Under the head of =. Legal Notices, IN toe
Government paper of last Wednesday, appears
an advertisement signed "James w. Smith,
Circuit Judge. Fourth Judicial Circuit" This is
the fret intimation the public have received 1hat
Judge McBryde, who some time since went Oh d
visit to Europe, had resigned his ONCE on
enduring at the Court House. where one wouio
be supposed to find out everything pertaining 10
the Judiciary. we could find no one who knew
that there had been any such appointment. Nor
SO far as we can learn, has any public notice ever
been given of the fact. By law, the Judges oi
the Circuit Courts are appointed BY the hlng'
and hold Office for the term of four years. These
! appointments are made known to the public
through the Government Gazette, signed by His
| Majesty, and countersigned by the Minister OF
the Interior. Why has all this been omitted In
this instance? 1t has been suggested that per-
haps Judge McBryde has not resigned, but mas
only appointed Mr.. Smith as his deputy, to act
for him during his absence abroad. But this Is
not legally possible, for a Judge, of all persons,
cannot delegate his powers to another.
The Office of Circuit Judge is an important
one the powers exercised under the laws by the
Justices at Chambers are second only to those OF
Judges of the Supreme Court. and in many re-
spects are similar. In probate matters, their
jurisdiction is full, as to the appointment of
guardians and administrators, and to compel the
performance of the duties of such, or to remove
them for good cause. They have power to ad-
measure dover, and partition real estate, having
discretion to order a sale of property and divide
the proceeds, when partition cannot be made
without prejudice to the parties. They also have
power at Chambers to grant writs of habeas
corpus. Surely, the appointment and the COM
missioning of an officer of the law of so varied
and extensive powers, should be made known to
the public, through official sources. And so long
as the appointment of the person styling himself
the Circuit Judge of the Fourth Judicial Circuit
is not so made known, what force or effect will
his mandates, his rulings or his decisions possess

Opium Correspondence.

For the first time In some years, our Foreign
Office has had something to do. A correspondence
between the Hawaiian Consul at San Francisco
and the Collector of Customs at that port, and
between the Hawaiian Charge d'Affaires at New
York and the Department of State at Washing
ton, is published in the last Gazette. The subject
is opium, the traffic in which is regarded, by
public opinion in the Unitea States and elsewhere
in the civilized world, in no very favorable light.
1t appears that a Chinese firm in this city,
(Aiessrs. Along & Achuck) imported from China
to San Francisco a quantity of opium, which was
there placed in bond until it could be shipped to
this port. The Collector, under instructions from
his Government, claimed upon this opium the
duty of six dollars per pound this the agent of
the consignees refused to pay, and the diplomatic
correspondence is the result. The dispatch of the
Hon. Hamilton Fish, Secretary of State, which
we here copy, gives the whole matter in a nut
she'll:

DEPARTMENT OF STATE.

WASHINGTON, May 10th, 1871.
SIR have the honor to acknowledge the receipt
of your note of yesterday, with the accompanying
correspondence relative TO the expectation of opium
in bond from San Francisco to the Hawaiian Islands.
1t seems that, pursuant to an Act of Congress, and
the instructions of the Secretary of the Treasury
based thereon, that expectation IS forbidden except
upon q payment of six dollars a pound duty on the
article.
This provision must have originated from a wise
precaution against fraud, made necessary by expert
ence. 1t could not have sprung from any disposition
10 discriminate against honest merchants resident in
Hawaii, or against the subjects of that Kingdom.
Surprising, therefore, the discrimination to be indis-
pensable for the protection of the revenue of the
United States, it was and is the right and duty of
this Government to make it, unless that right shall
have been relinquished by treaty. In the opinion of
this Department there has been no such relInquish-
ment.
This opinion, however, is not final or infallible,
and those Hawaiian subjects, who may not acquiesce
in it, may, through the proper Courts of justice,
cause the discrimination adverted to to be diseon-
tinued. / have the honor to be, Sir,
Your very obedient servant,
(Signed) HAMILTON FISH.
s. U. F. ODELL, Esquire,
&C., &c., Sc, New York.
1t viii be observed that the Secretary very
plainly intimates that the experience of previous
frauds on the revenue of the United States perpe-
trated in this way, have made necessary the
provision complained of. 1t is well known,
that even with the employment of shrewd detec-
tives and the closest watchfulness and vigilance,
more or less opium is Struggled into San Fran
cisco, and from the inrimation above given, there
have doubtless been instances of smuggling the
drug from these Islands.
Certainly the necessity must have been very
apparent to have compelled the Government of
the United States to adopt such a severe rule. as.
In the words of the Gazette. to deny the use Of
their ports to the subjects and citizens of a friendly
State" This seemingly severe action by that
Government towards this, which it has invariably
shown a disposition to favor in other matters,
goes to prove the large proportions to which the
illicit traffic in opium has attained, and might
proftably set US to thinking as to how great an
extent the business is carried on here.
