Supreme Court in BancO, April
Term, A. ID. 1871.

KLAIAINA and her Husband, et al, Plaintiffs
rs HENRY A. KAHANU, Defendant
Action to recover possession of lot of land
claimed by descent Jury waived and cause
heard by the full Court. Answer a general de-
nial.
The evidence was that one Kahale o. died in
l849 seized of the land, under an award of the
Land Commission, devising all his property to his
widow, Kaumehameha. The defendant was adopt
ed by Kahele and Kaumehameha in 1887 as their
son and heir, and was always treated by them as
such. Kanmehameha died intestate in 1859 or
1860, leaving her kindred the plaintiff Loe sis
ter of her father, and the plaintiff Kaawaauole,
son of a brother of her father After Kahele's
death the widow married Kahoinea, who survived
her. and left issue the plaintiff Kiaiaina, by sub
sequent wife. The defendant has held possession
since Kaumehameha's death, but there was no
direct evidence of the receipt of rents aud profits
1t was decided by the Court in the case of
Keabi, appellant VS.. Kaaoaopa, appellee, that
an adoption of child as heir, according to Ha-
waiian custom and usage, made prior to the writ
ten law, is valid under existing laws and as we are
of opinion that the defendant Kahanu was legally
adopted in conformity to said custom and usage,
he has rights of inheritance. And as it appears
that he is now in possession of the property, he
is entitled to judgment in this case.
Let judgment therefore be ordered for the de-
fendant.

COLONEL MosBY.-It will be seen that this
gentleman puts himself right on the subject
of the ticket he will support ut the next pres
idential election. Upon the conditions pre-
scribed by himself he can never vote for
GRANT; for the Administration line of bid
ding Is precisely opposite to that Of justice to-
wards the South, and their bid is run up to
the very highest notch at once, and cannot
be surpassed. Plainly. GRANT and his fol-
lowers rely altogether upon sectional hate
and distrust of the South, and upon the vote
of the negro; and to propitiatc the bigoted
and malignant and barbarouS elements of the
country they have left no stone unturned.
TO bid for southern votes now, by changing
altogether their line of policy, would be rs
strange as It would be unsuccessful.

The Sale of Arms.

The report of the whitewashing commit
tee Of the Senate cannot satisfy the public
mind on the subject Of the sale of arms TO
the French Government. The sale is con-
tessed, but it is assumed that the Govern
ment was ignorant of the character OF the
purchasers The Marquis de CHAMBRuS Is
censured for peaching." If he had said
nothing, then nothing would have been
known.
The main point in this matter is that the
Federal Government, which is presenting
70 the Geneva Convention claim for cons(.
uuential damages against England for not
intervening the ron-cla dis built for the Con.
federacy within the territory Of England
and thus enabling the hte Confcdelacy t.
prolopg the war, had been selling arms to
France to equip her soldiers in her war with
Germany. 1t is singular that while she was
making out u case against England for con-
sequential damages she should have thus
been furnishing the grounds for one against
herself for helping the French. and enabling
them to prolong the war with Germany.
King WILLIAM may with as much right
claim consequential damages of the United
States as she can claim them from Great
Britain. It won't do for the United States
Government to say that it did not know
for what purpose the arms We're pur-
chased. It may with as much reason DC
claimed that the English Government was
not aware of the purpose for which the
iron-clads were built in the Clyde. The only
palpable and undeniable distinction between
the cases is this: That in the matter of the
iron-clads, the Government of England had
no part while in that of the sale of arms, the
Government of the United States was the
owner and the seller. This is very wide
difference, and would make much stronger
case for Germany against the United States
than can the United States possibly make
against Great Britain on the score of the
escape Of the iron-chds.

To me Editor Of the Joura0l:
A. the member cf the Democratic National
Executive Committee from Virginia, it he
comes my duty to correct statement con-
tanned in letter of recent date from the
Richmond correspondent OF the New York
Herald The writer says that the Ccnserv;I-
tive press Of Virginia, with the single eNccp-
tor OF the Norfolk Journal, favor the cleo
ton of Greeley and Brown, and that the
Journal IS supposed to be my organ. This
statement does injustice to the Journal, and
misrcprescnts me. As ut present advised,
| am prepared to support The nominees o.
the Liberal Republicans, and in my .ludg-
ment it would be exceedingly unwise for the
Democratic Convention at Baltimore to maze
any nomination at all. Believing that {
Democratic candidate cannot be elected at
this time, and that the only aternatiy.
| left to us is to choose between {
| Liberal Republican and Radical,
| cannot hesitate a single moment. From
| the reelection of General Grant we could cX
pect nothing but the continuance for another
term of four years Of the corrupt and op
presSiye military despotism which has charc
terizcd his administration. From the cleo
ton of Mr.. Greeley upon the Liberal princi
pies Of the Cincinnati platform we might
reasonably hope for the restoration of con
>titutional government. the deliverancc o
the South from all the untold horrors 0
Radical misrlle. and the inauguration of ar
"ela of good feeling" throughout the coun
try at large. Permit me to add that, in m!
opinion, the Democratic Convention at Bal
tilnore will not be controlled by the mar
row prejudiceS of the partisan, but by thu
dictates of an enlightened patriotism; tina
they will rise superior to the paltry consider
ations of party, and prove themselves equal t.
the great occasion that in their delibera
tons they will have reference, not so lnucl
