SIR 1t may not be amissfor nae 10 say very
few words with regard to the romantic adventures
Of Mr.. HehntssY, the artist. Many, perhaps, have
judged rather hastily and har'lly OF tile part have
taken in tho grand 1nale-the marriage. Their
ignornnco OF the Circumstances Will be FOR thern 4
sufficient excuse. They are Doubtless, as l myself
have been, very much deceived
As suppose you arc well aware, no priest would
ever consent to assist at such marriage as that Of
W. t. Hennessy aud Amelia Clotlda Maiher, know
ing that she was a divorced wife, hor husband still
living. Such marriage, according to tho unehauy.
able teachings of the Holy Catholic Church. is, ever
has been, and ever will be considered as null and
void. Irepoat then, that no Catholic priest could
or would Knowingly assist NJ or tolerate such mar
rage that to which your correspondents Of tue 9th
OF July refer
What, tAen, must we concluiei That there IL
to he found w tie church OF Jesus Christ priest
WHO favors free love and divorce, and that any
priest could ever 50 fortet the tedchag OF his D
vine MASTERY God lOibill We may be bad cnOu, II
In many ways but not quite lar gone to favor
cluson that can be drawn is this That the clergy
man WHO witnessed the mock marriage OF llcnnessy

Interested parties MIR. Hennessy was tao dece liver,
and alas Tor hiYi your humble servant was the de-

Important Decision.

A case of more than usual interest has been
decided by Justice HARTwELL, in the Supreme
Court in Banco, relating to the validity of mort
cages. The facts in the case, as submitted by
the Attorneys and stated in the official report, are
as follows
May II, 1868, the firm of Hatfield & Markle, COM
posed of j. w. Hatfield s. Jacob Markle, borrowed
500 from the said Ellis, giving therefor a note, Sc
cured by a mortgage on '' eight yoke of oxen and one
cart" possession of which, by the terms of the mort
gage deed, remained with the mOrtgagers until the
note matured. This note was never recorded
Sept 9, 1868, said Markle borrowed 500 of said
White, giving therefor his note, secured by a mort
gage on . eight yoke of working bullock, yokes, bows
and chains complete, one cart complete, one cart I'M
finished (wheels and iron work), three horses, one
mule, two yearling heifers." The mortgager retained

stick to the Records.

Our neighbor of the p. C.. Advertiser is not very
careful in his investigation Of the records of public
men, and his memory-why, in point of fact, he has
no such thing, so nothing can be said about that.
In speaking of the Hon. Godfrey Rhodes, he says
1.-THE great argument brought by the natives against
the candidate referred to, was his advocacy of paper
money, four years ago, and it told against him with
terrible effect Well, granting, for the sake of ar
gument, that all this is as stated, although, we
never heard of any such argument C) being used,
except the statement in the newspaper alluded to-
and that paper has been known to be rather rash,
sometimes, it only would show that somebody has
told a 8 terrible - lie, for Mr.. Rhodes not only did
not advocate - paper money, but voted against
the bill and finally, upon motion to reconsider, he
being in the chair, had no occasion to vote at all
and if he had not voted there would have been the
two-thirds required by the rules, for reconsideration
but he cast his vote against the reconsideration.
The editor of the Gazette would save himself
from being made the object of ridicule, if he
would read the records of the Legislature before
making such positive assertions. Mr.. Rhodes
opposed Mr.. Harris paper money bill, but at the
same time expressed himself warmly in favor of
paper money. if issued by priuate parties,-a
feature tenfold worse than having it issued by
Government. lie opposed the bill because he
thought the Minister of Finance had enough to
do without taking charge Of a bank, and because
no definite amount of money to be issued was
fixed in the bill. His advocacy of paper money
was too plain to be misunderstood, as the follow
ing brief extracts, from his speech delivered,
May 81, 1866, will serve to prove:
"a paper issue by private parties, well based and
thoroughly guarded, | WOULD FAVOR but | am not
in favor of the Government going into any such
NATTER although l am not in favor of
the Government issuing paper money, yet [ WOULD
FAVOR A BILL FROM WEALTHY PRIVATE PARTIES, where
they would have to deposit a certain sum as bonds
in the treasury, so as to protect the people against
any losses.'' . " = But if paper money was
issued by private parties, who had nothing to do
with the Government concerning it, l SHOULD FAVOR
SUCH A STEP, as it would bring capital into the
country"
We have once before had occasion to set the
Gazette right on this subject, but it's editors
change so frequently that it becomes necessary to
repeat it. This Ne do also, in simple justice to
the gentleman whose record had been falsifed by
the Government organ.

