The Panic in America.

One of those periodical financial crashes, which
are becoming too frequent occurred in New
York, Philadelphia and Washington in Septem-
ber 1t commenced with the suspension of the
house of Jay Cooke & Co., which was immedi-
ately followed by such houses as Henry Clews &
Co., Fiske & Hatch Grinnell & Co., and Others
of New York, carrying along with them scores
of banks and other moned institutions. The
panic among the public was as great as when
0verend Quincy & Co. failed in London in 1866,
aud thousands we're impoverished.
The public mind, says one of our exchanges,
was all ahoat, and in complete confusion as to
the remedy to be applied to restore even partial
order. At this juncture, the happy idea occurred
to close the Board of Brokers till somebody knew
something, and this was done. This gave time
for consultation. 1t was agreed that the banks
should issue loan certificates, which they did.
The next step was to look to the Government for
immediate aid, 10 staying the storm. The Secre-
tary Of the Treasury and President Grant went
to New York, and met the millionaires, who had
assembled for consultation. The latter deter
mined to induce the Secretary to issue the forty
four million reserve, as Secretary Boutwell, had
once done. This was perempiorily declined by
the Secretary, for the reason that he thought he
had no legal right to do so. In this, the Pres-
dent firmly sustained the Secretary. 1t was not
done. But another thing was done-the Gov
ernment agreed to buy $50 bonds and pay out
for the same, and ten millions of Gov
eminent bonds we're purchased, and the string
ency in the money market relieved.
The panic was caused by the vast amount of
funds and securities locked up in railroads that
produce little or no income. And also by the
speculation in gold and stocks, which absofbs so
much capital in these days. 1t has been pro-
posed to restore specie payments, but it has been
asserted that the Government possesses no au-
thority, without special Act Of Congress, to de-
cree the resumption Of gold payments. Congress
of late years has not been disposed to pass any
avs tending to disturb the value OF gold and cur
-ency. But it is clear that if this is not done.
these financial panics will become more frequent
han they have been.
During the late panic, London sent e2,25000O

Death of Admiral wInsIow.


The telegraph reports the death Of this distin-
guished officer at Boston, Sept. 29tb. His visit
TO Honolulu in 1871 will be remembered by all
our readers. To him more than to any other
man is due the credit of having dealt death
blow TO the rebel naval forces in June, 1864. in
the memorable engagement between the Kear-
sarge and the Alabama in the English Channel.
He had tracked this seourge Of the seas from
port to port till be found her in Cherbourg har-
Dor. There he sent challenge to Semmes, the
meet him on the high seas. Semmes took five
days to prepare for the engagement, and as soon
as she appeared in the ofing where Capt. Win
slow bad been waiting, the two ships closed in
action, and after few hours the pirate was sunk
with many of her officers and men. 1t was the
most splendid victory of the war, and with the
capture Of Mobile, which occurred about the same
lime, gave death blow TO the rebellion. For
this exploit Congress awarded to Capt. Winslow,
his officers and men, as prize money, the value Of
the rebel craft. which, if we remember rightly,
was over 100000. and also voted him the
thanks of the American people. The popularity
of this naval hero was very great wherever he
went through the United States In June, 1865,
we remember to have been at public meeting
at the Academy of Music in Brooklyn when Cap
tain Winslow entered the house as spectator.
As soon as he was recognized the audience burst
out with cheers, which were prolonged for several
minutes. The gallant hero seemed to be taken
entirely by surprise, and when the cheering was
ended, simply rose from his seat and thanked the
audience. When he died, be was 62 years of
age

This was an action to recover So 900, the value
of 1000 tons Of salt taken by the late King in
1869 from the salt late called Aiiapaakai, stu
ated within the land of Moanaua" The case
was opened on the 10th inst. and was concluded
on the 18th. by the jury returning verdict for

