aud begging to be taken into the room
where the body Of her husband was lying.
OF course this request was refused, and
the poor woman became almost hysterical
in her grief, asserting the innocence Of her
dead husband in broken calculations, and
denouneing Leis in the widest and most
incoherent language. BY order Of the
coroner, she was removed, after being
somewhat paciied with the promise that
the body of her husband should be sent
to her home early in the afternoon. Ell
lar was a German, a small man, not more
than five feet six or seven inches 10 hight,
and about so years of age. He was a
tailor by trade. Leis is also a German.
He is about forty years of age, and has
the appearance Of being a respectable
man. He is saddler by trade.

EXPENSE TO INDIVIDUAL TAX PAYERS.
The amour each tax payer would be
required TO pay in view of the foregoing
estimate may lie readily ascertained by
dividing the amount of his grand list by
five. Thus the man who pays poll tax
simply, would be called upon for one-6ith
of 81 90 which forty cents. The tax
payer with list OF $40 would be re-
quired to pay fsa, dollars, a small sum
truly in consideration for the very great
advantages to DC had in return.
The experience of all who have had
occasion to wish shire towns as now located,
will at once assure them lhat the difference
in the expense of two hours drive to the
proposed shire, and a one or two days
journey to ana from present county seats
would more taan pay the tax that would
be imposed upon a majority of the indi-
vidual tax payers in the proposed comfy.

The Proposed New County.
NEW COUNTY FROM PARTS OF wINDHAM,
WINDSOR AND BENNINGTON COUNTIES.
REPORT OF COMMITTEE.


REPORT OF COMMITTEE.
Feb. l6, 1867.
The committee appointed by the Con-
vention held at Chester, in the county of
Windsor, on the 18th day of January,
1867, to take into consideration the subject
of forming new county from parts of
Windham, Windsor and Bennington coun-
ties, respectfully submit the following re-
port:
The State is divided into counties and
towns, the better TO enable the inhabitants
thereof to discharge their obligations TO
the State and to each other, and enjoy the
rights and privileges guaranteed them by
the State, constitution and laws.
1t is obvious therefore, that county lines
should be established if possible, so as not
to impose undue bardships upon any con-
siderable portion of the inhabitants.
Are county lines so established at pres
emit?
Your committee are unanimously of
the opinion that they are not
1t will be seen at once, by glance at
the Map of theState, that the towns of
Rockingham, Grafton, Windham, and
Londonderry, in the county of Windham,
and the towns of Andover, Baltimore,
Cavendish. Chester, Ludlow, Springfield,
Weathersfeld and Weston in Windsor
county, and the town of Landgrove in
Bennington county, are far removed from
their respective county seats that the in
habitants in the transaction of county bus
mess must pass through deep valleys and
over high hills, in short over roads which
are frequently quite impossible that they
are denied the facilities of railroad COM
munication, Ga mode of conveyance not
dreamt of, even, at the time of the crea-
ton of the counties above named) and
that they would be infinitely better con-
vened, if formed into county by them
selves.
1t will be seen by the following table
which gives the number of miles from
central point in each town to its respec-
tive county seat, also to central point in
the proposed county, that nearly two
thirds of the travel now required in the
transaction of county business would be
saved, TO say nothing of the very great
advantages gained by way of comparative
ly level roads

Greeley's American Conflict.

The second volume of Grecley's Am
erican Conflict is completed in book of
some 800 pages, and is illustrated with IA
large number of small portraits in groups
of those distinguished in both the military
and evils service, including very fine
portrait of Mr.. Greeley himself on steel,
in which most of the readers of the Con-
fiict" will feel quite as much or more in
terest than in any other. This work, as
we have before informed our readers, is
published by Q. D. Case and Co., Hart
ford, CT, is nicely and most substantially
bound, and certainly most valuable book
for the library of every American.
The present volume is necessarily de-
voted largely TO the military operations of
the war, but includes also much of the
civil and political affairs of the country
during the same period. Occasionally
some important evens may be considered
as having been too much condensed, but
we apprehend that great majority Of
readers will be quite satisfied as it is.
As whole we believe the work to be
the best history produced Of the war and
its cause, and the extraordinary demand
for it is sufficient evidence of this asser-
ton. 1t is evidently written conscien-
tiously and with care, and is as near
true rnd correct record of events during
the war as can be made during the present
generation. and herein lies its stronghold
on the popular feeling. Within circle
Of ten miles of this place over 600 copies
have been sold already, and up TO the
close of last year, the publishers had sold
122,327 copies of the first volume and
10000 of the second, and since the Fl rst
of January, or until from the heavy snow
storms, rendering the roads impossible,
they shipped to their agents 700 volumes
per day, and by the end of the present
year their sales will doubtless reach a
quarter of million copies Of each vol
ume. Mr.. Greeley has thus realized both
fame and fortune, and achieved a greater
success in shorter time than any other
living author.

COST OF COUNTY BUILDINGS.
A competent mechanic who has made
an estimate as TO the expense of necessary
and suitable county buildings, informs US
that they may be erected at cost not
to exceed twenty-five thousand dollars
(s25, 000)
This outlay would call for trihe over
33I per cent. of the grand list Of the
County, in case the expense was borne
equally by the several towns. But it is
thought, in fact we have assurances that
the town where county buildings may be
located will contribute say ten thousand
dollars, 100000 besides paying its due
proportion of the balance, which would
leave only fifteen thousand dollars to be
provided for by tax on the new County.

New Hampshire.

