From the Besnuda (Wcst India)Advocate, June a9]
A brutal and cowardly attack las been
made upon the United States Consul here:
The news of It did not reach us sufficiently
early to furnish our readers with an account
of the transaction last week, though it oc-
Cured before our last issue. 1t appears that
a gang Of fellows, representing themselves as
belonging TO the Florida, but, we are well as.
eured, having no sort OF authority or recogni-
ton from the gentlemanly and excellent men
who officer that vessel, presented themselves
at the American Consurs on1 Monday week,
and after few preliminary nonsenses pro-
Gee1ed to what ne ca1lat home pitch into him.
lie defended himself as best he might; and
fortunate it was for him that our boy called
on him at that critical moment, as he was not
very far from being throttscd. Our boy sum-
moned the police. who were upon the scene
Of action in double-auick time, and hard
light they had Of 1t securing the prominent
malrfactor.
lei us ask whether we are living in the
British Empire? It is the boast of English
men that the persons of Ambaas adors, Con-
snla. Ec., are sacred, and that British power
nrofects them: but this ia certainly an ex-
ceptiopl case. What was our Lieut.. Gov
ernor about y-sure1y the least that the hon
or Of the British nation demanded was a
sentry.
Thus ont by one is England adding to the
long score of outrages Jet to be settled.

HoLLowAYs PILLs.-Medical Excellence.
TO purify both solids and fluids composing
the human body, to cleanse without weaken.
ing, and stimulate without irritating, any tor
pid organ to confirm each regular, and cor
rect each faulty, function, are the merits
claimed for Holloway's Pills. And how won
dsrfully they display these qualities is expe-
rienced by multitudes. who voluntarily record
the cures this purifying medicine has effected.
To the so-called bilious, these Pills are espe-
cially serviceable, as they promote the secrc-
ti,n Of pure bile, and hasten its direct passage
to and through the bowels. Holloway's Pills
have proved themselves the greatest blessings
to thousands laboring under complication
Of nervous and hypocondriacal symptoms

u By the way, an anomaly, in the shape
of Copperhead Uuion League. is said to ex-
list in Tumwater, in which the Territorial
Scribe and his Public Printer are chief cooks

base so often as to get kicked out Of the ranks
of all parties, they have taken new tack,
which may possibly keep the remainder of
their official terms. We commend the plan
