A HORRIBLE AFFAIR.-On Tuesday even
ing last our town was the scene Of one Of the
most horrible affairs that daiken the records
Of crime. Charles J. Foster, the Assessor
OF Taxes Of this county, was taking down the
taxable property of Nm. X. Richardson, a
young mechanic of this county, native we
believe of Dayton, Ohio. We CHANGED TO
be present at the time. After completing
the list, and going through the regular. rou-
tine Of interrogations which the law makes
ii the duty Of the assessor TO propouud TO all
taxpayers, Mr.. Foster informed Mr. Rich
ardson that 1t was necessary for him to swear
or affirm TO the list be had rendered in Mr.
X, who seemed very pefulent and somewhat
agitated through fbe whole lime. premptorily
declined swearing. Mr.. Foster told him he
must swear or be doubly taxed; that the law
did not leave it discretionary with him; he
was obliged 10 swear all taxpayers. The lie
was given, simultaneous rush was made.
and quick as thought Richardson gave the
deadly blow. Foster made pass at him af
ter being wounded. We learn there was an
old grudge between them-or at least OIL the
part OF Richardson. Mr.. Foster WAS one Of
Ourhest citizens, and an upright and Impair
tial officer. He was stabbed in the left lung
Immediately over the heart, and lived bur
six minutes after receiving the wound. Rioh
