NOVEMBER 24. 1858. ~ ~ !~ ~~~~ WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1868. 1; Two Ways of Telling a Stoty. Nations, like individuals, are thin-skinned. They do not like having their faults freely pointed out to thorn, by other people, but', freely make a clean breast, of their own accord, and say a thousand times worse 01 themselves than the most caustic outsiders could possibly declare. But there is a way of doing this which somewhat changes the matter. Let us illustrate this by a little, anecdote. Many years ago, yet within tho memory of men in middle ago, a commission de lunatic° inquircndo was issued, by Lord Chancellor ELDON, and tho late Earl of Perm- MOUTII was the object of this investigation. Persons with - know the literary history of the time will recollect that Lord PORTS MOUTH married the handsome daughter of Mr. HANSON, (MARY ANNE, by name,) —that This marriage took place in 1814 —that, Hanson being his solicitor, Lord BYRON gave ' the bride away—that ho . journalised the young lady as "a good girl" —that he made- a blunder when, in loco pa-,' rends, lie joined the hands of the happy putting their left bands together—arid that, nine years afterwards, when the Portsmouth filthily came before the public, in consequence of her infidelity and her husband's imputed want of brains, BYRON wrote from Genoa, just' before leaving Italy for Greece, that, when ho assisted at the wedding, as aforesaid, C , I could not foresee (said he) that a man was to, turn mad, who had gone about the world for: fifty years, as competent to vote (in the House of Lords,) and walk at largo ; nor did ho seem to me more insane than any other person going to bo married." Well, this Earl of PORTSECOUTII, supposed to be insane, because ho married an attorney's daughter, because she occasionally adminis tered correction to him through the instru mentality of a horsewhip which her . strong hand and willing heart joined to lay se verely across his shoulders, and because lie had a curious penchant for attending funerals, which he described as black jobs,—this Earl was subjected to a solemn inquiry as to his sanity. The result was that he was declared non compos m snits, and poor Miss Hanson, the lady of the horsewhip, as aforesaid, was act ually un-Countossed, in 1828, by the House of Lords declaring tho marriage to be null and void. During the examination of witnesses,' at at which his Lordship attended daily; seem ingly taking much interest in the proceedings, and sometimes laughing as heartily as any other spectator at tho amusing stories of his fatuity that were sometimes related, evidence was given that, on ono occasion, a box of oysters having arrived, as a present, at Murat-' bourne Park, (one of hia country residences,) and the butler finding a difficulty in opening it, the Earl, who was passing by while the do mestic was in this dilemma, curtly said, ci Put it on the tiro, and it will gape." Oddly enough, counsel on both sides seized upon this expres sion. On one side, it was submitted as a piece of imbecile foolery; while, on the other, it was adduced as a spirited stroke of Wit; the box being known to contain oysters, and it being the quality of oysters to gape when placed upon the fire Somewhat like this double meaning is the way in which ridicule of a country may be received. Tho same facts, coming from dif ferent quarters, may bo difikrently accepted as abusive or only amusing. Suppose that an English tourist, for example ? devotes aclsp i -L ter to show tliarfile - p - eaple of tbls country are tricksy, and determined to take advantage of verdant foreignerki--if such natural curiosi ties are to be encountered. The satirist will say, ig Moreover, these Americans aro so sharp that it behoves you to sleep with your mouth shut, for fear that they draw out your eye-teeth. They sell you a cargo of Cincinnati hams or Molucca nutmegs, and when you receive the articles, they turn out to bo imi tations, cut out of wood, and curiously color ed to imitate the realities. They treat you to a bottle of wino, perhaps, after they receive your money, and the state of your head and stomach tells you, next morning, that you have boon drinking Jersey cider, impregnated with a sweetening of suganof-lead, and made to effervesce by carbonic acid gas, forced into it by machinery." Such a relation as this-would be tho cause of a great deal of anger, and excite much dis conte..t. Hero, we would say, is another con founded John Bull at the old task of vilifying this country. Hero Is a worthy companion of the COHBETTS and the BASIL 'ling, the I:n=om and the FEARONS, the MARRYATTS and the CHARLES MASKAYS. Here he is, ri diculing and libelling us, and ho is a thousand leagues distant, so that wo cannot have the satisfaction of treating him to a ride upon a rail. But lot us imagine another way of review ing the matter—aa in the above-cited Ports month ease. Suppose that, not John Bull but Brother Jonathan has the telling of the story, and that ho