Mr.. HALFoRD has commenced an ac-
ton 10 restrain the conscienceless cigar
cite manufacturers from using the portrait
of his daughter as an advertisement of
their wares. There is an evil in this bus
iness Of pictorial advertising that must be
met by legislation presently, and with such
attaching penalties as will make these ras.
Gals cease their nefarious work. We know
an instance in which the person of a
worthy lady of retiring disposition and
domestic habit, who is blessed with great
beauty of face and form, has been thus
wantoniy pictured. Her sons and daugh-
tiers were Mortified the other day to see
her face in one of these advertising de-
vices for liquor and tobacco displayed upon
the highway. That was not the worst OF
It-by the art of the photographer, who
obtained the portrait from negative
taken for one of the sons of the lady, the
head of the figure is mounted upon a
nearly nude and grossly indecent picture
OF woman's body. No steps have been
taken to punish the publishers, because to
do so will necessitate dragging the name
of the lady before the public, and subject
ing her and her family to humiliating
scenes in Court, aud to distasteful conten-
tion. There must be some means provided
to put stop to this promiscuous use OF
the personal right of another. By the
system of amateur photography that has
come into use, and the new style of cam.
eras that can be carried in the pocket, and
are charged for the taking of hundred
instantaneous pictures, the features of any
one can be photographed without his or
her knowledge, on the street, while at the
door Of the home, IN the public assembly.

almost anywhere. and the copy used for
any purpose. This has its uses for good,
but its abuses are numberless, and of a
character that will call for the enactment
of laws to protect people in the right to
their own features. If men and women
have not the inalienable right to the pri-
vacy of their own countenances, then there
is very certainly broken down one of the
supposed guarantees of liberty, and one of
the most sacred of personal rights.

ACCORDING to the statement of the
masters Of the British schooners which
have been captured by, or have fled from
the American revenue cutter in the Beh-
ring Sea, over 5000 seals have been taken
in deep water this season thus far. We
may safely assume that those vessels that
have not reported, and which are said to
be tifty-fve or sixty in number, have taken
a proportionate number of seals. This
would make the total number as $4,000
pelts taken this summer, and the season is
not half over. At this rate, how long
will the seal fisheries last? Suppose the
waters to be thrown open to all nations to
take these fur-bearing animals, as the doc
trine of an open sea would permit, how
many seasons would elapse before the seals
would be exterminated? Nearly all the
Illicit hunters take the seal in deep
water, as it is passing from one rookery to
another, practice that-and there is no
dispute on that score-will certainly ex-
terminate the animal. Moreover, these
irregular hunters take cows, calves and
bulls indiscriminately, whereas wise regu-
lation requires that only calves and Ger
tain others shall be taken, and only a
given number of adults. If the sea is de-
clared open, therefore, it will not take
three years to make the fur-bearing seal
and sea otter as scarce as is the buffalo that
civilization has driven from existence. i.
this wise policy to pursue?

A SAN FRANCISCO Court has decided a
novel question: whether the child of a
slave, born in slavery of a marriage accord
ing to the custom of the cruel slavery DAYS
and under code that denied legitimacy
of such marriages, can inherit the fathers
estate, he having gained his freedom nnder
the emancipation proclamation Of Presi-
dent Lincoln The Court holds that eman-
cipation, which gave civil rights TO the
parents, legalized the marriage, nowit :
standing that the husband subsequently
married a second wife under the slavery
system and brought her into free State,
and there recognized her as his lawful
wife. This is a sensible Judgment, and
accords with the reason and the equity of
the case, though the Court declares that
there is no precedent for it in this country.
1t is well that the Court made the first
precedent, that it may be of possible ben
eft to any remaining ex-slayes who have
been in doubt as to their relations to wives
and children had in slavery. We may be
pardoned, however, for expressing doubt
if even at this late day any Court of a
Southern State would have arrived at the
same judgment

LONDON, August 25th.-The reports that
Emperor William and the Empress were
received al Strasburg and Metz with unan-
imous enthusiasm is not entirely true.
Not single native of Alsace or Lorraine
who was not under official compulsion
participated in the receptions. They re-
manned within their residences or places of
business and refused to decorate or cheer.
All the hurrahing was done by German
officials and the official classes of military
and the army followers and families I'M
ported from Germany.

Now IT is Mr.. Depew who testiies to
the poverty of the American exhibit at
the Paris Exposition. 1t appears to hu-
initiate all intelligent Americans who
search out the meager display this country
makes. But the outcome is precisely what
the REcoRD-UNIoN warned the people
would result at the time of the hot debate
concerning appropriations for the proposed
London exhibition of California products.
1t will be remembered that this journal
proved froH, the instructions of the Amer
lean Commissioners, and the regulations of
the Board of Promotion of the Exhibition,
that an American success at Paris was
impossible, and that any attempt to make
an exhibit there would be wasted energy.
The refusal to permit States to group their
exhibits, the rule that requires all classes
of goods from one country to be distributed
into corresponding departments, the re-
fusal of the American Commission to
demand distinct space for States, all indi-
Gated what the result must be. Added to
these facts was that other, that the Amer
lean Commission, early in its existence,
developed proofs of its total failure to APP
preciate the situation, and that it was I'M
able to see that the United States must be
placed in very unenviable light by the
rules of the exposition, which were ad-
justed with an eye single to giving France
the lions share of display, praise and
premium awards, and hence it did not
require prescience of a remarkable order
to forecast the humiliation that has been
visited upon our people. We have one
thing at least to be thankful for, and that
is, that California did not waste any money
in making an attempt to display her
products at Paris, as some of our citizens
endeayored to have the Legislature do.

As was anticipated the cruiser Charles
ton has proved entirely successful on her
trial trip, Running in heavy sea that
tossed her about violently, and kept one or
the other of her twin screws out of the
water third of the time, she developed
about 600 horsepower, and averaged 49,
knots for run of six hours, or two
hours more than the contract requires, thus
demonstrating that under such conditions
as should have prevailed the ship can ex-
coed the required 10 knots rate of speed
under maximum steam pressure. The
success of the vessel is triumph not only
for her enterprising constructors, but for
the State of California. We gain rank
and Importance in the estimation of the
people of the East, just in proportion as
we demonstrate our ability to handle great
and national matters 1t is these that
command for us place in the considera-
tion of the people of the East, and exact
their acknowledgment. more than the
products of the California soil. 1t was for
that reason that we have always urged our
political leaders to present California men
at national conventions and assemblies for
preierment, and to stand by them, for by
so doing we prove our capacity to produce
men worthy to be honored by the nation
