In a letter from Hon, A. stephens 70
gentleman In this city, he says rs 10 matters
in Georgia, my opinion ID that the only
proper course to be taken, is for each one Of
the House Of our General Assembly 20 con-
form to the principles Of our Supreme
Courts decision on the eligibility question
In future isues. They cannot either legally
or cOnstltutionAlly undo and do over again
what they have done in the matter; II would
unsettle and render void all their subsequent
legislation, and introduce general confusion.
IL would be against all principles and pre-
cedent, and would be revolutionary in itB
character.
