This article deals with the Police, which in practice was and continues to be the most tangible state institution for a large part of the population, since it is through their action that many citizens have contact with the public power, reinforcing the assumption that the State has brute force as a mechanism of power. In Pernambuco, throughout the nineteenth century, the Police Corps varied in its organization, contingent and distribution of detachments throughout the various regions of the province. But in the period from 1864 to 1870, this variation gained an extra component: the outbreak of the Paraguayan War. In 1865, with the beginning of the war, there was a need for a military reorganizationaimed at moving troops to the front - a situation that also involved the Police Corps. As a portion of its staff volunteered to participate in the war effort, the provincial government had to create a provisional public force to continue the police service in Pernambuco. Counting on the documentary contribution of the annals of the Provincial Legislative Assembly and the collection of provincial laws, under the custody of the Arquivo Estadual Jordão Emerenciano (APEJE), this article aims precisely to analyze how the Police Corps was organized in the early years of the aforementioned war in an attempt to understand its relations with the State and society in the period in question.

In the 1870s, some laws led to a reorganization of the police service in the province of Pernambuco. Among them was Imperial Law No. 2395 of September 10, 1873, which altered the organization of the National Guard and prohibited it from exercising police functions. This institution was created in 1831 to guard the constitution, the principles of freedom and independence, as well as to ensure compliance with the laws, the preservation of order and public tranquility and the maintenance of the integrity of the Brazilian empire. It should also act by assisting the army in defending the borders and coast. (BRAZIL, 1837) However, in the Pernambuco province, and in other provinces, as the historiography shows, the “citizen militia” was essential to the smooth running of the police service - especially in the distant interior regions, where the detachments of the Corp of Police were insufficient or even nonexistent. Therefore, in order to try to fill the institutional void left by the National Guard's prohibition to carry out policing activities, the provincial deputies created by law No. 1130 of April 30, 1874, a new police apparatus for the Pernambuco province: the Local Guard. Thus, this article aims to understand the processes that led to the constitution of this police force: an institution organized without military structure and barracks and which, from 1874, was responsible for maintaining public tranquility in the cities located in the Pernambuco backwood.
