An a)tercat>ou. took plaee last night at a proraiueut puhlie ' plaee helween two partiea. The »ttacking partv waa eom- , po8ed of a eouple of A;uericau i naval ofticers anJ three loeal ; gentleraen among whoiu a certaiu i governraent oAieiai was verr prorainent. The defendant side consi?ted simply of two officers frora H. 1) M. Hyacinth. In spite of the uumeneal superiority of the attackiog parly the £ng)isbmen he)d the field. If rtinforees had arrived it is doubtfuI i£ any j of the five Americaus wou!d have got away with bruises only. The poliee was sent for and an eye-wit-uess declares that the goverument cffioial impRcated in the row ordered the poliee officer io "arrest those d—English, we five are Amer;c»ns.” The officer had more sense than is oontained in the promioent legs of the oAieial and simply dispened the combatants. —An invitation by tbe £nghshmen to their five adverstriee to cv»me out a mde from town and reoeive a sonnd thra8hing„was not reaponded h'.—It would in tl e future be a good idaa for tbe government to have a eiring on their young pets and not allow them to get llawaii mixed into internalional o<>mplioationa.
