PREVENTIVE BETTER Than PUNITIVE LAW
A great deal too much tfal1 has been
INDUCED in concerning the excitement
which prevailed in this city on Wednrs-
day last. "A studied effort seems to have
been made to convince the people a:
home and abroad that violence was con.
templated on that day by the citizens OF
New Dreams opposed to negro rule, Il
gainst those members of the Legislature
who seemed determined to expel their
political antagonists, without just Or law
full reason, from the meetings of that
body. Undoubtedly this hi handed
course of action aroused the Indignation
of those against whom it was directed,
and that indignation wa, justly provok-
ed, but it is hardly possibly that any
sane person in the community had the
remotest intention of venting his anger
in deeds of violence. 1t seems to us to
be going little too far. as cotempora-
ry has done, to assert that but for the
dispersion of the crowd assembled near
Mechanics Institute, by a military off
Ger, "a more deplorable day than was
the 30th of July, 1866, would have prob.
ably ensued." If it be meant that this
riotous spirit animated the conservative
portion of the community-those who
arc opposed to this new carpet bag gov
ernment-we take leave TO deny it. If
there was any riotous spirit manifested it
must have been by the Radicals and their
negro dupes.
At the same time General Buchanan's
action in the matter is greatly to be COM
fnended. He knew that the proceed
ings of the carpet t-baggers. and their obe-
dient new allies, were calculated to pro-
woke struggle, and no doubt believed
II was their purpose to precipitate COL
lision. Gen Buchanan perhaps believ-
ed the Radicals imagined it would have
been to their interests there should be a
riot, and therefore very wisely adopted
the most vigorous measures to prevent
the possibility If so deplorable a caiami.
ty. We suppose Gen. Buchanan would
have dealt promptly with the individu |
ais who might hare taken part in such
asriot, Radical or Conservative. and ar.
rested them with the approval of the
peaceable members of this community |
He made very proper and effectual
display of his force, if breach of The
peace were really imminent. He seems
to be one Of those men of whom it can
not be said, they 'lock the stable door
when The horse has gone out" He is
evidently firm believer 10 preceatire !
law being better than panitiUe, and in
such a belief all good citizens concur.
We are pleased to observe that a !

seems to animate the majority of the

THE UNSEEN BATTLE FIELD.

There is an unseen battle field
In every human breast,
Where two opposing forces meet.
But where they seldom rest.
H.
The field is veilcd from mortal sight,
IT'S only seen by One,
Who knows alone where victory lies,
When each days work is done.
One army clusters strong and fierce,
Their chief Of demon form,
His brow is like the thunder cloud,
His voice the bursting storm.
His captains are the passions fierce,
Whose troops watch uight and day,
Swift to detect the Weakest points.
And thirsting for the fray.
Contending with t!.is mighty force,
Is bnt little band.
Yet there, with an unquaiIng front,
The warriors firmly stand.
VI.
Their leader is ofGod-like form,
OF countenauce serene,
And glowing on his naked breast,
A simple Cross is seen.
His captains are the Virtues fair,
Beneath MAT wondrons sign,
They fear no danger, for they feel
A courage all divine.
They feel it speaks glolious truth,
A truth rs great as sure.
That to be victors they must learn
10 -coutide-endure.
And when they win that battle field,
Past toll is all forgot;
The plains where battle once had reicucd
Becomes hallowed spot,
A spct where 1owers Of Joy and peace
Spring from the fertile sod.
And breathe the perfume of their praise,
On every breeze, to God.
