Supreme Court In Banco July Term 1879. S. Kiwaua (k) vs. Makce (k) Aor Harris, C. J., and McCully, J. Opinion l McCully, J. Mr. Justice Judi liJ D)t bit, Lein mtcreated. Thi ciwe comes hjr ai jral from the Interned!' arj Court of Onho, unl oriinallj from the Dis trict Court of Kwa, Oahu. The record of the District Court, trancl.ite.l into English, is that the I'laintifT clairua 1G dauiacfl for bis 8 horses running, or pasturing on Li land at Ilanaloa, feeding the s;raM of that land, continually from .Sor.teniher 5th, to March 12tb, 187'J. The cae wan heard March 27th and judgment given for the I'laintifT for $12 and costs. The fact that Defendant's animals were on PlaintifTs land for the time charged, without license, ii not in controtery, but the Defendant rIead that this action is barred bj an action and judgment between the same subject matter, on the 17th of March, and eu bin its the record of the District Court, which is substantially as follows: Kiwaha ) ts. District Court of Ewa. JIakue. ) March 17th, 1879. A trespass suit between Kiwaha, owner of land, and Makue, owner of animals, for the trespass (komohewa) of eight horses on Ilanaloa, on the 12th day of March, which hurt were lawfully impounded on the 13th of March. Judgment is gifen for the I'laintifT for two dollars and the costs of Court. It will be observed that the above record is in complete, in not Kitting furth the amount for which I'laintifT sued. We are not tarnished with the sumiuotis in this care, which might state the nature of the action more particularly, and in order to learn what was the issue in the first case and llic relation it may bear to the second, we rerun to such testimony as was presented. Wcdo this upon the principle that it might be a denial of justice in reviewing proceedings ol Dis trict Courts, vtl.erc it is alleged that there- was error of law, to confine our view to the very im perfect record which is generally kept by them. In the Intermediary Court, the same motion was made to diniis en the ground of res a J judicata, but the Magistrate's record was not then submit ted and the motion wan overruled. From the I'la in tiff's testimony, and the above incomplete records, it is made to appear that the land in qucetion came into I'laintifTs possession September Cth 1873. That there were then run ning thereon the Defendant's eight horses, as well as horses and mules belonging to several oth er persons. That about a week prior to March 12tb, the I'laintifT notified the Defendant and others to remove their stock and demanded $2 per head as a charge for pasturage up to that time. The Defendant refused to pay. On the 12th. the I'laintifT arrested the Defendant's ani mals and impounded them on the 13th. The oth er owners ol animals paid the demand of $2 per Lead, and it does not appear whether these ani mals were taken up, or payment made on the de mand. March 17th, the parties came before the District Court on the case above quoted. We are left to infer, that the proeecding was the one un der the Statute where the owner of impounded animals deposits the amount claimed, or a bond with the District Judge, who issues an order for the release from the round and afterwards tries the question of the legality of the impounding or of the amount of damage. Wc must conclude this was th ca.e before the Court, lor otherwise, the Plaintiffs demand would Lave been collected by the pound-keercr. In the Intermediary Court, Plaintiff's testi mony herein is as follows : After 1 arrested the Lorees, Makuc came and as Led bow much dau-.ag'i icr iieaJ, I saiJ $2 each, lie rcIu.cJ and I put animals iu the round. Case was tried and Statute damage awarded for single trespass. Then I brought action for trcsjas claiming pas turage, anil judgment was piven in my favor." Thus it up j cars that I'laintifT presented the same case in In action of March 17th, and in that of March 27th, er at least the latter covered everything except the trespass existing on the 12th of Jlarch, when the horses were taken up, and the first case ineludcd what was claimed in the record. We arc of opinion that the whole matter was, ir the Erst case, fx-fore the District Magistrate. L'ndi r the Plaintiff 's claim he Lad jurisdiction to consider the amount due lor u trespaM of a single day r t at had continued over several months and teriu.iiaird by impounding. The claim was for the pasturage during the time from Septem ber 7th to Jlarch 12th upon a guantum meruit, and tor this he awarded the I'laintifT lr all the horse two dollars, cr 20 cents each. II the I'laintifT were not ratirtied with this, he might have taken his ur teal, instead of which lie brings the second action. From the fact that the Magistrate gave him judgment again, and for nearly the amount claimed, it is probable that he refused to allow tl- ilaim in the first instance on the ground that he uld in an action concern ing impounding, awanl only the damage for the trespass of the single Uuy, when the horsen were taken up. This point, or the whole case whs subject to appeal, and we think that the