by Mayor (ireen. Mr. Otis has reason to congratulate himself that he was so considerately treated, and not placed in jail, as lias been the case with several other s'ispicious characters who huv? intruded within tho limits of tho town without lng any ostensible legitimate business.

People from abroad have no more cause to cavil at tho treatment they when they come hero, as things at present exist, than have the citizens ef the to and county, for they are put to a great many annoying iucon- I vcnicnces, owing to the peculiar circumstances of the There is a very general discussion here by residents aDd strangers from other parts of the State, as to the state of feeling in the North on tho subject of Brown and his raadmanlike attempt. Many? those who are as "ardent as a Southern son can make firmly believe that the North, as a would gladl sec the institution of slavery wiped out, even though it had to be done bytblooished. Others? those judgment and rsasou V3 not unite sv gjsilv overpowered by the rays of a "Southern sun tie matter more coolly, and believe that there still exists much of tho true conservative element iu the North. Those who tike the latter view of the all'airs. claim that the effect of a dissolution of the Union would be as disastrous to the North as to the South, and, in believing so, give duo credit to for having a keen and proper appreciation of the blessings and advantages showcrod upon the United States as a Union.

Many are firm in their belief thxd the present session of Congress will be tho stormiest that has ever boon. Well, a few days will prove that. It is thought by a very proportion of those anxious to hare a "brush'' with the abolitionists, that the John Brown raid is but rhe fore runner of many similar attempts to be made by those of bis immediate followers at Harper's Ferry, and who are said to have escaped iuto Canada. The idea that all who escaped from the Ferry have gone to Caoala is scouted; it is thought and believed that most of them are still in' the United States, and the report given out, as a blind, that they may the more Actually operate in their threats to destroy by Are the property or the people of Jeflerson county, or assassinate the citizens who figured prominently as jurors, ko. Others, however, think that an abolit.onist could uot be paid to corns within a hundred milc3 of Harper's Terry or Charlestown.

Tlmo only will prove the respective different opinions on point. Tho spirit of vigilance has been aroused, aud for the future all strangers w.ll be lookei with suspicion, and as a consequence will be closely watchod. On yesterday I saw a number of negroes on tho streets, many of them from the country they appeared contented aud happy, and evidently enjoyed looking at tho soldiers and listening to the excellent discoursed by the baud attached t'j the Fir- 1 regiment. If they are lot alone they will content with their condition, in a majority of cases, far preferable to being t'rAe, and forced by tho whiles, whom made superiors, to resort to eril practices for a livelihood. Th" condition of the free negro in the South, as a general thing, infioitely worse th in even the severest position as a -lave.

The condition of the free negroes in the North you can butter judge of. Tb it they, as a class, are debarred from many of the dearest privileges that the abolitionists claim they can enjoy at the North, if they escape from bondage South, is too palpable for denial even. Of the soldiers here who have don" the mo3t effective duty and kept constantly at service ever sinco tho 17th October last, the Jefferson Guard, Capt. J. W.

Rowan, are entitled to that credit. Since that date they have never taken off their uniforms, except when relieved from guard duty. Many of the Richmond companies were not very ambitious of serving as sentinels; if a fight hud taken place, however, they would have done their share of that '-agreeable pastime," I've no doubt. I heard that It was said some members of Company Capt. R.

M. Carey, that It was the only company composed exclusively of Not a very complimentary opinion, I think, of the balance of tho First regiinont of Virginia Volunteers. Tliat kind of talk is in very bad taste, and not calculated to foster a spirit of '-good feeling" among their brother soldiers. Men, truo men, is the best material out of which true ncd good soldiers aro made. I was surprised to se? existing, to a great, degree, so much dissatisfactioiT among tho soldiers about serving as guard.

There has been assigned for duty here, until after the 16tb, tho Petersburg (Jrays, Captain Jos. Scott. I understand, from good authority, that when Cnptnin Scott was asked by General Taliaferro if be desired to be sent home, his reply was: "General Taliaferro. I and my company aro here to obey orders and not to ask favors." That Is the right spirit of a soldier. On the day of the execution of John Brown, as ho was on his way to the gallows, he entered into conversation with Mr.

