THE want of fufficient information of the

cuefwhat can be colle&ed thereof from sources
of iudifputaple authority, f 0 that the fame (hall
be preserved from oblivion.
Another impeachment and the second is now
depending. An officer is charged by the late
House of Representatives, who hath for many
years been largely confided in by this ftate,and

partment of the fame, and it imports the citi
zens to know his conduct, and the circumftanccs
which may be brought forward on hi*trial.
