NEGRO SHOT BY AN OFFIC ER.

Yesterday about noon, a negro was shot by
one of the special policemen of this city, named
Jerry Pierce. The circumstances, as near as
we could CLEAN them, were as follows
. 1t appears that a negro, who was lately dis
charged from the q. S. service, recently sent
to his family here letter containing 5000, the
carrier being the negro yesterday shot. The
negro who sent the money by the other, allie
ges that, upon his arrival home, he as cer tanned
that but $3.50 was in the letter when delivered
to his family, and that the letter bore unmis'
taxable evidence Of having been broken open
prior to its falling into the hands of the proper
parties, and yesterday forenoon he called upon
police nan Pierce to arrest the negro on the
charge Of larceny Accordingly Pierce went
to the house OF a negro named Brown, on 18th
street, where the negro was. Upon the negro
seeing the officer he stock to his heels. -
Pierce followed in hot pursuit. and finding that
he could not overtake him, fired his revolver
after him. The ball struck the negro in the
back and lodged under the skin of the aldo
men. Pierce says he did not expect the bal
fred would reach the negro, as he was con-
siderable distance from him, but it did, and the
wounded man is not expected to survive his in.
juries. The matter will undergo judicial in.
yestigation, and we have no opinion to offer.
