 Mn. ADAMs- SrR- In your issue of the present tlastj week, there is article, tho protessedly more report, which is calculated to mslead and pre- judice the public mind in respect to transaction now undergoing, legal investigation. The inquiry, however, is suspended short time, to be resumed again on Friday of next week. rhave reference to the reported murder said to have taken place in Canaan. The excitement first prevalent in that sec tion of the country, believe now is subsiding at least in very great measure; and think It's ahate- ment is necessary to insure fair and impartial ln- veatigation. The deceased was found with marks of violence upon his head and without due inquiry, apprehend, the public, portion of it. sprsng at once to the conclusion that murder had been com- naitted. will here state that. during the inveslga- tion thus far there has not in my opinion been ec'ted sAe slgfess evience o murder having been corait- ted at aR and much less of criminay on the part of the defendant. l believe, from the evidence ad- duced the death to have been the result of accident