I'lain tifT. by not taking that course is closed of farther action in that subject matter. He rested in the adjudication made and cannot institute another action. Thjudgment of the Intermediary Court con firming tte judgment of the District Courtis set aside. Judgment fur the Defendant with costs. f Ir is gratifying to be assured, as trembling hu manity is, by so eminent an authority as Pro fessor Proctor, that no special disaster need to be at pre bended for our globe when tlte giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune come into perihelion, as they all will between 132 aud 1335. They have often, be says, come into perihelion before, and in a less extended period, and no ill results Lave followed. There is no scientific basis for apprehension now. This is certainly reassuring, alter all the evil prognos tications in which sculation has indulged, con cerning the plagues and earthquakes and tumul tuous upheavals of the billows, and fiery vomit ings forth of volcano, with which the world is to be visited. A pamphlet by a St. Louis astrolo ger, full of direful prophecies, has startled the fears of thousands of credulous readers. Many of the Second Adventist school have had their in terpretation of the prophecies confirmed by the portents of the sky, and even some of a scientific turn of mind have attributed the recent spell of torrid weather to the attraction of the planets, although these latter have not been quite so pos itive in their conclusions since the frozen belt has girded this temperate zone. Above all, there is Mother Shipton's prophecy, with the marvelous fulfillments that have occasioned fears of the wreck ol matter and the crash of worlds," which she sets down for the eventful year of ldl. Irofei)r Proctor comes ia good time to com rose the agitation of spirit which has pervad ed so many breasts. Ilis scientific vision pierces the future and sees this jlanet moving calmly through spate, as it has moved through the ages both of mystery and of light that have passed away. He dreads no peril from the distant planets of the solar system ; and doubtless intel ligent men everywhere will pin their faith to scientific research rather than to the mystical dreaming- of religious enthusiasts. This is a fair abiding place for the buman race, and there is good reason to believe that it will continue so to bo for many, many years to come. Tus revision of the Eible, now nearly complet ed, ha been a far more expensive work than most persons imagine. There are fifty-two mem bers of the committee, and these meet for five days in every three weeks. No salary is paid to any one of them, but they are allowed their trav eling and inn expenses. These, with other items, will bring the cost of the first edition of the Re vised ISible, as estimated by the University Tress Company, which is responsible for it, to about 200,000. and consequently it has been deter mined to sell the first few copies at a high price. The new Bible will receive no authorization " either from Parliament or Convocation. It baa been discovered incidentally, during tbe sittings of the committee, that the so-called Authorized Version never was in fact authorized ecclesiastic ally or politically. It made its way by iU own merits, and tbe revised Bible ia expected to do tbe same. OUR NEW YORK LETTER. Xkw York. Dec. 13, li'O. Just after tbe Fall election in this State, Nast presented a cartoon ia Ilirjr's 'tklj of a par rot (Republican) standing n one leg. Lis leathers stripped off, his eye scratched out. and Lis condi tion generally very bad. while behind crouches a monkey (Democrat) with bis tail cut off and Lis face expressive of intense disgust. Delow W this question, Wbat sort of a time hive you Lad '" It is an allusion to a rather coarse story about a gt-ntlemsa who entered one morning tbe room where Lis parrot was kept, and found bim stripped of Lis wing and tail feathers, excitedly swinging backwards and forwards on Li perch, screeching at the top of Lis voice. " A h I of a time! a b 1 of a time!' while the monkey who Lad assaulted bim was crouching in tbe corner of the loom. This incident ia animal polemics is used by that most respectable journal to illustrate tbe political situa tion. Every party man feels that while Lis own party Las not gained much, the otber party are having as bad a time ol it as tbe parrot. The He publicans Lave won the battle, to be sure, but it was gained against a divided force. It is not com fortable for them to dwell on tbe fact that tbe united Democratic vote was in a majority of 30,000. President Hayes turned Cornell, the Governor-elect, out of the Custom House, on tbe ground that be could not be trusted to press civil service reform. Senator Conkling, wbo backs Cornell, got mad and ran tbe machine regardless of II ayes. Tbe independent Republicans refused to vote for Cornell, and tbe ticket was badly scratched. Tbe Tilden party is demoralized, and Tammany is knocked into m cocked bat." Tbe really curious feature ol tbe affair is that 31 r. Evaris, Secretary of State, wbo was