was taken from the ruins. apparently about 26
years old, but so shockfngly Mutilated that
ev en- the eyes Of the nearest friend could not
possibly recognize any familiar lineaments--
Her face ives charred and burned to the depth
of about half an inch, and the back part of
her head and all the way behind her ears we're
also burned to the bone otherwise the flames
did not appear to reach her. Her bosom and
lower part OF her body are uninjured. She
had probably lain in 9 place where her head
alone was exposed TO the flames, and hal
burned her hands in striving to protect it.
Nothing remains standing at the scene OF the
disaster except two immense chimneys through
which ran the shafting which carried on the
works.
In the various ruins the wood and timber
work has pretty much all been removed from
the spot, and nothing now remains but a
crushed and Mingled mass of bricks, mortar
and broken machinery.

Douglas and the Administration.

The respective friends Of Judge Doug
las and the Administration have held
their Conventions in Illinois and ap-
pointed two distinct sets of Delegates
to the Charleston Convention. Each of
those State organizations has enuncat
cd its position in reference to the ques-
tion Of Slavery in the Territories. We
have published the platform Of each
wing of the Illinois Democracy, in &C.
tense, that our readers may understand
tho precise difference between them.-
1t will be perceived that the difference
consists in di.similar interpretations given
to the Cincinnati Platform-that each
calls for the re-adopton of that samo
platform, pledging its friends to cor
dial support Of the Candidates which
may be placed upon it. A faithful ad-
herence to these promises is all that is
necessary to insure success in the ap-
preaching canvass.
Or Thursday, We took occasion to
give our own private views on this sub
ject Of controversy We did it with no
desire to force them upon others, for We
smphaticslly deny that an avowal of at
tachment to one or the other phase of
this mooted question is cause for sep
arate party organization, or should dis
rupt the National Democracy. 1t will
not, for the reason that the friends OF
Judge Douglas and Of the Admin;stra.
tion proclaim, in advance, that it shall
not.
1t is cheering to witness the express
ed determination of tho Democratic
representations in different sections oi
the Union, to harmonic upon the
Charleston nominees. Democrats claim
it as . perogative to differ, and to ex-
press that difference prior to the action
of regularly constituted convention Of
the party. This they are doing in and
out Of Congress, bnt so soon - the
standard bearers shall have been desig
mated, murmurings will cease and then
every nerve will be strung to secure tri.
umph in the great battle to be fought

THE FRUITS OF COERCION SHOWN.
Soon after, on the 9Th of June, 1887, when in
odentally adverting to this subject, he said ANY
Government for the United States formed on the
supposed prac:icabiliy Of using force against the
unconstitutional proceedings Of the States, would
prove as visionary and fallacious the GOvern-
ment Of Congress-" evidently meaning the then
existing Congrese Of tue old Confederation. With
out descending to particulars, it may be safely as
serted that the power to make waE against State
is at variance with the whole spirit and intent o.
the Constitution. Suppose such war should re-
suit in tho conquest OF State, how ore we to gov
ern i! afterwards? Shall we hold il as provinces
and govern it by despotic Fower9 In the na-
turo of things we could not by physical force con-
troll the will Of the Teoplc, and compel them to
elect Senators and Representatives to Congress'
and to perform oil the other duties depending up
on their own relation, and required from the free
citizens of free State as a constitutional membeS
Of :he COnfederecT. But If we possessed the
power, would 1t te wise to exercise it under TIE
existing circumstances Tho object would DO
doubtless to preserve the Union, but would nol
only present the most eifecIual means of Destroy
ing it, but would Danish all hope OF its peaceable
Reconstruction. Besides in the fraternal conflict
vast amount of blood and treasure would be ex-
| pended, rendering future reconciliation 6etweeh
the States impossible. In the mean time, who
can foretell what would be the suferings and pri-
valons of the people during its existence. The
fact is that our Union rests upon public opinion,
and can never be cemented by the blood of its
citizens shed in civil war If it cannot live in the
the affections Of the people, it must enc dsy per-
sh. Congress possesses many means Of prcserv-
ling By Cancellation; bot the sword was not placed
in their hands TO preserve it by force. But may
bo permitted solemnly to invoke my couutrymen
to pause, and deliberate before they determine to
destroy this, the grandest temple, which has etsT
been dedicated to human freedom since the
world began 1t has been consecrated by the blood
of Fathers, by the glories of our past, and by
the hopes of the future and the Union he's already
made us the most prosperous, and ere long will,
if preserved, render the most powerful nation
on the face Of the earth.
