INTERESTING CAsE--In the United States
District Court at Philadelphia, recently, q
case was called up for trial, of much interest
TO importers of syrups and molasses. 1t in
volved the forfeiture of cargo of what the
Government designates sugar cane juice, but
which was imported from Cuba as molasses,
the claimants being Messrs. Madeira & Ca
bada, of that city. By an Act of Congress,
duty of $ cents per gallon is imposed upon
molasses; and upon sugar juice, concen-
trated molasses, and melado, a duty of q
cents 2 b. is imposed. The difference be-
tween the duty on molasses and sugar cane
juice is about 10 cents 2 gallon.
In the opening for the United States, Mr..
Valentine stated that, in consequence of the
large difference in the duty between simple
molasses and the juice of sugar cane, i'm
porters had been induced to ship the latter
under the name of molasses, and that Con-
gress, in the year 1854, passed law, in which
il was declared that the shipment Of sugar
cane juice, concentrated molasses and me
lado, under the name of molasses, would
render them forfeitable.
Lorin Blodget, United States Appraiser at
large, was then called as witness, and tes-
titled that he had examined the cargo Of the
brig Lila, and had taken from the hogsbeads
portion of their contents, and had submit
ted them TO certain practical and chemical
tests, which he fully explained. Of the en-
tire cargo, AS hogsheads contained cane
juice, and is hogsheads, molasses- The spec
linens were exhibited TO the jury, and also a
specimen of the sugar made from the cane
juice.
After long examination of witnesses con-
troverting all Mr.. Blodget's statements, and
the argument of counsel, the jury rendered
verdict in favor of the claimants

PASSION SUNDAY.-From Sunday next, the
Roman Catholic Church in all countries where
the Catholic religion is professed, gives herself
up entirely to meditation on the passion of
Jesus, in order thereby, TO move us to par
ticipate and to complete our penance, since
Christ endured his sufferings for our sake.
This Sunday is therefore called Passion Sun
day. To that, all the ceremonies of the
Church point, and on that day, the crucifxes
and pictures will be covered, in remembrance
that from this time until his entrance into
Jerusalem, Jesus walked no more openly
among the Jews John xI, 54). From that
day till Holy Saturday, the Gloria RIt,i (Glo-
ry be to the Father,) will be omitted in the
mass, because in the person of Jesus Christ,
the most Holy Trinity was dishonored. To-
day, finally, the Church places before us, in
Jesus Christ, the innocent and unstained
High Priest, and from the contemplation of
him, inciies US to more earnest penance, on
which account she says, at the introit of the
mass, in the name of the suffering Jesus, the
words of the Psalmist (xLu): Judge me, 0
Lord, and distinguish my cause from the ma
ton that is not holy; deliver me from the
unjust and deceitful man, for thou art God
and my strength" (Ps. Lxu): "Send forth
thy light and thy truth, they have conducted
me and brought me to thy holy hill, and into
thy tabernacles. Judge meir

THERE is certain kind of affectation
very common among pretty women and
this is the affectation of not knowing that
they are pretty and not recognising the
effect of their beauty on men. Take a
woman with bewildering eyes, say, of a
maddening size and shape. and fringed
with long eyelashes, that distract You to
look at; the creature knows that her eyes
are bewildering. as well as she knows that
fire burns and ice melts she knows the
effect of that trick she has with them
the sudden uplifting Of the heavy lid, and
the swift, full gaze that she gives right
into man 5 eyes. She has practised it
often in the glass, and knows to q mathe-
NAUTICAL nicely, the exact height to which
the lid must be raised, and the exact fxity
of the gaze. She knows the whole mean
ing of the look, aud the stirring of mems
blood that it creates but if you speak to
her of the effect of her trick, she puts on
an air Of EXTREMIST innocence, and pro-
tests her entire ignorance as to anything
her eyes may say or mean and if you
press her hard she will look at you in the
same way for your benefit, and deny at the
very moment of offence. Various other
tricks has she with those bewildering eyes
of hers-each more perilous than the
other to mems peace and all unsparingly
employed, no matter what the result may
be. For this is the woman who flirts to the
extreme limits, then suddenly drays up
and says she meant nothing Step by
step she has led you on, with looks and
smiles, and pretty doubtful phrases always
susceptible of two meanings, the one for
the ear by mere word, the other for the
heart by the Accomplishments of looks and
manner, which are intangible step by step
she has drawn you deeper and deeper into
the maze where she has gone before as
your decoy then, when she has you safe,
she raises her eyes for the last time, CON-
plains that you have mistaken her cruelty,
and that she has meant nothing more than
any one else might mean; and what can
she do to repair her mistake. Love you?
marry you? No; she is engaged to your
rival, who counts his thousands to your
hundreds; and what pity that you had
not seen this all along, and that you should
so have misunderstood herI Besides, what
is there about her that you or any one
should love? 0fall the many affectations
of women, this affectation of their own
harmlessness when beautiful, and of their
innocence of design when they practice
their arts for the discontinue of men, is
the most dangerous and the most disas-
trous. But what can one say to them?
The very fact that they are dangerous dis
arms mans anger and blinds his precep-
ton until too late. That men love though
they suffer is the woman's triumph. guilt,
and conformation and so long as the trick
succeeds it will be practised.-Saturday

