Speech, unusual for Its brevity, (for a set speech),

of the slavery question and its reference to the
questions of the day. Mr. Pugh is a secesaionist,
if I know what. that term menu. It is but a day
or two since he said he would perpetuate discord,
if he eould; and I knew what he would say when
be took the floor, but I wee not prepared for
the ability with which be presented his views
and oonolusions. He aneoringly reviled the
psalm•singing to the ULion which takes place

In 1830, the Manufacturer's and Mechanic's
Bank, of Philadelphia, veal chartered with a capital
of $600,000, on which they paid the State a bones
of five per cent., or $30,000. About seven years
afterwards, the bank asked and obtained leave to
reduce their capital to $300,000, but, in 1837, they
again got the privilege to increase it to $OOO,OOO,
agreeing to pay therefor a bonus of three per cent,
on the Worms.. After they had got what they
wanted, they alleged that they had paid n bonus
on more capital than they had used previous to the
increase, but Auditor Omani Fry did not coo it in
the same light. Ile said, if they intended to 'nuke
such a set-off, it ought to have been so stated In the
act inoroming the capital stook. Mr. O'Neill has
introduced a resolution relieving the bank. A
similar effort was made last winter, but it felled.
The amount the bank will gain and the State lose
by the operation is In the neighborhood of $5,000.

of duet and limo coming In through the broken
panes His first impreselon was, that the boiler
had burst, and be started for the door. When he
got out hecould Fee nothing at first for the aloud of
smoke, but Boon observed soon, women, and chit.

blood. Ife saw two women loaning from the base

went In under the ruins, beneath the projecting
roof. about two rods, on his hands and knees, and
found a man wedged between two looms, and a
large shaft lying on his beck. He saw that be oould
not bo got out without tools. He procured a
monkepwrenoh, and, by taking the loom apart,
extricated the man, who wenton hie way rejoicing
He proceeded to the next loft, and saw one Perkins
trying to get out, but was unable to do so, being
wedged between two plank frames laid acres' his
hips. Mr Melvin could not find an axe nearer
then at his home; but ran thither quickly, and on
returning released the man by cutting the plank.
lie continued working In the ruins, although gut

Mr. Burredge. of Engine Company No. 4. took
out a young girl from the ruins in a perfectly nude
state, yet, strings to say, with hardly a scratch on
her person. Ile wrapped her in his oyercoat ant
carried her home,
when, with groat presence of
mind, she besought him to return to the sufferer+ in
the ruins.
The city IS ringing with the praises of Miss Olive
Dridgo, who at the first alarm 'lid down the eleva
tor rope, and when she found she was safe, nobly
assisted In helping her wounded oomrades
faring at the City Hall.
Mr. J. H. Dana sae: The first intimation moat
of the operatives had was the swaving of the walla
of the whole building. Then the falling corn
mewed at one end, and the whole male gradually
settled ; the majority of the operatives reaming to
wards the safer end of the edifice. The welts fell
outward, but the roof fell in the shape of a V al
lowing an almost unobetrnoted passage on eeoh
side of the mill along the basement, through which
many miosped. This paesoge was open two or
three hours afterwards and many persons walked
through it. Ihe work of getting out the bodice
had been continued until the basement was being
elected, when the fire drove the rescuers away,
Mr. Adams, the overseer, being In the basement,
was overtaken by the falling fragments while at
tempting to escape, and was we:ged between the
timbers. A caw was passed to him through the
ruins, and he eased until the nails prevented his
going any further. An axe was thew handed to
him, end he got himself out not very seriously in-
jured.
A boy In the (eatery ma In the upper story when
the crash came. lie went to the bottom of the
twins with the rolling moss and walked ant unhurt.
A girl working In the upper room felt the•giving

also carried to the basement, her clothes nearly all
torn off, and yet she mmaped unhurt. The in•
Eames of there miraculous escapee aro numerous
and almost luctedrule. It seems wonderful that

The Mayor, Daniel Saunders. Jr., has attuned the
city to be canvassed thoroughly, and informs me
that the list of killed, wounded, and missing will be
complete to-morrow. The registers of the mills
are destroyed, and the only way of finding the ex
act number of the Inmates of to building, at the
time of the disaster. is by oollocting the receipts
which bane been distributed to the employba, and
finding the Wiling from them The Mayor sees no
reason tonight to alter the figures of his procla-
mation.
The statement that the mill was a notoriously
unsafe building is not generally oredited. I have
been informed by the Mayor, by some who saw the
buildings erected, and by some of the employks,
that they did not hoar until this amsideut that the
building was unsafe. At the time of its creation
the undermining of the penstock, or the small ea
nal that loads 'the water to the wheel, led to the
fear that the walls would fall. The damage was
repaired but no portion of the edifice fell.
The mills were turning out about two hundred
thousand dollars' worth of cotton goods per week,
and were insured for about $lOO,OOO. The opinion
is, that no insurance will be paid. Thera was
no extraordinary weight In the building. though
the machinery en the lower floor weighed six bun

If we could forget the °cession of our orowdod stret's
Goo should at once couolude that some great Goal

tenances of our citizens, and especially lhodie who
bon a been personally bereaved, keeps the dark re
ality constantly bittore our minds Every train
from every direction conies In laden to its utmost
capacity with living freight, and when we consider
that not less than onehundred and ay long passen
ger cars have run in here to-day, some realizing Idea
may be arrived at in regard to the number of cur
ViillOrt. But the railroads did not alone contribute
to swell our numbers. for every kind of vehicle was
brought into use. In canny of the surrounding
towns and cities not another horeo was t bo hired
The morning and afternoon were busily toed in re
moving the rubbish, after being sullaciently cooled,
in order, if pohelble, to got the bodies known to be
s.till under the ruins. Quite a number wore got out,
and, strange as it may appear, two persons were
taken out alive.
. .
Early In the morning a squad of canvassers was
organized, and the whole city laid out into !mall die
tricts, and a pretty thorough canvass entered Into,
men going front house to house, thereby ascertaining
in every family where persons were either wounded,
missing, or safe. The slimming up alone that one
hundred and sixty-two persons are missing. This
embraces all those known to have been killed, and
those of which no tidings bare been obtained. It
is admitted by those who have gone into the in
vestigation, that fifty.d.wo persona are yet immo
lated in the brick find mortar. Ono hundred and
thirty dead bodies have been removed to tho City
Hall, or been delivered to recognising friends.
