Civil versus Military Law.

The case of the city ofWheeling against
certain soldiers of the Provost Guard'
which was decided yesterday by Alder
man JOHNSTON, was regarded asa kind OF
test question as to the superiority OF
civil or military law. The settle
ment that was obtained, establishing
the prominence of civil authority, was
due alike to the firmness of the Mayor
and Alderman and the wisdom of Colonel
WAsHBURNE and Lieutenant Colonel
FREY. The latter officers cheerfnlly CO.
operated with the civil power in bring
ing to punishment the offenders in the
Centre Wheeling disturbance, and. both
by word and deed, admitted the subordi-
nation of the military to civil law. Colo
mel FREY stated the whole matter in
few words when he said that "the SOL
diers were here to aid the civil officers
in the enforcement of law and the pres
ervation of good order; not to oppose
them"
We congratulate our citizens upon the
final settlement of this question, so far
as this community is concerned, and
upon the harmony which will doubtless
subsist henceforth between the civil and
military authorities in our midst The
officers at present. jim command here have
always manifested laudable desire for
the preservation of good order, but the
case which was decided yesterday exhib-
tied that desire in stronger and more IA
vorable light than any previous transac-
ton. We may henceforth consider the
laws fully indicated and established,
and offenders against the public peace
will hereafter be punished by the civil
law without any of that uuseemly clash
ing of authority which has marred onr
security in the past. The thanks of the
| people are due to Colonels WAsHBURN
and FREY for the very manly and cred
liable manner in which they conducted
their part of what was, at best, an nm
pleasant and delicate affair.
