The editor of the Boyer Valley
Record, II. Ii. Crowell, killed man
by the name of Allen last week at
Dcnison, Iowa, by striking him with
a slung shot Crowell obtained some
liquor at the Bluffs, which unaccount
ably disappeared through some other
channel than his throat, which he at
tributed to Allen. He then procured
some more, drank it, and while intox-
icated struck Allen with slung shot,
from the effect of which he died.
Crowell is represented to be an intel
ligcnt, industrious, but Incorporate
young man.

The New TAMFF.-Thc new tariff
bill is simply war measure, and DIFF
fcrs from the preceding tariff chiefly
by taking tea and coffee from the free
list, and increasing largely the duties
on luxurics, such as distilled liquors,
wines, sugars and cigars. The duty
on salt is largely increased. Black
teas are to be taxed at the rate OF
ten cents per pound, green fifteen,
and coffee five cents. The duties on
wines and distilled liquors are in.
creased fifty per cent. on cigars,
very nearly in the same ratio. On
sugars the duties are increased from
three-fourths of q cent to two and q
half cents per pound on raw, to three
cents on clayed, and four cents on
white and refined. Molasses pays
six cents per gallon instead of two.
White lead 1925 per 100 pounds in
stead of $l,25. There is some in
crease on other unimportant articles,
but not enough to add materially to
the revenue. In textile fabrics there
is little change. A slight reduction
is made on iron and steel-thc duty
on merchant bar being reduced from
SIS to $l4 per ton; on railroad iron
from $l2 to $40 per ton. AS the pre-
vious duties were nearly if not quite
prohibitory, this reduction is for III,
benefit of the rereaue. With the excep
tons named, the Morrill, Tariff re,
mains substantially untouched.

In Once Week we find this glowing
tribute to the patriotism and self sacrifice
Of the North
Open, manifest, indisputable above eve
rything, is the noble spirit Of the people at
large, now that the first burst Of enthusiasm
would have been over II it had not been
genuine, and at the moment when the
whole Significance Of the war is disclosed.
They know now what loss or ruin Of for
tune most of them must incur; they have
felt something Of the toll and priVation of
military service; and the amount Of need
less, Wanton, exssperating slaughter might
we'll sicken the general heart Yet there
is no finching. The Presidents call for
400 900 men is met as eagerly as his prior
call for 10000. When he asks whether
they will raise es0, ,0OO 600 for the national
service, they say so yes" IS If he asked
for $4,000. When the old family tombs Of

been her husband next week marches past

her room fol hours, when she is weary Of
making lint, and finds her Bible brings the
tears too fast. Except very few towards
traitors, and sordid trimmeFs, who try to
raise q call for compromise, there seems to
be no detection from this splendor Of pstri-
otism. This is the broadest plainest
veiehsiest, and most brillisnt fact Of al

The line of the Alexandria and LoudOn
road is dotted with rebel camps. AtLees-
burg there are 5000 infantry and six can
non. AZ point FIVE or six miles below are
5000 infantry and six cannon. Still fur
ther on, four miles beyond, are $500 in
fantry. There are also 1000 cavalry in
LOndon Co.
The Potomac, however, remains too high

saddles the water comes.
II appears that the Withdrawal Of the
rebels from Fairfax Court House was a reg
ular stampede. Two scouting parties Of
the enemy mistook each other for national
troops, attacked each other sharply, fought
and rapidly fed after few rounds, carry
ing the news that Mcclellan and all his
army were in pursuit.
The consequence of the intelligence was
hssty flight by the rebels who dropped
their sick along the road.
