Several prominent people here have for

manufacturing sentimental protests for North

trying to make martyrs of themselves. It
cannot be done at this late day. There have
been too many bleeding negroes and ostra-

believed by fair minded people.

A WHITE MAN DRIVEN FROM
HIS HOME.
THREATENED BY NEGROES.

W. H. 'Henricks, white man, who lives
near the corner of Franklin and Perdido
streets, came to the BULLETIN Office last night
to seek protection from a band of armed
negroes, who, he stated, threatened to kill
him the first time they caught him in the
vicinity of his home.
They caught him last night in grocery
near his house, where he had gone to make q
few purchases for his family, drew weapons
upon him, aud it was only through flight that
he escaped alive.
The reason that Henricks assigns for this
deadly persecution is the fact that he is a
Democrat, while the negroes are Republicans
Henricks, after having escaped from the
mob, came to our Office and requested our aid
to convey him home safely to the bosom of
his family, as he feared another attack should
they see him around the neighborhood. As
this persecution has been going on for the last
six or seven days, and as there were sixteen
or seventeen armed negroes against him, it
was deemed advisable to send Henricks home
under an escort.
We hope that the like outrages will be
stopped Immediately, and that strict justice
will be melted out to all parties who participate
in such proceedings.

GEN. De TRoBh1AND UNDER KEL1oaG's
ORDERS, The New Orleans correspondent of
the New York Tribune telegraphs to that paper
of the 5th inst:
Gen. De Trobriand acknowledged to Mr..
Wilt, Speaker Of the House, that he had been
ordered by Gen. Emory to report with his
forces, estimated at eleven hundred, to Kel-
logg; that he was acting under Kellogg and
should obey all his orders. In pursuance Of
one of these orders, Gen. De Trobriand en-
tered the State House with sixty soldiers and
subsequently, elected from the floor of the
Legislature four Conservative members.
These four members were from the four
parishes which the Returning Board had re-
ferred to the Legislature. The House was
legally authorized, in fact, in duty bound to
act on them. 1t did SO according to the
known results of the returns, and the conse-
quence was that Kellogg ordered the military
to eject the members thus admitted.

10 the hultor OF tnu Leukcfs
In the Appeals report of the proceed
ings of the Board Of Education of tue
18th inst. appears this paragraph:
THAT considerate and enlightened body
known as the Peoples Protective Union
sent in a communication telling the
Board how to run the schools. Ii is
very modest ia its language, only telling
the Board what to do and what not to
do" Nov, 1t must be conceded even BY
a paper so highly and universally in.
dorsed as the APPEAL that the body of
men of whom it 30 scornfully speaks is
composed of many of the very best and
most successful men of business in the
city Of Memphis and many are men
than whom there are not more intelli.
gent citizens in this or any other city.
Rightly viewed and managed, nothing
could be of greater benefit to the oom-
munity than just such an organization
as this, as its name proclaims it, THE
Peoples Protective Union. Ii is cer-
tain that for years the cry has been
peculation, mismanagemeht and fraud
10 every department of our city govern
ment. The Appeal claims that the
| Board Of Education is commissioned By
the whole people, and calls the Protect
i've Union "a set number Of citizens. !"
The Union is certainly composed of
those very people who have commits
stoned the Board Of Education, as well
as every man who swellsi in a little brief
authority in our city Offices, and so far
from being a set number of men it is
the object and end of the association
that every man in this town who
has his W and the interests of the
city at heart should become a mem
Der of the Protective Union, and thus
retain the power in the hands of the
people themselves, to control those to
whom they intrust the interests of the
city. The Board of Education undoubt-
eddy comprises as good men as could be
selected, and as competent, but they
have yet to prove their infallibility, and
until they do SO are certainly not beyond
instruction as to the will of the people.
1t is certain that the Protective Union
had its origin in the States necessity for
reform and retrehchment, and like every
thing having for its origin the public
good, involves much labor and no pay.
If we trust to the columns Of the Appeal
and the numerous Endorsements Of its
policy and practice, which some one of
its industrious editors is seemingly con-
tinually employed in getting up, that
paper is the only thing in Memphis that
may be called infallible. No matter
what happens or don't happen, it is only
necessary to refer to some former issue
to prove that though all else may be
wrong, the APPEAL tit must always be
in capitals is always right. Friends of
the Appeal, let us do justice though the
heavens fall. and aid in making the Pro,
tective Union What It was intended to
be-tbe power which will put TO fight
the v%ultnres that now feed and fatten on
the body polite. JUsTIcE.

THE BOARD OF HEALTH.

Beard Of Health, rendered their resigna-
tons as such to the Mayor yesterday.
The May r sent a special message on
the subject to the General Council last
night, in which be paid these gentlemen
a high and well deserved complimentfo for
their ability and unceasing efforts in the
discharge Of their duties. He declined
to accept their resignation, as did the
Council 1t is earnestly to be hoped
that they will reconsider their action
and consent to serve for the public good.
1t is true they are but poorly compenI
stated, and that the Board has not been
provided with the means and facilities
essential to its efficiency; but the exist
ence Of q Board as a permanent %institu-
ton has been urged by the LEDGER for
years, and at length become universally
admitted. 1t is better to retain these
gentlemen, if possible, and have the
benefit Of their experience, rather than
to induce others to accept their places
