WINDSOR, Vermont, Dec. 3l.-Our usually
quiet village was thrown into great excite
mcnt, last night, by murdcrous ailray in
our streets, the result of which must almost
necessarily prove fatal. The circumstances
were in brief, that man named Henry Bar
rett was attacked by roughs, badly pounded,
and stabbed in the back no less than seven
times by some one who has not yet been
identified. Barrett's injuries are 50 severe
that death is almost certain. Active Steps
are being taken to discover and arrest the
perpetrator of the crime.
Arrest of the Supposed Guilty Parties.
At last accounts Henry Barrel was still
alive, but no hopes of his recovery were en-
tcrtained. He il n farm laborer and lived
about three miles from Windsor village. 1t
seems that On former occasions he had quar-
rels with certain young roughs and worsted
them. They resolved to be avenged, and
on the night in question six of them ''laid
for" him. lie was discovered in one of the
village stores, and was induced to come out
under some prctext but no sooner did he step
OUT INTO tnc uafkncsS OF nlglt before the
roushs fell upon him in force, and some one
or more of the assailans stabbed the unfortu-
nate man seven times in the back with a
knife. Not content with this the gang seized
Barrel and plunged him through II basement
window, where he lay wclterlng in his blood
William and Frank Gallagher, John Brown,
Frank and John McClinton, Edward Gairucy
and George Fields have been arrested as be-
ing the guilty parties and are now in the
States prison for safe keeping 1t is thought
that Frank Gallagher is the man who stabbed
Barrel. The cuts extended the whole length
of Barrels body, one of them penetrating his
right lung, and were made by knife large
than an ordinary jack knife.
The hearing before the magistrate in the
case of the State VS.. Gallagher and Others,
who, ii is claimed, committed an assault on
Henry Barrel Saturday evening, was adjourn
ed on Tuesday afternoon to Thursday, the
l1th inst, to await the result Of the injuries
received by Barrel. lie is badly cut and lies
in a very critical condition.
1t now looks as though Barrel, instead of
being attacked by roushs, was the aggrcssOr,
and commenced the row in which he was in

The House went into committee on the
army appropriation bill, the pending amend
ment being that offered by Representative
Browne for the gradual abolition Of the nav
corps If the army, 1t was adopted. The
proyiso that all retired officers shall receive
the pay now provided by law as of the rank
they actually held in the army at the date Of
retirement, was stricken out by viva voce
vote.
Repr, sentative Hewitt Of New York
called attention to the fact that in various
items lhcreiwas reduction of appropriations
and inquired whether the reduction was for
the purpose Of making good showing or
whether the amounts appropriated were
sufficient for the needs of the service. lie
took no stock in trying to make record OF
economy which would necessitate dciicien-
cy in the appropriation.
Representative Butterworlh replied that
the appropriations were sufficient. lie assured
Mr.. Hewitt that the Republican party

the establishment in all its various departments;
of the men engaged.in its manufacture, the amount

scribcrs real favor in Offering it as premium.
About Two hundred and seventy-hve hnGds are

the Waterbury to stand quite on par with watch
that costs from $50 to $780, we are nevertheless