The Plaintiffs counsel introduced in evidence
an Award Of the Land Commission No. 1872,
dated Feb. Is, 1s49 to William Sumner, con-
firming deed dated Nov 6, 1889, executed by
Knmehameha III and Hoapih Kane, containing
IN the body of the Award a translation of the
deed. and awarding to William Sumner and his
Hawaiian born heirs the land of i" Moanaluar as
described in the survey annexed. The survey in
cludes within its geographical limits the salt
pond 1t was shown in evidence that William
Sumner died, leaving as his heirs William and
John and his daughter Maria, all Hawaiian born !;
that Dowsett bought one undivided half Of the
Iand from them, and took a lease from them of
the other half and that from 1889 to 1869,
Dowsett and his grautors had been in undlspuied
possession Of the land. II was shown that the
late King. ascertsining that the salt had formed
quite across the pond, sent large number Of
men and took some 200 tons from it, at great
expense but that, though salt was at that time
from March to June, 1862 in active demand,
owing to Carmen Island having been swept by
tidal wave, His Majesty hoped to get even higher
prices, and refused repeated offers at fair prices
Finally salt went down in price. The plaintiff
also proved that on the 10th of March 1869, be
served formal written protest on the Kings
Chamberlain and agent, setting out his title in
full, and warning him and all concerned to cease
their trespassing, and to desist from taking salt
from the said pond. A reply came from the
King Offering TO submit the case to the Supreme
Court without jury, and finally offering to buy
the land.
The defendants offered an award of the Land
Commission 10 l. Kamehamebs for the land Of
Moaualua by name, dated March 10. 1855, six
years subsequent 10 VIM. SINNERS grant The
defendants also offered the native version Of the
deed of 1889; and it was admitted for the pur-
pose of showing that The intestate thought he
had claim to the salt pond, as the deed speaks
Of ~kuIa and kuahiwi of Moanaua as being bar
gained for.
Judge HartweI charged the jury that the
award to Sumner of the land by metes and
bounds included everything on the land and with
in its limits, whether rocks, trees, springs or
ponds. That kula land was land not kalo or cul
tivsled land, and that the kalO land Of Moanalua
was excluded by the survey. That the right Of
possession Of the salt was in the possession Of

The Mail steamer.


[In the absence Of any details Of the accident
to the Costa Rica, of which we had the brief tee-
graphic announcement via Portland, published
two weeks ago. and as yet have not the San Fran
cisco papers giving a full account. the following
letter FROM the agent Of the steamer in San Fran
cisco, will be read with interest
The steamer Costa RIGA having sailed from
Honolulu Sept 6. arrived of the entrance 10 this
harbor at Z p. NJ. Sept 18th, and while running
in during very dense fog, diverged from her
course and ran upon the rocks in small iDdenta-
ton 10 the land near the mouth of the harbor on
the northern side.
The force with which she struck was SO great
as to drive her on the rocks where she filed with
water her bow being in twelve feet and her stern
in four fathOms depth.
News of the disaster reached this agency at
II O'Clock P. NJ, and without the delay Of mo-
ment our superintendent procured two powerful
tugboats and proceeded at once to the scene Of
the wreck
First. the passengers who were in the steamers
comfortable their baggage was then removed
from the sunken steamer, and all were at once
transferred to the city and properly cared for
Not life was lost, not "a limb fractured. every
soul was safely taken to comfortable quarters.
and, so far as we are yet informed not one piece
Of clothing, or one dollars worth Of baggage was
missing
At daylight arrangements were made to save
the cargo. and on that morning Sept ls) the
work of removing it was commenced. After
that had been accomplished as far as practicable,
our efforts were directed to saving our steamer
At this, and the removal Of cargo. our superin-
tendent, with large number Of men and every
appliance which experience and science could
suggest, labored necessarily until O'Clock P. NJ.
Of the oath. when we had the qualification Of end
ing our 6ne steamer pulled by the power Of three
steamers from the rocks and safely Hoated to the
dry-dock. where she now lies safe undergoing the
needfuI repairs to render her again sound. safe,
and seaworthy as she was before the misfortune
occurred.
The cargo is. Of course, greatly damaged the
foil extent Of the injury We cannot now tell.