possession. The oxen and cart mortgeged to White
are the same that were mortsaged to Ellis. The
mortgage to White contains these words, viz: WAR
Tanted free from membranes, and against any
adverse claims, excepting a first mortgage OF SIuO 20
Ellis The second mortgage was duly recorded
Sept. Il, 1868.
Feb. %, 1869, the firm of Hatfield & Markle be-
came insolyemt, and assigned all their property to d:
McBryde, who sold at public auction the oxen ana
cart mentioned in the mortgage, receiving from the
sale S491.
Neither of the mortgaged notes has been paid, and
the questions are submitted -
l.. Whether Ellis's claim should be satisfied IN fuli
from the proceeds Of the sale
2. Whether Ellis's claim should be treated as d
second mortgage. ,
IS. Whether it should not be treated as an unsecured
claim, entitled only TO a pro TatG dividend from the
general fund Of the estate.
The Attorney for Ellis (W. c. Jones, Esq.,)
claimed that sufficient notice had been given to
White, of the existence of a prior claim ON the
chattels mortgaged, and that that notice was
tantamount to a record, as it had been virtually
acknowledged by White, in the mortgage made
to him.
The Attorney for White a. F. Judd, Esq.0
based his argument on IA strict reading of the law
(Sections 1862 and 1868, Civil Code,) which de-
clares that no mortgage shall be considered valid
as against other claims until recorded.
Justice iIartwell, after quoting the above Sec
tions of the Civil Code, enters in n full review OF
the law and decisions on recorded and unrecorded
mortgages in other countries, and comes to the
conclusion that {. our statute requires registry as
an essential to this mortgage as far as other per-
sons are concerned" He sums up his decision,
which will be found in full in the Gazette, as
follows:
eve are of the opinion that in this case, White did
not bind himself to admit the validity of the first
mortgage. He signed no paper, and received no con-
sideratiOn for any such implied agreement. If the
statute required a mortgage, to be valid and binding
on third parties. to be signed, sealed and witnessed,
would a person taking Il mortgage which duly COM
plies with these requisites and refers to a prior mort
gage i'll which they are not found, be held to have
assented to its validity? By no principle in law is
the recital of Il deed void as to any person, to be held
as notice TO that person of anything except of the ex-
istence of the void deed. (See Vassault VS.. Austin.
SO Cal, 700, decided in Jan. Term, 1861 The
mortgage of Ellis must be postponed to that of
Mhite''

Very Funny.

A " foreign correspondent in n certain local
paper, dating from San Francisco, written in
Honolulu y has made a trip over the Pacific Rail-
road, and has also made tour very important dis
coveries:
1st-That the railroad is a very pleasant road
to travel over in winter, much better than travel
ing in I" Labrador" in dog sleighs."
2d-There is hope for the islands. The emigra-
ton from the 4" ice-bound land,'' Iowa, will
soon sail for the sunny and fruitful lands in the
Pacific" Don't encourage this emigration oh,
don't. Those western 90 fellers are all annex
ationists. We call the attention of His Majesty's
Ministers to this fact, as fact it must be, coming
from their own organ.
3d. Our islands and the fellow savages
arc a standing joke in the States" This is rich.
1t must refer to His Majesty's Ministers. Eel
low savages," well, this is a new term to apply
to the Ministers. They had better look after that
&c foreign" correspondent, or the people will find
out how the Ministers are set down as I" a stand
ing joke +" in the States.
4th - Our " foreign p" correspondent says
&c something ought to be done to manufacture

powers use a secret service fund to convey correct
information through the Press of America"

The san Domingo Treaty.

