HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.

MURDER OF A CHILD, AND SUICIDE OF THE
MURDERER.

a Noble Example.

The Emperor of Russia has recently done an
act which must tend to ennoble him in the eyes
OF all lovers of equality, without regard to color.
A colored man who had served as captain during
the late war in the volunteer forces, named Thos.
NJ. Chester, visited st. Petersburg, and while
there the American Minister, Mr.. CLAY, proposed
to present him to the Emperor, but us there was
no precedent for the presentation of a negro at
Court, the Minister called at the Foreign Office to
inquire whether the Emperor would consent 70
any such proposition as the presentation of Can't
ain Chester. A few days later the American
Minister received n note from the Foreign Office
stating that the Emperor had given orders to have
Captain Chester's name put upon the list for the
first presentation. As to what followed. VIC
quote from the American Minister'S letter to the
State Department, from which we have gathered
the above:
To-day being the occasion of a grand rev;ew of
the Imperial Guard, the Emperor sent an invitation
to Captain Chester to assist in the review, which he
did, riding around with his Imperial Majesty's staff,
and taking lunch at the Winter Palace with the staff
officers and a portion of the Imperial family. who
accompanied the Emperor at the lunch.
"I have made these facts known to you, as I re-
gard the affair of some Importance. We have four
millions of colored citizens ; they are with us and for
us, for good or evil. l think it is the duty of all
good citizens to try and elevate the African race in
America, and inspire them with all possible self
respect, and prepare them for that ultimate influence
which they must sooner or later have upon the DO
litical and economical interests of the United States.
They are the views which have influenced my action
in this case, which, not partisan in their character, 1
should hope would be satisfactory to all patriotic
Americans"
Here was a negro-not a prince, but an Ameri-
can citizen, possibly one who had served as a slave
presented to the most renowned Emperor of
Europe. 1t may be that other European Sover-
eigns have given similar receptions, but if SO,
they have been few and far between. The incl
dent illustrates, perhaps better than any other
could, the interest taken by the Emperor of Rus
STA in America, and his disposition to bring the
negro forward and allow him an opportunity to
exhibit his breeding and manhood, and to take
whatever position in society he may merit.

Supreme Court.

On Tuesday Of this week was tried the case Of
Peter and Mary Ann Mellish rs. Bal & Adams,
claiming some twelve acres Of cane land in Wal
luku, Maui, now IN the possession OF the defend
ants, by virtue Of the plaintiffs being the chill
dren Of Becky, n daughter, by adoption. of
George Lawrence, to whom the land was origin
ally granted. After the plaintiffs evidence was
all in, Mr.. \. F.. Judd. Attorney for the defend
ants, moved for n non-suit on the ground that the
evidence tended to show that this adoption was
previous to 1S41, the earliest written law ON the
subject, and that there was no law and no proof
that such an adoption carried with it the right of
b~cirship, and made the adopted child inherit
property as a child of the blood. The question
was fully argued by Mr.. Judd for the defendants,
and by Messrs- Thompson and Jones for the
plaintiffs.
Judge Hartwcll said that, prima facic, only
real children could inherit real estate Of their in
testate parents. The plaintiffs claim this prop
erty on the ground Of an ancient Hawaiian usage
comforting upon a. keiki hanais" adopted chill
dren) the rights Of children OF the blood. The
Court were not bound to take notice of such q
usage, so vital in it, Importance as regards land
titles, without express proof; and as the plaintiffs
had not attempted to prove this usage, the Court
granted the non-suit-
In the argument, which was interesting, rs
being the first time in which this question was
raised, Mr.. Judd showed the Court that no Lalp
exists on the Statute Books giving adopted chill
dren the status Of heirs. Doubts have arisen in
the minds Of many, from the way in which the
words 80 keiki hGnaI ~ are translated some claim
ing that il is n child brought up or, literally, fed
by another" whereas kSiki hG0kansa,'' is the
usual expression to indicate the closer relation by
which n child brought up by another as has o.cn,
and designated as his heir during life, became 50
after death but the title by which they have
thus come into possession OF real estate, will
be found to be either verbal or written
wills.
Non-suits seem to be the order Of the day, for
ON Wednesday in the ease OF Brewer rs. Chase,

store on Fort street and damages, the Court held
that the plaintiff ough. to have brought his
action according to the provisions Of the Civil
Code, where n process tn obtain summary poses

Reciprocity in New York.

