Henry War ! Beecher, who is eon
neeied with tiie family. The young
couple wont to kccpiiur house, hut
their happiness hardly outlived the
honeymoon.
Johnson, although
dissipated liahiis, had
able temper, and his
made disagreeably aware of the fact.
>he bore Iter sufferings in silence tin
a long time, lit.t a few weeks since
complained to her atlier, Mr. li.
Heneoiet. Mr. Benedict spoke to
Johnson’s father about the matter,
but he was unable apparently to con-
trol his son. The ill-treatment eon-
tniiitur, Mrs. Johnson, Jr., about a
week ago, during the absence ot her
husband, took her child and its nurse {
to her father’s house. On Tuesday j
she sent Word to her fatl.er-in-law j
that she wauled to see him, pre*uma-1
lily with the purpose of explaining >
w hy she had left her husband. J
Yesterday, about two o’clock,
w hile Mr. Benedict’s family were at
dinner, the door hell was rung. The
servant who answered the ring said
that Mr. Johns >ii wanted to see Mrs
Johnson. Mother and daughter en
tered the f out parlor, the latter car*
rvinglur in'ant child in her arms
Johnson looked very p ile. He in
formed his inollierMiidaw that h
wished l<» see his wife alone. Mrs. j
Johnson requested her mother to i
leave, saving, “ l’erh.ips Charlie has
something private to say to me.” As j
soon as Mrs. Benedict lett the room J
»— Johnson demanded liis child. His j
wiie s lid slic could not give up the I
child. They were standing at the j
folding door that divides the front ;
and hack parlors, t!*- husband being
lu-xt to tile hack room. He turned
quickly around,: nd putting his hand
in his j locket said: “Til shoot you.”
Mrs. Johnson screamed, and clasping
her baby closely ran from the front
room, and, passing through the hall,
attempted to go down the basement
Mails. She had gone lull a step or
two down the stairs when her •hus
band erne, ged from a door leading

I la-lily carrying her into the base-
mini, with the assistance of her
mother, the door was shut in time U->
prevent Johnson from entering. He
tried to force the door, and also to
effect an entrance through another
hail liecJi divs-ed, Mrs. Johnson made
a oha'gc against her lin-hand of at- j
tempted murder. She was then re
moved to her home in a carriage, j
and Johnson was placed in a cell.

.Ordered that ninety per cent, be levied upon
tlie State tax for tlie year 1877, t<- !c divided
in specific per tent, to each particular object
and purpose as hereinafter specified, sn as to
raise for the several objects and purposes below
enumerated the following respective sums or
amounts, viz:
To build or repair C.-urt-Hoiises or
Jails, Bridges or terries, or other pub
lic improvements $ 50“
To pay Sheritfs’, Jailers’, or other
other officers’ fees, that they may be
legally entitled to out of the county.,, son
To pay the expenses of ti c county for
Bailiffs at Court, non-resident witnesses
in criminal cases, fut I, servants’ hire,
stationery, and the like 50.1
To pay Jtttors 70,,
To pay expenses imurred in sup
porting tlie poor of tlie county, and as
otherwise pte-cribcd by tlic code con
$2,60“
The balance of said levy to be applied to the
payment of any ether lawitti charges against the
county.
The law requires the taxes to bo collected and
paid in by the loth of December, and it i-
Itereby strictly enjoined upon the Tux Collector
to complete liis collections and to settle Itis
accounts with tlie County Treasurer by that
time. It is much easier to collect taxes before,
than after December. The law concerning de-
lit quent Tax-Collectors will be strictly enforced
upon failure to make srttlcn.c.-t within the
time prescribed by law, without a lawful excuse.
