BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS

ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE THE DIRECTOR
• OF THE " COURTIER .BELGE."
Bitussr!.s., MAY 31.—Yesterday, towards night fall, the
nroprietor of the Coltrrier Beige was attacked on a sudden
several persons, stationed at the outer Boulevard bf the
Observatory; they were armed with' sticks, with' which they
•epeatedly struck.liim ; :he fortunately parried the first strokes,
but one of the murderers i:eiching him with the ferrule of his
:tick, inflicted en enormous wound below the eye, 'which
nearly blinded him. Seeing that they aimed at- his life, he
,tepped backward, and prepared to defend himself seriously,
pith a weapon which put the life of the assailants in
his power. But a sentiment more noble than revenge with-
held him ; and thinking less of his own danger than that of
.those persons whom he perfectly recognised, he could not pro-
,. fit by his advantage, either by attacking them in his turn,- or,
calling the guard of the Shaerbech gate, which witnessed this
attack; he preferred ,letting them go, and proceeded on his
way, not to, complain to justice; as the numerous witnesses of,
his cowardly attempt would have
,persuaded him to do, but to
.vrite to us a couple of lines requesting us to make-these per-
ions easy, who, he says, are sufficiently unhappy to carry on
such a trade for other parties, while they are obliged to keep
themselves concealed on this account. He adds, that he..has
caused an action for defamation against the Radical to be
withdrawn, since he learns that the responsibility would fall
on them.
All this is very Christian-Mx—very exemplary, if you
please ; but public opinion cannot be thus satisfied. We ad-
-mire-Vs generosity,ltif certainly we sherd not have advised
it, and we cannot approve of it. Courder Beige.
A report has come to us from England, that the marriage
of the Princess Victoria to the second son of the Piince of
Orange is decided upon.
ATHENS, MAY 4.—News has been received from Paros, that
six persons have died there of the plague. The disorder was

and who had stolen infected goods, and sold them.
