DAsrARDIY ATTEMPT TO DESTROY TIE GAS

DAsTARDLY ATTEMPT TO DESTROY TIE GAS
RKs.-AtoIt l O'Clock yesterday morn
ing one OF the most cowardly attempts at
destruction of property occurred which it
has ever been our lot to chronicle. An attempt
was then made to fire the governor of the
Portsmouth gas-works, which, had it sue
ceeded, would have enveloped large amount
of adjacent property in flames. Happily,
however, the first light was discovered by
the night-watchmap, and he, with the EN-
ployeS, succeeded in extinguishing the flimes.
At the moment the fire was discovered a
man ran out from the premises and down
the lane, and the watchman discharged bis
pistol at the retreating figure, seemingly
without effect. Had the goVeruor-house
been burned The apparatus governing the
supply of gas to the city would have been
destroyed, and the fire communicating to the
gas confined in the holders, the result would
have been appalling. The entire gas-Works
and the village of Lincolnville would have
been blown up.-Norfolk Virg,nian.
