We think if General Sheridan were only to
dismount from his stills for a little while, and
consent to view facts and to draw inferences
in the same manner that ordinary people do,
he would perceive the great injustice he has
done the Judiciary in the representations he
has made in reference TO them. The misfor-

ignorant of the true sentiments of a people
whom he persists in governing, and almost
totally unacquainted with the individual ele-
