tEl),..Congr,e,as has appropriated $50.000
for the entertainment of the Japanese
Embassy, which recently arrived at San
Francisco. The Embassy in question is
the most important one that has ever been
dent to this country. At the head of it
is the Prime Minister, and thole are also
several members of the Mikado's Cabinet.
The whole party numbers one hundred
and fifty persons. Among them are twen
ty-three youths who come as students,
and five young women who are to bo sent
to some seminary. The official rank of
the men of this Embassy give it an impor
tance beyond that of any former party of
Japanese that has visited America and
Europe. The Mikado, who seemes to have
become thoroughly imbuded with the A
merican spirit of progress, sends this dep
utation, with special instructions indicat
ing this spirit, and the members are them
selves said to be thoroughly progressive.
The fact is, Japan is sure to become, to a
large extent, Americanized, and the visit
of this new body of enlightened men, on
a mission to study our institutions, social
and political, is destined to hasten the
completion of the work.

A gentleman of high social position
living in this county bas a son engaged
as a clerk in a large mercantile house in
Omaha. A few weeks ago the father re
cieved a letter from his son to the effect
that he had been robbed of $5,000 be
longing to his employer while returning
from a collecting trip into the country.—
The father was naturally troubled by the
intelligence, and when he retired to his
room for the night he lay awake for some
time thinking of the occurrence. At
last he fell asleep, and, as it seemed to
him, he was sitting by a table in . a bed

of a robbery in which they had just•been

agw,. A similar law was enacted several
years since for several counties, Franklin
included, when the parties in this county,
in whose favor the discrimination ,was
made, at once doubled their advertising
rates for such notices.- Persons in this town
ship, administering upon estates were con
pelled to pay the publishers in Chambers
burg ten dollars instead of getting the saw
work done here for two dollars and fifty
cents. This too, in the face of the fact,
that on; paper circulated generally in the
section to which the business of the de
eeased-was-confinedovhilst that of the se-
Zeds was confined ton scattered few. The
law was felt to be odious and oppressive
and the citizens of our county petitioned
the Legislature and had it promptly re
pealed. What was true in this region at
that day would doubtless again be enac
ted here and elsewhere should the bill un
_under consideration be finally passed and
become a law. The present" moven7eri
therefore only the renewal of an old piece
of strategy among a class of mercenary
publishers to get at the pockets of those
who may have estates to settle up. The
unfairness, if not down right rascality, be
hind this .movement, is too apparent to
esca e detection. The member of the Leer-
islattirewho would vote for the enact=
went of a law so unrighteous would merit
the execration of men of all parti.

Examination Day incuincy.
The sun rose clear on ,the morning of
the first of August, eighteen hundred and
seventyone. That morning had long been
the subject of our thoughts. It must be
confessed, that it' was. looked forward to
with some serious Misgiving, by some of
us at least. At the close of that day we
expected, to see all we knew , summed up
on a piece of paper.
I think we were all a little fearful of
the result. Our worthy Preceptor, Mr.l.
W. Brown, tried to keep us in good spirit
about it. , At lennth„ the eventful hour ar
rived. The school house was well filled
with-those-who-wished to engage in teach
ing school. Our County Superintendent
arrived about nine o'clock. He proceed
ed to examine us, first in Orthography. 7
Some of our class felt pretty, nervous• at
first, but we soon partially_regained our
selfcoutrol. The next branch which ' our
superintendent thought fit to examine us
on was Arithmetic.
Some of the teachers did not seem to
understand this branch very well. The
next in order was Grammar. 'One of the
sentences given us to parse caused some
of the teachers a good bit of trouble. One
teacher wished to introduce a new pmt' f
s • eech called '!oose feathers.' Another
tried to analyze a sentence, and steppe ,
to say that he had never' studied books
"with them things in." . After dinner our
knowledge of Mental Arithmetic was tes-.
ted. Next came Geography. The' most
of us got along pretty well in this study.
We were next examined in History. All
seemed to understand it pretty well.
Next came Reading. Some of the teach
,: seemed to think the louder they could
yell the better t e rea • tug. ' h - e - 'Super.-
intendent then awarded us our certifi
cates. Arhen we received them we were
all•agreeably surprised. I think we all
got alontr better than we extected. After
