DECISIONS.
JAN. 6.-Doniel Van Vlack and eighteen others vs.
Cornelius Vande,bit-The defendant in this suit is the
well known and wealthy ship owner, against whom
nearly hundred passengers bound for California,
brought actions for breaches of contract in failing to
carry them to their destination. The defendant applied
to the court for disclosure the part of plaintiff at
terney to the existence Of his clients and his right to
prosecute tesa suits in order that he might defend him
sell against such OF those suits as we're improperly
brought In some Of the it said that the plain
trs we're Dead and the testimony rendered it probable
that some not residents the suits we're en-.
tered. The question before the Court is how far can
it control the action of the attorney in suits brought
in this way The Court has doubt OF its power in the
case, and II is our duty to make order the ator
ney to make disclosure of where the plaintiff is,
where he is to be found This is power not usually
exercised but in the present case where the party
should be informed who they are to defend him
self We think therefore, that the Court has power to
oppression growing out Of it. Order, that tie attorney
shall present affidavit Of the facts as were given
in similar cases before the other Courts
Moser A. Westcoh John s. Moore.-In this case n

OVERSIGHT IL THE RECIPROCITY TREArY--
Quite an important omission in this treaty has been
brought to our notice by intelligent merchant of
our CITY, in regard to the articles of molass.s and
sugar. The treaty does not provide for the admis.
SIGN Of American grown molasses and sugar into
the provinces free Of duty, and the consequence is
by the present tariffs quite discrimination against
the American products and in favor of those i'm.
ported from foreign countries Toillustrate we will
take the case that actually occurred. A merchant
OF this city made q shipment Of Louisiana grown
molasses to Montreal, and was obliged to pay
duty of about seven cents per gallon upon it. Had
he taken foreign molasses in bond he could have OBJ
tanned II at the same price the New Orleans mo-
lasses, less the United States duty upon it, which
amounts 70 about three and half cents per gallon,
passed ii to Canada under bond, and obtained ad-
mission for it at the duty paid on the New Orleans
article. The result would have been q saving OF
three and half cents per gallon. The operation of
the present law Is therefore discrimination against
American molasses in favor of the imported article
to the amount Of about three and half cents per
gallon. The effect of the treaty as it now stands,
Will be TO stimulate the foreign instead Of the home
production and trade in these imp products of
the country, which we can hardly suppose our gov.
eminent anticipated We trust, therefore, that such
notifications OF the treaty will be made as will
place these American products on an equality at
least with foreign ones, IL not to admit them into
the provinces free Of duty.--PortlGnd Argus.
