Resisting the Police.

On Tuesday negro man raised
row in the street, greatly to the an.
noyance of passers-by, the polico was
called and went to arrest him but the
negro resisted. The police called to
his assistance some by-standors, and
the negro was locked up. Just after
he was put in the guard house party
of bis friends assembled around the
guard house door and threatened to
take the prisoner out by force. This
threat brought to the spot several
whites, who wore prepared for the on.
set, but the negroes declined to 20 any
farther. We advise the colored peo.
pie to desist from such threats, as they
will bring on disturbances that will be
serious in tho end. If they come to
town and raise disturbances they will
be put up without doubt.
