The dam was finished Feb. s. 1852, and
the mill was ready for business in May

added two partners to the firm. Horace

Another Book in Connection With the

New York. May 27.-An important
book was published here during the
day, says Tribune dispatch from
London, in reference to Sir Charles
Warren's action at Spon Kop. The
author conceals his identity under the
pseudonym Of Defender" but it is I'M
dcrstood he expresses Sir Charles
Narren's own views with regard tothat
! famous battle. 1t will be remembered
that about a month AGO Sir Charles
warren publicly complained that the
government was s'ill withholding some
documents bearing upon his operations
and that those which were published.
II considered by themselves, gave a
totally Incorrect vi " of the matter
and one which reflected seriously on
his military reputation
The writer points out that the Beers
considered Spion Kop the key to the
situation in Natal and that had it been
held Ladysmith presumably would
have been won. His contention. there
tore, is that blame for the failure
should not be cast upon Sir Charles
warren. who ordered the situation to
bc taken. but on Colonel Thorneycroft
who abandoned It without sufficient
reason and without consulting him.
The writer says the gist of all in
formation is to make it clear that
spion kop was the key to the position.

one was more asionished at its un-
Authorized abandonment than General
Warren. except tn BGers themselves.
