For somD time past, as II is well known,
mounted guards havc,at the request Of the
city authorities, been stationed upon the
corners Of streets, in this District, 10 regu.
late tho movement OF Government horses
and Wigons, and also to prevent hackmen
from unnecessarily obstructlDg the streets
in fro,,t OF the doorWays OF hotels with
their hacks. In executing the latter orders
the yl',ettes have frequently overStepped
the Ark. There are many complaints
that Business men have been greatly an
noyed In attempting to transact their
prlvats business and where civil officials,
In tht performance OF thGir duties, have
been abruptly ordered 10 remove thoir
private carriages. But the most serious
compl Alnts have been the rough and i'm
pudent manner In which the vldettes have
executed their orders upon ladies who have
Stopp,id ut the private entrance Of Will
lArds' and other hotels.
To-day We are glad 70 announce that the
military authorities have notified the civil
Authorit that the vldettes will hereafter
only attend 10 their military duties, and
that tho regulation Of carriages, private OF
publlr, about hotel, and elsewhere, will be
left to- the police.
This is as II should be. Tho city 10 moi

with the present efficient police force

Tn. R.mov.l or Judge Grason, OF M,


The Removal OF Judge GrasOn, OF Md.
The Maryland House Of Delegates yes
terdAy concurred In the majority report and
accompanying resolution Of the Commit
tee OF Elections, declaring tho election Of
Judge GrAson, as Judge OF the eighth judi
ciAl circuit, Baltimore county,) nuility.
The report alleges as the grounds for this
action that In April, 1851, Mr.. Grason was
q member Of the Baltimore county Horse
Guards" and In that capacity resisted the
passage through the State Of certain Penn
sylVania troops, ordered by the President
OF the United States to Washington city
for the defence OF the capital. II 10 con-
ten ied that Mr.. GrASoD, In combining with
the company OF men referred to, fell under
the disability declared In the 4th section Of
article OF The new Constitution.
The committee, without deciding upon
the wisdom OF the constitutional provision,
held themselves bound by II, and after ex-
pressing doubts whether tho contestant,
Mr.. James L Rldgely, who was Mr.. GTa-
sons opponent at the late election, had the
residence In the county necessary to give
him the requisite qualifications OF Judge,
arrived at the conclusion as TO Judge GrA-
son already noted.
On the final vote, all the Democrats present
voted In favor Of Judge Grason, together
with MessrS. Brown, Cummings, Hynes,
Lee, OF Baltimore city, Pllkiugton, and
WArdwell, Union members, making 32 In
all. The ~ votes cast against Judge Gra-
son were from the Union side OF the House.
