I learn that when the attempt was
made to obtain such an order from Gen
eral Candy, he inquired into the nature
of the grievance. Were any cOlored pee
pie prevented from going in the street
cars No. Did they fill them up, so
that there was need for more cars9 No.
Were they refused extra cars when there
was some special assemblage, picnic or
the like to call them out No. What,
then, was the grievance That there
wa, distinction made by the company
in excluding them from a portion of the
cars. fa|:s 1881
General Candy observed that he could
not see the grievence. They had plenty
of room for their travel and plenty of
conveyances, as much as the white peo-
pie had. They could not claim right
to force themselves upon the company of
the white people Therefore, am told,
Mr.. Durant rose and in his very tragical
manner and with tremulous emotion ex-
claimed, "There aoiu be blood shed then !"
"Ah!' said Candy, ut is true that
there is but a small force of United States
soldiers here Just nova mere handful;
if there should be blood shed / may find
it difficult to keep order; but l have
lately parolled over 10000 confederates,
and it is possible that if should need
their service to preserve order / might
obtain them" a'.
That settled the matter, for the time,
but we presume from the tone of the
editorial we have quoted that DURANT
is still in favorof "bloodshed"

L.
1t is very unfortunate thing that the
respeetfQs limits of civil' and military
authority, are not pore closely defined
and generally known than they are If
lds hecesmy and'determined upon that
/, @iailitary force shall be quartered in our
ncity during all time to come, some one
having sufficient intelligence and author
ity should define just where the civil au-
thority ends in the government OF the
city and the military authority begins
Such conflicts as those of last Saturday
must he very unpleasant and embarras-
sing to both civil and military officers
and something should be done to prevent
their recurrence in future. If it is to be
understood that soldier may be drunk
end disorderly upon the streets, or COM
nit any crime or violate any of the civil
laws or city ordinances and enjoy perfect
immunity from arrest or punishment eX-
cept such as bis commanding officer may
see fit to infict, the fact should be known
to the people If our officers of the peace
are not to have any jurisdiction over sol
dicrs whom they may find violating the
laws, they should certainly be Informed
OF that fact by some one having the right
to command. The line of jurisdiction
should he plainly drawn and if the civil
and the military authorities cannot get
along more peaceably together and better
preserve quiet and good order in the city
one or the other should be abolished.
We believe that there cannot rightful-
" he any conflict between the civil and
military authorities. The highest law
known to our country has provided that
"the military shall be subordinate to the
civil power" and it has generally hereto
fore, by both soldiers and citizens, been
considered the duty of the military TO
as.ist the civil power in the maintenance
of law AMI the preservation of good or
der. Such AT least, has generally been
the practice there The right of govern
ment clearly rests with the civil power
aud no conflict of authority can occur
except the military oversteps the trne
bounds of its jurisdiction or whe n the
jurisdiction of the military power is en-
larged by the proclamation and enforce
ment al martial law. But even in the
latter case no conflict should occur. be-
cause, the civil law being set aside, its
cfiicers wonld not attempt to exercise an-
'hority. 1t is only in the kind of mixed
government that we have been having in
this city during the past few weeks, Il
SOFT of compound of civil and military
rule, that any conflict of authority can
take place We earnestly hope that this
sia,c of things may speedily he brought
to an end and that the citizens may know
whether they are living under civil or
martial law.
