least part of the seggsetions of the Jefferson correspondent of the Republican who esems to be as -vindcliva against the dead as he is regardless of the living The trusat reason for this event would probably be found in a momentary alteration of mind produced hy that feeble health to which Gov had been for some time a victim Governor Roynolds bad been an old and honored resident of this Slats He
