quarters, when the matter would be in.
vestigased, and if guilty the offenders
would be punished, This the Mayor de-
ciired 10 do, upon the ground that mar,
tial law had been ahrogated by the proc
lamation of the President, and all offences
against the laws of the State fell properly
under the Judicial notice of the State tri.
bunsls.
Gen. Foster in his rejoinder to the en-
phatic refusal of the Mayor to comply
with his request; says:
I" am compelled tocall yoar attention
to the fact that military lay is stiH su-
prene in This State, and hereby forbid
you to arrest hereafter, any officer, en-
listed man, or employee in any Of the
departments Of the United States Army
while i'm the discharge Of his official du-
ties; but request that yeu will send me
the name Of any of them, against whom
compliant is made, for my investigation
and aw~rd of punishment.
The Mayor replies again, and tails the
General that he cannot revive martial
law without denying the authority Of the
President to proclaim the restoration of
peace and civil law, and that -inasnaaeh ,ss

Work vs.. SrAnvAvIoN--W hat is stated
below by the Montgomery Mail, of the
idle and vagabond habits of the negroes
of that city, is no doukt true in regard to
them at good many other places:
1t is pretty generally known that there
is in the suburbs of the city locality
known as the Freedmen's Village;
built of miserable wooden structures,
tents, "holes in the ground" &c., imme-
diately on the banks of the river, and in.
habited by large number of worthless
filthy negroes, many of whom steal for a
living, and very few of whom will work
under any circumstances. Disease, O.
course, revels in this beniehted locality
To show the character of some of the in
babitants of this "vilage," we will-give
the following incident, related to US by
an old friend yesterday. He says neigh
bor of his who was short of hands, ac
eosted one of the citizens" at his resi-
dence in the village, and offered him gooc
wages to 20 into the cotton field, whe1
the negro replied: Sir, would stay il
town and starve, before | would pick cot
ton for anybody J" This shows what
mania there is among the negroes II
live in town. and when they reach th
eity their ambition has reached ito acme
We have thousands in our midst now
many of whom are actually starving
not for the want of work, but from lazi
ness. Winter is fast approaching, an'
then the mortality will assuredly b
heayy!. There is work enough for all
they would only do it. They should b
made TO word, and the vagrant &C
enforced.
