THE MEMPHIS PRESS AND THE
RIOTS.

We are gratifed at the moderate, conser-
vative tone Of the Memphis press concerning
the recent negro riots in that city. The
Arala,,che in its editorial notice, says:
The present state of the public mind ex-
cited as il is by the fact that the white Off
GERS Of the law have been fired upon by ne
groes, who but to-day have expired their
service as Federal soldiers, and dofied their
authority to begin an unlicensed foray upon
law and order, bids Us in the interest Of the
public peace, TO postpone, TO more calm Oc-
casion, any further observations which the
outrage naturally suggests.
We would at this time upon behalf of the
unfortunate class, who by the Vaccinations
and teachings of designing white men have
| been brought to this condition of turbulent
violent, nay bloody, opposition to the civil
law, ask our fellow-citizens to refrain from
any exercise of iustitiable violence upon
them. Many of them are innocent of any
| sympathy with the transaction. Do not
| make the innocent suffer for the guilty
| Strengthen with your great power the ma
| jesty of the law, and aid it in upholding its
dignity against the recurrence of so bloody
and unproyoked an outrage as was levelled
at it yesterday.
The Argus, treating of the same subject,
says:
But we cannot suffer the occasion to pass
without again calling the attention of the
authorities to the indispensable necessity Of
disarming these poor creatures, who have 50
often shown themselves utterly unfit to be
trusted with firearms On this occasion, the
facts all 90 TO show that but for this much
abused privilege accorded to them by mis-
guiding and misiudging friends, there would
have been no riot-no deadly attack, in the
first place on sworn officers ofthe law going
forward to make an arrest in the regular dis
charge Of their duty.
The universal question asked on all the
corners of the streets, is, "Why are not the
negroes disarmed2 2n

from those who have bceu engaged in the
action state that about two hours before
daylight the negroes went TO Fort Picker
ing, demanding arms and ammunition.
They were refused, and left. Shortly after
daylight they appeared at the fort again re-
peating their demand, when thecommandant
Of the fort called out the troops, and threat
ened to give them some doses of grape shot.
At this they left
The fighting began again on South street.
near Causey, and continued all morning, the
negroes being driven beyond the limits Of
the town. The number of negroes killed is
estimated at from thirteen to fifteen. have
positive information Of six. One white man
has been killed and two wounded, but 1t is
impossible TO obtain their names.
The Mayor called out posse comitotts of
two hundred men. The crowd gathered at
the gun store of Henry Fulsome this morn
ing, which was at the time closed, demand
ing il 20 be opened, as they wished to pro-
cure arms; and upon a refusal drove in
pannel and cleaned the store fall the pis-
tolls and guns.
The negroes this morning carried with
them black flag, which they waved defiant
ly at the citizens 1t is supposed to be
piece of black muslin.
The following appears in the Evening
Ledger
"A gentleman who resides in the country,
some twenty-five miles from this city, dis
covered on night before last, that several OF
his negro employees had deserted him.
Tracing them to this city, he found one this
morning in dying condition, from wound
he received in the last night. The dying
negro stated that the trouble last night was
premeditated, that he and his companions
came down to assist in it, and that it came
on prematurely. Tonight, he said, the
plan was TO attack the city, and rob all of
the iewelry stores and other houses"
The negro has since died. The report
is not generally believed among the citi-
Zens.
A white man named B. c. Dennis was
shot dead to-day in Center alley, by some
one yet at large II is said that he was talk
ing to a negro about the riot, and was mis-
understood by another white man, who de-
liberately shot the deceased, the ball enter
ing the breast and ranging toward the heart.
The jury returned the Murdered
by some unknown person"
4 man named Mike Kewan was caught
running from the spot, and, upon being Ia
ken to the station-house, was released.
During the riot to-day four negro tene-
ments were fired and totally destroyed. The
fighting ceased at II NJ. to-day. All is now

Very Important Order from the War
Department..

WASHINGTON, May "A general order
has Just been issued from the War Depart
ment in relation to trials by military courts
and commissions, stating that
WHEREAS, Some military commanders
are embarrassed by doubts as to the opera
tions of the proclamation of the President,
dated the ID day of April, 1866, upon trials
by courts martial and military ofenses.
To remove such doubts, it is ordered by
the President that hereafter when ofienses
are committed by civilians, they are to be
tried where civil tribunals are in existence
TO try them, and their cases are not author
lied to be, and will not be, brought before
military courts martial or commissions, but
will be committed TO the proper civil au-
thorties
This order is not applicable to camp fol-
lowers as provided for under the sixtieth
article of war, or 10 contractors and others
as specified in section 46 of the act of March
I'd, 1868. Persons and oiienses cognizable
10y the rules and articles of war and by the
acts Of Congress above cited, will be con-
temned TO be tried and punished by military
tribunals as prescribed by the rules and arti
cles of war and acts of Congress.
The Goth of the rules and articles of war
provides that all suffers and retailers of war,
and all persons whatsoever, serving with the
armies of the United States in the field,
though not enlisted soldiers, are TO be sub
ject to orders according to the rules and dis
cipline of war.
The acts of Congress, to which reference
is made here, that whenever any contractor
for subsistence, clothing, arms, ammunition,
munitions Of war, and for every description
of svpDlies for the army or navy of the
United States, shall be found guilty by a
court martial Of fraud or wilful neglect of
duty, he shall be punished by fine, impris-
onment or such other punishment as the
court martial shall adiudge, andfurther pro-
vision is made for the epunishment of persons
defrauding the army, navy or civil service,
by procuring false vouchers or entering into
a conspiracy with any persons in the en-
p'oyment Of the Government, with
view to fraud and other kindred ohenses.

\ TERRIBLE tragedy was committed at
Bellyernon, Pa, three or four days since,
in the murder of a man named Housman,
whose body was found sunk in the river.
The wife of the murdered man and a sup
posed paramour were suspected of the deed,
and arrested. A dispatch to the Pittsburg
Commercial dated Thursday, furnishes this
horrid confession Of the latter: Thairwell,
the murderer Of Housman, confessed while
on his way to prison. He says that at sew
eral times he and she (Housman's wife)
tried to poison him but failed. On the
night of the murder, he took Housman's
gun, placed the muzzle of it to his head and
shot him when asleep, his wife standing by
with tub to catch the blood. She put the
rope around his neck herself, attached an
anchor to it, and assisted TO drag the body
to the river He says he tried to get of
from doing the deed, but she persuaded him
until he consented, and now he expected to
hang for it.
