Mob Law In New Orleans.

en- Wednesday night a revolution
broke out in New Orleans. A Vigi-
lance Committee in large numbers took
possession of the Arsenal in Jackson
Square and distributed the arms among
the citizens. In the morning loaded
cannons were posted about the Arsenal
and two hundred men fully armed and
equipped we're stationed on guard.
The following address was then distrib-
uted about the city:

| TO the Arsenal enrolled themselves and
we're supplied With arms and ammuni-
ton. The militia, undse coumasd Of
General Tracy were then ordered ont
and the Mayor accompanied by the City
Council went to the head quarters Of the
Vigilance Committee and read the riot
act. While the two companies Of mil
tia were engaged in making cartridges
the Vigilance Conlmittee seised = large
number Of bales Of cotton, and with
them barricadcd the streets. Al th's
period the accounts BY telegraph hs-
came somewhat confused and state
merely reporta Of compromises and
trcaties between the city authorities
and the Vigilance Committee, or give
statements Of murders, robberies, in
cendiary speeches aud inaammatory
placards, by both parties. One tact
only is established to certainty and
that is that at the date Of the latest
dispatch no great collision had occur
red between the opposing parties.
1t 10 stated that the Vigilance Com
mittee is supported by the most re-
spectacle citizens and that they are
determined to carry their point. The
press has taken sides ~ follows The
Picayune and Crescent for the city, and
the True Delta and Delta for the
Vigilance Committee-the remainder
are neutral.
1t is difficult as yet to express any
intelligent opinion upon the action Of
the people of New Orleans in subvert-
ing the organized government and ta-
king the law into their own hands. A
degree of corruption and oppression
and a neglect Of duty by the legally
constituted authorities, almost un.
known in this country, is necessary to
Justify their action. We have always
opposed mob law in the most strenuous
terms and until facts shall come to
light showing an unparalleled corrup-
ton and neglect Of duty on the part
of the officers of the law, we cannot
feel justified in countenancing in any
manner the resort in this instance to
the code of Judge Lynch. The evils
dangers and frequent injustice Of riot
law arc too we'll understood to need
repetition at our hands. There can be
no doubt but that the atmosphere OF
San Francisco was greatly purified by
the popular storm which swept over
that city a few years since; but even
in that instance, where the city was In
tested with black legs, swindlers, rob-
bers and assassins to such an extent
that life and property were unsafe and
the officers of the law we're powerless
to execute their duties, acts Of high
handed injustice were done by the
Vigilance Committee and men having
no opportunity to prove their limo
cence, suffered the penalty for crimes
of which they were entirely guil:less.
Whatever may have been the prov
ocation it is to be hoped that the peo-
pie of New Orleans will dispense with
the desperate expedient Of a Vigilance
Committee at the earliest possible mo-
ment. 1t has been stated that the
movement had its origin in politics
bit from the fact that it appears to. be
sustained or opposed by the press and
people without regard to political par
ties, we arc of the opinion that this
suspicion is groundlcss.
