LAWRENCE DoYLE.-Mr. Pillsbury publishes
a long article in this weeks Standard on the
death of Lawrence Doyle, from which we
make the following extract:
We can conceive of no greater wrong that
can be perpetrated upon fellow being than to
convict him of an infamous crime when inno-
cent. To be murdered would be kindness in
comparison to such a wrong. That Lawrence
Doyle suffered that monstrous wrong at the
nately happened to live we have no question.
Guilty of no crime, he has been incarcerated
in felon's prison and suffered the unuttera-
BILE anguish of living death for seven and a
halt years, aud now that death has kindly re-
leased him, his name rests under mountain
weight OF obloquy and legacy of anguish is
left to his relatives and friends. Poor Doyle!
We had hoped he might live to see the truth
of his innocence brought to light and his name
relieved from nnmerited Obloquy and reproach,
but it was not so to be. He protested his in
nocence to the last. When he had become
very sick, so much SO as to be unconscious at
times, Warden Rice talked with him and in
formed him that he thought he could not live,
about the murder, and he replied that he could
tell nothing more than he had already told,
Probably his accusers, in their unwillngness
to see and realize the terrible wrong done to
him. and in their eagerness to justify their own
proceedings, will see nothing in his death bed
denlals but a logged persistence in falsehood
and crime, but prejudced opinions do not
change facts nor relieve from responsibility
those who act upon them, whether judges, law
yers or citizens. Although Doyle's sufferings
are ended and the development of the truth in
regard to the terrible crime of which he was
convicted can do him no possible good ether
wise than by relieving his name of the obloquy
resting upon it, we still hope the mystery con
nected with this murder may yet be solved and
the truth made known, and If ever 1t is, his en-
tire innocence will be established.

DISASTER TO AN ENGLISH STEAMER.-The
steam fruiter Camilla arrived at New York
Tuesday, baviog on board the passengers of
the steamship Venezuelan, of the West India
and Pacific Steamship Co. of Liverpool. who
were transferred to the Camilla on the 10th of
March in lat 80 30 N, Ion. A 10 w, or between
800 and 400 miles to the West of the Azores.
Venezuelan is fine iron screw steamer, of
1347 tons register, and plies on the line between
Liverpool and Aspinwall. She sailed from
Liverpool March 9th with full cargo, $4,000
in specie, 13 passengers, the mails and 45 per-
sons in the crew. She experienced gales from
the time of sailing, and broke down on the
18th inst, the rudder and stern post dropping
of, the water rushing in at the aperture made
into the store room of the vessel. Capt Crow
ell coolly took measures to keep the water in
that part OF the vessel, and had the cargo
shifted by the crew and passengers in order
to bring the hole out of water, which was five
feet below the water line. The steamer
Camilla bore down on the 10th instant,
Capt. Crowell said when the boat left: II am
not at all uneasy about my ship, as the bulk
head keeps perfectly tight, and will tighten
her aft, aud the first fine weather we shall Try
and plug up the hole in the steamer" In q
few hours otter the ships parted company a
Venezuelan could not, in her crippled condi-
ton, weather it. Mr. Hunter, the Purser saws
that the Venezuelan was ill-provided with any
stuff with which to make temporary rudder
She probably has, however, enough with which
to steer her for time, at least, but she is a
long way off shore.
There is strong feeling among the passen-
gers that the Venezuelan did not survive the
gale of the 10th and 18th inst. The Camilla
has had a very boisterous passage The Ven
ezuelean was due at Barbadoes March I'D
She was in the track of a number of steamers
