"Our Friends Over the Border"

The short article following is taken
from the Louisville Journal. We are
afraid our friends abroad arc magnify
ing the perils of the condition in Ten
nessce somewhat, and thus unintention-
ally giving color and comfort to the hue
and cry raised by the radicals
"The state of affairs in Tennessee has
reached that point where it is best to
use plain words and few of them. The
radicals are now getting up war in
Tennessee for their own base purposes.
They mean to force the people of Ten
nessce into an attitude of self-defense
by assaults that are malignant, brutal,
and cowardly. This is their game, and
we propose to meet it half way: for we
are resolved that the truth shall be told
If it takes half our available space the
balance of the summer. The people of
Tennessee have been traduced long
enough. They have been set upon long
enough.
The radicals, then, may as well I'M
derstand. first as last, that there has got
to be an end both of lying and bully
ing. Henceforward they will do well
TO look to their legislation. The out
side world now looks on, The people
of the Northwest are beginning to be
aroused. No more villainy can be per-
pctrated in secret. What is done now
will be done in open day and before the
eyes of those whose lips are not scaled,
and whose hands will not be idle. We
shall publish all that reaches us that
bears responsible signature, and we
beg our friends throughout the State, in
which the Jounol circulates almost as
largely as in Kentucky, to send us news
of passing events. promptly and relia-
bly,, and to consider us a part of their
own flesh and blood. equally interested
with themselves in the preservation of
the peace and liberties of Tennessee,
not less than the peace and liberties of
the whole country.

ground to suspect the party arrestedi but II
no felony was committed by any one, and a
priv ,ie Individual arrest without warrant,
such arrest 10 illegal, though an ofheer would
! be justified II he had acted upon Informal

Justice Drury, iu Rohan w. Savior, Cush.
Ing, 2s5, says the public safety and the due ap-
prehension Of criminals, charged with heinous
(feloniousl offences, impcriously require that
such arrests should be made without warrant
by officers OF the law. As to the right apper-
tanning to private individuals to arrest without
q warrant, 1t is a much more restricted Au.
thority, and IL confined to cases OF the actual
guilt OF the party arrested, and the arrest can
only be justified BY proving such guilt, but as
TO eonstables and other peace officers acting
officially, the law clothes them with greater
authority, and they are held to be justified II
they act In making the arrest on probable and
reasonable grounds for believing the party to
be guilty OF a felony peace officer
may. therefore, justify an arrest on reasona-
Bile charge Of felony without q warrant, al
though Il should afterwards appear that no
felony had been committed, but q private indi.
yldusl cannot. See Samuel vs.. Payne, Doug
X. $50, Hale =. u. 50, 81, 50. We think the
true rule OF law Is laid down in the case Of Ro-
han vs.. Savior, and the ruling OF the Justice at
the Circuit must be sustained.

den Of the city jail, charged with committing
rape, by Mary q. Payne, on one Mary L. Nc
Gee, was disposed Of yesterday afternoon by
Justice Walter, 10 tho following decision:
"1n reviewing the evidence given In this
case, although II discloses many facts that are
disgusting and reprehensible, l cannot per-
ceive 1t to be my duty, as an examining mag.
istrate, to hold the accused. The charge is the
commission Of a rape on the body OF Mary L.

Intercourse with the accused. This will, per-
ploycd at the jail Interfering with prisoners
