SEC. 26. The House of Delegates shall have the sole
power of impeachment in all cases; but a majority of all
the members elected must concur in the impeachment. All
impeachments shall be tried by the Senate, and when sit-
ting for that purpose, the Senators shall be on oath, or af-
firmation, to do justice according to the law and evi-
dence; but no person shall be convicted without the con-
currence of two-thirds of all the Senators elected.

SEC. 27. Any bill may originate in either House of the
General Assembly, and be altered, amended or rejected by
the other, but no bill shall originate in either House during
the last ten days of the Session unless two-thirds of the
members elected thereto shall so determine by yeas and
nays, nor shall any bill become a Law until it be read on
three different days of the Session in each House, unless
two-thirds of the members elected to the House where such
bill is pending shall so determine by yeas and nays, and no
bill shall be read a third time until it shall have been actu-
ally engrossed or printed for a third reading.1

SEC. 28. No bill shall become a Law unless it be passed
in each House by a majority of the whole number of mem-
bers elected, and on its final passage, the yeas and nays be
recorded; nor shall any Resolution, requiring the action of
both Houses, be passed except in the same manner.

SEC. 29. The style of all Laws of this State shall be, "Be
it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland," and all
Laws shall be passed by original bill; and every Law enacted
by the General Assembly shall embrace but one subject, and
that shall be described in its title; and no Law, nor section
of Law, shall be revived, or amended by reference to its title,
or section only; nor shall any Law be construed by reason of
its title, to grant powers, or confer rights which are not ex-
pressly contained in the body of the Act; and it shall be
the duty of the General Assembly, in amending any article,
or section of the Code of Laws of this State, to enact the
same, as the said article, or section would read when amend-
ed. And whenever the General Assembly shall enact any
Public General Law, not amendatory of any section, or ar-
ticle in the said Code, it shall be the duty of the General
Assembly to enact the same, in articles and sections, in the
same manner, as the Code is arranged, and to provide for
the publication of all additions and alterations, which may
be made to the said Code.