relates the facts as ono dilating on native shrewdness a.d sharpness, iu a ;nail nor something like this : Wall, about the sharpest thing over done in those parts was a spekilation out of which an uncle o' mine once made a heap of the almighty, dol lars. You soo ho swapped oil' a big lot of tin kettles agin a pile of lumber, which EZEKIEL SMITH, down below, had toss ing about In his barn for many a long year. SMITE, you see, had boon brought up to tho upholster business, and had bought this lumber down on the wharf, at Philadelphlo, thinking it was first-rate mahogany from Hon duras, whereas it was only bastard mahogany from Jamakoy, and of small account. Whoa Smolt found ho could not fix it, no how, into chairs and tables and chests of drawers, he lot it lio, until my uncle made traffic with him for the tin kettles and saucepans. Wall, Unelo was rather took aback, when ho found tho ma hogany worse than ho expected. But, being a man of ingenuity, he saws the logs, up into small lengths, and, on winter nights, when ho could do nought else, fashions them off, with axe and adze, into shape and form of regular dried pork hams. Ito jilt hatched 'um off with a little brown paint, and I'm blessed if you could know, without cutting 'em, which was the true ham and which the wooden. That winter was dreadful long, I toll you, and Uncle, who had a turning-lathe in the corner of the kitchen—which was parlor and draw ing-room, too—made a lot of wooden nutmegs, as natural-looking as eyes over soo. Wall, there come up a Britisher Into thoso parts, who had a mighty good conceit of him. self, I can tell yen. He was snowed up In Uncle's house for a matter of five days, and kept always n-bragging of the sharp tricks ho was everlastingly doing, In tho way of trado. Tho•crltter was almighty knowing—ln his own thout. So, ono day, after ho had oaten his fill of real ham and eggs, and was a-moistan ing of his clay with some aplondacious rye 'Oda key from Westmoreland county—where kegs are scarce, as Amax writes me--ho says that he never aced nor tasted a finer ham, and look ' ing up at the ratters, whore two or three hun dred of the mahogany hams was hanging, by way of ornament, and to give appearance of plenty, ho asks uncle if lie would sell them. Uncle puffed away at Ida pipe, not to seem in a hurry, and said if he'd take tho lot as thoy was, ho might havo 'em all at P. matter of nine cents a pound ; whereas the wholesale prico all over the country was four teen cents. Britisher jumped at tho offer, Palled out his pocket-book, had the invoice mado out directly, agreed that, for another cent in the pound, uncle should deliver them ontoo the British barque Victoria, then lading at Delaware wharf, in Philadelphy, and stump ' ed down the money, on tho nail, without over ; asking for discount.

Hams is twenty-live cents a pound in Lunnon-town, and as Sir ROBIERT PEEL'S tay-reef lets 'em in now, without duty, I fancy I shall make a good deal by this spec.' Well, Uncle being in high good-humor, for if the other had the wooden hams, he had the mopuses, goes and gets a couple bottles of Jersey cider, which ho had in the cup board. ' Ono was In a champagne bottle, with a blue Hoidsick label on't, and the Ed , fisher collars that, and drinks it off in tumblers. It riz into his head, and ho calls out c Master, is there any thing else you'd like to sell V So, uncle bethought himself of the nutmegs, and I'm blessed if, without ever putting his teeth into one on 'em, his soft customer didn't buy a couple bushel of 'em at half a dollar a pound. He paid the money for them, too, and Uncle was so libe ral that ho wouldn't make any charge for car rying them on board the barque moored at Delaware wharf, down in he ,city of Philadelphy. What the Lennon ;chap said when he found out how he !had took himself In, ' is more than I over heord on. But I am very sure 'that he must have chuckled all tho voyage I lupine at the thought of how cleverly he took in my poor ignorant uncle. He laughed at 'the other side of his mouth, I guess, the first time he had one of them hams served up to Ns dinner, after tolling his friends what a pre t4lous fine bargain he had bought them at, all 'the way off in Pennsylvany. Surely, of all I the sharp men I over knowed, Uncle JAnzz was the sharpest. Yoa would have heerd htm tell the story, never smiling all through, but his eye twinkling, just as if that was laughing at every syllable of it. Uncle's dead now— but I guess we can find a bottle of that same Westmoreland county rye whiskey that he treated the London ham-buyer with. It came to rno with the farm when Undo died, and there may bo a keg of it in the cellar yd. Lot's in and drink his health—memory, I ought to say." Now hero are two ways of telling the same story—ono in which American traders aro held up as unmitigated swindlers, passing off mahogany hams and wooden nutmegs as real —the other, rotated on the part of the vendor, in which credit Is pleasantly claimed for su perior sharpness.

