MARITAL Law Va BRowELowIsM
sister city Mobile lain one Of the Military
Districts, has military Mayor and Chief
Of Police, which, all in all, is very un.
enviable condition Of things But what
shsllwe say for Memphis, where, instead
Of army officers and martial law, we are
ruled by ambitious and INSCRIPTIONS
demagogues, aud there is no law save
that Of Brownlowism, In Mobile the
authorities have no ends 10 serve save
those of order and justice. In Memphis
personal ends are paramount to the
public veal, and hence the difference be-
tween a territorialized State and one
which has neither the freedom Of a State
nor the protection Of martial law. The
military chief of the Mobile police issued,
on the 18th, an order, in which the fol-
lowing occurs: !
II having been reported to this office,
and II being evident TO the Chief OF
Police that there exists in this city,
among the colored citizens, certain mill.
tary organizations, which meet for the
purpose Of drilling, etc, and that such
action is dangerous to the peace OF the
city. members Of said organizations
are hereby notified that such orgauiza-
ten must be disbanded immediately, or
parties connected will be arrested and
,nrnad oyar IN the military authorities
for trial of violation Of an act Of Con
gress, section 8, approved March 2, 1867,
as we'll as orders Of the Major General
Commanding district This does not
apply to meetings for the purpose Of
advancing and eleyating the educational
and social relations Of the race. r' ,-,-
Has il never been reported to the Chief
Of Police in Memphis that there exists
in this city, among the colored citizens,
certain military organizations which
meet for the purpose of drilling, etc. ?
Has it never occurred to the Chief Of
Police in Memphis that such organiza-
tons "are dangerous to the peace of
the city ?" If our Chief of Police will
answer the above, will he also say " that
such organizations must be disbanded
Immediately" or is he Of the opinion
that the dark lantern meetings Of the
Leaguers are calculated to advance and
elevate the educational and social rela-
t;ona of the race 2

TIE REvEL OF CRIME.-Under this
caption ar exchange says: "If the
reporters of the Memphis papers don't
stir up the police of that city to
double vigilance, or draw it milder
themselves in their accounts of the
multiplied crimes that transpire there
daily, Memphis will acquire an unenvia-
BILE reputation, and keep from her limits
much immigration that would otherwise
help to increase her Importance. The
daily papers seldom fail to give us &C
counts of shocking murders, cases OF
poisoning, drunken brawls, street fights,
the depredations Of thieves, or other
crimes, that go to show, either that the
a Bluff City feeds an unusual number Of
scoundrels, or that the laxity of police
discipline encourages, as it were, all the
brutal propensities of the hu man heart"
