to accept a position in his old occupation
as pilot. The lack ol appropriations to
carry on tho snug boat work drives him
to seek other employment, In the mean

man or set of men will be found fudlsh
enough to squander as much moiry in
decorating a cabin. We sympathize
with Captain Thorwegin iu his loss.
We are glad to hear that both the Re
public and arondelet were well in
sured. The watchman ol the Republic gives
the following account of the tire :
About hall-past eleven o'clock I was
walking along tho surhouad si-Io and on
the lorward ldo of the lower deck, when
1 smelt smoke on the boat and not know
ing ot any llro being anywhere In the
cabins or utate-roouis, I ran up-stairs on
the eabin-deck and down the s.tarlioard
Mile, and when two-thirds down towards
die Ktern I saw smoke rolling out he
hwcii tho pa-ieU and Mooring of the
state riioui called the bridal chamber,
I immediately saw llames bursting
outoi tlie whole side of the state-room,
run to the bell to sound the alarm, but
found that there was no bell rope to
pull by, I ran to the side of the boat and
shouted "Fire!'1 tothe watchman of the
( arondelet, who sounds tlie river alai iii
Iroiu that boat; ami some one ran to the
liredeparun'iit signal box on tho corner
ol main and Lesperanee i.treoU and
called the engines. In less than ten
minutes the whole cabin, texiis and stern
was in one mass ot llames, roaring as
lurlousas hell, and I had to leave the
boat, as it wasroastlug me. 1 could not
getlnsidi! the cabin to savo my trunk
of clothes, and the engineer, Mr.
Hill and the carpenter, whom I only
know by the name of George, all had
their clothes burned up. I tto not know
ol any lire being on the boat to-diiy ex
cept what was under the nigger boilers,
and this was nil out before seven o'clock
this evening. I have no knowledge of
any on being In the bridal chamber to
night, nud cannot give any reason for
the origin ot the lire. The boat was just
olfthc docks yesterday, and was to start
on October i'h for a trip South, but she
can't go now,
( apt. W. II. Thorwegan was the sole
nwer ol the Republic. Tho damage done
to tin; boat is estimated at $200,000, and
it is believed she was Insured tor that
amount. She was valued at $:i.10,0(!0.