The annual election in New Hampshire
takes place one week from next Tuesday.
The prospects are very encouraging for
the Union party, land they need only to come
out in full numbers 10 sweep the State.
Gen. Hartman, the Union candidate for
Governor, having been challenged by his
Democratic opponent, to discussion of
the issues Of the day, promptly accepted
the same, and the two candidates are or
have been canvassing the State together,
until the Democratic candidate gave out
from i'll health, since which General Har-
riman has had the field TO himself, as he
doubtless will on the day of election.
The Union candidate is an effective
stump speaker, and contributed mach to
the Union cause while on the stump in the
great campaign of last year in Pennsyl-
vania and New York. The joint meet
ings in the present campaign in the old
granite State have evidently resulted in
much good to the Union cause. Gen.
Hartman most forcibly presents the liv-
ing issues of the day and clearly holds up
to view the dark record made by the dem
ocratic party during the war for the pre-
servation of the Union, while his opponent
though an adroit and plucky man, halts
and presents questions not pertinent to the
times. hoping thereby to cover up the
terrible guilt of his party, but like Ban
quo's ghost. Chicago platform that the war
was a failure and all, it is always in
view. AT every meeting Mr.. Sinclair the
democratic nominee, showers catalogue of
printed questions to the audience, many of
which are so foreign TO the question at
issue, that the listener is reminded of that
asked by the insurance agent, " Have you
ever had the measles, if so how many ?"
Union men of New Hampshire You
owe it to the cause which saved our coun-
try during the late rebellion, to give a
FULL VOTE on the 18th of March next.
That will render victory sure, and gladden.

A few weeks since, his wife presented his
claim to the office for the insurance, say
ing that he was drowned in Winnerberg,
Ill, and produced Sargent, under the
name of Allen, as sworn witness to her
husbands death. To complete the dis
guise, she had shipped to her residence in
Wisconsin, from railroad station in
Southern Illinois, coffin filed with a
log of wood, which was duly buried as
her husband. The cheat was discovered,
however, and parties have been arrested.

REBELLION IN KENTUcKY.-There are
a couple of counties in Kentucky, Boyle
& Marion, where Union men are constant
ly being murdered, lynched, their houses
burned, and other outrages committed on
their persons and property. They call
themselves regulators" and so extensive
has become their operations that Gov.
Bramlette was sent special message to
the Legislature to apprise them of the
fact. These two counties voted in 1864
as follows Mcclellan, 1851, Lincoln, !57

TRAGEDY AT PHILApELPHIA.-Th
father Of an outraged girl, took vengeance
into his own hands at a court room in
Philadelphia, on Wednesday, and the fol-
lowing are the particulars of the Shocking
affair -
George Ellar, the murdered man, was
arrested in April of last year for crime
committed on the peron OF Louisa Lei<,
aged eleven years, daughter of Thomas
Leis, and was held in bail to answer. He
was hailed and released, hen he abscon-
ded. About month ago gentleman
named George Rankin, who had bailed
Ellar, ascertsined that he was residing in
Harrisburgh and Lad him arrested and
put in prison in Philadelphia. Every day
for week prior TO Wednesday Elar had
been brought up to court and placed in
the prisoners dock, to be in readiness in
the event of his case being called for trial.
Leis. with his wife and daughter were also
in attendance daily. 1t was understood
that the case would be the first one cal ed
on Wednesday morning. AT ten o'clock
the prison van was driven, as usual, to the
Sixth street entrance of the courthouse,
and one or two prisoners had been taken
into the court room and placed in the dock,
and Officer David Banks followed with
Ellar in his charge. The court room was
crowded. Mrs. Leis and her daughter
occupied seats upon the south side of the
room. Leis was seated on the end of the
settee near the western entrance to the
court room. As Officer Banks entered
the door with his prisoner, Leis arose, and
drawing a revolver from an inside pocket
of his coat, he deliberately fired at Ellar.
The shot took effect in the region of the
heart, and the prisoner falling back into
the arms Of Officer Kritzer, uttered the
Explanations, "Oh! Oh! Ohw The
wounded man was once carried into the
office of the clerk of the court, where he
died in minute or two.
| Leis made no attempt to escape. He
was instantly seized. Officer Silverlhorne
wrested the pistol from bis hands. 1t was
six-barreled revolver, and five loa1s re-
manned in it. The murderer was imme-
diately placed before Judge Ludlow. who
was upon the bench at the time and he
expressed desire to make a full state
ment OF the affair; but the Judge refused
to listen 10 him. and after hearing evidence
of the fact Of the murder, he committed
the accused to answer. lie was imme-
diaiely removed to prison. Although
Leis made no formal detailed statement.
he ad nitted that he had committed the
deed to avenge the wrongs of his daugh-
ter, that he had done it deliberately, and
that he was prepared to take the conse-
quences. The suddenness of the event
caused a most intense excitement in the
crowded courtroom. The wife and
daughter Of Leis, although presant, could
not comprehend what had happened for
some time after the occurrence, and their
cries ard lamentations, when they learned
that the husband and father had imbrued
his hands in blood, were painful in the ex-
IRENE.
The wife of the murdered man was sit
ting upon chair, with her face buried in

SPRING ELECTIoNs.-Tne spring cleo
tions in the States begin in New Hamp-
shire one week from next Tuesday. and
are followed in April by Connecticut and
Rhode Island. There seems to be no
doubt that the Union party Will make a
clean sweep with The exception OF one or
two congressional districts in Connecticut
The last Congressional election in Con-
necticut was held on the day the news
Of the surrender of Lee was received, and
Of course the democratic party were in no
mood to come out on such an occasion, and
in consequence the Union party carried
the democratic districts, and as they Lave
now got over that shock they will of course
come out and the Union party cannot ex-
pect to carry them at tbs election. But
what significant commentary is this fact
upon the opposition party!
