Officers Read This.

We copy frnm the Yazoo Sentinel,
the excellent opinion of Judge
Wharton, IN the case of Il. III.
Shell, who shot and killed John
Irwin, while the latter was attempt
ing TO evade arrest for a miSde-
meanor.
Tue opinion is one of great itn-
porttnce to peace officers, who 80
constantly misapprehcnd the law
upon this question aud very often
indeed unwilllngly attempt to do
that which would be simple mur-
der. The opinion is as follows:
"The pOiut in the above case
was that an officer has no right to
Kill another when making an arrest
for a nisdemeanor unless the party
offers actual resistance. The fact
that he may be escaping simply,
will not justify the officer in taking
his life. When one has committed
felony and is attempting to es-
cape, the officer, in order to pre-
vent the escape may kill him aud
the law would justify him in the
act, but if the party is charged
with simply u misdemeanor the
law says it is better to let him es.
cape than to take his life. When
one charged with a msdemeanor
attempts to escape and the officer
shoots him with the intention of
killing him, he is guilty OF murder,
but if he shoots, not with the lnten-
tion of killing, he is guilty of man.
slaughter. A felony is an offense
punished with death or confine-
ment in the penitentiary; a misde-
meanor is an offense punishable by
fine or Imprisonment in the In
county Jail. 1t is not to be under
stood that an officer has no right
to kill u party charged with a mis-
demeanor, if such killing be neces.
sary to overcome resistance to the
officer making the arrest. The law
is that the officer has the right TO
pursue and If the party should turn
upon the officer and offer resistance
then if it be necessary to overcome
such resistance to kill, the officer
would be justified in killing, even
though the party is charged with
simply u misdemeanor.

THE LESSONS or THE STREET.


On the corners we may find them,
Or IN clusters here and there;
In the day time or the night time,
All along the thoroughfare
Standing idly and forget ting
They should earn the bread they eat,
Aud the many who are learning
All the lessons of the street.
In their homes is naught inviting;
Poverty aud want are there;
Wasting tlirsting ever
Serve to keep the cupbaARd barej
And the little babies wander
Ont of doors on toddliny feet,
Quick to learn the lessons taught them
Every hour upon the street.
Shame and Crime, their ready pupils,
Here of every age may find.
Sons of wealth and rank, to evil
And to idleness inclined
In the school Of vice progressing,
They with base-boru rogues compete,
Who have won a high distinction
From their training in the street
Maidens fresh in youthful beauty,
Cherished il the heart and home /;
Dearly loved ones-vain and thoughtless-
From the fireside choose to roam;
Knowing naught the many dangers
And disasters they may meet.
By their everyday attendance
On the lessons of the street.
Many life that started bIavely,
Full of promise, pride and zeal
Stirred within by holy passions
That the knavish never teel--
Has been overthrown in battle.
Leo to sure and swift defeat,
By the poison and pollution
OF the lessons of the street.
Oh, ye mothers, train your darlings
So to love their homes, that they
With the idle and the vicious
Will not ever 80 astray
With chain of strong affection
Bind them to the safe retreat
That their minds may not be tainted
By the lessons of the street.

I A thick carpet had lately bee

Wedge, the village carpenter, was
sent for to ease it.
At six O'clock, while he was al

with her children came down intt
the hall ready to welcome home
Mr.. Cary, who had been that day
to town.
Wedge, who was working inside
tho dining room, listened with as
tonistmeBt as he heard the shout
the children gave when their father
stepped out Of the carriage. He
saw also, through the door crack
that the two eldest had caught
hold of his hands, while young
one were olinging like little barna-

him along as if, once having got
him into their net, the meant, spi-

That the squire's return should

one could have persuaded him 9th