Sadler, the undertaker. Mr. Sadler drove tho wagon which conveyed him to tho place of execution. It is herein given Mr. Saim.kr.? Captain Brown, yott are much cooler this moment than I am.

Capt. Brown That may be so, sir. 1 have suffered more from dillidencc than from any feeling of physical fear. Ihave never known, even aw a child, what that feeling was. It is constitutional with men; they are brave or cowardly.

The hardest of this is parting with friends. After the wagon and escort had entered the field wherein the gallows stood, and during a momentary halt of the column, he again commencod talking. Cait. Brows. I see till but the military aro excluded from the field.

Mr. Yes, sir, that is the order. Captain, the house you see to our right hand is the residence of Mr. Brown, the Clerk of the Court. You remember him, I expect.

Capt. B. Oh, yes. It is the cream colorned house, isn't Mr. P.

Yes, sir. Capt. What a beautiful country y.iu have around here, it is iho first opportunity I buve' had of seeing it. Mr. Yes, this is a beautiful part of the country.

The escort aud wagon had by this time reached the foot of the gallows, where It was stopped. Capt. Avis, Jailor, first descended from the wagon. Capt. Brown immediately twk oil his hat? a black felt one of the Kossuth and was by Capt.

Avis assisted to the ground. As style? and stepped onto the lore wheel of the wagon, he reached the ground he turned to Mr. Sadler, Mr. Strang and a geutleman from New York, and said, "Good bye, gentlemen." After reaching the top of the scaffold, the Sheriff, Jas. W.

CampbcH, and Cnpt. Avis put on the cap and adjusted the rope. Capt. A. then saW, Please step forward," to which Capt.

Brown replied, You muBt guide me; 1 can't gee. After he was placed on the drop, and the rope, which had a loop, was attached to a hook in tho cross beam above, the order, Not ready yet," was given by an ofllser. This order was given because the military bad not taken the positions assigned them. In consequence of this detention, of about eight or Urn minutes, the prisoner ww kept standing on the drop; but not a sign of a tremor was visible, and be stood as lirmly and as solidly as one of the poets of the gallows. During this painful and trying time Mr.

Campbell frequently raised the opening in the left hand side of the cap. as if he was letting tho prisoner have air. This the Sheriff did repeatedly, and then placing his hand on the shoulder of Brown he I waited lor the order, All ready." Brown was asked i by apt. Avis if he desired to say anything, to whi Brown replied, No, only 1 hope you'll not keep me waiting unnecessarily long." Evervthtnc being ready, Mr. Campbell pre the trboultf of -own anil said, "(Jooj bye, Captain," and Brown's last audible word on earth was "tieod bye;" and as the Sheriff left him he braced bimpolf firmly, pressed bis hands to bis sides, and at IwiBty-five minutes after eleven o'clock A.

H. Clay Pate, or Virginia, on John Brown. JOHN BKOWV IN KANSAS, AND OLD BKrtVFN IN EXCITED LISTENER CATECHISES THE LEC7TKER AND IS EJECTBD. The well known character, Capt. Henry Clay Pate, of nnd formerly of Kansas, delivered a lecture on Wednesday evening at the Cooper Institute.

on 'John Brown iu Kansas, and Old Brown In Virginia. In consequcnce of the exceedingly unfavorable state of the weather the attendance was very small, not over one hundred persons being present. Shortly after cigbt cloctc the lecturer, accompanied by Gen. George Blckley, of Petersburg, and President of the American Legion, made his apiiearauseand was greeted with considerable applause. Captain Pate is a slim personage, about five feet nino inches in height, with rather sharp features, and a decidedly Southern cast of countenance.

Iu introducing him, General Bicklky spoku in the highcot terms of the lecturer, whom he said he had known for years. Ho alluded to the excitement at present felt all over the I'nion about the late Harper Ferry insurrection, and asked the audience if they were prepared to maintain the I nion and to listen to the remarks of Capt. Henry Clay Pate. If so (said he), 1 have tbc pleasure to introduce to yon the lecturer of the evening, Captain Henry Clay Fate, of Kansas notoriety and Virginia respectability. Caption then advanced to the front of the platform and proceeded to deliver his lecture.

