John Brown 2

In the 1850's and 60's the North and South were becoming more hostile towards each other due to changing views and small incidents of dislike toward the others views. One of those incidents was John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry, Virginia. John Brown's goal was to steal enough weapons from the national armory and gather enough men so they could march into Kansas and force them to be a colony or state for runaway slaves. The Raid occurred in October of 1859. It was a complete failure in most ways. Most of the men were killed, it didn't free any slaves, and it was over and done with in just under two days. The reason they were caught was because they let a train go through to Washington D.C. after a short hold up. The people obviously told someone and a national defense was sent to stop it.

For the first few months following the raid the Northerners were somewhat upset at what John Brown did. They agreed with him in wanting to free the slaves but not in forcing a colony to become a state for runaway slaves. The New York Tribune mentions this in its December 3, 1859 issue, just a few months after the incident. It states, "There are fit and unfit modes of combating a great evil(slavery); we thing Brown


The review of "The Public Life of Captain John Brown", in the Atlantic Monthly appears to be from a southerner. Who makes it seem like the Northerner's are confused about John Brown. The Book Written by a Northerner describes Brown as a hero and the paper disagrees. The paper also describes the Northerners as timid before but after the raid the anger is awakened in them. This must have stirred up the North, hearing that the South thinks they are afraid. It seems as if the March 4th edition of the Hartford Press is in response to the Atlantic Monthly or another such article. Hartford is clearly from the North and the article makes it very clear that they think the south is bushwhacking. The North appears to be very upset with the south. It is clear that a conflict is about to occur between the North and South. There is a lot of tension between the two sides.