cbiefiy instru mental in removing Cornell, on tbe ground of his incompetence as Collector of tbe port, came to this city and urged tbe voters to elect tbe Republican ticket. He didn't say very much about Cornell personally, but urged party unity. People who cultivate tbe dangerous and most unreasonable habit of thinking for themselves ask wby Evarts made that speech in favor of the man he turned out of office. And tbey answer it by saying tbat no Republican can be elected President if New York State fails to go Republican next year ; that Evarts, who would not leel grossly insulted if he received tbe nomination next year, concluded that it would be best" to work for the ticket, even though Cornell was at tbe bead ol it. This inci dent shows that the Administration bus no distres sing affection for civil service reform, aud are dis posed to think like the Admiral in the 1'inature.'' tbat such reform, like equality ol rank, is good for everybody but themselves. If they can't afford to be wholly good, they will be a little good, like tbe old darkey wbo was stealing a pair of boots, but under a sudden conviction of sin let the boots go and stole a pair of shoes. Congrea-men are infesting ashington just now, but they are a quiet lot. The coming game will be a close one, and a false move may be fatal. Tbe crop of " Southern outrages"' is small this year ; and besides. Northern men are at last get ting some sense on the relations of the blacks and the whiles at tbe South. The daikey does not meet fond expectations. He is not tbe sublime, whole souled, gentle, unselfcsh creature the old Abolition ist took him to be. Several years ago 1 predicted, and so did some others who studied the case, that if the North would let the South alone, the "Solid South" would soon melt into thin air. 1 know tbat I was called a renegade Republican for saying so. Just now these predictions are coming true. The issue in Virginia during tbe late Fall election was the payment or non-payment of the Slate debt. Tbe Conservatives, or Democrats, w ho have been in tbe majority in the Stale since the war, have generally favored Ibe payment ol the debt. Uut as they could not all hold office, some of them be came discontented and got up a party of repudia tion not really to repudiate the debt but ill order to get into office. Debt-payers und lion-debt-payers are generally Confederate soldiers, and nearly all were Secessionists. The repudiators were led by General Mahone, an ili Confederate t.Oicer. Tbe negroes voted against paying the debt the young men because they were in slavery when it was contracted, and the old men because they were told th t they would be sold into slavery to pay the debt. Tbe result of the election is that in tho Legislature tbe whites are quite evenly divided and the few Republicans bold the balance of power. The non-debt-pajers It ive therefore bought out the Republicans ; and in Richmond this trans action occurred lat week, that iu a Southern Legislature, in which the old rebel element is in a vast majority, the Solid South " so melted away in the political dickering and trailing that a onn anned (infe.lcrute .soldi' r teas turned out of '. wition n.i iltorktt r of' the Jiicer House, ami a neyro lCtp'iblirnn lean l in his place. Tell this not in Galb! Do we need an army at the South to protect the ueiro ? Do we, need stalwart" Re publicans to protect the negro in Congress, when he i being protected by a power gieater than that of sword r stulwart"" by the iriesi.-tible logic of events T Ad i' m regarding gu cinrinies will interest you. J-or a long tin. :! 1 1 w st-t divided up into large districts, and each iisin t was lighted by one g is company, which made its own terms. Several years ago. new gas ci lujiunu-s were foimed under charter Irom tbe Legislature, (money being freely paid therefor) with right to put ilow n pipes and sell gas in any part ol the city. These new con cerns at once came in competition with the old compaoies. and a war ol rates commenced. Coal only was used in making the gas. Now. some 30 rears ago, Tessier du Mo ay made a water gas by decomposing steam at a high heat. Coal was also used. The carhon of the coal united with the oxygen irom the steam and nitrogen wa obiained Irom naphtha. The was good und i-heap enough, but the bigh heni inelied pipe?, joints and valves.. S the process was ahamloued. La fly a I'.rooklyn man Hied so.ipst..ne in tbe places where the beat was intense mih made a success ol it. One of tbe companies bought the tight to use it. and is now making this -water gas, and selling it at a price which it simply tuinoiis to all the other com panies. The result is u grand row. Tbe prices of gas stock have declined, dividends are passed, anil investors are uneasy. As thne is some ten million ol dollars invested in this city in gas stocks, it be comes a set ions business. The tiiierest in lighting by electric ity suil continues, and much money isv spent in experiment. It wa told yesterday, by bigh authority, tbat Edison had at last succeeded SUCCeeded in pro,..ci..g .

