ranging from 1903 TO 1876. The whole amount,

Capital Trial.

The trial of II All Chin, Cheong Kan
Ford, Agnee and Laon, four Chinese, for the
murder of Kaaiaiaina, at Hamakuapoko,
Maui, on the 12t day of January, 1865, was
commenced at -ahaina, at the adjourned
term of the Circit Court of Maui, Associate
Justice Hartwel of the Supreme Court, pre-
siding, assisted y Judge Lawrence, Circuit
Judge for that tircuit, on tbe Goth day of
January last. Averdict of guilty, was rem
dered against elch of the defendants, on
Wednesday, January %. These men had
been previously convicted of the murder OF
one Napua, at tie same time and place, but
satisfactory reapns were thought to require
the trial of the cher case.
The details of the case are painfully known
TO many of our readers. Napua and Kauai
alma, were two natives, somewhat advanced
in life, and Of excellent reputation, who lived
in small grass house near the Haiku plan
tation, upon which the four defendants were
employed asfeld hands. These natives are
believed to lave had quite a sum of money
in their possession, fact, of which, one, at
least, Of the Chinese had become aware. It
is supposed that under the influence of this
temptation an expedition of robbery and
murder was planned, and, in all probability,
the two OLE men, after being fatally wounded
by stabs AID blows, were tied up, while the
house was set on fire over their heads, in the
hope of obliterating all traces of the com
mission of the crime. The crowd, who as
sembled on the alarm of fire, found the life
less body of Napua, but Kaauaiaina escaped
in a shocking condition, and survived,
through four days of excruciating agony, and
was able to give somewhat satisfactory ac-
count Of what had occurred, although he
could not identify any but Agnee, by name.
The yerdicts were unanimous against Az
nee and Tin All Chin. Nine jurors found
Cheong Kan Ford guilty of murder. Two
said mt guilty. and one said guilty of
manslaughter." In the case of Laon. three
said mot guilty." and the rest said guilty"
but the jury recommended him to mercy.
Two, who said mot guilty." in the cases of
Cheong Kan Ford and Laon, asked leave to
record verdict of mot legally proven" as
they considered the guilt of each prisoner
morally certain, although not legally made
out, but the Court refused to accept such
finding, and their verdicts were recorded as
mot guilty"
On Friday last, the four prisoners were
sentenced to be hanged on Friday, April 9th,
1869.
The Acknowledgement conducted the pros
ecution. Messrs. Stanley and Thompson ap-
peaied in defense. Mr.. Wolfe, originally of
counsel, was compelled, by i'll health, to with
draw after the irst day.

CORRESPONDENTS.

Mr.. EDIToR,-All merchants feel that
commercial article should accurately set
forth the facts and circumstances of sale
on which it comments, otherwise it is like
ly to mislead people abroad and damage
those at home most seriously. 1t must be
very apparent, that if sale is reported
as cargo sale" lasting through three
days, and the prices obtained are reported
as very good, every commission house,
which has similar goods on consignment,
and cannot get rid of them, for like
prices, must suffer. in the estimation of its
constituents abroad and when the prices
so reported to be obtained as cargo prices,
are remunerative, it tempts merchants
abroad to place other like goods on the
market, to the injury of those who have
stocks on hand, as well as disastrously to
themselves. For these reasons, think,
merchants have a right to complain of the
commercial report, made in the p. C. Ad-
UertiSeT of the Both inst, of the sales made
ex h-dzu. This report is calculated to
impress those, who are unacquainted with
the facts, with the idea that it was scar
go sale" and held on more liberal princi-
pies, than any previous sale, of like nature.
and that large amount of goods had been
disposed Of. on liberal terms, and at good
prices. Now, no one ought to envy, and |
am sure no one does so, any good fortune
that may attend the owner of these goods,
or any other merchant He has perfect
right to dispose of his goods. in any man
rer, which be sees fit- and to reap the re-
ward of his enterprise. But at the same
time, it will not be denied, either by the
auctioneers, or the enterprising owner of
the goods, that they were put up in very
small, and very varied lots The samples
were sold, hut were not repeated in any
manner, to justify the idea that it was
cargo SALE" or that the prices indicated,
in the least. what might be obtained under
the hammer. at this time, for any consider
able invoices, of goods quoted.
do not intend, Mr.. Editor, to find any
fault with either the auctloreers or the i'm
porter. They were all right But do find
fault with the report, and think that when
a commercial report Of any paper takes
notice Of public sale, and makes it q pub
lie matter, it should be done on proper
business principles, and not speak, in ex-
aggerated terms, Of three days sale at
auction, at which the amount Of goods

New Queen of madagascar.

By a periodical, the AsRales de la Fro
pdgdtion de Ia Fol, we are informed Of some
events of strange character which have
lately taken place in the Isle of Madagascar.
The Queen, Rashoerina, died on the first of
April last, and the paper above mentioned "a
Roman Catholic organ), states that it is well
known that the late Queen was very favor
ably disposed to their Mission, but that her
courtiers and officers mostly belong to the
Methodist Church, and she was denied,
through them, the medical attendance of Mr..
Laborde, French Consul at Tananarive, an
old and experienced physician, who had for
many years enjoyed her fullest confidence,
and under whose skillful hands she found
her health much improved. During her sub
segment treatment by an English doctor, her
death was several times prematureIy an
ties prepared themselves to profit at once by
the circumstance, according TO their own
different views. A few days before her death,
a conspiracy was entered into by the same

Radama II. According to this paper, this

well-known Missionary, and author Of his

his influence bad, some years previously, be-
come Prime Minister to the deceased Queen,

Montgomery street.

As everybody who has ever visited this city
knows, Montgomery street holds the same
position In this city that Broadway does in
New York. II is the most fashionable avenue
of promenade. Since Kearney street has
hee1 widened and improved, and now meets
Third street as southern extension, great
deal has been done towards extending Mont
gomery street.
A project for extending Montgomery street
in straight line as far as Mission bay, was
engineered safely through the Board Of su-
pervisors, and it was understood that the
opening of the street was only question Of
time.
But new project has lately been brought
forward which is to extend Montgomery
street on line parallel to Second street, and
about midway between that street and Third
street
The projectors Of this plan who are private
spectators, have marked out their lines, and
have secured 1916 feet Of frontage between
Market and Howard streets. They have in
vested more than three-fourths Of 8 million
of dollars in the scheme, and their plan Is to
open the street as South Montgomery street,
and donate it to the city. They propose to
knock in the head the first plan Of extension
and compel the city TO adopt their plan.
