The Stock Law.

We have been asked by some Of
our readers To discuss the qucs
ton of "Fence or no Fence in the
columns Of our paper. This is q
subject which our readers, especi-
ally the farmers, are more capable
of discussing than we are, there
fore we prefer leaving it to them.
The question has also been asked
US also, whether or not the Police
Jury have the authority TO make
q law that would be binding on
the people, prescribing how FEM
ces should be built, aud whether
or not stock shoull be permitted
TO run at large. Without having
made an extensive investigation OF
the law on this subject We are in
clined to think that the Legisla.
ture has conferred on them the iu-
risdiction TO pass all such laws.
This is q very interesting qucs-
ton, and bids fair to become one
OF the most vital questions e8alt-
ing our parochial government.
we know nothing Of the views of
our Police Jury on this subject,
butthink it would be we'll for the
turner's 70 have ! few friendly
discussions through our papers on
this subject.

fact sooner or later, therefore
the people Of this country would

time is not far distant in the his.

put their stock behind q good,
strong fence, and turn their cult

are a great many people, especial.
ly on the state and county lines,
that a fence law would work a
hardship on for q time, but my
opinion is, that it is not as bad as
person would imagine.
Our prejudices help us greatly
when we want 70 oppose anything
especially if it is something Tbs,
appeared impractible in the past.
The time hes been in the h:sto.
nv Of this county when We could
better afford to fence our crops in
than we could TO fence our stock
in, but that time has passed. In
the frat place the range for our
stock has failed so materially shat
we cant keep our stock OF Of our
farms. The ale continually p.owl

coming almost intole.able. Men
can keep their stock inside easier
than they can keep them outside.
In the second place, the timber
has failed. There is not timber
enough on many farms in this par
ish to refence them again. My
object is not to excite the people
on the subject Of the fence law,
but to stir up their minds and get
them to thinking about the mat

Judge Halls Construction of the
law.

| There IS considerable comment
growing out offs ruling made b.
Judge Hall, in Desota parish re-
Gently, during a preliminary trial
of a murder case. 1t seems that
two men, Jones and Riggs, were on
trial for killing a man by the
name of Shackelford and in
substance the following facts were
proved: Riggs, who was not an
officer, undertook to seize, under a
writ issued by the justice Of the
peace. Il horse in the possession of
Shackelford. He met Shackelford
AMI Jones, some where on the road,
but as ShackelEord denied owning
the horse, the writ was not served
nor the horse taken into the pos
session of Riggs. While the three
men were riding along together,
Shackelford spurred his horse and
attempted to escape and Riggs
ordered him to stop. n his re-
fusing to halt, Riggs commanded
Jones, who had q Winchester rifle,
to shoot when Jones opened fire
and killed Shaekelford, who was
trying to prevent the seizure Of
bis horse by the supposed officers.
The Desota De.nOo.ut. says:
Judge Hall ruled that the par
ties were excusablc Tor shooting
the fleeing man as he has no right
to run, evidently believing the
men were officers, and that released
them from Jail under an appear
ance bond of $500" It seems to
US that the judge gave a forced
and unnatural construction Of the
law touching such cases. Had
these men been officers clothed
with authority and were endeav-
oring to ares, Shackelford for
some feliny committed, or had
they seized his horse and he was
trying TO remove it out of der
reach, under common law juris-
prudence, which has been adopted
in this state in criminal matters,
they would have been eScusable
in shooting him. But in this Case
no seizure had been made, and we
do not think there is any law in
this state that would justify or ex.
cuse an officer in killing a human
being under such circum STAGES.
If sheyiffs and constaoles had that
much authority, all they would
have to do would be to point a
pistol at a man and his property
would be thrown in sight, under
the penalty Of death.
Apropos to the above, we think
the practice of most officers in
making arrests and serving papers
with a brace Of pistols about
them, a detestable one, and that
they have no more right to carry
weapons or shoot their fellow men
than any other individuals.

Now, it God commissions his
people to go forward, or be in any
of their moves; the combined
trickcry of the world could not
hinder it for a moment; and mo
weapon formed against them would
prosper and every enemy would
be made to bow in obcsience to
them. Those who preceded us
in the vineyard of the Lord; those
early christian fathers, who had
70 witness before the Pagan world
and who passed through horrid
Affections, we're not found uttering
Legislative bowls with petitions,
and memorials seeking Legislation
to extend and promote strict
christianity. Those early British
and Sermon reiormers, who
snatched the torch of truth, anu
lighted up the pure doctrines Of
the cross, which all the might of
the Eomish power could not ex
tinguish, were not found around
the Roman courts, court;ug the
favor Of Roman Rulers. Those
spiritual giants of the sixteenth.
seventeenth and eighteenth centu-
ries, who were bold enough, holy
enough, and fis'ateyested enough,
to dcspisc the pompous rights of
a Legislature Hierarchy, were not
found attempting to organize po-
litical parties, to espousc their
cause, and promote their doctrines,
by human legislation. But the
spirit of their prayers and suppl
cations, was to be delivered from
the tyranny Of a religion support
ed by human law.
My final proposition is, that the
church is to he distinct from all
human organizations, and is in no
way dependant upon human legis.
lation for the promotion of its doc.
trincs.
II we would understand the ma.
turc of this distinclness, the Re
deemcr explains it clearly. He
says his people are not Of the
world. even as he is not of the
world. Jesus then is the model
of our separation from the world,
and he has left Us an example
that We should follow his steps.
Is there not fearful danger aris-
ing from attaching it to worldly
mt sims, and customs and laws?
Do you not believe that. a grand
line of demark;.:ion between the
church and poll; cs o. the country
ought toex'st? Aud if SO, how Can
we expect tbe Divine influence to
rest upon our efforts, il We main