Ha began by expressing his regret that the wcathor was not snch as to allow so fall an andiencs as he expected to attend what might havo been a very Interesting locturo. But he would make no apologies or excuses, as such things were always considered boros. had early been taught the maxim of Davy Crockett, "First be sure you're right, and then go ahead;" and reeling saiufled that ho was on the present occasion on the right side of the fence, he would with the indulgence of the audience give a little personal account of himself, which would, doubtless, be excused in his ease, inasmuch as had been abused by the abolition newspapers all over the country, and grossly misrepresented and traduced. Who ami. then? exclaimed the speaker lam the Capt.

Pate who went to tako old Brown, and wheni old Brown took instead, Laughter.) For the last four or Ave years I have resided in Kansas and Missouri. I am Odd Fellow, and have been a postmaster under the present administration, though I received my appointment not from the President himself, but from tho Postmaster General. I was for eight years a member of the press, and I still belong to that honorable confraternity. (Cheers.) By profession I am an aUurn jy, and I sometimes practise in Missouri, and sometimes don't: but when I don't (so our reporter understood him to say) I don't resort to girabling for a living. (Laughter and applause.) Having thus satisfactorily accounted for his identity the lecturer proceeded to devote himself to the particular subject of his discourse.

Ho he had divided bi3 lecture into two parts? firstly, John Brown in Kansas, and secondly, old Brown in the Charlestown jail on the 21st ultimo. In the first civil war in Kansas John Brown, he said, distinguished himself by desiring to obtain authority. He wanted to rule always, and always to command. He wished on all occasions to play the first fiddle. John Brown was one'of those beautiful creatures who would rather rule himself in hell, than serve iu beuven.

Tho next tin) John Brown was heard or as when he went, at midnight? whin he stole to Pottawatomie creek, at that witching hour of night when "churchyards yawn and graves give up their and murdered live innocent men in cold blood which crime ho did not deny, but justified it In his letter to (Jen. Scott, on the ground that it promoted the cause of righteousness? namely, the abolition of slavery. John Brown told him (the speaker) when he was a prisoner in his (Brown's) hands in Kansas, that ho would as soon take a man's life as a common dog's, ir that man stood in the way of his principles. Tho speaiser next referred to the case of Mrs. Boyle, whos; husband and children, he said, Brown butchcrel, or helped to butcher, in Kan sas.

It wa3 after the murder of those persons all of them most inoffensive and orderly pro-slavery people? that he (Captain l'ate) raised "a company under the Unitcu States Marshal, with the view to capture old Brown, nerethe lecturer narrative of the famous battle of Black Jack, the details of which are I doubtless familiar to all our readers. In describing this action Captain Pate brought to his a blackboard, on which he had traced a rough ou'Iine of the scene of the battle, the various locations of which he pointed out will a pike, which he said was one of tho John Brown pikes made in Connecticut, after the model of a bowie knife foond In tho possession of Fred. Brown one of the sons of old Brown, Captain Brown, or JoWn After relating the way in which he and his company had been ertrapped by old Brorn, (he lecturer said thut after three hours' fighting he (Captain Pate) sent out a flag of truce, and this being granted, an interview was agreed on. He (tho speal. ir) wen to Brown, who Immediately told him that ho njust surrender.

Captain Pate said ho would never surrender. Brown replied on got to do it, and right down here Immediately he was surrounded and compelled to submit, by about one hunlred of Brown's men, who also surrounded the little band of Pate's and forced them to lay down their arms. While some of the abolition papers, in describing this affair had asserted that he (Pate) had been captured by nine men under Brown, tho latter admitted himsolT that be had men under his command, twenty five of whom were perfectly rcliaMe. The lecturer here said he had ratfdlv glanced over the battle of Black Jack, and asked If there was anybody preseut who would like to have any further information about the matter. A man with a military cap on, and a large coat buttoned up to the neck, instantly sprang to his feet and said: Miutaky Mak Capt.

Pate, I have in Kansas and saw you In Norfolk six weeks ago. Now, I want to' ask you one question. I)o you think that if I were to go to irginia I would bo allowed to speak as you "peak heretonight? Capt. Path Certainly, sir, you would. Hiutary Man No, sir, I would not.

