IMPORTANT In the Superior Court, San
Francisco, few days since, Judge Sh attuck
determined the case of, Little PARROT ct al.
The question arose as to the validity of
check presented by the colored porter of
Palmer, Cook s. Co., to PARROT s. Co., the
defendants denying their liability. The
Corut said:
The proof is sufficient to show the defend
ants liability, if the check was presented on
the 10Th, as is alleged; but then there is no
legal proof of this. The fact that Mr.. Reed,
the cashier. gave the check to the porter of
the bank of Palmer, Cook & Co. to collect,
renders it extremely probable that he did
as he was commanded but that is no legal
proof that il wa' presented for payment.
The porter who demanded the payment, is
the proper person to prove it, and some per-
son should be employed for that purpose,
who can be witness. Judgment for the
defendants.

FORTUNATE EscAPE.-Last Saturday,
says the Mountain Messenger, while Mr.
John Eberly was passing through Secret
Diggngs, he stepped into shaft near forty
feet deep, with abOut fifteen feet of water in
it. As soon as Mr.. L. fell through the crust
of snow that covered the shaft, his dog ran
about barking, and by repeated efforts of
the kind, succeeded in attracting the atten-
ton of some passers near by, who immedi-
ately procured rope and rescued the un-
fortunate man. MIR. f. had, before assis-
lance arrived, succeeded in getting within
fifteen or twenty feet of the top. when he
again slipped back. At the time of the rope
reaching him, he was barely able to tie 1T
around him and be hauled out,

to a severe confagration as any other community !;
and we may be called at any time to witness a destruc-
ton fearful to contemplate, where fortunes will be re
duced to ashes, and long desired hopes nearly re-
allied, blow away in smoke. Such a calamity Is
to befal us at any moment, from the fact that
so little pains are taken to render it within the means
Of our ever willing fire department to stay such q
disaster, should a fire occur In many localities during
the prevalence of the strong trade winds in the dry sea-
son. What are our ciSternS Good sized watering

all the ability and energy of our fremen, when we
come to haze a fire, they might about as well be out
Of the way as where they are. They are ~ciSterns, or,
so called,-but that's the advantage Of hdUiRg q
name. That the government will increase the facil-
tiles at present supplied for the extinguishment Of
fires, is past hope. Cannot cur merchants and small
traders do something? They are all running risks
some great, some small, it is true but if they heed
well their own interests, they will, at least make an
effort. Every consideration of selfipterestc calls upon
them to act, and the sooner the better.
But enough Of this. Let some more practiced hand
deal with this subject as it should be dealt with. Let
our merchants unite with our present fire depart
ment, and become active members. Let every men-
Der of community who has any interest here come
forward and enrol himself as q fireman. And the
ladies,-dears ouls-always prominent in good deeds,
must give their cOuntenance and support to the de-
p%artment. By-the-by, Il splendid banner, the gift of
the ladies to engine Co. No. 2, was displayed by the
company with pride, and was admired by all lockers
on. The same compliment to No. l would not be
amiss.
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, I would say, all honor
to our fire department !! They tender their services
gratis, and, regardless of self-interest and much ex-
pense, are always at their post. Our community
should lend them a helping hand, and aid them in
their good work. HOSE PIPE.

Mr.. EDITOR The splendid turnout of our fire
department on the occasion of His Maiesty's birth day
Gu Monday last, deserves more than a passing notice.
All the appointments were elegant, and the procession
made as pretty a display as any one would witness in
a life time, where the department consists of but two
engine companies. The music was good and both
companies showed that they were well posted up in
al the details of a fremen's parade.
The companies left their engine houses about 2
O'Clock P. NJ, and after marching through the princi-
pal streets, to the qualification of all who witnessed
the procession, retired to the house of No. 2, where a
bountiful repast was provided for the whole depart
ment by the 2as. More good feeling than was ex-
pressed by each company towards the other, has
rarely ever been manifested anywhere. Indeed, they
appeared as tremen always should appear, as a band
OF brothers and invited guests, Of which there were a
number, felt much at home, and Joined right heartily
IN the good time. The sentiments and speeches were
good. and many of them brought down the house,
with a vigor that showed the fullness of the hearts of
those assembled.
But do not purpose to speak of what almost every
one here see and doubtless commends. [ wish to call
attention to a few facts that, to those most interested,
ought not to go entirely unheeded. It is a fact that
Honolulu has, thus far, escaped anything like a seri-
Gus IRE within the memory of the !" Oldest inhab-

it appears from an examination of
~ the papers of Mr.. RuXtOn, eX-captain Of the Protectorate
schooner Rob Roy, deceased on board the Caroline Hort, dur
ing the passage of said vessel from Sydney to Tahiti, as well as
from other particular sources:
1t, That said captain had taken. from the bark .JuLio dou
wrecked at the Sciny Islands, the sum of 31O1 sovereigns.
Islands, said RuXton declared that he had not saved more than
Az sovereigns out 3104 formerly taken, of which fact there is
great doubt, since a great number of articles of smaller value
were saved.
Sd, That it is suspected that said Ruxton has embezzIed. for
his own profit, Il part of the sum saved from the ,Jxkic 4uu.
wrecked n second time with the Rob ROY -
The g" Commandant Particular" Commissioner of IT 7 NJ
in the Society Islands, has ordered that an inquest be made bv
the Justice of Peace, acting al interim as Judge of Instruction,
upon the facts above stated.
FROM said inquest, during which Mr.. Charlton, second in
command of the Rob Roy, did not appear, by reason OF absence.
neither the crew, and whose testimony was very important, it
appears:
That said Buxton made, at Sydney, excessive expenses. out
OF proportion with his situation aud with what he was known to
possess when he left Tahiti.
That,i in answer to one of the witnesses inquiring from him
how he was able to spend so freely, he declared that he had re-
celVed money as assistance from a Scotch society named
Scotia.
That, after the demise of said Ruxton, SO sovereigns and four
dollars, as well as some goods and jewelry, were found in his
possession, the origin of which cannot be explained.
In consequence, the Commissioner of II. I. NJ. has decided
that the present abstract should be published in the official
newspaper, so that all interested parties may present their
claims upon the succession of-said Ruxton, delivered into the
hands OF the British Consul, who will preserve it during one year
from this date.
