SHOOTING ArFRAy AT CAsTLEToN. On
Saturday afternoon last an affair occurred
at Castleton Corners, mile and a half
from the village Of Castleton, which re-.
suited in some bloodshed and caused con.
siderable excitement in that usually
peaceful locality. Lemuel Streeter. q
mouder in the employ of Graves Il
Odell, at Hydevil.e, and who resides at
the Corners, was shot with pistol in
the hands of Henry Hudson, also q
moulder who has formerly worked for f.
A. Barrows, ct Castleton. The ball en-.
tered just below the lief. NIPPLE glanced
on rib and lodged in the shoulder. The
cause Of the shooting seems to have been
jealousy on the part Of Streetcr from the
intimacy of Hudson with Streeter's wife.
Finding Hudson engaged in conversation
with his wife on Saturday afternoon,
Streeter attacked Hudson, and in the
melee the latter drew pistol and shot
his nssailant as above mentioned Street.
er, although badly wounded, was not
disabled so but what he started i'm.
mediately for an officer, Hudson staid
at Streetcr's house, where the affair took
place, until the arrival Of Strcetcr with
Deputy Sheriff T. p. Smith, of Castleton
when he gave himself up and wal
brought by that officer to Rutland, OF
Saturday evening, and lodged in the
county jail.-GloJe.

THE CHICAGO Tribune, under the gui-

its old position at the head of the Repub.
lican journals. and it will do battle in the
future for the true principles of free gov
ernment, and for purified and honest
administration of National, State, and
Municipal affairs.
While giving to the Republican party q cordia
and honest support in all wise measures and to- al
1t candidates, The TRIBUNE will never be the or.
gan of any individual, faction, ism nor will /,
cease to combat oppressive monopolies or fail TO
expose and denounce all corrupt schemes foIp plum
dering the Treasury of the people. II will wage
perpetual war on lobbyrings who prowl around the
halls OF legislation in quest of spoil.

AZ Agriculture is the National wealth. whatever

prosperity of the whole country. The cost of
transportation of Western farm products to for
eign Market consumes half the selling value, and
the high duties levied 10 subsidize special interests