Poucuua? You must come out of this, sir. Gov. Dore? No, I won't, either. Pouckman? Yes you will. sir.

In a few moments the turbulent Governor was removed from tho room, and Captain Pate resumod his lecture. After indulging in a few broad anoodotes which bo said be would take the liberty of doing, as thero wore no ladies Eesent? he gavo a description of what Old Brown was in i opinion. John Brown, he said, belonged to that class of fault finders who would make a bed of Procrustes for every one who did not hold the same opinion as himself; ho was of those religionists who said, Mam holier than thou." and denounced everything that "did not exactly gee." Brown would lind fault with the temple of Solomon on exhibition in this city, because it had not pluribiu mum on it and would make war on the Chinese or tight with the Japa nose, because they, forsooth, liked stewed or fricaaoed and mice, while ho (Brown) perhaps preferred i-kunks. Brown would revolutionize the Union, aud set unwilling slaves freo, without giving them any innaus for supporting themselves. He might as well try to abolish death as to abolish slavery.

It had existed from the beginning of the world, and those making a Don Qui xotte war on it, might just us well mako a war ou death. Slavery was an institution of the South, and if the Union was to be preserved, slavery must bo left alou3, and not bo meddled with by politicians, who had respect for neither Hod nor man. It was understood that Wendell Phillips gloried in not being a citizen of tho United States, aud boastod infidelity, scouting all belief in the Son ut'iiod, acknowledged by all Christians. No honest man could be an abolitionist, and ho (tho speaker) believed that Gerrit Smith was an honest man, simply from the fact of his being eontlned in a lunatic asylum. I Hook a good man to bo really brave.

But if evory thing Brown had said and ilono were to be taken togethor, nothing characterizing a truly courageous man would be found. In conclusion the lecturer alluded to the Union of the States, calling the North to come to the aid of the South in the present crisis. If one division should take place, no one could Bay thut there would not bo Nix in the course of time, until this glorious federation would become the prey of anarchy and confusion. AFFAIRS IN CALIFORNIA. Our San Frftnciiro Correspondence.

Sas Fraxcjsco, Nov. 11, 1859. The Iniurrutum at Harper St. at Guar H'trn Block? Neo United Stat The Silver 2A? Almadrn Suit? A Otue of llomkid Indian War Tbe overlan.1 mail from St. Louis, whish arrived last night with dates to October 20, brought us Intelligence oi tbe abolition outbreak at Harper's Ferry.

The surest forms the thyme of discussion In every quarter. The republicans condemn tbo actors in the ixsurreotion as vigorously as democrats, but claim that Brown and his associates were insane, and that any attempt to fasten ou the republican party responsibility for the wild attempt us unjust and without ground. We have in California a lirgo number of Virginlnns, who, of course, feel deeply con cerned altoit tie outbreak, and their satisfaction at its suppression may be easily conceived. The United States sloop- of- war St. Marys had arrived at Guymas for the purpose of demanding satisfaction for the expulsion of Captain Stone and hi3 surveying party.

Up to last the St. Marys had not made any demonstration against the city On the 27th of this month the Vase of the government reserve block, situated between Washington, Jackson, Sansome and Battery streets, will expire. The Custom House and United States Appraiser's store at present stand on the ground. The property was leased Novambsr 27, 1849. fof ten years.

After tho 27'h wh tbe contract will expire, the property passes into hands of the government, who will collect the ground rents or purchase ths buildings on the block are pirtly occupied by sub -lessees from Palmer, Cook as is provided in the original lease of 1849. We are intormc.l by those who should be well posted on this subject, that the government has in contemplation tbo erection of a number of elegant federal structures upon tllii block, for whi'h an attempt will be made to obtain appropriations during the approaching These will embrace United States Circuit and District Court buildings, a Branch Mint, Surveyor General's, Ituliw Agency and other otlice3. Theffc is ample for these, the being one hundred varas.and measuring 275 feet each way. Improvements on the extended scale which such buildtogs would probably bo could not fail to materially enhance the value of property in that section of the city. The rcjiorts from the Washoe silver mines, in Carson Valley, continue very favorable.

