Tho Executive Committee Of the san Francis.
co Vigilance Committee in closing their labors,
have issued an address to their fellow members.
After rehearsng the causes which brought the
organization into existence, they end AS follow:
The aggregation aud discipline of u large mill.
tary force was a measure of prudence and neces
sity. The peace and safety of the community
required it. Without its overwhelming power n
bloody issue would have been forced upon you.
BY its strength and perfection the exertions Of
your opponents to organize aud bring into the
field hireling force, of the worst outcas,s of
cety, to destroy you, have been rendered mpo.
tent and abortve, and thus the city has been
spared the horrors of civil war. You took up
arms for protection, and not for aggre ssion. Had
no armed opposition been arIayed against you,
your work of Justice would have been ac accomplish
ed without bearing arms. Determined yourselves
to avoid the shedding of blood, you made no at.
tack upon your foes until they took the field IA
ganst you.
Other rogues remain UNPUBLISHED, and some
high in position They can hope for no immu-
atty in the adjournment of the Committee. The
eye OF Vigilance is upon them. The sword of
Justice is yet suspended over them; other modes
OF punishment are in reserve for them The
'snAhce OF the whole community in respect 10
crime and the abuse Of Office has been awakened.