Vol. 27, page 245.1 af:NEnea, J/CICEO2I TO DR. COWMAN WMILIINOTON CITY, April 20,1824 But I have had the honor this day to receive your letter of the filet instant, and with candor shall reply to it. My name has been brought before the nation by the people themsolves, with out any agency of mine ; for I wish it never to be forgotten that I have never solielted office; nor, when called upon by the constitutional Authorities, have ever deolined where 1 conceived my cer vices could bo beneficial to my country. But, as my name has boon brought before the nation for the first office in the gift of the people, it is la oututiont on me, when asked frankly, to declare my opinion Upon any political national question pending before, and about which the country feels an interest. Tots ask my opinion on the tariff. I answer that I am in favor of a judicious examination and revision of it; and so far as the il iff bill before us embraces the design of fest( .sg , protooting, and preserving within ourselves t e moons of na tional detour's and indopendenoe, particularly in ry state of war, I would advocate and support it. The oxporienco of the late War ought to teach us a lesson, and ono never to bo forgotten. If our liberty and republican form of government, pro cured for us by our revolutionary fathers, aro worth the blood and treasure at which they were obtained, it surely is our duty to protect and de fend them. Can there bo an American patriot, who saw the privations, dangers, and difficulties oxporlonood for tho want of the proper moans of clefonco during the last war, who would be willing ogain to hazard tho safety of our country, it embroiled, or to rest it for de fence upon the precarious moans of national resources to bo derived from commerce in a state of war with a 'twitting Power who might destroy that commerce to prevent us obtaining the moans of dofonoo and thereby subdue seal i hope there is rot; nod if there is, I am sure he does not do sage to mijoy the blessings of freedom. Heaven angled upon and gave us liberty and independence And notional defeneo If we omit or refuse to use the gifts which ho has extended to us, we deserve not the continuation of his blessings. 110 has filled our mouutains and our plains teeth minerals, with loud, iron, and copper, end given us oliraato and soil for the growing of hemp and wool Those halos the grand materials of our notional defence, thoy ought to have extended to thous adeqoato and fair proteotion, that our manufnotursrs and laborers may be placed in a fair competition with thoaa of Europe, and that we luny have within our eoun'ry a supply of those leading and important articles so essential in war. Iloyond this, I lark at the tariff with on oyo to the proper distr buds's] of labor mid revenue, and with a view slisokarge our national debt. I am one of those who do not believe that a national debt is a na tional blessing, but rather a curse to a republic, inasmuch as it ia calculated to raise around the Adminietration a moneyed aristocracy dangerous to the liberties of the country. This tariff—l moan a judicious ono—possesses more fanciful than real clangor. 1 will ask. What is the real situa Lion of the agriculturist? 'Whore has the Ameri can farmer a market for Ilia surplus product T Ex cept for cotton, ho hoe neither a foreign nor home market. Does not this clearly prove, when there is no market either at hone or abroad, that there is too much labor employed in agrioulturo, and that the channels for labor should no multiplied? Common sonso points out at onoo the remedy. Draw from ogrioulturo tie superabundant labor; employ it in meohanians and manufactures ; there by creating a home market for your breadstuff?, and distributing labor to the moot profitable no oount and benefits to the country. Take from agriculture in the UNITED STATES six hundred thousand men, women, and children, and you will at once give a home market for more Woad stuffs thou all Europe now furnishes us. In short, sir, we have been too long subject to the polloy of British merchants. It sa time that we should become a little snore Americanized, and instead of feeding the paupers and laborers of England, food our own ; or else, in a short titan, by continuing our present polloy, we shall all be rendered paupers ourselves. It Is, therefore, my opinion that a careful and judicious tarif is much wanted to pay our national debt end afford us the moans of that defence within ourselves on which the safety of our country and liberty depends; and last, though not least, give a proper distribution to our labor, which must prove beneficial to the happiness, indopendenoo, and wealth of the community. This Is a short outline of my opinions, generally, on the subject of your inquiry ; and believing them oorreot, and oaloulated to further the pros polity and happiness of my country, I declare to you I would not barter them for tiny office or situ• ation of a temporal character that could be given me. I bavo presented you my ()Onions freoly, beeline() I am without ooneealment, and should, indeed, despise myself if I could believe myself capable of desiring the confidence of any by moans so ig noble. I am, sir, very respectfully, your most obedient servant, ANDfHW JACKNON• Dr. L. 11. Col,sueN, Warrenton, /Oral Caroline. ] Patriot from the second annual menage of President Jackson, December 7, 1880 ] "Among the numerous causes of congratula tion, the condition of our impost revenue deserves epeeist mention, inasmuch as it promises the moans of extinguishing the public debt sooner titan was anticipated, and furnishes a strong lnstration