The law confers upon the policeman excep-
tional powers, and surrounds him with pro-
lection. He is authorized to carry pistol
and club. Resistance offered to him aggra-
Yates the original offence The oath of
policeman is taken in preference to that of an
alleged criminal. When the blue-coated,
brass-buttoned gentleman lounges at the cor
ner or slowly patrols the street he silently
says to society, 81 am the law. I represent
its majesty. Respect me. Behave yourselves
Beware ]" This is as it should be; for an in
efficient police, incapable of commanding
respect for the law, would be worse than
none. But the very fact that the law
thus clothes the policeman with its
moral influence and trusts him with
weapons which other citizens are forbid
den to carry should make him feel his respon.
sibility. 1t is great responsibility, and we
think good policeman is hardly to be over
priced, especially in city like New York.
But too many members Of our present police
force seem to be ignorant of their duties and
to suppose themselves to be the masters of
society, not its servants. OF the brutal man
ner in which they use their clubs upon
drunken men, of the peremptory, insolent
way in which they order respectable citizens
to ''move on" there have been many instances
Yesterday We printed the testimony of re-
spectacle witnesses of case of cruel clubbing
in this city, which is further substantiated by
the evidence in court This appears to have
been an act Of inexcusable brutality, for the
drunken man was not beaten to overcome re-
sistance, but was assaulted after he
had surrendered, thrown out of his
cart and dubbed till he became
unconscious. If this were novelty in police
conduct it would be bad enough but, unfor-
tunately, such cruelty has of late been COM
mon. Policemen are frequently more rufianly
than the rufflans they are expected to keep in
order, and are more to be avoided by prudent
citizens, especially at night. We should be
glad to see the Superintendent of Police or
the courts make examples of some of these
knaves who are so ready to usCzhe clubs, and
neither judge nor Jury shopld fail to consider

Troops ORDERED TO THE SoUTH.-The gov
eminent has taken action at last upon the
troubles and outrages in the South. The
Attorney General found the President ready
to use his full power, and the consultation at
Long Branch was brief and the decision en-
phatic. Although General Grant thinks
the disorganized condition of the South
has been exaggerated for political rea-
sons, he has written to the Secretary
OF War to place the United States troops
at the disposal of the Marshals, and detach-
ments are to be sent at once to New Orleans
and other points. The government announces
that it is resolved to give security to all per-
sons, white or black.

The PRESIDENT AND HIS FRIENDS. Every
step that the President now takes is of un-
usual interest, and is judged almost wholly in
respect to the third term aspirations he is be-
lieved to possess. The silence which General
Grant maintains upon this important question
compels the public to seek for its solu-
ton in his own acts and in the
movements of his political supporters.
Strong confrma ton that he is candidate for
denomination is given in our letter from
White Sulphur Springs to-day. The au.
thority is produced for the statement, and i,
challenges denial. The President cannot
long continue his silence when his friends
declare that he has authorized them to work
for the extension of his Presidential rule.

POLICE JUSTICE IN Trouble An eIam-
pie OF how thoroughly justice is sometimes
blindfolded in our police courts is furnished
by the case brought yesterday before Judge
Donohue. Police Justice frankly admitted
that he had signed warrant for the arrest of
woman without knowing its contents trusting
to the assurance of the police that it was s'alf
right" 1t proved, however, to be all wrong,
and his offence is to be laid before the Grand
Jury. Judge Donohue made some severe and
sound comments upon the loose practice
which obtains in the police courts, and said
That he was satisfied that crime. was sustained
for its political and pecuniary assistance and
that for the sake Of illegal revenue panel houses
and policy shops were tolerated. If this is a
case of the kind the Investigation should be
prompt and thorouRh.

DARING HIGHwAY ROBBERY.


Mr.. G. J. Davis, United States Cora-
missioner and Register of Bankruptcy,
returning homo with his wife to his
residence in Cheltenhan, on Friday
night, was stopped by two highway
men and robbed. He had left his
brother-in-law's residence on Lindell
avenue in his carriage, travelling by
the direct Rock Spring and Clayton
road. On reaching tho middle of tho
bridge over the River des Peres,. at
the Kings highway, between seven
aud eight o'clock, two men came sud
denly out from the shadows and Or
dered them to "halt" All in the good
old style of Turpin and Claude Duval.
Gae quickly seized the horses brides,
presenting his revolver at the head of
the negro driver, while the other as
quickly presented himself at the door
of the carriage, with a demand for
their money and valuahles, which de-
nand was enforced by the aid OF an
uncommonly ugiy-looking six-shooter.
Mr.. DaTis at first thought the men
were drunk, and directed the driver to
60 on; but in this he. was quickly un.
deceived by the fellow saying: ':Stop,
or I'll shoot you" Mr.. Davis gave
hiIa his pocket diary, whicl: contalned I
small amount, some three or four
dollars, but the robber demanded his
wat ch. This was worth between 800
and $500, and was also given after
some demur. The same rascal then
demanded what money and valuables
Mrs. Davis had about her. The lady
gave eli the change she had in her pos
session. which was fortunately not
more than three dollars or SO. After
klatc ~
fellow returned tao pocket diary to
Mr.. Dacia, ct his request, but coolly
expressed bis serious disappointment
ct not obtaining moro booty, as nc had
fully expected. Mr.. Davis explained
that the reason for not having more
money ii his possession was that be
"a that 70 occur for the past six years,
and SO he preferred not carrying any
thing Of value with him.
TIE robbers then suffered the plun-
dered party to proceed on their way,
rejoicing IS to their safety. but full OF
re1rots for the watch. One of the
scourdrels was an Irishman between
25 and 30 years af age. and t.le other
an American from IS to % years old.
Ono OF them went through the pockets
of the darkey. but failed to find the
only bit OF fractional current.y-25
cents--he had with him. Imme liately
Mr.. Davis gave i: formsti II of the dc, :
ing outrage et the leurest station, and
the mounted police were sent c,gt in
search of the robbers. All efforts mp
TO this time, however, have been un-

this IS row changed, ard it will soon
be necessary, according to @ German
paper, 20 relieve tho rapidly increaaing

der8round railways, for the police are
almost unable TO cope with the exjeen-
cies OF the case. It Is calculated that

peaiency, OF using dogs for purposes