The New York Chamber of Commerce met OF
the Sd of June to discuss the question of Canadian
reciprocity. There was a full and free inter.
change of views, the speakers generally being in
favor of the measure. Among others, General Wal
bridge made a lengthy speech, and said, that
opposing any measures look ing to the acquisition
of Canada by force, he would welcome its people
when they are willing to link their political for
tunes with the United States. lie did not believe
it good policy to attempt to coerce Canada by
commercial restrictions into q union with the
United States. Intimate commercial relations
should be brought about upon terms mu-
tually beneficial, and the political issue will follow
in good time. He stated the questions between
the United States and the Provinces as follows
First, An interchange of the natural products of the soil
upon a such reeiprGGaa terms "a as may DC agreed upon:
Third, Free navigation Of the river ST. Lawrence, and the
Fourth, Freedom OF the in-shore fisheries of the coast of
Fifth, Regulation of transit trade.
The General contendcd that, while the Cana
dams will be satisfied with the convenience of
selling in our markets in return for the enlarge
ment OF the st. Lawrence canal by them free of
cost to the United States, and the freedom of the
st. Lawrence and fisheries, yet that convenience
of our markets to them will really be no competi-
ton to our farmers. and an absolute benefit to
our merchants. Our capital and credit, together
with the fact that we have free access to the
ocean at all seasons of the year, would be a great
convenience to the Canadians, but their use also
necessarily implies that, in using our capital, our
credit and our ports, we derive the advantages
that the possession of capital, of credit and of
ports give to the community. In other words,
We become the merchants of four millions of peo-
pie whom we are now driving away
The following resolution, embodying the SEN
timent of the Chamber, and no doubt of q large
portion Of the business men of New York was
then adopted almost unanimously
Resolved, That the Chamber Of Commerce OF New York
City heartily endorses the resolution Of the Committee Of Ways
and Means which unanimously passed the House Of Representa-
meniing the President Of the United States to renew negotia-
tons with the Government Of Great Britain and press them, 1 &
possible, To n definite conclusion for an arrangement OF recipro-
cal trade with Canada, and securing 10 our CITIZENS the free
Of the coast OF British North America
The subject is of interest here only MS it bears
on our reciprocity treaty. Should a Canadian
treaty pass, there will be some prospect of the
passing, inasmuch as the support of the
from the Pacific States could only Be
by offering some compromise.

The French ocean Telegraph.

Among the items of news brought by the last
mail was one announcing that the French cable
was being laid across the Atlantic. The mann
moth steamship Great Eastern, which served SO
successfully in laying the present Atlantic cable,
and which seems to have been providentially
built for this, the only successful purpose for
which she has yet been used, is the vessel which
carries the French cable. Her great length nd
mirably fits her for this service, as she is enabled
thereby to ride over the ocean swclls with more
case than an ordinary vessel.
"On the deck OF this large ship writes one
who visited her just before she sailed, s'are
three huge wrought-iron tanks constructed
in her sides, and shorcd up by stout timber
struts, which make them almost part and parcel
Of the ship these are all water-tight, and can
be filled and emptied as required. From the cen
tire of each tank rises n cone, and around this the
cable has been coilcd with great care and ex-
quisite regularity. The line will be in two sec
tons, each containing three different kinds of
cable. The main section is from Brest TO the
Island Of st. Pierre. This cable measures 2 1925
miles, and the second section will be laid from
st. Pierre to some point near New York, making
n total of 1850 miles. The object of having differ