of the praotioal effects of the present ta riff upon our oommoroial intereste. "The object of the tariff is objected to by some as unconstitutional ; and it is considered by almost all as defective In many of its parte. The power to impose duties on imports originally belonged to the several States. The right to adjust those du ties with a view to the encouragement of domestic branches of industry is so completely incidental to that power, that it is difficult to suppose the exist ence of the ono without the other. The States have delegated their whole autholity over imports to the General Government, without limitation or restriction, saving the very inconsiderable reser vation relating to their inspection laws. This autho rity having thus entirely pluspl from the States, the right to exercise it for the purpose of protection does not exist in them ; and, consequently, if it be not possessed by the General Government, it must be extinot. Our political system would thus present the anomaly of a people stripped of the right to fetter their own industry, and to counteract the most selfish and destructive policy which might be adopted by foreign cations. This surely cannot be the case; this indispensable power, thus sur rendered by the States, must be within the scope of tho authority on the subject expressly delegated to Congress. " In this conolusion I am confirmed as well by the opinions of Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe, who have each repeatedly recommended the exercise of this right under the Constitution, as by the uniform practice of Con gross, the continued acquiescence of the States, and the general understanding of the people." Reading, Railroad. [Prom Bannan's Pottsville Mining Journal.) The following is the business of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company for the month of Ootober : 1858. 1857. Received from Coal $200.761 96 $163,088 68 Id cram:ike... 56 520 67 20,049 02 Travel, 82,176 82 20,693 46 289,461 al 218,520 05 Transportation, roadway, dump• , ago, renewal fund, and all °larges 124,161 84 106 854 49 Net profits for the month 145,313 00 106,075 is Net profit for previous ten m 05.901,691 61 1,238,635 99 Total net profit for eleven m 05.1,047,064 61 1,345,611 55 We stated last week that the increase in the net reoeipts for Ootober would be larger than in Sow, tembor, and the above statement confirms it, For the month of November there will be no increase ; and there may be a slight falling Gff, leaving the net revenue for the year about $300,000 short of the previous year. The decrease in the coal ton nage over the road for the present year will be about 180,000 tons. We have received by mail a savage circular di rected against the management of the Reading Railroad, signed X. While it contains some whole some truths, we think its. extravagant character will defeat the object the writer has in view. The interests of Schuylkill county, and also those of the Reading Railroad, demand a change in the policy of the company, that will place our trade on an equal footing with other regions In all the markets. With a mine capacity sufficient to have sent a half million of tons more coal to market this year, we have lost a half million Goal ton-, nage within two years from this region, of which the railroad will lose at leant 500,000 tone, nearly all of which has been gained by rivals, having their outlets near Now York. We admit that the Railroad Company has had many difficulties to contend with ; but if they had been grappled'with at ence;they could have been averted in a groat measure. ' In these times of business activity and competition, a stand-still policy will not answer. When the declaration was made last spring by the president of the road, in convention with the officers of the rival roads, that the Reading Railroad would not negotiate on any other prin. oiplo than one looking to a recovery of Pa lost tonnage, the trade of Schuylkill county supposed it want something . ; but-with that declaration and the fixing °tithe tolls, (notwithstanding It was bent eons that rival routes had greatly the advantage over our railroad,) this policy was continued until the holders of Richmond wharves were forced to transfer a large portion of their business to the canal, in order to compete with rival dealers, while others became so disheartened with. the business, that they purchased coal from the New York companies at New York, instead of the ope. raters in Schuylkill county, and pushed their business at that point, while the trade was lan guishing at Port Richmond. The canal takes but a small portion of the business that the rail road lesos, and therefore the less of the rail road is nearly all a loss to the county, which 13 as mush an injury to the interests of the railroad as it is to Schttylkill county, Such lathe position of the railroad, that if the canal company possessed a suffieient number of care In this region, boati on on the canal and wharf facilities for transhinnient at Philadelphia, she would carry at least 60,000 tens per week, leaving from 10,000 to 20,000 tone for thevailroad—Suoh-oughtt not to -be the pied tion of these two companies contendinglor ;the same trade ; but we confidently appeal to every o4al operator in Schuylkill county for the truth of what we have 'here stated. Mr. Cullen thinks that coal rents ought to be reduced. Rents have been reduced from an ave rage of about thirty-three cents per ton to an ave rage of about twenty-eight dente per ton, within the last ten years; but as the leases are !wide for a oonsidereble time, they cannot be reached until they