POLICEMEN.
Their Bondsmen Can Not Be
Held Liable for I'M
priSonment.

A case which affects every member of
the Police Department of this city was de-
cided Monday last by Judge Shackelford
Miller in favor of the policemen. Some
months ago member of the department
arrested man for a minor offense who
subsequently brought suit for false arrest
against the officer. There have been a
number of like suits during the past few
years, and IN several instances the bonds
men got the warm end of the decision.
After the argument had been finished
Judge Miller decided in favor of the de-
PENDANT. This decision means great
deal to the policemen of the city. In
rendering his opinion Judge Miller stated
that the policemen were only required to
give bond for their good behavior and
honorable conduct while members of the
Police Department, and that bondsmen
can not be held responsible for arrests.
The case was bitterly fought, and the de-
cision will have the effect of stopping
petty prosecution of the members Of the
police force for a performance of their
duty.

man withdrawn and that body upon
which the nation relied for its independ-
ence dissolved forever.
That was the last meeting of the Vol
unteers. Lord Charlemont never called
another meeting and they dwindled
away by degrees. The sudden and ar
bitrary dissolution of the Volunteers by
Charlemont has been variously explained
some explaining that the British Gov
ment had an understanding with Charlie
mont-others laying it to his weak fear
of an open quarrel-his desire for the
tranquility of the country.
Lecky, the English historian, gives it as
his opinion that had that reform bill in
troduced by Flood at the instance of the
Volunteers, passed in that Irish Parlia-
ment the Catholics would soon have
shared to the full in its benefits the blood
of '9S never been called for, nor the in
famous Union consummated. II was a
double triumph to bigotrv and to the
British Government to reject that bill
and dissolve that Volunteer Convention.