So Honolulu may soon be lighted with tbe white light. I believe tbat there are about twenty companies now winking at the problem of lighting, but they don't make much headway. On tbe kindred subject of telegraphy there is an interesting item. Over twenty years ago, a man named Eastman invented tbe process of insulating wire and cables by means of gutta percha. lie finally obtained a patent in 18G5,and died shortly after. His widow offered it to the Western Union Company for a small sum. but she was badly snubbed by them. The matter died out. Recently, however, a speculator bought out tbe widow's right for a trifle, then brought suit against tbe Western Union Company for tbe infringement of tbii. patent, and obtained a decree in bis lavor. The result is. the company cannot use its insulated wire any longer, and, it is said, will be compelled to pay over a million of dollars damages for tbe infringement. The speculator made a good point. W. N. A. The intelligence of the British juror has sel dom been more strikingly displayed than in a case which came before the Canterbury county court a few days ago. The plaintiffs, a firm of rope and sail makers, brought an action against the defendant to recover the price of some rope with which they had supplied bim. The plain tiff's counsel was s satisfied with the case as laid before the judge and jury by the defendant's coun sel tbat be declined to address the court for his clients, and the judge, also evidently taking the same view, thought it unnecessary to oeeupy the time of the jury by summing up the evidence. Tbe jury, however, found great difficulty in com ing to a decision ; and, as after a grave consulta tion it was plain that they could not agree, the judge explained the merits of the case more fully announced that they found for the defendant. This caused some surprise in court, which was not lessened when another juror asked 44 which was tbe defendant and which was the plaintiff." His curiosity on this point being satisfied, there were further consultations and explanations, and nt length a verdict was returned for the plaintiffs. It subsequently transpired that the jury had been all along debasing among themselves the question as to which was the plaintiff and which the de fendant, tbeir opinions on the subject being ap parently divided. At the conclusion of the case the judge kindly remarked that if there had been a little want of understanding among them, they might console themselves by thinking they bad given a very sound judgment." There are, nevertheless, occasions on which a 44 little want of understanding " of this nature might lead to rather serious results. Eng. Paper. A New Atlantic Steamer. The following letter to the London Times is in teresting. Sir, In regard to an announcement lately made in The Times that tbe Cunard Company contemplated the construction of a steamship of great size and power, it may interest the public to know tbat tuy partners and I have just con cluded a contract with Messrs. James and George Thomson by which that firm is to build on the Clyde, for our fleet, a screw eteamship, the eize of which will be exceeded only by tbat of the Great Eastern, while the eped will be greater than tbat of any ocean steamer afloat. Ibis new vessel will be of 7,000 tons and 10,000 horse power, her dimensions being 500ft. in length, 50ft. in breadth, and 41ft. in depth, propelled by inverted direct-acting compound engines, with three cyl inders and seven oval tubular boilers, having 38 furnaces and 1,000ft. of effective fire-grate sur face. She will have an extra promenade deck, and will practically be a five-decker, being fitted for 450 first-class and COO steerage passengers, with accomodation for a crew of 200 officers and men. Her cargo capacity will be equal to C.500 tons, with 1,700 tons of coal and 1,000 tons of water ballast, having a double bottom on what is called the 44 longitudinal and bracket ej6tem." This vessel Las been designed, after lengthened consideration, to meet tbe requirements of our trans-atlantic service, and we have adopted in ev ery detail of tbe ship and engines tbe most ad vanced scientific improvements compatible with the safe working of so great a vessel. Among tbe important