All acc junta agree in representing the mines us exceedingly rich, and the con tinued arrival of silver ore, of an average value of $3,000 per ton, in this city, shows that Washoe is a very ditter ent place from Frazer. The disastrous results of former excitements or this cbarae'er have rendered our people cautious, and it is therefore not likely that any general stampede will take place for Washoe until the most Irre fraguble proof is given of the mines being extensive and rich enough to justify people seeking their fortnnes there. The winter is severe in Carson Valley, and lor som? tiiuo to come provisions will bo both scarce and high. Carson City, about sixteen miles from the diggings. tsTast building up, ami lots obtain estravagant prices.

In reading the glowing accounts from the mines two things must be recollected: tho interested motives of real estate specula tors and merchants, and the strong desire of tho politicians of Carson Valley to increase its population, with tho view of its organization as a Territory. The San Jose Tribunr remarks that a burning feeling of indignation pervades the whole community in Santa Clara Valley in consequence of the continued stoppage of the New Almaden quicksilver mine. If th? United States government or any other Claimant thinks proper to dispute the validity of tho title to tbe mine, this is no reason why it shouid berTlosed and hundreds of people thrown out of employment. It has caused great distress among the working people in tho locality, and all branches Industry have more or less suffered la consequence. A SINfllLAR CASK oy HOXK1DB.

John J. Barmore was tried on Monday last, in the Twelfth Plstrict Court, for the manslaughter of 1'eU-r O'Keefe, and acquitted. The case presented some singular features. Deceased, a young man, one day last August went on a riding excursion with a friend. They hired a buggy, and visited during tho afternoon a number of barrooms, where they partook freely of intoxicating liquor.

Near to the city, on the Mission road, is a place called tho Odeon saloon, of questionable reputation, kept by two women. They called at this house several times, where they also drank. O'Keefe "sired to remain, whilo his companion objected; but the former had his way and the other parted with him at nine o'clock in the evening, promising to roturn in the boggy at ten, when they could both go home together. At eleven o'clock O'Keefe left tho saloon with his friend, but instead of going home they drove to other houses. Meantime they partook freely of drink.

At midnight they started irom the Mission lor San Francisco. Barmore, who lives on the Mission road, was at this time walking on the road, on his way home. The two men in the buggy approached him, driving furiously. O'Keefe declared to his companion, out of mere recklessness, that he woqjd ride over Barmore, and proceeded to carry his threat into execution. By a bare chance Barmore escaped, when deceased jumped ont of the vehicle and had an altercation with the man and Anally struck him.

The buggy went on with its single occupant, who, on his return, found O'Keefe stretched on the road in a dying condition, and the Btranger, whom neither knew, gone. In this state of affairs, tho police were called and carried to the spot by deceased's companion, wncre O'Keefe was found dead. On a search being made, a scissors was dls -overed near by, which fitted exactly a wound in deceaacd's breast in the region of the heart, which had caused death. Thekeep1 or of the Odeon, a woman, and tbe companion of O'Keefe, wero arrested, and tho general opinion seemed to be that they were tbe guilty parties. The bad reputation of the house where O'Keefe had spent a great part of the day, tho finding of a pair of sslssors, and the mystery banging over the third person said to have been met on the road, conspired strongly against the parties in custody.

Two days passed, when Barmore published a statement acknowledging himself as the man who bad been encountered on tho road, and declaring his willingness to submit to tbe laws. Tho scissors wal his property, having taken it to a cutler in the morning for repair, and re turning home bo carried it in his hand when tho attempt was made to drive over him. As ho was assaulted by O'Keefe. not knowing but it was his intention kill him, he struck out with tbo hand holding tbe instrument, but without the sligbest design to kill or even seriously injure his antagonist. In his burry to leave he dropped tbe scissors, which was subsequently found.

The jury by their verdict were of the opinion that the killing was justillable. Tint imius war Geo. Kibbe, Adjutaut General, is now prosecuting a war of extermination agaiust the Indians inhabiting tho northern counties. He has under his cotnmand about one hundred volunteers. The style of warfare adopted towards tbe degraded Indians is, the first place, meet inhuman, and next a disgrace to both the State and nation.

