MILITARY AND CIVIL AUTHoRITlEs.-Thc
conflict between the military and civil author
tiles in Washington, on Thursday last grew
out of the fact, that squad of soldiers went
to the Jail for the purpose Of effecting the
release of colored woman alleged to be
under military protection, and who had been
sent thither by virtue of the decision of tn.
commissioners under the fugitive slave law.
The jailer, MFR. Milburn, and Deputy Mar
shall Phillips refused to deliver to them the
woman without an order from Marshal La
mon. The consequence was the military
made them prisoners, together with the coun-
sci for the claimants of the woman, and
lodged them in the central guard-hou,e, and
removed the woman to another part of the
city.
AT subsequent period the Marshal him.
sell, accompanied by Superintendent of Po-
lice Webb, and one OF his sergeants, repaired
to the jail, and in turn captured and made
the two military guards prisoners.
On Friday evening ALL who were arrested
by either side were released We hear that
the Military Governor, Gen. Wadsworth
predicated his order to take the woman from
the lawful custody Of the United States mar
shall, upon testimony impugninz the loyalty
OF the claimant. Gen. Wadsworth intends
to insist on an examination into every case
where an alleged fugitive has military pass
or protection, or where there is reason to be-
lIeve the accused is free under the law of
August last, conGscatng slaves who have
been employed for insurrectionary purposes.
Marshal Lamon and Military Governor
Wadsworth had long interview on Friday.
relative to the conflict of Jurisdiction between
them. The question at issue will have to be
settled by the Executive.
