BQrSomo of the incidents of tlie late -terriblb disaster' at Lawrence, Hass. The streets ore.thronged with citizens and strangers, and crowds of persons surround the ruins and besiege the doors'of tho City Hall,- to learn the fate of friends, or examino the bodies brought out for recognition. At the Hall, about twonty of the wounded lie ,1a ' wh\ch it commenced, in relation to the action of the South Americans in Con. gress, retires mostinglorioUsiy from tlie field, and scetUS bohtent with the re* mark, our article was "a reply in puti/kation of the tonne being pursued by the South Americans, but not an an- swer to hls interrogatories.” What were those interrogatories but inquiries into our approval' or' disapproval of the - the South. Americans in Con- issafesat""' These unfortunates pre<ent a most pitiable spectacle. Many of them lto- veringbetween lifo and death, and are bruised by tlio falling mass, or blistered by tlie flames, that recognition is very'difficult; others escaped with unmutilatod features and less serious bruises. All who retain consciousness exhibit remarkable fortitude in their distress, and but few expressions of pain are heard among the helpless vic tims.

Buf tf wo can break this spell of enohantmeut into which he has falleu, wo will endeavor, for his especial cnlightment, to make our posi tion upon this subject somewhat plain er. First then, in the language of tho Virginia ltesolutfon,'which wo quoted in pur .pther article, we * believe that “all the elements of Opposition to lle- publiean ism and its candidate for speak er Ought to unite upon any terms con sistent with fairness and honor, when soever by such union its defeat can be accomplished, and the organization of the House be effected.” Then, if the South Americans could at any time, defeat Sherman, by voting for, the Democratic candidate, we would consider it their unquestionable duty to do ko—and -he consider it equally as iui A Specimen of Abolitiou Sincerity. The Rev. Dr. Richard Fuller of - Bal timore thus writes to H r - Everett:-. 1 “I think I speak accurately when I say that hitherto every sacrifice for the emancipation of slaves lias been mado Swlnilling.

The hospital of Scutari not the bloody field of Solferino could have notexhibitodamorofrightful scene. Bending over several of the lifeless forms were their female relatives, bemoaning their loss with a low wail ing, which would havo melted the stout est hearts. Before the fire broke out among the ruins, voices of many persons wore heard, who wore apparently confined in open spaces formed by tho material of tlie building as it fell, and who appear ed to bo not much injured. Tho prog ress of tho conflagration soon brought those imprisoned victims to a most terri ble death. Brisking oct or the. Fins.—About 9 o’clock, a fire broko out from the en gine-room at the south end of thelmild- ig, and soon spread over the whole Lin. Tho scone now was heart-sicken ing, according to every description.— Conscious of tho tortuous death which awaited the’ unfortunates whose suffer ings had not been ended by death, the the bystanders were unable to afford them any relief. In ono cose one of those persons was helped to a glass of water by parties who were endeavoring to extricate them. She said that near her, sepera- ted only by single beams, woro six men, utiiqjured. Alas, they were all consu med in the flames, which spread with great rapidity, llow many were thus burned there is no data for estimating. A person who was at the fire from its bo ginning, became cognizant of throe par- ties of individuals—from four to six in number—who thus perished. Tho vicinity of tlie mills looks very much liko a fast charnel house, ns lit ters, having on them corpses, are con stantly passing through tho streets in tliat quarter. Tub Scx.ni at tiie City Ham..—The Iiali of the city -government building was used os a hospital forsuch of tlie wound -od.As it;was deemed necessary to convey thither. On one psllot lay a little girt, with a beautiful pule countenance, knit with tho Auffpitug she could not conceal, yet unmurmuring. She was watched over bya weeping Mend, apparently her father, anil my heart was-, rejoiced at tho announcement by tho physician that'she was pot dangerously, though 'Severely, wounded. : 8till furtlicr, on a pallet, was a young woman groaning with pain, from several broken bones, intcrnnl injuries and a bruised head. Half a dozen disconso late fyiendsweye about her weeping, for the physician had said she must die. • Near.the platform was it poor German suffering excrutiating pain. Ho could not talk English, and no one from tlie “fatherland” had found him. His cose too, is feared to be liopoless. . On tho opposite side are tlirce girls— all young and beautiful, but with the cold liantl of death already laid upon thorn. Many others were there who alono would excite tho sympathy of those who saw them. A large room on the corner of tho hall had been set apart as n de pository for tlie bodies of tho dead, and this was literally covered with .mangled corpses. Young men, and those Jiast the meridian of life, women and young girls, all lay there—a ghastly sight to behold. • Previous to the fire, two sisters were together and comparatively unhurt.— They would have beon rescued. Hear ing tho itiar of flames, they exclaimed “Oh God 1 we have got to ilie.” ' Another woman shrieked out pite ously that her hair was burning, hut the flames soon after silenced her.- The mayor of Lawrence has publish ed a notice stating tlmt the number of dead and missing is 115, and of wound ed 165. Of tho latter some will undoubt edly d^e, but much the larger part it is thought, will survive.

