MESSAGE OF GOV. II. X. SCOTT.

DELIVERED NOVEMBER 80, 1868.
FeVom- Citzens Of lie Senate and Of tie
House Of Representatives:
In accordance with the rcouisitions
of the Constitution to lay before YOU
information of the condition of the
State, and recommend to YOUR consi-
deration such measures as NAV be
deemed necessary or expedient, I
shall proceed to perform that duty as
briefly as circumstances will permit.
postponing to future opportunity
! the discussion of all questions not
directly connected with the admins
tration of the Government. The in
terval since your last session has been
so brief, and the details connected
with the organization of the~new
branches of public service have occu-
pied so much time and attention, as
to leave but little opportunity for the
consideration of matters of n more
general character, many of which
were fully discussed in my message
at the special session.
The Act providing for the assess
ment and taxation of property has re-
ceived considerable attention, and the
organization of the Auditors Depart
ment has progressed as rapidly as
circumstances would permit. Great
care and caution have been necessary
in selecting the officers to whom will
be entrusted the execution of the tax
law; but it is believed that the ap-
pointments made, and to be made,
will give efficiency and success to this
important department of the Govern
ment. 1 shall lay before you, at the
earliest practicable period, tho COM
plete assessment of the property of
the State, which will afford the ne
ccssary basis for taxation.
The estimate Of the Auditor for the
contingent fund may appear large,
but it should be remembered that the
Assessors books, blanks and other
forms for the whole State, are to be
provided out of this fund, not only
for the assessment which is about to
be made, but for that which will
have to be made previous to the con-
vening OF the General Assembly in
1869.
The organization of the Auditors
Department. and the successful com
pletion of the first assessment of pro
pcrty, will involve Il large amouut of
labor and some unnsual expenditures,
but rs the result aimed Mt is most
desirable, / recommend that the Lee
gislaturc will afford every facility for
the accomplishment of the object.
BY reference to the report Of the
ComptrollerG General, it will be seen
that the entire bonded debt of the
State is 50, 1O7, 306 ~, consisting as
follows:
Three per cent. stock,
payable ut the plea

t. BLOODY RENCoUNTER.-From the
officers of the Morning Star we learn
that a bloody rencounter took place
on Saturday at Wolf Creek, in Ken
lucky. 1t appears that a temperance
meeting was being held at that place.
Two men, named Cy. Cameron and
his half brother, Dan. Defour, who,
when drunk, were noted for their
o~yerbearing disposition aud rowdyish
propensities. picked a quarrel with
one VIM. Smith, whose character was
quite the opposite. After applying
the most opprobrious epithets to
Smith, Cameron attempted to draw a
revolver from his boot, when Smith
hastily drew his revolver and shot
Cameron through the breast. De-
four, rushing to the attack, was shot
in the back of his head. 1t was be-
lieved that both wounds would prove
fatal. Smith was not arrested, the
shooting being generally deemed jus
ti6able.