Among the most interesting news brought by
the last mail was the treaty between the Ameri-
can Government and the Republic ofSan Domingo,
by which the latter cedes to the former all it's
territory, including the Bay of SANTANA, on the
eastern coast of the island, which, by a previous
treaty, has been leased to the United States as a
naval depot for the term of fifty years, with a
rental of $4,000 per annum.
The Republic of San Domingo embraces about
two-thirds Of the island of Hayti-the eastern
end-with an area of II 500 miles, or about three
times the total area of the Hawaiian Islands. It's
soil is very productive, and under a stable gov
eminent, its products and resources would be ten
times what they now are. The following are the
provisions of the treaty laid before the Senate:
1. The United States stipulate to pay the sum of
81 500, 900.
all the obligations of the Republic of San Domingo,
including the redemption of its currency, which is
represented to be of a comparatively small amount.
3. In case the obligations to be assumed by the
United States shall exceed the before-mentioned sum
of 81 500, 900, the public lands of San Domingo are
pledged as security for the excess.
4. The liquidation of the obligations is to be in
trusted to Commissioners who are to be appointed by
each of the contracting parties
8. In consideration of a discharge of these obliga-
tions, San Domingo cedes to the United States all
forts, DOCKS, CuStOu-nouSeS, anu all other public
buildings, arsenals, ETC., and complete jurisdiction
over the territory.
6. San Domingo is to be annexed or acquired as a
territory and not as a State, and subject to the legis-
lation of Congress in the same manner as territories
of the United States.
Z. The treaty is to be valid. to all intents and pur-
poses, when ratified by the Senate of the United
States and confirmed by a vote of the majority of the
citizens of San Domingo.
The question of annexation or ratification of
the treaty, vas to have been voted on by the peo-
pie of San Domingo during this month, and it is
reported that three-fourths of the native popula-
ton are in favor of it. Considerable hostility to
the treaty had appeared on the part of the foreign
representatives, and it is possible that the Euro
pean Governments may take some concerted action
to prevent, if possible, the contamination of the
treaty. But if the people, by a clear majority,
approves of it, no action of the powers referred
to can prevent the transfer of territory. While
it will furnish to the United States a safe naval
depot in the West Indies it will guarantee to the
island a good government and a prosperous future,
where perpetual anarchy and misrule have hereto
fore prevailed.

Notes.

The various publishers of American and Euro
pean monthly literature are vying with each other
to make their publications more attractive than
ever. Some of these have attained II point which
it is difficult to excel. Among the most prompt
on our table, and the most attractive in every re-
spect, is Harper's Monthly, the January number
of which is exceedingly interesting. The articles
on the Site Of the National Capital, on Beast,
Bird and Fish, and the notice of Du Cbaillu, all
illustrated, will be read by every one.
Speaking of Harper's publications reminds us
of on item in one of our exchanges stating that
2l5 copies of the Weekly are taken in Prussia.
Now considering that so many English and Amer
leans reside in that country, and the English Ian
guage is SO freely spoken there, this is not Il large
lumber. Why, in these islands, between four
and five hundred copies of Harper's Monthly,
Weekly and BdzGr are regularly taken, and sew
eral of them by malice Iiawaiians.
EVERY SATURDAY, which is now an illustrated
journal, it is said, has been changed from its old
form, on account of the fierce rivalry existing be-
tween it's publishers, Field, OsgoOd IL Co.. of Bos,
ton, and Harper Brothers of New York. The
Harpers issue ITO 900 copies of each number OF
their Weekly.
The New York Ledger has a wonderful circula-
ton. the edition Of January 1 having been 377 ,OOO
copies. What the particular charm Of this paper
is that makes it so very popular, we have never
been able to learn, but it certainly has the largest
circulation of any periodical in existence.
Speaking of large editions reminds us of the
independent, which claims a circulation of $4,000
copies; while DIR. S. H.. Tyng's Christian at Work
circulates 10000 copies.
Webster's Dictionary is becoming each year
more recognized as the standard authority of Eng
lish photography and pronunciation in both hem
ispheres. a statement is made by a Chicago
house that during 1869 over three thousand copies
of Webster. and only $50 copies Of all other die
tionaries, were sold in that city.
Henry Hoyt, of Boston, offers 5000 for the best
and $500 for the second best Sunday-school book.
The efforts of publishers to improve this class of
literature, have wrought a great change in the
character of Sunday-school books during the past
ten years.
Messrs. Bancroft & Co., of San Francisco, have
recently moved into their new bookstore erected
on Market street, between Third and Fourth
streets. The land and building are said to have
cost 1923 900. Messrs. b. & Co. publish a num-
Der of standard works relating to the Pacific
States.
The Empress Eugenie kept a diary during her
travels to Constantinople and Egypt, which will
be published shortly.
Tennyson's income from his various works is
over $40 900 a year. 10000 copies of his last
work were ordered by the trade before it was
issued.
Garibaldi's new work, Rome in the Nine
tcenth Century, has been translated into Eng
lish, and will soon be published.