matters into which we have cru cially inquired has been that of employment of steel instead of iron, and after a practical and thorough examination into the merits of both ma terials, we have adopted steel for the hull and boilers, but under a provision eo stringent that every plate, before acceptance, will undergo a se vere and rigid test by a qualified surveyor ap pointed and stationed at the steel manufactory for that special purpose, and tbat the manipulation of the steel by the builders shall be subject to an equally careful supervision by qualified engineers of our own appointment. Tbe steel is to be made on the Siemens-Martin process, and all rivets as well as plates throughout the ship are to be of steel. The name of the new vessel is to be the Sahara, and she is to be ready for sea in March, 1831. I am yours, &c, Glasgow, Nov. 3. John Burns. Carious Advertisements. As a specimen of what we may term 44 ornate style," a certain Northumbrian auctioneer an nounced for sale 44 a quaint mansion and appur tenances, draped in the foliage of its 6tately pines, ' its ornate lakes abounding with trout, and decoy- j ing the wild-duck to the fowling-piece, wrapped ju ojnau ucauiicD, auu ju'puiiui a uigtuijeu air to the amplitude of its lawns and finely timbered park, presenting a foul ensemble of a country-seat highly expressive of the agreeable silence and soothing indolence of a rural retirement."

It refuses to be dealt with in parts and he who attempts it, makes a gastromat ic fail": 9 of no small magnitude. There is only one way in which an oyster can be eaten. There it lies on the shell, hard, white and plump, its convoluted edires. matching the rim of the shell Won nns the thin blftd of vnur knifn enrefnllo Won .n.i, k mlar it anil rphmiui tlA f hmim liAort frim if. connection. Then you lav your knife , J . , f . . c , down, take the frontal edge of the oyster firmly . ' . . . . .J J between your tnumo ana nnger, Dring it up in in front of your face in close connection with your lips, look at it an instant, lay your bead back, shut your eyes, open your mouth, place the delicious morsel on your tongue so as to sense its fine saltiness, then let go your hold of it, and away it goes, as slowly and as easily as a ship glides Irom the ways into the welcoming sea. Whoever has done this deed once, and felt tbe full physical rapture of it, has one memory, at least, that will never die while tho senses of the palate remain. Not only is there a proper way to eat an oys ter, but there is also a proper way to prepare an oyster to be eaten. And as regards roasting, this is the way. First and foremost among tbe requisites is a good old-fashioned fireplace, with its stone hearth, its stout brazen andirons, its white ashes, its glowing bed of coals, and its bright, roaring flames. Now draw up your low chairs and your stools, a thin tray, a coarse towel and a short, thin-bladed knilo on every lap, and a plate of bread and butter on the floor at your side. Set a bushel basket full of oysters, large as the palm of your hand and shaped like a scallop, at the corner of the fireplace, and a pitch er of sweet cider on the sideboard. Now we are ready. The host stands, tongs in hand, and with nimble motions places twenty of the big fellows on the carefully laid and blazing sticks. The silcDce of expectation falls upon the group. Every eye is lastened on the bivalves. Whiz, buss, sputter, bang! Now the sport begins. How the explosions follow each other ! How the tongs fly in and out of the fire ! How the folates rattle ! How the jokes fly ! How the aughter bursts out and peals through the old home ! How the chimney roars ! How the bread and butter and cider vanish ! Ah me ! We must stop or we shall not write anything sober to-night. Rut what memories Come out of the quiet past, from the far years when we children with lather and mother were all together in the old home, and we bad so much less than we have now, as wen count having, and yet had enough for love to thrive on, and such laughter as started tears. And the jokes cracked around that old hearth stone well, who can ever tell them again, as they were told then ? 44 Then was our mouth filled with laughter and our tongue with singing."
