THE NEW ORDER OF THINGS.

The Metropolitan Ponce law Is he'd III
general detestation on account, prlnci-
pally, Of its origin. sItsprang from reyolu-
ton, and bears upon its face the political
features Of those who, embracing the
opportunity Vfa civil war, resolved into
their own hands the liberties OF the peo-
pie. Originating mainly in an antago-
nism to the Southern people, it affords
the opportunity Of exiting them from
government, and concentrating power ia
the hands of those who detest them THIS
measure, as the child Of the present gov
eminent of the State, is in all respects
worthy of its parentage. Coming upon
the heel Of general Acknowledgement 1t
completes our suhjugation. Still 1t Is,
until repealed or pronounced Invalid
by the proper authorities, the law
of the land, and as such, must be submit
ted to. We must have some sort OF po-
lice regulation, and as this measure is
all we are allowed to have, it's every
mans duty. not only to yield to'ii hss M
diyidual submission. bnt to assist IN rem
dering it. if possible, efficient in it's OPP
erations The people will give it fair
trial and if. good shall result from It,
they will then conclude, not that the sys-
TEN is. wise one, but that they have
4
thwar,ed All evil, and wrung a benefit
from what was meant for an oppression.
1t is the duty, therefore, of the whole peo-
pie, to aid the new police organization
in its efforts to suppress crime, but While
they do so, they will hold it to rigid ac-
countability, as far as it can be made
accountable. If 1t shall prove better
than the old System, It will not then be
entitled to praise. IL must rise above it,
or the scheme will encounter in an adj
ditional degree the detestation OF the
people. let the thing then go into oper-
alton. and. TO vindicate itself and its au-
tbors. prove that it is, both in conception
and execution. superior to any other
This result would disarm the fiercer as
poets of opposition, if it did NOT bring
popularity The great mass Of the South
ern people are content to wait for the
advent of better times and better men.
They are submitting with wonderful grace
10 insult and afllietiOn, and can submit
even to an outrage like that laid upon

remarks by reminding our police govern
ment, from the highest to'the lowest, that
they cannot escape the eyes Of the press
and that every wrong they may perpe-
trate, will be mercilessly exposed.