have run out. In many instances they are too high, wo admit; but so long as the improve .roents are made by the lessee on the property, the lessor has the advantage, and nothing but a sus pension of the colliery and the ruin of the ope rator will effect a roduotion; and not even then, sinless the landholder cannot find a person to take the colliery at the old rate of rent. There are ' a few, but not many, voluntary reductions made. The landholders are generally mon of capital-4n many instances they consider it an advantage to leave their lands lie idle sooner than to improve themselves; and act on this principle. But ft is not the interest of the managers of the railroad to purses such a policy. Every demand they can create for our staple than hastens its development, not only increases her ooal tonnage, but largely increases her passenger travel, and the merchandise and miscellaneous trade of the road, thus enabling her to reduce her rates, while at the same time she increases her not revenue by the increase of her bueinese Mr. Cullen thinks also that the rates of toll and transportation ought to be reduoed on our lateral railroads. So far as they can be reduced with safety they ought to be, and would unquestionably bene fit those who are operating on those road; but when we look to the interests of the Reading Bell road, we doubt exceedingly whether this polio , would benefit them to any groat extent. Some of our laterals pay well—others do not pay. If the tolls aro reduoed on the paying ones, it must necessarily tette a reduction of the tolls on the non-paying ones also, of the operators on those roads 'would be driven off to the more favored locations. This would crip ple the ability of the paying roads to make exten sions for further development or tho region—and the non-paying roads would fill into decay, and those portions abandoned. Such a polidy, while it might benefit individual operators on the roads where the reduction took place, would not tend to the dovelopinent of the region generally, and could not of aourso benefit the present interests of the Reading Railroad, depending, as it does, almost entirely on the trade of this coal region for its prosperity. The managers of the Read ing Railroad, if they not wisely, will adapt their pollee , to thinks just as thay are, and not as thry should he, particularly when they possess no power to coerce the different interests to confotm to their views. Every dollar invested hero feu the purpose of developing our resources, making la teral railroads, not destroying them, driving' tun note, building shafts, and increasing our popula tion, even if some of the operators should, through a reckless career, fail, will tend greatly to increase tonnage of every description, and largely enhance the value of the property of the railroad, by giving it full employment. Ono of the indispensable organizations connect- ed with the railroad ought to be the establishment of lines of steam-tugs running from Port Richmond to the East, carrying from four to six hundred tons of ooal. This experiment has boon tried in England, and nearly all the selling vessels have already been driven out of the business of carry ing coal from Now Castle to London. These tugs could run alongside of vessels and discharge their cargoes directly into steamers and other vessels at the different ports along the sea coast, without even landing the cent on the wharves, by means of ft hoisting apparatus erected on board the tugs. This would greatly facilitate business at Port Richmond. The project of building steam mai boats is also growing into groat favor from ex periments already wads in England, and also in this country on the Chesepenke and Ohio, and tho New York and Erie Canals. The New York Jour nal of Commerce states, that on the Erie Canal, with one of these boats, 40 cents a ton on tramper te Hon has boon saved between Buffalo and New York over mule power—and when the enlarge ment is completed, boats can be built to carry two hundred tons freight, and also tow another boat carrying 200 tons, at an expense of $1 per ton, ex elusive of tolls, between Buffalo and New York, inoluding interest on investment, ite. If this can bo acoomplishod on the Erie Canal, the same can be done en the Schuylkill Navigation in propor tion to the capacity of boats. The managers of the railroad must begin to prepare for this compe tition also. Tun NAME OP "MARY."—A. friend wants to know if it be rosily true that the Pope bee for bidden tho name of Mary to be given to children In future. Our answer is this: Could the concurrent testimony of the whole seoular and sectarian press of the country establish the truth of anything that regards CatholiCs or their (thumb, then would the foot of this pro hibition be unquestionable. For there is not one of thaw that has not given curronoy to this rumor—most of them, we know, without the least evil intention. But does not our friend know that the Papa is not in the habit of using the American press, political or sectarian, as the medium through which to make known his deorees? He proolkims them in Items, and transmits them to the bishops of the whole world. If he has pass ed any such law—which we aupposo out of defer ents to the united voice of the press, should not bo denied—all we eon say is, that it does not apply to American Catholics. Let cur parents, then, con tinue to do as they have been doing, ard without scruple, having no four of Roman Popo or Ameri can press before their eyes, give the sweet name of Mary to their children, whenever devotion may prompt them to do so."—Catholic Miscellany.

