ing that Gov r led Of that State was i'm
peached to-day by unanimous vote of
the Legislature upon the report o. the

is known here as TO the developments
which caused this prompt action on The
part Of the Legislature, but charges have
been freely made for some time against
the Governor Of gross 'rauds in 'nnectinn
with the issue Of bonds for the building of
railruads, and it is understood that the
charges have heen proven by the evidence.

of sale and decamping to Florida, is said
to have been i'm league with Gov. Reed

bonds, in exchange for an equal amount
of railroad bonds, building with the pro-
ceeds only niue miles If road! The issue
of State bonds to railroads is prohibited

AS God made no two faces and no

if He intended each one of us TO be
intellectually and spiritually unique?
The Intimate is nOtin want of models.
He does not stereotype His works

edition after edition of the human
race, like Johnson's or Ainsworth's
dictionaries. Having made a man,

and were 1t not for the pervese deter
mination of human beings generally
to let some fellow mortal do their
thinking for them, We should have
an intellectual variety, in some de-
gree corresponding to the Creators
beneficient Intentions. AS it is, men
think in sects, just as sheep run in
hocks. And however absurd, the
spiritual capers and gymnastics
which the originators Of a sect may
have seen fit 10 cut, each humble fol-
lower considers himself in duty bound
10 Jump Just at the same spot and in
the same intellectual direction. 1t is
strange that men donot see the absurd
ity of strutting about, arrayed in the
borrowed plumage of some scientific
or theological peacock, particularly
as their own intellectual feathers,
however grey and homely, would be
so much more natural and becoming.
