sad Affair.
An ; event occurred at the jail on Wed.
nesday evening last, that pearly resulted
in loss of life. Elhanan Button is in con
finement on account of unsound mind. In
the absence of the Sheriff, Constables 0.
F. Fargo and C. J. Intipp;e went to the
jail to put the prisoners in the cells for
the night. Button seemed indisposed to
enter his cell, and when Whipple was .
about to put him in, he seized a bar of
iron, formerly used to bar a door, and
knocked Whipple down. An alarm be
tug given, - - Deputy Sheriff Newton A.
Lane entered the room and dreura revol-
Ner upon the fellow, and no doubt, would
have quieted him, but. for the intrusion of
his sister, Mrs. Alexander., who rushed in
front and dashed aside the pistol. The
invnesliate result was that, both herself
and brother were beaten to the floor by
the murderous weapon in the hands of
IJ e inad man.
Meantime, outsiders were attracted to
the scene, and found Mr. Fargo outside
the jail holdincr the door to prevent. But
ton's escape. r 'E. A. Fargo entered, ran
up stairs, "billy" in hand, awl advanced
upon tin ton, who then had Mrs. Alexan
der by the hair and was kicking her. But
ton ran to a second story hall window,
leaped out, and was at once secured by
the crowd that was collecting.
E Leh et* the three are seriously cut
and bruised - about the head and face, by
the blows dealt them with the bar of irony
hut at latest advices they are reported as
likely to recover.
The affair is tru'y a melancholy one,
and - .the results greatly to he regretted.
Annual Taxes.
The Commissioner of Internal Revenue
liss directed the Revenue Assessors to

of Income taxes for 1867; also taxes upon
Gold watches, &v., and of Special taxes

mencing May Ist.. It is intended that
these assessments shall be completed in

Fire and Loss of Life in Liberty,
A terrible disaster occurred in Liberty
township abotit-8 o'clock on Monday eve
ning D, involving the destruction
of the dwelling house of Ichabod, Al
len, and the burning to death of his only
daughter, a child only six years old.
Mr. Allen was absent, and Mrs. Allen
having been called upon to attend her
nearest neighbor, who was sick, had put
her children—this girl and a boy of 12
years—to bed, before leaving the house.
But within half an hour she was startled'
by the cries of her son, who gave the
alarm of fire. The boy was awakened by
.the burning of the bed clothes over him,
and befofe he could escape his shirt took
Sre and was torn off, leaving him no cloth.

his drawers, in bis flight to give the
alarm. When Mrs. Alen and a few
neighbors reached the house it was so ep.
wrapt in flames that nothing could be
done to save the child or any article of
property. As soon as the fire sufficiently
subsided, the remains of the child were
sought for, but the neck and limbs had

'charred remnant of the , body to be taken

good bargains. Men . who understand
their business aro not apt to take risks
without ti prospect of gain; and no man
can tell just whatit would cost to keep a

ly the roads would be likely to be bid off
at high rates, or let to irresponsible per

lead to grumbling and litigation, and un

Legacy and Succession Taxes.
The appended abstractof the Internal
Revenue laws and the latest rulings
theretinder,-on tliiet subj-ct, with sugges•
tions added, are .published as an impor
tant matter of public information.
The " legacy tax" is OR upon person
al property, whether the same he a lega
cy devised by will; or a distributive share
arising from a legal division of propery
among heirs at law.
The " succession tax," is urn real es
tate passing to an heir from an estate, or
by gift, during the life of the owner or
grantor. 1
LEGACY TAXES
1. The.estatesiof -all persons-who died
since Ju . y Ist, 1'862, are liab!e to the tit
acy tax, provided the whole amount divi
ded among a.l the heirs - exceeds $lOOO.
,2. But the share of the husband or wife
of the deceased ih exempt from this tax;
also the share ola minor child of the de

ceeds 81000, in arhieh mse the excess is
taxable; but this! exemption of the child
only applies to estates of those who died
on or after Aug ust Ist, 1866.
.3. if a legac y he devised to use of one
person for life, or a term of years, with
remainder to another, the tax is immedi
ately payable not only upon the present
value of the annuity, but. also upon the
present value of the remainder.
4. Legacies which are to remain in the
hands of adminiStrators or trustees until
a future period, and then to be paid over,
are taxable upon, their present value. But
in the estates ofthose dying on or after
August let, 1866, the legacy or interest
is not taxable until the legatee becomes
entitled to the possession or use, thereof.
5. Execntors,,administrators, &e.,
hav
ing charge.of personal property for dis
tribution, shall give notice of that fact in
writing to the assessor, or au assistant
assessor, within thirty days ; and before

