her you must send for more force, or
order your brig to come along side and
fire into me, until am killed, holding
the ensign halliards in my hands. -
During the conversation, I held the
log book in my papers quicker, he said
to me-'sThe reason why you cannot
show me the papers is because you
have sold your yessel-I was told So"
It is not true; if my vessel was sold
| would not have the American flag
up; I nor my crew would not be on
board now" Vexed to find that he
could not succeed in any way, he then
said-"Well, I will go in the cabin
and make search all over" Immedi
ately l placed the American flag before
the cabin door, which was held tight
by myself, the mate and the two of my
men; and | observed to him that he
could not "step into the cabin without
tramphng on the United States flag"
His answer was, that cit made no DIFF
ference to him." and he instantly rush
ed into the cabin, followed by his Off
Ger and negro, who trampled the flag
under their feet in presence of my
crew. Then ! id-"Boys, our flag
is insulted; it will cost dear to the
English nationi'' They all came on
deck, and the captain told me to let
him have my log-book. Ny answer
was-"Never! and as long as I have
a drop Of blood in my veins no British
SUBJECT would take it away from me-"
Then he observed that he had "the pow
err to obtain it by force;' and at the
same time he ordered one of his ne
groes to take the book from me, who
obeyed the order given him. stepp-
ed back, pushing the negro, and called
on my mate and crew to assist me, and
to arm themselves with handspikes and
knives, and be ready to strike, in case
the British officer gave new order
At this the British officer turned pale,
and with the voice of a coward, SAID to
me--Captain stop your men; do not
wish to see any blooodshed or butche-
ry;;" then nothing took place. He
wanted to go into the cabin to make
second search. | observed to him that
''my papers were on board in my trunk"
and showed him the key. He said
-"Let me have the key,or will take
it by force" My answer was" Have
you forgotten what took place for the
log-book before. Do you wish to be-
gin AGAIN." Then he said-"I will
! go in the cabin and have the trunk
broken open" | gave him no answer.
He sent his officer and negro to act.
followed them with my mate. They
broke the trunk and took the papers
out Of it. | observed to the officer
that had money in my trunk, gold
watch, &c. He made no answer and
we all went on deck. He handed the
papers to his Captain. | then told him
-"Now, you are satisfied with your
chef d@urre, please to give me my pa
pers, as wish to sail tomorrow" y
"No, sir, I will keep them with me,
and pocket them and go off," | then
said to him GAS long as my papers are

u IMPURITY OF BLOOD causes pain
aud occasions disease upon that part Of the
body which from any cause NAV be weakest.
Thus in persons whose blood is impure, should
they have cold, the impure matter would
settle upon their lungs, and consumption be
the trouble; so with other affections. All
trouble is saved BY using the BRANDRETH
PILLS, which cannot injure, and which can
not be overdone. Only use them in the com
mencement of any disease. use them in full
doses and Won will be up and well, while
those who are too wise to take such simple
medicine, are bed ridden, or premuturely end
their days. The Branelreth Pills are only be-
ginning to be appreciates; they are found to
never deceive. they are the only internal
medicine required in this climate.
BE careful Of pretended universal purgatves,
which cannot be used without iniurv to the
body as Brandreths Pills can. What are
they? Are they not limitations Of the Bran
dreih Pills recommended in advertisements

not.
The Brandreth Pills gipe strenth for weak
ness-they are liked best by those who have
taken the most of them. Dir. Brandreth can
give personal reference to thousands who have
been restored from bed OF sickness by their
use, when every other mems had proved en-
tirely unayaling. These cases are continual
" occurring in this city and in every part OF
the Union. Get Brandreth's Pills if you are
not perfectly healthy, and they will restore
you-ifmedcne can do it-becanse they ex-

purity of the blood. and at the same tune the
body is strengthened by the operation OF this

Then Byundreth's Fegeta6is UaigerSal Pills

known to act benrfcaly on euerv part of the
body; being taken up by the chyie they pass
into the blood, which they purify; and it

those parts from the blood which were the
cause of inflammation or disease Of any kind.
Nothing is equal to Kidding the vitiated hu

Mr.. Bosanquet, after told him that the
brig was the Cyrus, of New Orleans,
and visited once by him by force, to
save himself the trouble to visit my
my vessel twice, and at the same time
asked him who he was, and to show
me a power from my government to
