M.?Last night waa a night of Mm most unparalleled excitement, and but few of the ekineos of the village slept la the least. All were busy working at the ruins?man, worn on and ehildrea doing their utmost to rescue the, dead bodies of their friends from the ruins, or rclievfhmthe sufferings of those who were buried beneath the pile ol rubbislw , The Pembertoa Mill, where the aceident oocurMiT in situated no thu riffht shlo of Ciirtnl street near the lower end, on the opposite aid* of the c?nnI. It wm five storiea hi#", 2So feet long by 70 feet wide, with an L 45 feet s?jnare on the west aide. It ran 2,700 spindles, and V60 operatives were employed. It wna not very thoroughly. constructed, according to the statements of builders, architects and others, who any that they had no confidence in the durability of the tructnre. A tall column on tlio south able, and a similar one opposite and near the canal, with a amall portion of one end of the building, alone were standing, nnd trembling, as if about to tail. Engines were about the ruins, throwing watT Into the smoking and burning rubbish, and thousands of people were crowding the vicinity. Hie osnnl had been bridged with rafts of boards thrown on the cracking ice. Two long lines of boarding-lionses, now so sntldenly deserted, were situated on the opposite side of the canal, in front of the mill, and the op erntives were obliged to cross a narrow bridge in going and returning from work. The opera were of Rcotch origin, and were regarded a* the most skillful operative* in T-awrence. The news of the disaster went like an electric bock over the city, and people commenced running to the spot. The Washington Mills, near by, were entirely deserted, and others in the city poured forth in exeited throngs. Those on the street rushed to the place, stores were deserted, houses deft unprotected, and almost the whole population gathered around the spot. Those who could work plied hands and tools briskly, all with heavy hearts, and spirit" saddened by the frantic cries of some for help, the groans of the dying, and the disfigured corpses of those who had been killed. As the bodies of the wounded, dead and dying were taken out, those which were recognised were delivered to their friends, and such as were not recognised were taken to the City Hall. In this way as many as could find room upon the pile labored unremittingly for bourn About 9 o'clock, a fire broke out from the engine room at the south end of the building and soon -spread over the whole ruin. The scene now was heat t-aickening, according to every description. Conscious of the tortuous death which awaited the unfortunates whose sufferings had not been ended by death, the bystanders were unable to afford them any relief. A few more bodice were got out, but only a lew, jitter iiie names Jiaa oegun 10 rage. xne groans of Uie sufferers caused indescribable an- . gtiish in tbc hearts of all around, nnd to them were added the frantic appeals of some who lcnaw they were gazing on the funeral pile of < relatives aud friends, to whom no succor was j possible. An ulamn was sounded, the firemen promptly manned the machines, and made every effort to extinguish the flamca But the copious streams of water dashing over the hidden ruins could only prolong the miseries of those beneath.? Though confined within solid brick walls, assistance had nearly reached them when Uie fire broke out. In one case one of those persons was helped to a glass of water by parties who were endeavoring to extricate them. She said that near her, aepernted only by single beams, were six men uninjured. Alas! they were all consumed in the tl mice, which spread with great rapidity. How , ri.anv were thus burned there is no data for esii i-.ri'ig. A person who was at the fire from its In -inning, became cognizant-of three parties of individuals?from four to six in number?who lb us perished. The vicinity of the mills looks very mnch like a vast charnel house, as litters, having on them corpses, are constantly passing through the streets in that nnarter. The liall of the city government building was vised as a hospital for such of the wounded as it was deemed necessary to convey hither. Mattresses lined the hall on three of its sides, and a I -a.--a._l 1 .1 ..J 1 11... ? .1 oil mem were wreicneu niamgicu uuoira, nuu others not dangerously injured, but suffering from painful wounds. Kind-hearted pl^-sicians ministered nnceasingly to them, and some, whom years of practice might have excused from sensitiveness to Lite suffering of others, performed their offices with tearful eyes, compassionate countenances, and all the gentleness of sympathetic natores. On oue pallet lay a little girl, with a beauti ful pale countenance, knit with the suffering she could not conceal, yet unmurmuring. She was watched over by a weeping friend, apparently Iter father, and my heart was rejoiced at the announcement by the physician that she was not dangerously, though severely injured. Still further, on a pallet, was a young woman groaning with pain, from several broken bones, interna] injuries and a bruised head. Half a dozen disconsolate friends were about her weeping, for the physician had said she innst die. X.*?r the platform was a poor German, suffering excruciating pain. He could not talk English, and no one from the H fatherland " had found him. His case, too, it is feared, is bopeJe?\ On the opposite side are three girls?all young nnd beautiful, but with the cold hand of death already on them. Many others were there who alone would excite the sympathy of those alio saw them. A large room on the corner of the hall had been set. apart as a depository for the bodies of the dead, and this was literally covered with mangled corpses. Young men, and those past the meridian of life, women and young girls, lay there? a ghastly sight to behold. They lay as they had been recovered from the I ruins?some covered with blood, and other* com- I pletely disfigured. Another room below aleocontained a number of I todies, and others were removed an their frienda claimed them. A committee of twenty-five are canvassing the boar-ling houses of the eity to ascertain the num Iter and the names of aii who are misting. s',:. the In test account* dead bo-lies were continually tal(eii from the smoking ruins.

Another wuman aiirieKca out pueousiy innt the fires was burning her hair, but the flame* so n after silenced her. It has already been stated previously, tliat one man out his throat lest he should be burned i.live. Mr. Hranch told his friends who were digging for him, that ho should resort to the same means to escape the tortures of the fire. He was persuaded to desist, and fortunately waa rescued.
