"A long standing feud between the
families OF Selba Plumley and Isaac II.
Balch Of Shrewsbury, in Rutland conn
ty, resulted fatally Saturday afternoon.
Plumley had impounded two of Balch's
horses for depredations in his corn-feld.
and the appraisal Of damages was left
to outside parties who we're on the
spot for the purpose of deciding the
matter Plumley, with two sons, Hor-
ace r. and Frederick, and a son-in law,
named George | utterly were present,
as was also Balch with two hired men
and John Gilman, n neighbor. Both
parties were armed. John Gilman, Jr.,
respectable and peaceable citizen OF
Little Falls, n. Y, was on the ground
as n spectator, unarmed. He was or
dered from the field by Horace r.
Plumley, who pointed gun at him,
which Gilman seized by the barrel aud
turned aside; but being attacked in
the rear by Frederick Plumley, with a
pitchfork, he turned to meet this new
assailant, and was shot and instantly
killed by Horace r. Plumley, receiving
four buck shot through the heart -
shots we're then exchanged by the par
ties, Horace r. receiving a shot in the
thigh and another throug the scalp, and
Gilman senior one through the leg.
Hostihties closed by the opportune
Of Sheriff Sanderson, who
arrested Seiba and II. r. Plumley,
George Butterfly, Abraham Vain and
Quarter, the two latter be-
ing workmen for Balch, and committed
them to Rutland jail. Fred Plumley
win be delivered up by his friends to-

rapid deduction OF taxation TO answer
the demands Of industry, and the
searching retrenehmeut thus far effect

promised for the next fiscal year are
all arguments for the continuance Of
the administration which has done 40
much. More might unquestionab!y
have been done. and earlier, and bet

suit Of democratic rule. The republi-

Only one thing now is needed that
the expenditures Of the coming year
shall be rigidly held down to the re.
daced estimates, which have been made

UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD.
Tho earnings of the Union Pacific Railroad for
the last six months are about two millions Of dol
mrs, and the expenses almost one and half mill
ions. The company having completed IT. track
to within three hundred miles Of Salt Lake CITY
can commence building from that point casterly
aud by present Appearances the Union Will
build twothlrtls Of the route TO California, as the
Central Pacific fnds it moro difficult to push
track laying, and cannot well start three humid
red miles IN advance in the wilderness, and build
westerly. Whichever company completes the
road gets the government grant aud bonds, this
rivalry Is likely 10 cause The completion Of The
whole route soonsr than it Was some time since
Thought possible to do.

AZ the close Of the war taxation was
all but universal; land, agricultural
produce, manufactured lumber,
breadstuffs, aud few other forms Of
property and produce only, being ex-
cepted. At the present time, Of all
manufactured articles or products OF
industry, the following only are sub
jet to specific or direct taxation: Dis
titled spirits, fermented liquors, manu-
featured tobacco, gas, matches and
playing cards. Perfumery, cosmetics,
patent medicines, and few other man
ufactured articles, ara subjected TO a
stamp tax in proportion to their selling
price, since July, 1865; furthermore,
the additional tax Of five per cent on
all incomes has been increased from
5000 TO $1,000 The taxation formerly
imposed on the gross receipts accruing
from the transportation OF merchan-
disc has also been entirely removed
Coincident with the above reduction Of
taxation, or from August 81, 1861, to
June 80, 1865, the aggregate debt, de-
Quoting cash in treasury, exhibits re-
duction of $25O,OO0,00O. On this
abatement Of the debt the reduction Of
the interest at six per cent would be
SIS, 900 per annum.
