GUSHING sSJrcrID BY THE SENATE.

Nv refareihe tn oar7dispatches, 1t Will
be seen that the Republicans, at their
cancus Yesterday, unanimously re-
fused to confirm the nomination of
Caleb Cushing as Chief Justice of the
United States. He was rejected wholly
on political grounds. II appears that
Mr.. Cushing Vas not distinguished for
his loyalty during the war. At all
events, a letter has been resurrected
from the Confederate archives, where
in it is shown thai if he was not in ac-
tual sympathy with the rebellion. he
was. to saythe least,on rather familiar
and friendly terms with jeff. Davis.
The letter in question was written in
March, 1861, and introduces one Abra-
ham Powers, a "Southern man by
birth and education" to the favorable
notice of the President of the Confed-
eracv. This formed the basis Of the
action of the caucus Yesterday.
Whatever may said of Mr.. C~1lshing's
polical predictions, all admit that he
is a man of the highest attalnments.
Though never participating very &C
lively in politics during the war, we
Think that there can be NO doubt that
his views were antagonistic to the dec
trines of the Republican party during
that trying period in the history of the
country. What changes may have
taken place in his opinions of late
wears, we have no means of knowing,
but as he has the reputation of being
rather conservative, it is quite possible
that he has adopted ideas more in ac-
cord with the spirit of the age. If ii
became apparent tothe caucus that he
still adhereS to the extreme Democratic
views, the Senators composing that
body cannot be blamed for declining
to confirm HIS appointment to the ex-
allied position Of Chief Justice. As
Chief Justice, a contingency might
arise wherein he would have the pow
err to upset all the Constitutional
amendments growing out of the late
war. 4 Republican caucus could
MOI we'll afford to incur SO
great a risk as that, mere particular
ly when it had been demonstrated that
he vas in correspondence with the
President of the Confederacy, and ac-
tusllv addressed that functionary as
"my dear FRIEND" pending the great
struggle.
From the tenor Of the dispatches it
seems pretty certain that his appoint
lnent as Minister to Spain will also be
revoked. AS regards the Chief JUS.
ticeship, our advices contain nc intima-
ton as to who will be next in order.

THE CHINA.

Grave appre.ensions are being felt
as to the safety of the Pacific Mail
Company's steamer China, and crowds
of anxious people throng the office of
the company and Merchants Ex-
change in San Francisco, awaiting
news of the missing steamer. The
steamer is a long ways overdue. and
as Yet has not been telegraphed, or
spoken by any of the incoming ves-
sells. The last seer of the steamer she
was $500 miles from Yokohama. which
is about half the distance between the
two ports. An accident to her ma
rhinery may have caused her to 90
out of her course to some harbor for
repairs, but the impression is fast gain
ing ground that she is lost. The COM
pany have been very unfortunate late
ly with their vessels, and have incurred
expenses to the amount of owe $2,OO0,-
900 in the repairing of vessels that have
been disabled and IN putting on new
ones ia the places OF those that were
lost. The first Of the new vessels, the
Colima, Is now being loaded at their
dock in San Francisco, for her first
trip to China and Japan. y. portion of
the cargo supposed to be on board the
missing steamer is the full parapher-
MALTA of a new Chinese Joss house,
to be erected in San Francisco, and
the Chinese of that city apprchend
serious trouble. both to themselves and
in China il the steamer should not ar
rive. In what way the expected
trouble is to come we are not advised,
but suppose that t refers only to the
ualucky CeleS:ialS who had the super
attendance at the Joss.house on their
hands. There are still hopes hat the
steamer may arrive all right in a day
or two and relieve the owner and
those who have friends aboard of the
terrible anxiety that now surrounds
them A dispatch published in this
mornings SENTINEL states that the
company have signified its int ntion
to dispatch the Nevada I Today in search
of both the China and Colorado, the
latter being also overdue.

public, can be required to contribute
to the erection of any fence between
his lands and those Of his neighbors.
In all questions as 10 the obliga-
ton TO fence, or the sufiiciency Of
fences already built, the towsnhip
trustees, as fence-viewers, are the
legal tribunal, having jurisdiction to
hear and determine the case. To again
qote the language OF the eminent
Judge already referred TO:
"The fence viewers are made a To-
cal forum for the adjustment, upon
the equitable principle recognized by
the statutes, Of all differences between
neighbors In relation to their fences.
1t is true that the proceedings being
Of q special character the require
ments Of the statute nustbe followed.
But the fence-viewers are not usually
men conversant with legal formsand
modes Of procedure; and this the
Legislature well knew when it con-
ferred upon them the power to arbi-
trate, and decide controversies, con-
corning partition fences. When ex-
ercising the powers granted to them,
their proceedings are to be viewed
by the Courts, as to all matters OF
form, with at least the same tender
and indulgent consideration which IL
extended to proceedings before Jus
tees OF the Peace"
Considering the importance Of the
interests confided To that tribunal,
the people have a right to require
that the trustees should thoroughly
study the law in relation TO fences,
which are neither intricate nor VOLT
minous; so that they may be the bet
ter prepared to administer that equi-
table justice which is expected Of
them.
