Litchfield enquirer., 1836-06-09

The Rail RonaRM, tcontrnEy 20 the fear expressed
by us last week. Incorporating Company to con-
struct RAD Road through the western section o this
county, we are glad to learn has passed through the
Legislature. The capital is ee00O0O with liberty to
increase II, we understand should the profits Of the
company warrant them inextending branch of the
road to Litchfed, to 81, 100000. We have not seen
the act and do not know any thing of its other provi
SONS, except that it gives the company five years in
which to commence operations. s7s y
Among the removals from Office in this county bv
the recent legislature was Joseph Adams Esq of this
town, from the petty Office Of Justice Of the Peace
He is now in his 69h year. and could constitutonaiy
have held the appointment but year longer con
sequentiy vengeance must be administered speedily
or the chance would pass by. Reason-he is the fa-
Their Of the editor of the Lch6ed Enquirer. This is
indeed reversing the saying Of the good book and in
stead Of visiting the sins of the father upon the chill
dren it is visiting the inquites political doubless)
of the son upon the father 1t is pitifu species of
malice, and worthy only of Legislators that would APP
point John M Niles and Perry Smith as Senators in
Congress and Hugh p WEIGH an Associate Judge Of
Litchfeld County Court. ''},. s3s 90 to'
o. Yesterday was the eighteenth day in succession
that the wind has been in the Northeast and has not
during that time changed but for few minutes to the
East and Southeast-and more unpleasant time for
the season Of the year do recoect ever to have
experienced. We fear part Of the time the wea-
Their was quite cold, that the young fruit will have
been injured Grass and grain, we learn, is forward
and looks well, but corn is backward and sickly.

The trial Of young Robinson for the murder Of He
len Jewett commenced in New-York on Thursday
last. Considerable excitement existed and the Court
room and all the avenues leading to it were 80 throne
cd thata strong police stationed around to pre-
serve the peace. Thursday, Friday, and most of Sat
urday were devoted to the testimony on the part of
the prosecution, and Monday for the defence. The
testimony and summing up il was supposed would be
closed on Tuesday night, and the case committed 10
THE jury The testimony against the prisoner is Who'll
~ crcumstantial but zoe think the chain Of crcum-
stances are very strong against him. The testimony
for the defence goes to attempt to- establish an al5
and not as in many cases nowadays, insanity Con-
adering the bad reputation Of many Of the witnesses
against him, We are prepared to- hear that Robinson
will be acquitted. But, as in the case of Avery, we
think it will be difficult to convince the public that he
did not commit the murder. m iaaS ID as;t}is eaaS