[From the London Times, of Nov. 9th.] We are enabled to state the more important stipulations of the treaty signed at Jeddo, on the 26th of last August. This treaty, in the first place, engages that there shall be perpetual peace and friendship between her British Majesty and the Tycoon of Japan; secondly, that her Majesty may appoint a diplomatic agent to reside at Jeddo, and the Tycoon a diplomatic agent to reside in London, both of them respectively to have the right of travelling freely to any part of the Em pire of Japan, and to any part of Great Britain ; also, either Power may appoint consuls or consular agents at any or all the ports of the other. The ports of Hakodadi, Kanagawa, and Nagasaki, in Japan, are to be opened to British subjects on the first of July, 1859. Nee-a-gate, or, if Noe-a-gate be unsuitable, another convenient port on the west coast of billion is to be opened on theist of January, 1860 ; Hiogo on the Ist of January, 1863 ; and British subjects may perma nently reside in all the foregoing ports, may lease ground, purchase or erect dwellings and ware &ages, but may not erect fortifications Within a certain distanoe of the specified ports they shall bafree to go where they please, or, speaking gen erally, they have a tether of some twenty to thirty miles around either of them. From the Ist of January, 1862, they will be allowed to reside at Jeddo, and from the Ist of January, 1863, at Osc an, for the purpose of trade. All qaestions of rights, whether of property or person, arising be tween themselves, shall be oubjcot to the jurisdic tion of the British authorities; if they commit any crime against the Japanese they will be tried and punished by their own authorities, and toes versa Japanese subjects in the same predicament will be tried and punished by theirs; but in either case the British consuls are to act in the first instance as amioable arbitrators In respect of debts con tracted on either side, the respective authorities will do their utmost to enforce recovery, but neither Government will be hold responsible for the debts of its subjeats. .The Japanese Govern ment will place no restrictions upon the employ ment by British subjects of Japanese in any lawful capacity. British subjects will be allowed the free exercise of their religion, and for this pur pose will have the right to erect suitable places of worship. Foreign and Japanese coin may hewed indifferently for commercial purposes. Supplies for the British navy may be stored at certain specified ports free of duty. If British vessels are wracked or stranded, the Japanese authorities will render every assistance in their power. British Merchants will be at liberty to hire Japanese pilots. Munitions of war aro to be the only ex ooptions to artislas of import- and export, which last, ou the payment of an ad valorem duty at the place of import, are to bo subject to no further tax, excise, or transit duty. Suoh articles may be reexported without the payment of any addi tional duty. The Japanese are to prevent fraud or smuggling, and to receive the benefit of all penalties or confiscations. The treaty is written in English, Japanese, and Dutob, the Dutch version to be considered the original. All offloial communications on the part of the British to the Japanese authorities shall, however, henoeforward be written in English, though for five years from the signature of the treaty, - to facilitate the trans action of business, they are to be accompanied by a Dutch or Japanese version. The treaty may be revised on the applioation of either of the con trading parties, on giving one year's notice after the Ist of July, 1872. All the privileges, immu• nitres, and advantages granted, or to be granted hereafter, by Japan to any other nation, are to be freely and equally participated by the British Government and its subjects. The treaty is to be ratified within a year from the day of its signature. .For the regulation of trade the artioles which are appended to the treaty are to be considered es forming a part of It, and as equally binding. The majority of those relate to the arrangements of the Japanese custom house, but the more im portant contain the tariff of duties to he levied. In the first glass, as free of duty, are specified gold and silver, coined or uncoined, - wearing apparel in actual use, and household furniture and . printed books, not intended for sale, but .tho property of persons who come to reside in Japan., On the see m:id elites a clutter fitEt per oent,only will be ley-, led, and this class nompriSca,all artielwnstod :for: the 'periioier Of 'building, rigging, repairing,' or• fitting out ships, whaling gear of all'kinds, salted provisions, bresil'and breadstuffe, living animals, coals, timber for building houses, Ate, paddy, steam machinery, sine, lead, tin, raw silk, cotton. and woollen manufactured goods.