They are slaughtered in scores while in a helpless condition, and extermination is the avowod policy of what is called a campaign. A correspondent, one of the volunteers, writing from Pitt river, November 1, The capturing of 400 prisoners and tbe destruction of eighty formidable warriors, by a company of men not exceeding ninety, in the short space of seventy-five days, is worthy not only of repetition, but of much commendation. Nor is this all that Uiey navo accomplished. They havo divided the from band? pursuing each with rapidity and determination, not allowing them time to gather acorns nor seeds nutftoient for winter consumption, dospoiled them or their fishing grounds, the source from which they derive their staple nourishment, and so hemmel them in, that when mountains becomu en wrapt in their 'snowy anil these allays assume their hoary costume, the Indian mustsuccumb at tho advancing footstep of the white man, or full beneath his greater facility and power.

One will bo 1 exclusively devoted to American paintings, another to pictures of tbo diUbrent foreign schools and a third to statuary, both native and foreign. Arrangements will be made nbroad by which artists will bo encouraged to send over their for exhibition and sale to these col1 lections. It the absence of government galleries, such as arc everywhere to be found in Europe, a commercial cnI terprise of this character is the best substitute that can be devised for them. In the hands of a man of Mr. DerI by known taste and ample means, it cannot fail to succeed, for there is really not a single gallery in the city which is suitable to the exhibition of a collection of any importance.

There is at present on exhibition at Goupil'a a marine view, the Sunderland Lighthouse, on the north coast of England? which Is well worth the attention ofconnoisI sours. It Is by a young artist, who has recently arrived in this country, Mr. M. F. H.

de Haas, brother of Mr. de Haas, the landscape painter. The ts of atmosphere and water in this picture show a close study of the ever-changing aspects of elements. The sea has all the transparency of the reality, while the clouds seem to be in actual movement. Besides its general character of truthfulness, the texture of the work evidences a bold and well-skilled hand.

In the same room and by the same artist there is a smaller Seashore, near Granville, Normandy? which reminds one forcibly of the manner and handling of Stan field. Mr. de Hass is a pupil of the well known Dutch marino painter, louls Meyer, of the Hague. A large painting by Andrea Gastaldf, illustrating a scene In Byron's poem of "Parislna," is at on exi hibltion at the Dusseldorir Gallery. This picture w.i out here three years ago; but, owing to the lett-jr au1 nouncing its shipment missing the consignee, it has lain perdu in the Custom House until recently.

In composition and drawing the work has all the characteristics of the modern French school, in which the painter lias been chictly educated; but in coloring it shows all the richness and warmth of an Italian taste. There is a hardness in the drawing of the female figure which somewhat from the efloct of the picture, but in other respects it is undeniably a work of great merit. The statue of "Tho Dead Pearl Diver" in tlie same ga'lery, is deserving of careful inspection. It to by an American sculptor Mr. Paul Akers, of Portland who has been studying for some years in Rome.

The attitude chosen by the artist for his subject is one of the most difficult that could been selected the body being to be cast by the waves on a rock, the head and limbs drooping below the level of the chest As may be imagined, It required considerable anatomical knowledge and skilfulness of treatment to Impart to a figure thus disposed the aspect peculiar to its condition. It is but justico to say that Mr. Akers has been very successful in this part of his task, and has thereby proved his claims to be considered as an educated sculptor. In point of manipulation the statue leaves nothing to be desired, the execution of the details, but more particularly of the Ashing net which is secured round the waist, proving the great lalior that has been bestowed upon them. The defects of the work arc to be found in the head and features, which arc not only too classic, but out or proportion.

We do notsoc the necessity of following, in a work of this sort, a (J reck type, nor, in doing o. of violating one of the canons of Greek art. The Etatue of a Child Chasing a Butterlly," by David Richards occupies a dark corner in the apartment In which the last work is exhibited. Considering the dltllcnlties which the sculptor has had to contend with, this statue merits praise. Tho face Is beautifully modelled, and if the hair had not been massed so heavily, the bead would have been perfect.

To the figure no exception can betaken, save in regard to tho lower limbs. They aro sadly out of proportion, and spoil tho general effect of a really meritorious work. Wo are persuaded that if Mr. Richards had only a fair chance of Improving himself, he would become In time ono of our most accomplished sculptors. Obituary-.
