are not able to relate with cer
tainty what gave rife to fuch
horrid aft; but are led to believe
that the heat of argument on the
politics of the day, together
with feme degree of inebriation,
has produced this atrocious
deed. Mr. Albertfon was a
tefpcftable citizen, and has left
a widow and feveral (mall chil
dren to deplore his untimely
end.
Wc underftand that a jury
of inqueft was immediately
: called, who brought in a verditt
of willfu ] murder , committed by
