The Lawrence Catastrophe.

"A T.,
The body Of l.. \. Branch was found to-day, and
the four other bodies previously recovered were lden-
tilted as those of Margaret Colman Catharine Uaui-
gan, Ellen A. Hem, and Jane Thomas.
Services appropriate 10 the occasion were held in all
the churches in the city this morning.
The work on the ruins is suspended tonight.
The Mayor of Lawrence has issued the following
proclamation:
In view of the great calamity which has fallen
upon our city like thunderbolt from cloudless sky,
crushing it with a weight of misery which no earthly
power can raise; sbrouding 1t IN cloud OF anguish
which 10 human hand can dspel, binding it in chains

earnestly beseecb that Tuesday next all the resi-
dents OF Lawrence abstain from their ayocatons and
abos that they set apart that day as one of prayer
that they then meet in their respective places OF wor-
ehp TO join in those religious ceremonies which the
casion demands; and there publicly ask of God that
he would temper our affection with mercy; that he
would restore to health and strength those lam
gushing in pain and suffering; that he would provide
with fathers care for the orphan and widow that lie
would comfort and support those bereft OF husbands

encouraged By shielding such property from taxa
ton, and thas throwing an additional burden upon
the prudent and thrifty. In the matter Of real es'
tate no allowance is made for debts by our present
laws, and 1t would perhaps be difficult to show
good and satisfactory reason why the same rule
should not apply to personal property.
The foregoing is but brief statement Of the lead
ing ideas deliberately stated in this important and
able report With the slight consideration we have
been able to bestow upon it it seems to contain the
germ of much more perfect system of taxation than
now prevails. But of this, the tax-paying public
must Judge for themselves, after careful consdera-
ton of the report itself, which we publish elsewhere

the pamphlet entitled "Le Pape ct lie Congress, is
confirmed; and it is also stated that telegram
from Rome announces the poatponement of the
departure of the first pleuipotentiSy of the States
of the Church for Paris, to be present at the Con-
gress, for the same reason. From Great Britain
we have nothing of political importance. In
Fran,e there was considerable discussion respect
ing the pamphlet referred to above, all insisting
that there is 10 intention of abridgng the powers
of the Pope, it being only contemplated to concen-

the Spanish and Morocco forces had occurred.

We believe The Journal Of Commerce and The
". Y. Express have not yet rePublished Mr..
O'COnor's recent striking letter on the Slavery
question. Are we TO infer from this remarkable
omission that those journals do not accept the views
of this eminent advocated Do they reject the con-
cusion that Slavery just and benefcent in perfect
accordance with the law of God and with the
highest good of both the master and the slave
And DO they regard it as an unjust and nOxious
institution? Or do they think that, though it is
truly divine and phlanthropic, Mr.. O'COnOr is
rather ndiscreet in pressing that truth upon public
attention in the Free States just at present. Let
us have light.

The Washington correspondent OF The journal Of
Commerce says that it is not yet seen how Mr..
Sherman is to obtain the additional votes necessary
to bis election. " But still there is no other
apparent mode by which the election OF Speaker
" can be sooner secured"
The only proper mode is to pass the plurality
rule. The friends of the Administration, Like The
Journal Of COmmree admit that there is no possible
hope of eecting Speaker by majority; and why
don't they cease their factious, disorganzing and
dangerous course in the Houie Pass the plurality
rule and Congress may be ready for work in two
hours. Without it, the country may be Kept in
agitation and alarm for months Only the disuniOn-
list, and the spectators in Post-Office scrip can
desire to prolong the present state of things and by
Is course hitherto the Administration has identified
itself with both those classes Of the public enemies

House, they block the wheels Of Government, they
prolong agitation, they add to the prevailing dis
trust in financial circles. They, as well as the
Administration, are directly responsible for the ex-
ssing state of things, and for consequences still
more threatening and alarming.
In view of their extraordinary pertinacty in their
factous course regardless of the great and delicate
interests of their constituents, and in view of the
position of the party in power generally on this
subject and of the Administration particularly, we
second the suggestion of public meeting OF the
representatives of the trading, industrial CONNER
cial and financial interests Of the city, without
reference to party lines, to be held at some early
day TO demand return to reason and duty on the
part Of those at Washington who are trifllng With
the peace and wcll-beng Of the country. Such
meeting, We cannot doubt, would be attended by
our commercial men, bankers, merchants, and con-
seryative citizens generally. 1t could not fail to
create an influence which would bear eflectually
and promptly upon the course of the disorganizers
at the capital. 1t is time some genuine attemp
were made to restore truly patriotic and health
full state of public feeling, after the past weeks and
months of lying and slanderous partisan efforts to
stimulate irritation and agitation in the country
Ii is papable 70 all who have eyes to see, that
there are men, parties, and journals, which, while
pretending to deprecate agitation, and impudently
processing to be ministers Of conservatism, are yet
doing all in their power to fan the flames OF dlsor-
der and discord by heaping unmerited obloquy upon
their opponents, undoubtedly and collectively, by
utterng and reterating the most insulting
comparisons between Free Labor and Slave
Labor, and by sustaining, either actively or neg
atiyely, the most traitorous disuniOn sentiments.
If the genuine conservatism of this city has any
one duty to discharge plain than another it ia

Ex.PREsIDENT VAN BUREN.

The elder Mr.. Van Buren, wrote letter to the
Upion-saving meeting at Albany, which is pub
lished in the proceedings Of that body. 1t is de-
voted chiefly to John Browns invasion of Virginia.
The cx.President gives rs a reason why Virgins il
entitled TO especial regard and consideration, that
that State surrendered the North West Territory to
Freedom. We are surprised that gentleman of
Mr.. Van Burens years, and experience, and
knowledge, should dwell on an exploded idea like
this. Virgins had really no fair title whatever to
jurisdiction over the NorthWest Territory, when the
Revolution was over II Was fought for and won
by the common blood and treasure, and belonged,
on every principle, TO the common stock. If Mr..
Van Buren means that it was generous of her to
consent to cutting it up into Free States, he
should remember that the Virginia Of that day was
just MS much an Anti Slavery State in principle as
Massachusetts, and that she made no sacrifice
whatever in deyoting that Territory TO Freedom;
but, on the contrary, only acted in accordance with
her most cherished convictions, and under the un-
prompted dictates OF her most enlightened states
men. All that Virginia did in the premises was n
matter Of the most obvious duty and inclination.
NJ The close Oh MS letter, We regret 10 SEQ DIR.
Van Buren, apply phrase to Aaron Burr which
looks little as if the Ex-Piesident were
disposed to deal tenderly with modern trail
tors, or those who may desire TO become 80.
He terms him the highly gifted and Inflated
"Burr." Highly gifted he may have been, but it
the Ex-Presdent designs to excite sympathy, or
any kindred feeling. for the memory of Burr. by
calling him I" Inflated, We demur to the use of the
term. five are to take the late accounts OF that
mans life, written by those who would in some sort
apologize for his faults, and who deprecate the
hsrsh judgments of pOstery; if We would only Judge
by these, We say, wa must pronounce Burr tho
rankest, most odious and csld.blooded villain, who
has ever disgraced our history. 1t is frghtlul, even
of this distsnce Of time, to contemplate tho cool dia,
