BAY OF SANTANA, January Give had
changing weather ter the first two days out,
cold indeed, but bright and clear with fresh
and favOring winds and the prospect of a
pleasant voyage; but toward evening Of the
second day, in the rough latitude of Hat
teras our troubles began, and from that
time until we nearcd our destination we ex-
perienced abundant discomforts and many
stormy seas, though without any severe test
of our sea going qualities, the frigate using
generally both steam and sal. We have
had a moderately quick passage, but the
behavior of the vessel under steam is far
from being satisfactory, and her mae !nnay
is found to be full Of serious defects. AS a
sailer, however, thu ship is pronounced
taultless.
We bad been out of sight of land six
days and a half, when, on the morning of
the twenty fourth, we heard from the look

The brass work Of tho frigate glOwed like
fire, and the waters glittered like FURNISHED
metal under tho blazing heavens. There
was hardly breath OF air, and az we
steamed through the calm sea the sails hung
useless from the yards At two o'clock in
the evening we dropped anchor IN the outer
harbor OF SANTANA. about two miles from
the village. Over the property leased by

street Railroad.

Assistant City Attorney hufus Wap.es
has filed a lengthy petition in this court on
behalf of the city of New Orleans, in which
the court is asked to set aside and annul the
sale OF the Magazine Street Railroad. made
to J. II. Young & Go. by the late City of
Jefferson.
Mr.. NAPLES sets up that the said sale is
null and void, and was so ab Nitio; that the
Council had no right to delegate it's powers
to ii minority that the committee betrayed
its trust. and that there was both in this
and other contracts entered into by the
said Council, conspiracy, collu>ion and
fraud.

In this court yesterday the Magazine

ages together with the further sum of 500
per day for every day the property known
as the Magazine Street Railroad of Jeffcr-
son City shall be retained. said property
consisting OF double-track road, running
from Toledano to Joseph street, together
with ten cars, twcnty-cight mules. one
horse, stables. sheds, and seven lots of
ground; blacksmith shop. tools, harness.
etc. amounting to $lJ0.0OD. The plaintiffs
claim that all of said property was taken
from them by force and violence, by the
late City of Jefferson.
That on that day Il committee appointed
by the said City OF Jefferson, through the
Metropolitan Police, expelled the officers of
the petitioner took illegal possession and
have retained it up to this time; and fur
thermore, the said late city has interposed
ono james II. Young by giving him Il pre-
tended sale or lease of said property, vcx

Fourth District COurt.-The CiaytOn-VHiI-

Louisiana State Bank vs. Gcrmania and
fIibernia National Banks.-Judge Theard
yesterday rendered the following opinion:
This is suitsto hold the Hibernia Bank
and Germania National Bank liable on GER
tain checks forged by Clayton, Williams
g. Co.
The demand is met by several exceptions,
among which is the following; That the
Iibernia Bank and Germania National
Bank are improperly joined in this suit,
because there is no prlvlty OF contract or
obligation between them.
Were it not the common interest which
the defendants have to see their liability
adjudicated upon in one judgment, the eX-
ception would be we'll founded: but their
common interest consists III this:
The plaintiffs claim is for $4S65 40: the
amount of the check certified by the Ger
mania Bank is $4063 81; the amount of the
two checks certified by the Hibernia Bank
is SlOo85 q. If separate accounts were
brought sthey would necessarily be for the
whole amount of the checks, besides cre-
ating a multiplicity Of suits and increasing
costs. But the plaintiff, If any liability at
all exists on tho part Of tho defendants, can
recover NO moro than the actual loss sus-

made the piece success. The second part intro
duced Mr.. Wallace in his wonderful banjo solos,
which are immensely popular and never fail to bring
down the house. Those who have never considered
the banjo as q musical instrument, cannot listen to
the mastery execution of this artist without being
convinced otherwise. The various members of the
company in their several specialties, all appear to
advantage very laughableact entitled That Ras-
cal Frank" by Messrs Jones and Wallace is full of
jokes and witticisms, and may be considered the
greatestit ofthe season. nothing can be produced
that is more funny will give these gentlemen
better opportunity for the display of their talents,
which are certainly of the highest order In this as
in other acts, Mr. Jones has shown considerable i'm
provement since his former visit here. Mr. G. Fame
character singer and comic vocalist received i'm
applause by his very natural impersonations,
aud took the audience by surprise with the rapidity
ofhs changes for each character in addition to which
he has an excellent voice. This style is quite origi-
nal and cannot do otherwise than become very
popular Mr.. Mclaughlin, personator of female
character jig dancer and comedian is another great
card, and although quite young man, it is evident
that the time is not very distant when he may shine
prominent light in the minstrel armament. Mr.
Rosa astOnished and delighted the audience with
very difficult feats of posturing and tumbling
which he performed with graceful ease, proving
himself accomplish athlete as well as comedian
of no mean ability. The comic farce ola "Trip to
Paris" with the irresistible Jones and Wallace in
the principal characters, concluded the performance
1t is of the most amusing and successful pieces
that has ever been put upon the stage in this city
The manager Mr.. Brooks, deserves great credit for
his enterprise in introducing such array of talent
as that which comprises the California Minstrels,
and there is but little doubt that the public will ap
preciate his efforts in providing for theramusement
in such a manner as he deserves. Mr.. Jones, as
stage director is entitled to much praise for the sue
cessfu manner in which every act has been placed
the stage. On Friday evening, the audience was
very fair one, and Saturday. as might be expected,
the house was again crowded. Fresh novelties will
be produced weekly, and judging from the pro-
gramme and the appearance of the houses on Mon
day and Tuesday evenings, there is no doubt of the
of the Ministries durHg their stay in Ho
nolulu. On Saturday afternoon the minstrels will
give grand matinee for the accommodation of Ia
dies and children, on which occasion select pro-
gramme will be presented.
