out, the building, which had been constructed in
the best manner, reduced to heap Of ruins.

An Atlantic correspondent of the Standard
says that news has reached the States that
American residents of Japan are making
themselves very obnoxious to the people Of
that empire by contemptuous disregard Of
all japanese rules Of propriety. Particular
pains seem to be taken by these residents to
offend the japanese by every possible degree
Of rudeness 1t is considered highly insulting
in Japan, to enter private dwelling without
taking off ones shoes Even the Emperor
cannot disregard this custom in entering the
house of the meanest Of his subjects Yet
American merchants resident at the japanese
ports do not hesitate to make Doors of them
selves by violating, in the most contemptu-
Gus manner, the custom. There is no justih'
cation for such conduct, any more than there
would be for an inhabitant Of Japan to come
to our country and, taking his bath-tub into
the middle of the street, perform his ablutions
after the custom Of Japan. When you are in
Rome do as the Romans do, so far as manners
are concerned and SO far as the limits of
morality will allow, is a sound maxim and a
christian like one, too, for true politeness has
a deeper foundation than mere externals. As
is one of the chief virtues among
men, SO is an insult to hospitality meanness
which no true man can be guilty Of
As to its being a matter of pride for an
American to refuse to respect the customs of
foreign country, he might with equal reason
refuse to respect even the ld0s oft the country.
Every custom of his own people which does
not directly insult those among whom chance
has thrown him, he certainly has right to
exercise, but he has no right to offer what is
regarded as a deliberate insult, and what he
knows is regarded SO. If you cannot be pre-
sented at European court, without donning
court costume, don't thurst yourself in head
foremost in order to show them that you are
an American and too proud to be decent If
your dignity will not allow you to take a
wifi from the Indians pipe when you enter
the Indians lodge, keep your dignity out of
his domicil

LAND TITLES IN PETALUMA-We learn that
the suit brought in the Seventh Judicial Dis
trict Court, by Mr. James F. Stuart against
Mrs L. Z. White and heirs, from whom he
purchased Il portion of the claim to the land
upon which Petaluma is located, has been de-
cided 10y Judge MeKinstry adverse to Plain
tiff. The object of the suit was to quiet IT,
tie According to this decision, as We under~
stand it, the sale and transfer of the proper
ty by Mrs. White to Mr.. Stuart is deemed 10y
the Court illegal and void and the legal title
yet vested in Mrs. White, Notwithstanding
she once sold it to Mr. Stuart, and received
from him the sum in full agreed upon. The
case will, of course, 90 to the supreme Court,
and not unlikely to the U. 5. Supreme Court