ER ANCE TIM EMPEROR'S ',arm' TO MINOS NAPOLEON The Atonitour publishes the following letter, which the Emperor ban addressed to bis cousin, Prince Napoleon, Minister to Algeria and of the Colonies, of which a summary, received by tele graph, appeared in yesterday's impression " Sr. CLOUD, October 30, 1858. "My dear Collate I have the liveliest desire that, at the moment when the difference with Por toga!, relative to Charles Georges, has terminated, the (location of the engagement of free laborers on the African coast should be definitely examined and finally Settled on the truest principles of hu manity and justice. "I energetically claimed from Portugal the res titution of the Charles Georges, because I will nl. ways maintain intact the independence of the national flag; but, in this ease even, it was only with the profound conviction of my right that I risked, with the King of Portugal, a rupture of those friendly relations which I am glad to main tain with him. "But as to the principle of the engagement of the negrces ' my ideas are far from being settled. If, in truth, laborers recruited on the African coast are not allowed the exercise of their free will, and if this enrolment is only the slave trade in disguise, I will have it on no terms, for it is not I who will anywhere protest enterprises contrary to progress, to humanity, and to civilisation. I bog you, then, to seek out the truth with the zeal and intelligence which you bring to bear on all affsirs about which you employ yourself. " And as the best method of putting a term to what is a continual cause of dispute would be to substitute the free labor of Indian coolies for that of the negroes, I beg you to come to an under standing with the Minister of Foreign Affairs to resume with the English Government the ne gotiations which were entered upon a few months ago.

We extract the following from n letter from an esteemed friend at Washington.—Edztor Chicago Times : Wen'Norow, Nov. 15, 1858 DgAR FIIEATIAN 41 ` * I say " hurrah. for Douglas!" A greater triumph than his has never been achieved on battle field or forum. There is a moral grandeur about ,it which raises the victor to an eminence above and beyond the shafts of malignity, no matter from what quarter they may come. Do not let ns despair of the " in telligence" of the people as long as we aro per mitted to look upon such a mane as has lately transpired in your State A leader, without power or patronage, appeals to his constituents in behalf of a great principle. Opposed to him is a combina tion exhaustless in influence and money, and un scrupulous enough to use either in any way for the accomplishment of their ends. Unseduced by bribe, and unintimidated by power, the people march up to the ballot-box, and sustain the great principle so eloquently advocated by their patriotic statesman. Let others sigh and lament over the "decay and corruption'of the times," but as long as the great Northwest can held np to the world such instances of disinterested patriotism as this, the country is safe. All honor to Illinois, and due credit to you and others who have contributed to this glorious victory ! It would be amusing, if not so disgusting, to wit ness the contortions of certain Administration De mocrats here, when invited to take part in the re ception which is proposed to be given to Judge Douglas on his arrival in this city. How pure, fresh, and undefiled appears the spirit of the free men of your State when contrasted with the sling ing servility of the slaves about Washington, who as proudly wear the collar of their master! But they are in the minority, and the people of the metropolis will do full justice to the gallant states man who, apart from his distinguished position, has established for himself so many claims upon their gratitude. Washington never has had in the councils of the nation a truer and stronger friend than Judge Douglas ; and we know it, and are not afraid to tell him so, at any time, and at any place; and under any oircumstanoes. Hence, we will greet him upon ilia return—the frowns of others to the contrary notwithstanding.. E.