No Twi roii -SwArriNo.—An Indiana man was travelling down the Ohio, on a steamer,'with a mare and a two-year old. colt, when by a sudden careen' of tlie boat, all three were tilted into tho river. Tlie Hoosier, ns he rose, puffing and blowing above water, caught hold of tho tail of the colt, not having a doubt that tho natural instinct of the animal would carry him safe ashore. Tho old mare took a “bee line” for tlie shore, but tlie frlghtenod colt swam lustily down the current,' with it* owner still hanging fast. “Let go the colt, and liaiig on to the old mare!” shouted some of his friends. “Phree, booli!” exclaimed tho Hoo sier, spouting the water from his mouth and shaking his bead like a Newfound land dog, “it’* all very tine, your telling mo to let go the colt; but to n man that can’t «wim, this ain’t exactly *tho time for swapping hortes."

As Sir Robert was croatcd a Baronet in the year 1785, it is probable that tlie verses woro composed about tlie end of tlie 17th or the beginning of tlie 18th contury.

Yet tlie South is denounced for not at ouco immola ting four thousand millions of property guaranteed to them by the Constitution; lor nor at onco abandoning to weeds and brambles millions of fertilo acres; for not breaking up their entire social system, and either driving their ser vants from their comfortable homes, to become vagabonds in other States, which will again drive them out of their borders—or else harboring in tlieir midst, hordes of discontentoi, indolent vagrants, utterly unfit for freedom, who would certainly bo exterminated, un less in mercy they were again reduced to servitude. Because they will not cjo, all this; will; not inflict' (his suicidal wrong upon themselves, and try this fatal experiment upon the sere.nits.tliey love—because they will not thus ruiq tlieir families, amt desolate their hearths ond homes, and nil this in violation of tlieir best convictions of duty, they arc to be the objects of. iuee*sunt calumny; to be pillaged und murdered in cold blood by their own fellow-citizens, wlip are heroes and martyr* for doing tills butchery,” . ... ggjrTho following is an extract from Senator Iverson’s speech in tho Senate on tlie loth inst: He hoped that tlie .South, in tho np- proacliing Charleston Convention, would demand a clear enunciation and enforcement of her rights. Tlio am biguities of tho Kansas Nebraska bill, and of tho Cincinnati platform must be discarded, unless a man above all suspicion was put in nomination for tlie Presidency. Mr. I. indicated Mr. Senator Hunter, Vice President Breck- onridge, and tlie Hon. A. II. Stephens as gentlemen for any one of whom he would cheerfully vote without requiring a platform in advance. But he hoped thattlie delegates from the Southern States, as a condition precedent to any nomination, would demand a recogni tion of tho right' and duty of Congress to protect slave property in nll-the Ter-- ritories of the Union, and, failing in this lie thought it would only remain for them to withdraw anil reorganize tlie party on sucii a basis ns should secure the equality of tlie States. He thought it likely that at the approaching elec- a consorvatire man might be chosen to tlie Presidential Chair, but lie did not doubt tlmt the “irrepressible conflict” would go on until it ended in a rupture of the Uniou and the formation of a Southern Confodracy.*' .' Decline or the Opposition ' Strength in the Northwest.—The following table exhibiting the Opposition majorities in the Northwestern State* at the last eloo- tions, as well as those of 1856, shows how tremondously that school of poli tics lias declined in popular favor. The total vote is os large if not larger than it was in 1856: 1859 1856 Iowa .3,000 16,900 Wisconsin 4,000 18,000 Michigan 8,000 20,000 Ohio 10,050 46,000 Illinois, in 1858, gave2000 Democrat ic majority; and in 1859 it was 29,000 Opposition Indiana, in 1858, was 3000 Demo cratic; and in 1856 it was 1900 Demo cratic. • The result, therefore, is, in those six Northwestern States, tlio Opposition ma jority of 120,000 in 1856, has been re duced, by the late elections, to 23,000.— On.

Superphosphate Jl had been made in England, by treating burnt bones with sulphuric geld, and by the formation of sulphate of lime, thni abstract ing one atom of lime Item the bones, a solu ble phosphate had been tunned. In 1847, J. J. Mapes made a aeries of experiments, thus: he found, analytically, that Peruvian Ouatio contained the necessary elements for insu ring tho growth of plants, but not In the right relati ve proportions to each other. He instituted a series of experiments, practical ly. by which he proved that one hundred pounds of burnt bones, treated with fifty-six pounds of sulphuric acid, thirty-six pounde of Peruvian Guano, twenty pounds of sul phate of ammonia, formed a mixture every way superior to Peruvian Guano, and tliat it would nut excite the soil, but would con tinually add to Us fertility. He hud found that one barrel of blood, fTesh Irom the animal, mixed with a cord of organic mutter, would, by fermentation, pro duce a manure equal to a cord of well rotted stable manure, lie further found that sov- ontcen barrels of blood, when dried, would mnko ono barrel, nnd that blood could bo procured at compuritivrly little cost, iu cer tain sections ; tliat it could be dried by cook ing and pressing so a* to produce a dry now- dor, and by-adding to tlio above named in gredients an equal weight of dried bullock's blood, a manure is formed one hundred pound* of which are cpual in [lower and lusting ef fect to one hundred and eighty-five pounds of the best Peruvian Guuno. Since he has oili-red his invention, to thp farm.-rs of tho country, ruins fifty companies have imitated this nrticla und. r various names, and for the purpuse ot rendering it popular, have traduced Prof. Mapos and his urticln, claiming to make that ol a superior quality.

Notwithstanding all this,the demand for Mapes' Kitrogcniscd Superphosphate of Lime ha* doubled.
