q
A nisssHrI Criminal Given Up to 0ficers Of
the Law.

Some weeks ago a white man who gave
his name IS Albert Brackets, was arrested
for the disturbance OF an entertainments
at the theater. The next morning he was
tried by the Recorder for q m-isdemeanOr,
and sentenced to pay a small fine. The
money not being forthcoming, he was de-
livered up to the tender meTcies OF the
chain gang, and set to work. On the 18th
inst. ne escaped from b gang and jump
ed IN the river, whence he was rescued by
officers Marsk and Roach. The police
having information which led them 10 in
fer that the prisoner was not "all right"
held on to him after his term was out,
and sent a description of him to various
places. Among those to whom this noti-
tication was sent, was The sheriff OF Penn
iscott county, Missouri, from whom the
police had received q circular describing
one John Lewis, who a few months ago
murdered one Charles Henry, brother OF
a Mr. Henry, of this city, and which de-
scription the prisoner exactly hIfed. Du-
ring the delay in hearing from the circu-
lars, a party went to the stat~iOn-bouse and
completely identified b prisoner as the
man wanted, and thes herin of Pemiscott
county, who was already thinking about
coming down here, was informed of the
fact.
Yesterday he arrived here, attended by
q posse consitotus, and armed with arequi-
sition from the Governor of Missouri.
On seeing this party approach his cell,
Brscksn, who had hitherto maintained
a stoical indifference. seemed to give way.
and during the day admitted that he was
the man wanted by the Missouri authori-
ties. The sheriff, having complied with
all the necessary forms, was allowed to
depart with his man on board the steamer
Belle Memphis foi New Madrid. There
is not a shadow of doubt that this is the
murderer wanted, and we hope that he
may have justice done him.
