Must BE Caution. in Our Legislation.

Mr.. ALEXANDER ii. STEPHENS Of Georgia
hns recently been holding ono OF his Gus
tomary interviews time with q CORE
spondcnt Of the HerdM Mr.. STEPHENS OK
hibits his characteristic modcsty. setting
forth that he alone understood tho condition
Of public sentiment in 1854 and that ii was
his views which carried Pennsylvania for
BUCHANAN. Other men were discouraged
but he was confident the Democracy would
succeed it was the first time he had ever
acted with thcml
Mr.. STEPHENS Is no more dishoartened
now than he was in 1854. Some care. how
ever, he thinks will have to be- exercised
1--WE must" he says "above all things, be
cautious in our legislation"
On this point Mr.. STEPHENS is entirely In
the right. The South especially. and the
Democracy in general, must. above all
things, be cautious In the measures they
pass, or even propose, at the next session Of
Congress, II they desire to see Democratic
President elected In lssO.
But II is not the Democrats alone 81 whom
the country will require caution in lcgisla-
tion. A. they have a majority. the greater
responsibility rests on them, 1t is true; but
bad laws are often enacted by a pcrverse
combination Of men Of different parties
The Republicans are now on their good be-
havior. as well as the Democrats. The poo-
pie have found ont better we think than
they ever understood beforc-that all men
intrusted with the tremendous power Of
legislation require very close watching.
1t is greatly to be desired that the people
may continue permanently In this state OF
mind. The country has suffered too much
already from bad legislation. Party attach
ments are weaker because they are more
rational than they once were, and a short
shrit bctidcs the public man who seeks to
work evil through the potent medium Of

LON. He objects, however, to being tried
before the Circuit Court, IL held by that
Judge or Judge LOVE, of the District Court
for Iowa, who took part in all the decisions
complained Of. There Is force in this objec-

that some other Judge should be brought in
