Appalling Catastrophe.


One of the most appalling catastrophcs
which has ever shocked the country, occur
led on Tuesday, the 10Th. at Lawrence,
Massachusetts. About 5io'clock in the af-
tern oon the Pemberton Mills fell in with a
tremendous crash. Six or seven hundred
operatives were at work in them at the
time, and the lowest estimates state that
the number of those buried in the ruins
was at least three hundred.
a large number of. dead bodies were
removed from the ruins some fifty or more
were taken out MORALLY wounded, and 9th
ers less seriously injured. While two thou
sand men were at work with that energy
to which such suffering as they witnessed
could prompt them, fire broke out in the
ruins, and in ten minutes the whole mass
was covered with sheet of flame. The
rescuers were driven back and obliged to
leave the remainder to their fate, At
least two hundred have perished in the
ruins. Oh

HOn a second trial, the Anti slavery
men in the Nebraska Legislature, succeeded
in getting bill through both branches Of
their Legislature prohibiting slavery in
that State, but Gov. BLACK has vetoed il
Gov. BLACK is true type of the Slave
Democracy. He does not fear to confess
that he is in favor of tie extension of sla-
very throughout the Union. /. Democrats

will do it reluctantly, Others will refuse,
and 90 into the ranks of the enemy, but
as general thing, they will endorse this
new platform in their creed, and swear that
they have never changed. We have shin
ing examples of this progress in our town.
Men, who few years ago were Anti-Sla-
very, now declare it an institution of the
Bible, and that its dissemination over our
whole land would be attended with good
results. That's the way to talk. Walk
up and get the brand.

he says that the delay in organization of

Light Wanted.

The Cleveland Plaindealer copies ap
proviDgly the fulsome abuse of the Ne.s
York Tribune, Ohio State Journal and
other Black Republican papers heap upon
the Democratic party, and upon Demo-
cratic Administration; and .pice rersa The
Black Republican papers approFingly copy
from the Pldindealer great portion oi
its original articles. Now since The Plain
dealer was considered Democratic paper,
we would like to know whether it has gone
over to the Black Republicans, or whether
the Tribune, Journal, DC, has joined the
Democratic party. If it is the latter the
Democratic party has certainly left US, and
we are "lying round loose" VIII some
friend give US light on the subject?-
Holmes County Farmer.
We hope our neighbors and the Plain
dealer folks will fix this matter up so that
each can remain where they now are. But
for man to doubt whether he is dem
ocrat nowadays, is reasonable, for trying
10 remain in the party is just about as
difficult task as for man TO try to ride
two horses at once, that are running .oppo-
site directions.

GooD.-An intelligent free negro named
Anderson, was recently kidnapped at Gill
lieothe, in this State, and sold into slavery.
A few days since Anderson returned on
the the Underground R. r., accompanied
BY two large, healthy looking negroes, and
all three are now safe iD Canada. Rather
an Improbable job that for the Slave buy

HTho Indiana Democracy in State
Convention assembled about week since,
had an interesting time of it. There was
cussing and yelling, tearing of shirts and
peeling of eye brows, hot words and hard
blows, and some of the Delegates went
home wearing badge, in the shape
Of black-eye or cash on the face
This was slight improvement upon the
Democratic State Convention held at Col
umbus, on the 5th inst. There was YELL
ing, swearing, and one fight in it, but the
Indianians carry off the palm. Democracy
is getting to be great institution.

PROPOSED LETTING OF THE PUBLIC
WoRKs.-Mr. Schleich, Democrat, has in-
troduced in the Senate voluminous bill
to let the Superintendence and repairs of
the Public Works of the State, by contract.
1t embodies many points in the old law,
but is still more stringent in guarding the
mode of giving out and administering con
tracts. 1t subdividcs the Public Works in
to eight sections, and prohibits the Board
of Public Works from entertaining any
bids exceeding in the aggregate the sum OF
S2S7,7o0 per anuum. Contracts to be
given to the s'lowest responsible bidder"
A bill has been introduced in the House
to provide for the sale of the Public Works
and the subject bids fair to occupy large
share of attention in the General Assem-
bly,.
The proper disposition and management
of the Public Works is not only vexed
question, but one of much interest to tax
people. A thorough investiga-
tion of the whole subject by competent
Commission as suggested by Gov. Denni-
son, would be satisfactory and beneficial.
1t is of the first Importance to make our
canals at least selfsustaining, and such an
investigation as proposed would be likely
to result in changes of policy and retrench-
ment of expenses looking to that desirable
nt.-Leader. ,.

