Regular proceedings are recognized in all the states in pursuance of which the officers of the law may be authorized by a warrant duly issued, to enter private premises and search for property or the evidence of crime, but a search warrant will be issued only after some form of proof to a magistrate or other judicial officer that there is just occasion for such search and seizure; and the proofs and warrant issued in pursuance of it, must indicate the object of the search, which must be an object recognized by law, and the premises to be searched must be described with some particularity. A warrant not thus describing the premises to be searched, and the object, is called a general warrant, and under our system of government is unauthorized. The officers of the law may also be authorized by warrant for the arrest of a person designated therein to enter private premises for the purpose of making such arrest, and in making an arrest for the commission of a crime they may seize property procured by means of the crime charged, or weapons which have been used in the commission of the crime, or which tend to furnish evidence of its commission.
