The Burning ofCouIlty Auditor
Van Tassel'S House.


On Tuesday morning last, about .
o'clock, the alarm Of fire was given. AS
journalists it is our duty to publish
things as they occnr, and to note the ex-
prcssions of Il cur dog, provilcl his
cries have any significance whatever,
The miserable and pusillunimous conluct
Of Jew skunks on that occasion de-
nands this passing notice, and will be
approved, after Il while, by the SOBER
Judgement of tho people. We s'ia!
make Il fair statement, an / that, too
with 4 conviction that w. hlv. Truth to
plead as our justification. The rag
mufIincd, boly-llccd and rotten brcathc,l
portion Of our community may think
that We sAould .hpll our pcac,. Ths
gentlemen of the Town do not u gree
with this thought. Cowirls an lha
NANCY associates may rel ice over the
misfortune OF poor man IN his fami.
:ly, but we believe that the expressed
sympathy Of the real men OF Orange
burg has SO far robbed oar hydroph, ,b.
ours Of their rabies, and their attempts
to bite, us to give more Of Il haus sh,y
indifference to the parties inj urcd than
any feeling Of regret. What we mean
by this is, that the ungenerous expres.
sions or uttcrlnces Of ours, fall haru-
less at the feet of those whose loss so
many rejoice over. AS we said, about
2 o'clock the fire was discovered MIR.
Van Tassel, us our readers have already
been informed, is in New York on
visit, and no one was in the house but
his wife, her mother and little sister.
They first discovered that there was
fire by peculiar scent, or thick atmos.
phere, peryadins the room in which the,
slept, and which got SO s.rons, Within il
few minutes, as to result al uoi. in ren.
dcrins all in the room perfectly stupid
Mrs. Van Tassel, her mother AMI little
sister, had to jump from tie win low in
order 10 save their lives. They wcro so
stupid that thoy could not have got
away from the flames had friends Mt as.
sisted them ut once to the house of Mr.
Jouos. Two opinions prevail One
that the inmates were drugged, the
house robbed and then set on fire; the
other, that the fire was the work of
political enemies Of Mr.. Van Tasscl.
Certain it's, that his loss is pretty heavy,
for the rooms were elegantly furnish cd
aud Mrs, Van Tassel's wardrobe alone
was worth more than fifteen hundred
dollars, and the furniture, &C., more
than two thousand dollars. So tho
statement of n contemporary is little
wrong. Besides all this, there was
something ovor three hundred dollars,
that Mrs. Van Tasse had iu her room,
Tossed. Her mother, who was ou visit
70 her during the absence of MIR. Van
Tasscl, hud almost her entire wardrobe
consumed that too, with some relies Of

Hon. Henry W. Wilson, Cixil Engineer and mem.
Der OF the Legislative Visiting Committee, con-
demned the dam in every respect. The contractors
had not adhered to the specifications and the spe-
citations themselves were weak. The slope was
too steep, the mucky soil was not cleared away, the
wall was not laid on hard pan, the creating was
good for nothing, the banks were badly built and
the repairs made were worse than none ct all
The wonder was that the wall stood so long as it
did. He had inspected the Goshen reservoirs, be-
one was safe II the water Is kept below the old
level OF the top ana unsafe II 1t is raised to the
height OF the newly built embankment. The new
or upper reservoirs needed to have certain meas
ures taken, which he had pointed out to make
them safe.
Several other witnesses were called, among
them Thomas N. Hayden, whose testimony was
much like his brothers. Mr.. Dimock, Mr.. Clement
and Mr.. Spellman. mill owners, all contradicted
certain statements OF the contractors to the effect
that the latter had warned them that the dam
would leak II they built at a certain point on
gravel and that they 1.-THE mill owners) had never
theless directed 1t to be built on gravel to
pense; this was not true; they had trusted the
contractors entirely.

give the stenographer time to write out his notes
OF the testimony.
