zILITTA-4ARFIAL Law.

On our third page, We publish this
morning what purpOrts to be the text Of
q proclamation that was to have been
published by Gov. BROwELOw yester-
day. AS we have not SO far been ap-
prised Of its issuance, we viii hope that
the Governor has been prevailed upon
to forego his resolution, especially in
view Of the very generally expressed de-
sire to that end by the people, and the
numerous pledges OF peace that have
gone up from every part Of the State.
No good can come from the employment
Of q militia force in Tennessee at this
time. on the contrary, evil, nothing
but unmitigated evil, such as has in
hicted the worse than curse Of Cain upon
Arkansas, and ruined her trade and
prospects. We ask, by every considers
ton thst can affect OuE people, that Gov.
BEOwNLOw signslize the close Of his
GubernstOrial career by inaugurating an
ers Of peace that before pyomulgating
this proclamation, he viii see to it that
every means known to the civil law
has been made use Of for the msinte-
nance Of peace and the punishment Of
offenders. Lot him order the Sherifs Of
counties to exhaust the posse eOalaGtu8
for that purpose, and only when failure
with that body ensues, have recourse to
so extreme q measure IS the calling on.
Of the militia. Just at this time, when
the State, the county and the city, SIS
well s citizens, are reviving from the
effects Of q great financial pressure, the
calling out of the militia will prove dis
AstrOus to our every interest, and ruinOus
beyond computation. In GODS name,
let US have peace.

THE Washington correspondent OF
the Baltimore Gazette says: The Post
master General has nov under conside-
ration the propriety Of ordering mail
service on the old route from Fort Smith
in Arkansas to Fort Coneha in Texas, a
distance Of $50 miles, by coaches, at an
annual cost OF 1856. 600, the pro rata pay
allowed on the route from San Antonio
to San Diego on the Pacific. The ser
vice is strongly recommended by nj.
Wade and other Radical Senators, bat
Mr.. Randall hesitates about ordering the
service in view OF the prevalent disposi-
ton 20 assaiI the Postofice Department
for everything it does. It is shown that
this route would not only supply a pop
ulssion Of 2l0, 600 with their mails ten
days earlier, but that six regiments OF
troops have no other mail facilities.
L would also afford direct Transports
ton to army sad other Government
officers to and from 3 region to reach
which these offoeFs are forced to the cir
cuitoas and unhealthy route through
New Orleans.