who died prldr to June 30, 1864; but
which were left encumbered, (as with life
interest of a widow, dcz.,) are subject to
stiCceision tax, when encumbrance termi
nates after that date.
3. The widow of the deceased is ex-
empt from succession tax upon her share
or interest.
4. If real estate be sold, the funds aris
ing therefrom for distribution, are liable
to succession tax, and the administrator
or trustee shall give notice, make return,
and pay the tax as in case of legacy tax,
under penaltrof eBOO, costs, &c.
•
5.; If personal property be left in trust
to be invested in real estate, it is liable to
succession tax, to be paid by the person
having it in charge.
6. Real estate passing deed of gift, &c.,
(as from parent to child,) without valua
ble and adequate consideration for the
same, is liable at once to succession tax.
7. Where real estate falls, partial or
entire, to the use of one person for life or
a term of years, with remainder to anoth
er, the life tenant or temporary incum
bent iv taxable upon the present value of
the life or limited interest; and the re
mainder man is taxable on such interest
as he now receives, if any, and at termina
tion of encumbrance will be taxable upon
such interest. as is then received.
8. 'Ha remainder man or successor in
expectancy, purchases . the interest of a
life tenant. or temporary incumbent, he
becomes immediately liable to the suc
cession tax, as fully as if the life tenant or
incumbent had died.
9. In case the husband dies leaving
lands,: the widow's thirds or interests
are not by will set off by metes and
bounds, the heirs are liable to tax upon
the entire value of the estate, less the
present value oilier use; and at termina
tion.e(berinterests will be further liable
to the extent of tax upon the increase of
beneficial interest.
10. But if a widow's third or share is
by will set apart by metes and bounds,
the heir 4 are liable to tax upon the two
thirds or balance, and at the death of
widow, or termination of her interest,
will be liable to tax upon her portion.
t.l.4‘atetof succession taxes, from 1 to
6 per cent.; which tax is a first lieu upon
the laud for live sears, unless sooner paid.
Purchasers of real estate should see
that a succession tax is not due upon the
land, as the title would be defec:ivc in
case of nop payment,
12. Persons liable to succession tax,
shall, within thirty days from the time of
becoming entitlettto possession of the re
al estate or the profits thereof, give no
tice of that fact to the assessor, make re
turn, and pay the tax, or be liable to pen
alty, expcni-e-a, &c. •
13. Mere neglect on the pnrt of suc
cessors to report themselves fur assess
ment within 3U days, subjects them to
penalty, even if such neglect is caused by
ignorance or the law; and the assessor
may m a ke return for them with penalty.
11tit it persons report themselves after
that petiod, the assessor may accept the
return without penalty if satisfied that
there ha s b ee n L o delay after ascertaining
their liability.
Persons whose attention has been call
ed to their liability have no defence
against penalty should they neglect to
make return.
Many persons in this Dist) iet who be
came liable to thregoing taxe,4 In past
years have neglected to make rett).rn; and
all who may be liable would do will to
report thein:elves at an early day for As
sessment without waiting fur their case to
be investigated and the return demanded.

The true value of Machinery applied to Watchmak
ing is sot that by its use Watches are made rapidly,
but that they are made correctly. Very few people
know why a Waltham Watch should be superior to any
other. In the first place, at Waltham the Watch le re
garded as only a machine, on mechanical principles.—
if the watches are good, Ills because the machinery is
good. Of course there moat be no defect In the princi
ple or plan of the movement—no mistake in the sizes
or shapes of the pieces of which it is composed—noth
ing wanting In their properties, and no error in their
positions. These points 'once thoroughly settled, it
rests wholly with the machinery, constructed with in
finite diversity carom and function expressly for the
purpose, to produce the finished pieces. By Means of
multiplying guagea and microscopes, tests and nspec •
t ion for the detection of wear in the cutting tools, and
for faults or flaws In steel or stone are made to accom
pany the work in every stage from beginning to end.—
As a necessary result, the watch goes together a perfect
machine. Every part is found to fit properly in its
place. Every pin may be pushed till it pinches, and ev•
cry screw turned home. Instead of a sluggish and fee
hie action, the balance, even under the pressure of the
lightest mainspring, vibrated with a wide and free mo ,
tion, and the beat has the clear ringing sound always
eharacterietic of the Waltham IV etch. The machine is
a timekeeper Irom the start.
This system is unknown in foreign countries, and is
entirely original with the Waltham Company. The
Company claim that by tt they produce watches that
cannot he equall d for every quality which makes a
watch valuable. Simple in plan and correct in princi•
ple, the movement is not only beautifully finished, rub•
somas!, accurate and cheap, hut is uniform in the mi
nutest details, not easily namaged, and when repaired
always as good as new. There are different grades of
finish in the different varieties of watches made by the
Waltham Company, as there are different sfzee anti
shapes to suit all tastes and means ; but every Watch
that hears the genuine trademark of "Wstruam" is
guar , ntied to be a good one, and nobody neco be
afraid to buy it.