himself more Republican than Imperialist. This
idea is condemned by the Radical leaders, it Is
said. and will only be considered by them as a
possible means Of securing votes in the Assembly
against the Monarchists. who claim that they
have a msjoritY of the French Assembly, CON-
posed 0i 1873 Deputies, consequently $40 would
be majority if every member were in his place
and should vote.
1t is therefore quite probable that the next
news from Europe will report the accomplish
inent of this effort of the Monarchists, or that
France has again been plunged into civil war.

conld not fail to make this result

The San Francisco Commercial Herald of
Oct .. contains an unfair account of the project
ed steam service between Sydney and San Fran
cisco. Its remarks are called out by telegram
from London, stating that the contractors agree
to carry the mails from London to Sydney in "a
days, and on the strength Of this erroneous tele.
gram takes the occasion to paint Mr.. Halls ca
reer in Sydney 10 very coarse colors. With this
gentlemans career, whatever it may be- we have
nothing to say, except that he has proved him
self possessed of wonderful energy and pluck
such as few men have. But regarding the steam
service, we wish to correct our contemporary in
two respects the subsidy is 100000 per annum
for the twelve knot service, which has been
agreed on. The schedule time between London
and Sydney is 40 days, which is sufficient if first
class ships are employed for the service across
the Pacific, such as ply on the Atlantic, and
which perform their trips regularly in ten
days, If american politicians are so indif-
fereut to the success Of American commerce, as
to refuse TO aid it when asked, why We must look
to European countries TO supply the growing
want of rapid steam transit across this ocean.
Steam is sure to fud its way here, and within
twenty years steamers will be plying across this
ocean, as they now do In every direction across
the Atlantic

value at that time, Ia regard To the deed Of
1889, the Court remarked that il appeared to
him to be deed to VIM. Sumner and bis Ha-

France and Germany.

At half past O'Clock a. NJ, on the 9th of
Of September, the last of the German troops
evacuated French soil Thus have both parties
fulfilled their treaty stipulations. France has
paid Germany's demands on account of the late
war, and the payments are stated to have amount
ed to 81 ,27O 204SO0. OF this sum Sl,0O0OOO,-
900 was indemnity, but large as it Is, it ia only
part of the cost of the late war, which is estImat-
ed to have been not less than S2,5O00O0,O0O
The payments have all been made, and the war
debt paid in one year less time than was original
ly bargained for. No evidence that we could
adduce can illustrate the immense wealth of the
French nation as this simple fact. We only re-
gret that the government seems likely so soon to
again drift into the hands of Statesmen who seek
to establish a monarchy, which swallows up
and wastes annually so much Of the industry and
wealth of this great people. 1t was the econo-
mical republican rule of President Theirs, which
enabled the French to do what no other nation
has ever been able TO accomplish. -alG

TuE FIRES which have occurred the past week
clearly show the necessity of having larger sup
ply Of water available in cases of emergency.
That al the water obtained in the valley is bare
ly sufficient to supply the town, is well known
and the quantity is decreasing every day. The
FIRE on Wednesday last exhausted the reservoir
and there was none in it on Thursday morning.
On Sunday night the depth of water in the Ieser-
yoir was reduced from eleven to three feet.
These facts show that we have at present no re-
liable water supply for fires, and that something
must be done Immediately TO remedy the case.
We think the government can find authority for
the emergency, without waiting six or eight
months for the Legislature to act If the late
government could spend eighty 10 one hundred
thousand dollars for erecting a hotel, without
legislative sanction, surely in matter of much
greater importance, the present government
should act promptly At all events, the prelimi-
ufry measures ought to be taken at once, even if
no great progress is made.

TIE CIVIL SUR tried last week in the Supreme
Court to recover eight thousand dollars from the
estate Of the late King, is an interesting one,
and settles two very important issues : First,
that The Sovereign is amenable to the law fOrany
irespass on private rights or properly. Second,
that the awards OF the Land Commission consti-
tute the basis Of our land tenure. The trial re-
calls some of the incidents connected with the
seizure Of Mr. Dowsett's salt. There was then
but one sentiment about it, as there is now-that
it was a bold and defiant irespass, which nothing
but the position occupied by the royal offender
prevented from having justice melted out at the
time. The papers and persons who dared to
speak Of the act in the language which it merited,
were made to feel the royal disGavor Justice
