favorable auspices. We have been sufferers
by universal hard times to ~ great IN
extent as any large city upon the
continent The superabundsnce enjoyed in
former years Of prosperity has given place
to comparative stringency. Our resources
are not now what they were once, nor what
they ought to be now. In addition to the
necessary consequences Of the great war, we
have been, since its close, the victims Of NAL
administration in our public affairs, SO far as
relates to our State government. From this
has resulted incalculable damage, whose ef-
fects are felt in all our households and in all
our walks of business. Many obstacles are
in the pathway of our progress, and our
property groans under heavy taxes nd large
public debts. But the spirit Of our people is
not broken, and their hopes in the future are
still unbroken. From this time onward we
will look for favoring events, and at each an
nual recurrence Of this holiday, it is our
ardent wish that our visitors may find us re-
joicing in steady return of prosperity.

THE QUESTION OF IMPEACHMENT.

|
peachment Of Gov. Kellogg, the BULLETIN
was influenced by the information, or rather
by the absence Of information in regard to
the charges and the testimony on which the
House purposed taking action. The BUILE-
TIN did not believe, and it does not now be-
lieve. that an intent on the part of the House
to take advantage Of the constitutional effect
Of the simple finding of articles OF impeach-
ment without preferring serious charges, sup
ported by adequate testimony, would be sane
toned by public opinion. The BULLETIN did
not believe, and it does not now believe, that
an attempt to revolutionize the State govern
ment through the perversion to partisan pur-
poses Of the solemn formalities Of impeach-
ment would be other than violent infraction
of the spirit of the adjustment.
II, on the contrary, 1t is true that Kellogg
has been guilty of acts which when substan-
tiated by competent evidence ought to assure
his conviction before an impartial tribunal,
public opinion would demand that the House
should proceed on the assumption that such
charges and such evidence would have their
due influence on the body which is to pass
Judgment upon them. It is now claim ed that
the House Committee are in possession of
they will present are SO serious as to assure
the conviction of the Governor, provided the
Senate, sitting as high court of impeach-
ment, act Independently Of party considera-
tions.
1t is deeply to be regretted that the ex-
istence of this eviden ce, and the nature of
the charges based upon it, were not re-
vealed before public opinion was di-
vided upon the propriety and the exne-
diency of proceeding in this way against
the Governor. The concealment which
seems to have been studiously practiced had
the effect Of justifying the apprehension that
mere partisan movement was intended, and
that the community was tv be involved in
turmoil and agitation for the accomplishment
of impossible purposes. The delay in coming
to conclusion must also be fruitful of bad
results. It Is only during the last days of the
session that the articles are brought in and
that the trial is to take place.
It would be too much to suppose that the
Senate, composed as it is of large majority
of the political friends of Gov. Kellogg, will
not avail itself of this pretext to 'acquit the
accused.
If the action now taken by the House had
been taken at an earlier day, if the charges |
now brought against Kellogg, together with
the evidence on which they are based. had |
been given to the public in the beginning of
The session, opinion here and throughout the
country would have been convinced that the
Governor was criminal as we'll as usurper,
and tho Senate itself might not have been
able to resist SO strong pressure.
We fear that the mystery and concealment
which have been practiced will be found to
have effsctually interrupted the course Of
Justice, and that, if kellogg escapes punish
nent, it will be because that determined
lction against him which ought to have been

The coaer essional Convention.

Yesterday we published au article from
the Princeton Tribune urging the indie
perdents to send no delegates to S. NJ
Smiths convention, but tos send delegates
to the Rock island convention, Of Thurs
day, and to urge,t the nomination of Mr..
Bryant if he can not be nominal
ed, then urge the nomination Of Maj. Stipp.
of Bureau. The Tribune says it can aud
will support f. B. Stiles if he is nominal
ed. but prefers Mr., Bryant
We have also received letter from
Lee urging the nomination Of either
Charles Durham or Judge Eustace. and
saying that "the nomination Of +. b.
Stiles would be mistake and would lose
largely in Lee county"
We have also received a copy Of the
Amboy journal containing communi-
cation calling attention to Mr.. Stiles re-
cord as found on tae criminal docket of
Lee County Circuit Court The cases are
not explained. but from the tone of tbs
communication they would seem to be
damaging.

"A number of friends and correspon
dents have inquired if the SIN woulc
support i. B. Stiles in case he is nominal
ed for COMPRESS 1t will not We re

The Methodist Sunday Pic-N

1t is said that the keeper of the res
taurant at the Methodist Sunday pic mic,
at Tyndall's grove, took in over 5000, on
last Sunday. This was doing big bush
ness. and rather beat any Of the Turner
Sunday pic-nicks we have had in this
region. BY the way-did it ever occur
to our Methodist friends who get up these
Sunday pic-nics, called "camp-meetings,
that they are playing a splendid card for
the Turner's? They profess to be greatly
opposed 20 the German mode OF spending
Sunday and yet they invite worse viola
ton of the sacred day. If christian churches
will close their houses of worship and
offer inducements to young and old to
hire livery teams and drive 10 miles and
back on Sunday, how can such a church
condemn in others what they practically
encourage among their members and the
publ; generally? Witness Sunday last
as an example of dissipation and Sabbath
breaking IN this direction, a 20 miles drive
with more or less OF racing aud boisterous
laughter; a hundred teams, more or less
rushing into our quiet city on a Sabbath
evening-some Of them with rowdies, some
with boys and girls, and others with stale
church members is no pleasant sight tt
those who care for the sauctity of til,
Sabbath. Nothing but necessity cal
justify, in christian eyes, such drive oil
Sunday--no plea of religious meeting
no matter whether it be to camp o
court, can extenuate such proceeding
The example is bad-and the act itself
1t it be not sin is certainly a dissipation
calculated to ipjure the sentiment of re
spect which christians deem so desirabl
to cultivate for the Sabbath among GU
lpeeple,
