The Burlington llawkcyc gives the
following account Of the arrest of Geo
Lawrence, at Montrosc, on the 18th
inst, the alleged scduccr of Laura
Harvey, of Rockford, ILL.,, and accom-
plicc of Liant McComb in her murder
at Ottumwa some time since:
lie had been lurking around kco-
kuk, and being seen there his dcs-
cription so conceded with that pub
him. On hearing that McComb was
arrested at Council Bluffs he started
in the cars from keokuk to Montrosc,
and was gone before the officers were
aware of it. A special train was dis
patched after him with the officers on
board and he was arrested as above.
A card was found upon him with the
name of Laura Harvey written in
full upon it, and it was reported that
in his valise were found some of Miss
Harvey's letters. The city Marshal
of Rockford, Ill.,, is at Ottumwa, and
the prisoner was taken there for idcn-
tification."
The old proverb still holds true,
Murder will out"
The thief arrested at Omaha, turns
out not to be McComb the murderer,
though strongly resembling him.
1t is source of poignant NORTH
cation to President Buchanan that his
letter declining nomination for the
Presidency was not read, owing to
the contemptuous treatment of his
name by the Charleston convention.
Gov. Bigler had the precious missive
in charge, and it is said carried it to
the White House few days since in
the most mournful manner The Pres
idcnt received it with a good deal Of
ill-temper on account of the indiffcr,
encc of the Pennsylvania delegation
to his well-known wishes to be can
didate, and their want of tact in not
giving him chance to make a last
appeal to his countrymcn and Divine
Providence. The President was OK
tremely anxious to have the letter
read, but as he did not receive a sin,
gle vote, poor BigIer could find no
excuse for reading it. Alas and
were there none SO poor as to do him
reverence ?
