ENCOUNTER WITH BURGLARS. - Be-
tween ten and eleven o'clock last night,
Mr.. VIM. Murphy, an employee in Har-
der's boot and shoe mandatory in
Madam vincent's Building, discovered
four men whom, he supposed to be bur-
glars, in the salesroom of the establish
ment. Mr.. Murphy had been spending
the evening in another part of the city
and had just returned to the shop and
was entering by the front door when he
discovered the intruders. The party on
seeing him ran to the back door and
thence into the alley to the rear Of the
building Mr.. Murphy followed them and
on reaching the alley was shot at by one
of the fugitives, and knocked down, as he
thinks, by a slungshot or brass knuckles.
The darkness of the night prevented his
recognizing the party. An entrance was
effected to the establishment through the
transom over the front door.

MIDNIGHT ASSAULT.
A Citizen sIungshotted by u
Negro ON south Street.

Along that portion Of South street in
habited by negroes, who divide their
time between the Loyal Leagues and
night prowling, 1t has become absolutely
unsafe for a white nan to pass alone az
ter sunset Last night within a stones
throw Of the spot where officer Sweat was
was shot down week or two ago by four
negro robbers, another Of those outrages
occurred which have conspired to arouse
feeling Of alarm and insecurity
throughout the community, and which
have done much toward giving Memphis
the unenviable disrepute which attaches
to her name abroad. Between eleven
and twelve o'clock, Mr.. Peter Walsh, a
highly respectable citizen, was passing
along South street, near the corner Of
Causey, when he was fell upon by an
unknown African, beaten with slung-
shot within an inch Of his life and robbed
Of purse which, fortunately, happened to
contain only few dollars, in change.
After being thus dealt with, he
was left insensible in the street by his
assalants, who supposed him TO be dead,
and here he was found by an officer Of
the lower district, an hour or two after
the outrage, and conveyed to the second
stationhouse, where he was kindly cared
for. His injuries are of most painful,
though it is hoped not of dan.
gerous character. How long shall
the encouragement OF negroes in idleness
and vagabondancy be tolerated. Just
so long as it is, such outrages as the
above may be expected. This is by no
means the first time that citizen has
been murderously attacked on the high.
way for the paltry sum of fifty cents or
a dollar that he happens to have on his
person.
