Old John Brown. --A correspondent of the Iredell (N. C.) Express writes from Charlestown, Virginia, as follows: "The jail, some of the churches, and especially the court-house, in this town, are defaced and tern up in an outrageous manner. The last is the house in which old "Osawatomie" (Brown) was sentenced to death. The lower story was used by the enemy for a horse stable; the upper rooms, galleries, &c., well, for purveys. Not a vestige of furniture, banistering, or anything of the sort, remains. Yesterday I visited the spot where Brown was executed; near it grew a large locust tree, of which nothing is left but a very low stump — every splinter has been carried to all corners of Yankeedom and converted into breastpins, walking-canes, &c., and preserved as relies of the tree on which "John Brown, the martyr," was hung when, in reality, the gallows on which be hanged, sure enough, now constitutes a portion of a certain plarsa in this town."
