If there is anything that doe3 look ridiculous it is the air of midnight mystery, of profound secresy with whioh some people seek to invest their actions, thereby endeavoring to create the impression that the afore said actions are ot sufficient impor tance to make secresy necessary. Usually the contrary is the case. The majority of folks don't care a straw.

IX THE LEVANT. Coxstaxtixople, Jan. 27. The in habitants of Crete are greatly excited over the prospect of the arrival of the Greek squadron in Cretan waters. Only two Turkish ironclads are in that vicinity at present HOT WATER." Alice Harrisou and her Hot Water company drew a crowd last night Miss Harrison has come back to us as bright aud vivacious as when she won v. high place among theatrical favorites, and ou this occasion she has surrounded herself with a good company. The piece has no other purpose than to place the actors in a position to do thing3 that will make the audience laugh. The company includes Charles Dickson as "James McDoodles, Jr.," Frank Girard as "Hercules Heavy Weight," Frank David as "Col. McDoodles," Charles McCarthy as "Jane Ann O'Hooloran," George Kyle as "Professor Meekful," Fred. Mathews as "Brick Nimble," Jennie Beiffarth as "Amelia Helpall," Ada Morton as "Mrs. James McDoo dles," Helen Sedgwick as "Mrs. Col. McDoodles," Gertrude Baird as "Waitress," and Grace Leslie, Helen Leslie, Kitty Allen and Posey Stevens as the "Colonel's Four Fair Daugh ters." The company are well select ed for their work. Most of them can act after the fashion required iu this kind of piece, and all can sing and dance. Alice Harrison as "Mam'zelle Marie Bonfous" is the central figure, but not the ouly figure of promi nence. A good many singing and dancing numbers are introduced, some being adaptations from famous opera airs, and others written to or der on topics of the day. It is bright all the way through. S. F. Jiullttin, 12. THE "ANDERSON" RELEASED. The case of the United States vs. the steamer Eliza Anderson came up for trial in the district court yester day forenoon. Mr. White represented the United States and Maurice Mc Micken and J. F. MoNaught the steamer. After the evidence for the prosecution was all in, the defense moved for a nonsuit on the ground that no evidence had been adduced to show that the master of the steam er had auy knowledge that there were contraband Chinamen ou the boat, and also because it had not been shown that there was any attempt on the part of anybody connected with the boat to land the said Chinamen within the jurisdiction of the United States. Judge Greene decided that the points were well taken, and or dered the Anderson released and turned over to her owners. Captain Wright will call for a survey to be held on the vessel in order to ascer tain what damage, if any, she sus tained by drifting ashore while in the custody of the customs authorities at Port Townsend. The Anderson will be again placed on the route between Seattle and Victoria. Captain Thom as Wright was congratulated on all hands on the satisfactory termination of the matter.

The case of the state vs. the Ore gon board of pilot commissioners, charged with contempt of court in refusing to obey an injunction and alleged disrespectful language and demeanor regarding the court, came up in the circnit court at three o'clock yesterday afternoon. The board convened in secret ses sion last Monday, the principal busi ness beiug the trial of H. A. Snow on charges preferred by Capt Reed of the Win. IT. Htarbuck. The defend ant desired to be represented by his counsel, Geo. A. Dorris, who, it is al leged, was refused the privilege. It was his intent, so it is stated, to enter a protest against the manner in which the complaint and accompany ing affidavit was prepared, and upon the refusal of the board to allow him a hearing he asked and procured from the court a writ of injunction or dering a temporary stay of proceed ings. This writ was served on the board by Sheriff Ross n Tuesday af ternoon. It is alleged that the re ceipt of the document was the occa sion of sundry statements on the part of two membeVs of the board indica ting a want of respect towards the court from which the writ was is sued, and a desire to disregard the mandate. A large number of witnesses were examined and the case continued through the afternoon till the time of adjournment. The testimony was of. a contradictory nature, one side be ing positive and the other forgetful. The judge reserved his decision. SAN FRANCISCO NOTES. Sax Fkaxcisco, Jan. 26. In the habeas corpus case of Wo Lee, arrest ed for violation of the laundry ordi nance, which prohibits a laundry be ing carried ou in a wooden building within the city limits, U. S. Circuit Judge Sawyer and District Judge Sabiu rendered an opinion to-day. They hold that enforcement of the law would be little short of confisca tion of a large amount of property invested in laundries, and though be lieving the ordinance to be in contra vention of the fourteenth amendment of the United States constitution, de clined to declare it iuvalid. Judge Sawyer said he preferred that the matter be carried to the supreme court of the United States on appeal, which will probably be done. Tho writ was released and the prisoner or dered in custody again. The cases of the president and sec retary of the Sam Yup Chiuese com pany in this city, who were arrested on complaint of Collector Hager, came before U. S. Commissioner Saw yer to-day. The men under arrest came here with certificates issued by the Chinese consul at Yokohama, and bearing indorsement by United States Consnl General Green. After consid erable argument conusel for the Chi- i nese introduced circular rulings of j the treasury department to prove that the certificates were properly made out, and Commissiouer Sawyer dis missed the charges, aud both men were allowed to land. One of the most serious charges brought against U. S. Consul Greeu baum, at Apia, Samoa, in the petition to Secretary Bayard, which asks for his removal, is contained in an affida vit bv a Chiuese merchant, Ah Sue, who a wears Mr. Greenbaum tried to make arrangements with him where-' by Chinese could be brought from j China to Samoa, and furnished with certificates there which wonld permit them to enter the United States. Each Chinaman was to be charged 8100, and this amount was to be equally divided between Ah Sue aud Greenbaum. The custom house officials seized 000 pounds of prepared opium, valued at 811,000, on the Pacific Mail dock to-day. It was packed iu fourteen cases, part of them resembling tea chests aud part Chiuese oil cases, and was brought here on the Pacific Mail steamship City of New York, which arrived Sunday last. The packages were marked "P. L.," and were not entered on the ship's manifest The discovery of the last, fact led to the seizure. Wide Aivuke Druggi!. Messrs. V. E.

