ORDER RFIGNS IN BALTIMORE.

cient measures proposed by Mayor Swami, for tn
preservation OF the peace Of the city, whereby tn
Governor is induced to proclaim that the use of tn
military enrolled under his order will not be furthe
contemplated at the ensuing election. This fact col
s,ituted the basis for al announcement 10 the publ
Yesterday afternoon, which led to the imnediai
batement Of the prevailing excitement, and the ult
mate restoration Of q state OF serenity and absOlu;
quietude in the streets unusual in our city for CON
time past, and unprecedented on the eve Of all iu
portant election.
The details Of the arrangement above mentione
nre presented in another part OF The Sun this mort
ing, officially. They include a proclamation froI
the Mayor, and one from the Governor, with the co
respondence between them, and brief letters frol
other distinguished citizens who have been active
the support of the Governor, and, with persona
friends Of the Mayor, earnest in their efforts to effet
the satisfactory result which has been attained. Tn
candid and mutually conciliatory tone Of the CORES
poudence can but exert a corresponding Inn uenc
upon the public mind, and will unquestionab'y met
with such a response from the orderly citizens {
Baltimore as will conduce TO the suppression of viz
Ience, aud the complete restoration OF the civi! an
political rights of the people.
With this, as the ultimate result OF the measure
proposed. we shall have occasion to congratulate IN
community upon something infinitely better than
triumph Of either party-the triumph OF law owe
!uw!essness, OF government over anarchy, and IN
dawn of that peace and order out OF which We ma

which the issues pending between the State ana mu
nicipal authorities were harmOnlZed, We make III
following statement from reliable information. o
Friday last Messrs. George Blown, Columbus U
Dounell and Wm. McKim called upon the Goverho
at Barnum's Hotel and expressed a sincern concerl
respecting the sspectof public affairs, and an earneS
desire for the adjustment Of the existing difficulties
The Governor indicated a like desire, and manifesto
such a disposition ~ induced them 10 communicate
with MAYOR Swami, and TO assure him tina: they wer'
well satisfied with the Governors Intentions. No
thing further could be accomplished ut this time, how
ever, inasmuch as an iutimatiOn was made that Gov
Lyon should embndy in a letter to tho mayor villa
he had communicated to the gentlemen present; th!
the Governor declined, inaslDuch az he had ALREADY
twice addressed the mayor to the same general pur
port.
On Saturday the same gentlemen-with the eXcep
ton of Mr.. J VI. Gordon in the place of Mr.. Grorg,
Brown-called upon The Governor again, and siatec
that they were not willing 10 forego the purpose they
contemplated, and still hoped that Il favorable resul
would be- attained. They then proposed 20 the Go
vernon to name a friend who should consult with ano
tLer on the part Of The Mayor. TO which the Governo;
acceded, the latter naming Gen. Is. L. Howard auI
the former the Hon. Henry Winter Davis. Th,s
gentlemen met in company with those already NAMED
on the part of the Mayor, aud Mr.. W. IL. ID. c

Esqs. on the part Of the Governor.
Upon invitation Of the Mayor, these gentlemen
to his office, and there were informed oi
the arrangements which he had ma:ured for the pre-
of the peace. At the close of this INFER
view they adjourned to Barnuin's Hotel, whittier H..
Mayor, accompanied by his friends, also proceeded,
occupying an apartment for the purpose OF facilitating
further consultation, which continued until u late
hour on Saturday night, several other gentlemen
participating in the proceedings. Further discussion
was finally postponed until III O'Clock on Sunday
morning.
When the parties again met yesterday morning,
