MAYOR WoOD's PRoCLAMATIoN.--During the
intense excitement which has prevailed In the
city for the last few days, Mayor Wood issued a
proclamation calling upon the people to main
tain order, respect property and person, and
refrain from violent demonstrations OF every
kind. 1t was consderate and timely docu-
ment, and had all his previous messages been
as reasonable in their tone and sentiment, it
would have been better, perhaps, for his re-
putation. But we cannot see the propriety of
minor journals like the Iribune, and Times,
and World, pitching into the Mayors procla-
nation. When q public man issues an unob-
jectonable document he should not be abused
therefor In this instance Mayor Wood only
did what was manifestly his duty as chief ma
gistrate, in times of unusual popular excite
ment, in order to preserve the peace of the
city.
The citizens are indebted, too, to the Police
Commissioners and to Superintendent Kennedy
for the measures which they adopted to keep
the peace against number of rowdies and
violent persons, instigated to riot and disturb
ance, no doubt by q set of people who have
always some mischief in their minds, in times
Of great excitement, ready at any 4oment to
get up a turbulent demonstration, regardless
of the peace and safety Of the community. The
police on this occasion displayed dreat deal
of energy and activity, which wouldfgo far to
show that they are well organized to,syeserve
the public peace in any emergency. ID > true
that many Of the Southern fire-eatrz Rugged
the idea to themselves that at such b time as
this public opinion would manifest itself in
riots and bloodshed, which would bring ruin
and desolation to the Northern cities; but this
is grand mistake-there never was any fear
of such result. There is no necessity for
riotirg in the North The crisis demands only
one soul and one movement to relieve the
country from its present embarrassments and
complications, and the people of the Northern
States are all of one mind as to the position of
affairs, and the determined policy just inaugu-
rated by the administration.

This is all that anybody at the North means
by coercion, and all that is really necessary to
save the Union and uphold the Government.
There is no intention in the loyal States to in
wade and conquer the States which have re-

the superior force Of the United States, but
their forcible subjugation would answer no good

A bin to repeal the Personal Liberty law of

repeal, except to despise the cowardice which
thus attempts to appease them. Rhode Island