Sailed from Panama bound to Portland December 11th, 'S3, and for the first twelve days had nothing but calms and bafiling winds until lat 1 37' N., Ion. SO 32' W. was reached; then had a fresh southeast trade from thence to lat. 5 -IS" X., Ion. 115 W. On tho oth of January, '86, got tho northeast trades very unsteady which carried us to lat. 23" X., Ion. 128 W. Bad weather commenced on Jan. 17th in lat 29 N., 129 ' W., with hard southwest and west gale.s and high seas, and on January 20th had a learlul storm m Jat. d 25 N., Ion. 130 31' W. It commenced at 4 a. m. from SSW, and hauling to WSW with torrents of rain and a mountain of a sea getting up, heaving the ship almost on her beam ends aud shifting some ballast At 1 p. sr. it blew a perfect tempest and one sea struck her so heavy that it threw her right on her beam ends with all the ballMt shifted and the lee yard arras and rail right in the water ship under bare poles and every moment expect ing it to be her last Commenced to pour oil on the sea which eased her a little; got all hands in the hold and some shifting boards put up and com menced to pitch over ballast and in four or five hours succeeded in get ting her up a little, but it took all hands until midnight to get her up enough to make sail. The lowest reading of the barometer was 29.10. After midnight it fell almost calm and we were thankful to God for keeping us safe through such a try ing time. I have no doubt but the pouring of oil on the water saved a good deal of heavy force in regard to the breaking of the sea, but it could not keep down the high roll; and in fact the sea was higher thau ever I have seen it off Cape Horn or the Cape of Good Hope during au expe rience of forty years. Very bad weather continued from the above date until we reached the month of the Columbia river noth ing but gale after gale from the WSW to SE with fearful seas and torrents of rain, ship laboring heavy most of the time. At 330 r. ir., on the 2oth mst received Mr. Malcolm, pilot on board from the tug Astoria; however we could not get in, there being too much sea on the bar; so stood off during the night on port tack, wind springing up from SE, barometer falling and a heavy gale coming ou, put her under low can vas, sea rising up very high. On the morning of tho ilbtli had to lay her to uuder lower main-top-sail alone, ship laboring very heavy. January 27th, weather moderating and barometer rising to 30, mado sail and at 2:30 p. ir. crossed the bar; at 3 o'clock were taken in tow by the tug Columbia and arrived at Astoria all well, 47 days from Panama.

From tho dock have issued at vari ous times witty sayiugs and pert r marks; aud it is not an uncommon occurrence to fiud prisoners, whom pecuniary considerations prevent from employing counsel, exhibit won derful tact and ingenuity on behalf of their cause. Doubtless every one has heard of the Irishman who, in reply to the question, "Guilty or not guilty':" said "he would like to hear the evidence before he wonld plead." "Which way did these stairs run?" a witness was ouce asked; and his reply was that "it depended on cir cumstances. If you were at the bot tom they run up; but if you are at the top they ruu down." "If you don't stop that coughing," said an irritable judge to an old gentleman in court, 'I will fine you 100." I will give you 200 ir y..n will stop it for me," was the q'lick reply. "Prisoner at the bar." said a judge, "is there auythiug yon would wish to say before sentence 13 passed upon you?"' The prisoner looked toward the door, and remarked that he would liko to say "good evening," if it was agrecablo to the com pauy. One of tho most noted criminal lawyers in the country, while plead ing the cause of his client, is often overcome by his inocence and wrongs, and is obliged to sit down and recov er himself. "Don't you think," said a judge to him, "that the jury have fonud out your movemeuts by this? "Ah, you forget," said the barrister; it is always a new jury be fore whom I play."

Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, conservative leader, gave notice in the commons this afternoon that the government would introduce a bill to suppress the Irish riatlOlinl lprirrnA nml nllinr ilnTirrornno societies, to prevent intimidation, to project lite and property, autt to maintain nnlilif nnlor in Trnlnnd. This nniiniinivMTipnt Tvntj trrpffp! wiMi loud cheers. Sir Michael said he would ask the house to give the bill precedence. He added that this measure wonld be followed by a bill dealing with the Irish laud question on lines of policy indicated by the land purchase act of the last ses sion. An urgent appeal has been issued by the tory whips to the conservative membersof parliament to be present to participate in the divisions to take place to-night, as defeat will involve the resignation of the cabinet. In the commons to-night .Mr. Col lings moved his amendment to the address on the subject of allotments. Mr. Gladstone strongly supported Mr. Colling's amendment, and the Marquis of Harrington opposed it. Sir Michael Hicks-Beach said the government would willingly accept the decision of the house, as they had assumed office with reluctance and would resign withont regret. The amendment was nrlonfed hv n. vntp of 329 to 250, the government thus uemg ueteatcd.
