addition to the details given yesterday
morning. The coroneF'5 inquest, which
held iiS session on Sunday evening, re-
turned verdict that the body was that
of MIR. Adams, and that be came to his
death by the hands of J. G. Colt. Mr.
c. was then fully committed for trial.
The evidence was most direct in every

New Map of Ohio.

The subscribers propose publishing new edi-

This Map is compiled from tho Surveys in tho
Surveyor Generals Office al Cincinnati, inpart
by Mr.. Samuel Morrison, whose skill as n
draughtsman, experience and known accuracy
are fully attested, not only by the present Sur
! vsyor Geaeral, but confirmed by the certificate
herounto attached, of Robert Il. Lytle, Esq, the
predecessor of Mr.. Hanes and will exhibit the
sections, fractional Sections, Virginia Military
Surveys, principal roads, Public works and CON
templated public Improvements, together with
the Lakes, Rivers, Indian Reservation, counties
Towns, cities and villages, which will bo laid
down with the greatest possible accuracy.
There is no doubt that this map will contain
the most minute and authentic information of
any state map ever published. One of tho pro-
pretors has visited every county in the State, for
the purpose ofgathering every inloma ton requis-
ite, to insure correctness. This fact of itself,
will necessarily give assurance to'those who may
patronlze the map, that for real utility, it must
supersede any map got up East, for the purpose
of state, but without the advantage of the per-
sonal inspection and labor that has been bestow-
cd exclusively on this.
The SIZE Of the map will be between and
feet square, neatly colored in counties, mounted
and vanished; aud sold to subscribers AT the low
price Of six dollars
Agents or companies taking ten copies, will
be allowed deduction Of forty per cent,