0uR native friends might have been OBJ
served. at nearly all hours Of the day,
during the last week, standing. gazing with
admiration at the images of lions. deer,
etc., imported by Mr.. Waterhouse. and
placed in the very neat grounds in front Of
bis residence, on Nuuanu Valley road.
Diana is likewise there. with her bow
and hound, probably engaged in hunting
the deer. Everyone should be glad TO see
the evidence of well-to-do " which the
spending of money in the adornment Of

palatial residence, erected on the same lot,
with his lions keeping watch and ward on

Speaking of prosperity: There is an
other evidence thereof on which Mr.. Wa
terhouse may be congratulated. His sec
ond son. Mr.. Henry Waterhouse, was
married, last evening. to Miss Julia H.,
youngest daughter of our esteemed towns
man. Henry Dimond, Esq. The ceremo-
ny took place at the residence Of the
brides parents, the officiating clergyman
being Rev. L. H. Gulick, NJ. d.
The printers had generous slice Of
wedding cake, on the occasion. and recon-
mend all our young men and women to fol-
low the example of our young friend
indeed, they seem hardly to need our
recommendation on that point. for, Of
late, they have been quite active in
getting married several YOUNG men, who
have persisted in bachelorhood here for
the last twenty years, more or less, and
elsewhere for much longer time, have
induced nice young women to enter into
the life contract, which ought to be fur
ther encouragement. not only TO their CO.

AMERICAN GIRLs.-Take the life of any
American girl in one of our large towns, and
what il is. We have an educational system
of public schools which for intellectual cul-
ture is just matter of pride to any country
From the time that the girl is seven years old,
her first thought when she rises in the morn
ing, is to eat her breakfast and be of to her
school There really is no more time than
enough to allow her to make that complete
toilet which every Well-bred female ought to
make, and to take her morning meal before
her school begins. She returns at noon with
just time to eat her dinner, and the afternoon
session begins. She comes home at night
with books, slate, and lessons enough to oc-
cupy her evening. What time is there Tor
teaching her any household work, for teach
ing her TO cut. or TO fit, or sew, or to inspire
her with any taste for domestic dutiess Her
arms have no exercise; her chest and lungs,
and all the complex system of muscles which
are to be perfected by quick and active
movement are compressed while she bends
over book and slate and drawing board :;
while the ever active brain is kept all the
while going at the top Of its speed She

ALL have heard of the famous "Swamp

ATTEMPTED ARSON AT SEA-The whale
ship Elizabeth Sryl, Capt. Bliven, an old and
welcome acquaintance, arrived here yester-
day, from New Bedford, having sailed thence
July 81, 1S6s, for a voyage to the North
Pacific On the night Of the 4th inst, while
about six miles south of Maui, some of the
crew attempted to burn the ship-which OF
them it is not known. Some pitch and lot
of tarred sinnet was set on fire in the fore
hold, and the hatch left open to create draft.
Fortunately, the fire only smouldered, and
went out of itself, thus Disappointing the
would-be perpetrators of the high crime OF
arson at sea, and no damage was done. The
ship has taken 80 barrels of sperm oil since
leaving New Bedford, which has been ship
ped home. She called at Hilo, before coming
here