There are 5l,49s free blacks residing in
Eastern Virginia, SO that the black exceeds
the white population in that District, by
some 10000. In western Virginia, the
proportion of Slaves is quite small and
steadily diminishing. Indeed that part Of
the State is destined ere long to be rid Of
Slavery, Free Labor taking its place.

held State Convention. At this Con-
sention the Douglasites were the victors.

Respectfully,
.7 SEQ VIM. j. McNEMAR,
P. N. Luney's Creek, Hardy co., Va.

| REMARKS.
l. You are certainly mistaken, Mr. Nc
Nemar, in respect to your duties in this
particular. You are an officer Of the
general government, appointed TO deliver
letters and papers to the persons TO whom
they are directed, and no law of the United
States authorizes you to destroy the pro
perty of your fellow citizens while it is
passing through your hands.
2. And provided it were your duty to
detain in your office, at Luney's Creek, all
sineendiary matter" you would bave no
right TO detain and destroy the Religious
Telescope. 1t does not contain incendiary
matter, nor entertain or publish incendiary
sentiments. 1t holds and disseminates, on
the question of slavery, the sentiments of
Washington and Jefferson, Of Patrick Hem
ry and Chief Justice Marshal; and no oth-
er. Those distinguished patriots of whom
Virginia and the world might be proud,
held that American slavery was social,
political and moral evil, and that peacea-
bic and constitutional measures should be
employed for its restriction and final ex-
tirpation. And we here distinctly chal-
lenge you to find an utterance of the Re-
kgio,s Telescope, condemnatory of slavery,
not found in more forcible terms in the
writings and speeches of the Virginia
statesmen named. Would you deem it
your duty, Mr.. McNemar, to burn Thom-
as Jcfferson's "Notes on Virginia" should
that book find its way into the mailsl
8. But, suppose, sir, that sentiments on
the subject of slavery, not endorsed by our
wisest statesmen, had found uttera ce in
the Telescope, is that a reason why you
should burn itl Have postmasters on this
side of the line right to burn the Rict-
mond Enquirer, Charleston lhereury, and
similar advocates of slaverya By no means.
We regard ourselves as free people, and
should deem it the meanest and cruelest
tyranny could we not subscribe for what
ever books and papers We might choose to
read. And have not the free yhite citi-
Gems Of Virginia, IN this free land, tie
right to choose achat books and papers they
w'H read! Has it cofne to this that res
pectable citizens in the Old Dominion
that men Of character and standing--must
ask petty, party post master what papers
he shall subscribe for, and read Shame
Is this the freedom for which our fathers
Of the Revolution fought and bledl Tell
il not in Rome or Vienna.

WAsHIsaToN, FRIDAY evening" Jan. ls.
No ballot to-day. The House refused
TO adopt the plurality rule, and adjourned
until Monday, with less prospect of elect
ing Speaker than ever before. Light
ming must soon strike somebody, some
where. The Democracy are shattered
The Republicans, except Stanton, are firm
for Sherman. The Americans say they
will not embrace Lecomptonism AGAIN.
Anti-Lecomptonites say they expect Clark,
of New York, will never return to Buchan-
anism again.
The New York Posts letter says:
WASHINGTON, Jan. IL.
During portion of yesterdays debate,
Senators Douglas and Crittenden were in
the House. Douglas is quite anxious to Sc
cure the election of a regular democrat for
speaker. If the thing is ever done, it must
be with the consent of Clark and Adrian,
and Douglas will claim the credit of their
repentance should they go back to the Lee
compton fold, and will demand the quid
pro 9nO at Charleston.
Senator Crittenden, on the other hand,
is opposed to democratic success. He
uses his influence, believe, against the
Hamilton project, and he has influence
enough left TO break down any such coali-
ton. He doubtless sees that it is most
ruinous policy for his little party to merge
itself In the democratic disunion party of
the South. sl .7s iaaa

shows, whether he carried it into the
House Intentionally or not, that he has q
true appreciation of the proper method of
dealing with Southern bullies.
He did not apologize for carrying it, and
stated among the reasons for it, that it was

death, caused by adhesion to Douglas pol
icy. Such course shows either cowareice
or ingratitude.
