MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS.

The military government inaugurated by
Gen Emory in accordance with orders from
Washington. is working in harmony with our
city authorities, and there was conference
Yesterday between Mayor Wilt, General
Brooke, Chief of Police Thomas Boylan and
Major Burke.
The understanding is, that the city govern
ment was not to be interfered with in any
way, but that Gen. Brooke will, in al! matte rs,
represent the State. He desire d the hiet Of
Police to request the members of the Police
Board as now constItut ID, to meet him as
soon as possible to confer on matter. pertain
ing to the maintenance Of peace and order in
the city.
He further intimated that he would assume
to represent the Lieutenant Governor, who is
ex-officio President of the board under the
metropolitan police law. The Chief of Police
was in tructed to keep such persons as might
be arrested for grave offeuses iD the Parish
Prisone
Major Burke conferred with Gen. Brooke in
regard to the transfer Of the arms ammunle
ton, ETC.. WHICH ndu ctLle INTO lHc P'sSeoSiou
OF the citizen soldiery, and was instructed to
have the arms, etc., which had been captured
turned over to the military authorities. The
number of arms to be turned in will be about
5000, not including those taken from the
Mississippi.
Everything IS progressing quietly and
smoothly, but it is known that the old Police
Board. or certain members thereof, are max
ing strenuous efforts to reorganize and form a
new metropolitan police force.
yesterday Mr.. Boylan, the Chief OF Po-
lice. was sent for by Gen. Brooke command
ing the United States forces. and now the pre-
sent Governor Of the State.
The interview which was &C some length,
resulted satisfactorily to both gentlemen, and
settles, to an extent, the question whether our
police will continue to patrol the streets
The General instructed Mr.. Boylan to con-
tinue the org lnizaton of his patrol force, and
added that he with his troops would give him
(Boylan every assis lance in his power TO keep
peace in the city precincts and preserve pub
lie property.
The natural conclusion, therefore, TO he
drawn from this is, simply, that the police
force under Boylan is now permanency.

They Want Troops.

The citizens OF Aberdeen Mississippi. are
anxious to have a detachment Of United States
rinc to the recent distribution Of the boys in
blue by that distinguished soldier, George Il.
Williams Attorney-G General OF the United
States the Examiner thus proclaims the de-
sire of the Aberdeenians:
While United States troops are being dis
tributed around through neighboring States.
we think that the powers that be might send
us few comp snies. Owing to the shortn-ss
of the harvest We can hardly hope for long
bushes, season, and if we could manage q
garrison of few companies. and have it pad
off here, it would be almost equal to an extra
crop.
We had garrison for year or two, an We
all found it 10 be such q good thing tn It We
were loath to give it up.

RIOT AT BAYOU SARA.
The Negroes Attack the Whites and are
Repulsed.
The People Call Upon New Orleans for
Aid. as the Blacks are being
Largely Reinforced.

A dispatch was received Thursday from
citizens of Bayou Sara to Gen. Emory, Gov.
NcEnery and Lieut.. Gov, Penn. giving the
alarming intelligence that large body of
armed negroes had attacked the town Of
Bayou Sara last night, and were temporarily
repulsed.
The citizens are poorly armed and call upon
the auth orities for troops, as the negroes are
being rapidly reinforced from surrounding
plantations, and are still menacing the town
There are only about one hundred white
men in Bayou sara able to perform military
duty, and as the blacks greatly outnumber
them, We can readily imagine the consterna-
ton and alarm felt by the people there
General Emory, Immediately upon the
receipt of the telegram dispatched
prominent citizens in Bayou Sara
to order the rioters to dispense. a surin,
restore order. Bayou Sara is situate in the
parish of West Feliciana, 100 miles above
New Orleans and 80 miles above Baton Rouge.
Before the war this parish was ore OF the
richest in the State, but since the war has
rapidly deteriorated by reason Of the I'M
mense preponderance of negroes.
A direct telegraphfc communication has
been interrupted by the negroes cutting the
wires. and hence all information Of the
trouble ust come via Woodville, which is a
distance of % miles from Bayou Sara and
connected there with by railroad.
No account has vet been received Of any
casualties, although there must have been
some bloodshed in the repulse Of the negroes
last night.
No mention is made Of the cause of the
trouble, but private letters received
here for several days past have spoken
sf tho turbulence and insoence Of the ne
groes. We think there can be no doubt
that the trouble has been p,ecipitated by ad-
vices rom Radical emissaries from New Or
leans, in order to create condition Of affairs
that would render the interference OF U. 5.
troops absolutely necessary.
The blow not only has come too late to
effect any good, but VII seriously damage
the Radical cause. Gen. Emory
we are glad to know, is deter
mined to check these outbrakes suddenly
aud if he has not troops enough at b $ dis
posal he can get any number OF volunteers
from our citizens who will start instantly tor
he scene of trouble.
