A TRIBUNE THREAT.-The peoples con-

called a ladder of five steps, upon which
the South was invited 10 climb to the plat

ever, waiting for the rebels to use it. When
tired of waiting and holding, the people
will move on, leaving behind one single and
permanent step-that of impartial suffrage.

warned against persistence. The distinc.
ton was clearly marked ont between re-
sor, to the courts to obtain possession OF
property and for the purpose of establish
I ing a right to the exercise Of official power,
but all in vain. Led on by zeal in a bad
>cauSc, the requirements Of the law, as we'll
as the timely exposition OF its obligations,
were disregardcd by these mon. The pco-
pie OF Baltimore were saved from scenes
OF violence and blood because, respecting

whose hands were raised in rebellion
against constituted authority, and proposed
to trample the Jaw under foot. The iudg.

Messrs. Young and Valiant, the gentlemen

from the custody of the court yesterday,
at once repaired to the Office occupied by
them at the time OF their arrest, No.

mcnt. A considerable crowd of persons
gathered about the building during the az
tcrnoou, composed mostly of these inte-
rested in police appointments; but the best
order prevailed, and all requests made by
the old police force on duty in the vicinity
were quietly, and apparently checrfully,
complied with. The result was IN aSSu-
rance from the marshal that from and after
this morning he and the force under his
command would report to the new board,
and to it only. Later in the evening De-
putty Marshal Manly, Captain William II.
Casscll, of the western district, and other
officers, waited on the board and express

THE DEATH or THE TrCooN OF JAPAN
We learn from a dispatch by the Atlantic
cable that the war in Japan is ended, and
that the report of the death Of the Tycoon
is confirmed. The war arose from the re-
volt Of one Of the numerous hereditary
princes, or clieftains-200 in number, ii
is said-amonc whom the japanese empire
is divided. OF these princes the Tycoon
is the chief, but they are all subject to the
authority OF the Mikado, or supreme ruler
of Japan, who is the spiritual leader Of the
empire. Until within late period it was
believed that the Tycoon was the temporal
head OF the empire, who carried on the
government in the name of the Mikado,
but more accurate knowledge Of his office
and rank has recently been obtained, from
which it appears that he is but the first OF
the hereditary princes. AS such, how
ever, he enjoys very considerable powers,
and is generalissimo Of the Imperial army.
The name Of the late Tycoon was Mino
