and every railway train brings iu crowds of

It's wonderful, alter all, how much differ

or not. I remember, a good many years ago,
the I'rince d'Joinville paid us a visit and had
a grand time. A week or two sitice, he pass
ed through Philadelphia, stopped at a public
bouse, and remained and went unnoticed.
Since his first visit his father lost his throne,
the Prince his prospects and his attraction.
Since the above was written, the Japanese
have enjoyed a day's rest, although ihe Sab
bath was desecrated by a noisy crowd around
the hotel, watching every window, and send
ing up shouts at the appearance of every sal
low face ; and, to-day. the same throng has
waited patiently the ingress and egress of the
various persons of the embassy, and were
alike lavish of admiration of princes aud
servants.
The Japanese area singular people even in
appearance. They are the most animated
heathen I have ever seen, and seem perfectly
at home. It is highly amusing to see a dozen
or two of their Llick heads out of the win
dows, grinning and bowing to the crowd be
low ; throwing kisses to the Ladies at the Ui-
rard House, opposite ; watching the various
groups through opera glasses; and turning
every now and then to shake hands in their
quick, nervous wav with every visitor,
As the papers will give yon the details of

To tbe Editor! of the "Star I Chronicle
The Douglas Meeting in Philad'a
Lame on, according to the programme, at
Concert Hall, on .Monday evening. A heavy
thunder shower rather dampened Ihe enthusi
asm of "the unterritied ;" but about 9 o'clock
the crowd began lo assemble, ttiill, at no
time during its progress, did the demonstra
tion equal in numbers and character the re
cent monster gathering of the People's party.
Iu one respect, at least, the affair was a fail
ure. The "big guns" promised, turned up
missing; and, with a single exception, the
speakers were worn-out local politicians. A
long list of officers was read; cne of the
Vice Presidents named, the very day of the
meeting, told me he was strongly opposed to
Douglas so nis name was used unwarranta-
. One feature I must not forget to speak
ol. Kelore tne meeting amimtncrd, the repor
ters were furnished with the speeches of
nearly all the Orators, written oui; and the
cream of the joke is, they were already plen
tifully interlarded wnn ("applause ) ("great
cheering") ("immense enthusiasm") etc!
The remarks of some of the speakers pos
sess significance at this lime, just on the eve
of the Baltimore Convention. For instance,
Hon. Richard Vaux said, "Should the Con
vention not heed our voice (i.e. not take Dou
glas) the duty which compels all true Demo
crats to support us actions and its nomina
tions, will find us ready to obey." And the
resolutions, while urging Douglas, squint to
ward acquiescence in tne selection ol anoth
er. It looks ranch as if til worshipers of
tne a.itiic uiant were Deing prepared lor a
gentle let down at iiaitimore. ion mar de
pend upon it, thai, let that Convention do as
it may, "the house is divided," and a greater
than man has said that such a structure can
not stand. If Douglas is nominated, hundreds
of prominent southerners are pledged lo op

On accouutof tbe treacherous coral reefs
abounding iu the neighborhood, and the
constantly varying currents and eddies of
the Gulf Stream, the Hanks (of which ibis
island forms a part) witness many a noble
vessel ending her days in sight of this c zy
little island. A large portion of tbe peo
ple are engaged diivctly or indirectly in
assisting vessels in distress, or in saving
wrecked property. Several million dollars
worth of property are annually brought
into this port, for the decision of the Ad
mirality court iu reference to the salvage
due tbe wreckers. They reap their harvest
from tbe misfortunes of others. This is
in fact the great sourco of revenue, although
considerable moucy is made in collecting
sponges, and also in providing fresh fish
fur the Havana markets.
Although the island is nothing bnt coral
rocks, still, a light covering oi sandy soil
nourishes considerable shrubbery in a wild
state. Tbe island generally can not be
cultivated. Iu the city, by forced efforts,
they have succeeded in surrounding their
pretty cottage homes with a great abun
dance of flowers and trees. Tbe cocoa-nut
and other palms are the pridcof tbe island,
giving it a truly pleasing and tropical ap
pearance. The Harbor of Key West, is one of the
best in our Southern States, and on this
account has been selected by the Govern
ment as a naval station. It is now being
protected by tbe erection of a maguifieent
fortification, named "Fort Taylor," aud it
is estimated that it will cost over one mil
lion of dollars beforo completion. Id ease
of a war with any maritime nation, tbe
poscssion of Key West will bo invaluable
to us, both as a safo retreat for our mer
chantmen, and as a convenient harbor for

Oar crops never looked more promising
than they do this spring. We are having ram

year, and some of the Wheat was sown in

account of the horrid treatment on their
voyage from Africa, are still weak aud
sickly, and must probably die. I am glad
to say that not a single one of the Crusa

several of, them, however, are quite sick.

of onr Democratic friends who are so sad
over the disappointment of the illustrious
son of New York :
"The Democrats feci very bad about tbe

him as the great Statesman, the high
minded and noble Republican, whom they
wanted to rule over them for the next four
years, we sympatoise wuu tueui iu mvu

by two o'clock, our arrangements were
so far completed tbat we commenced tbe
sale of tickets. The place selected for
this purpose was under a largo thatched
roof. Ibe crowd bad been gradually in
creasing for an hour previous, and by this
time the excitement had become intense;
what with tbe squealing of hogs and pigs,
gobbling of turkeys, crowing of roosters
and cackling of bens, rattling of cocoauuts,
spilling and squashing of oranges and
limes, the rolliug of pumpkins under feet,
all together with the Uabcl-like jargon of
the natives, formed the most laughable
public excitement I ever witnessed; not
excepting tbe excitement got up Dy liar-
num's auction sales of choice scats at tbe
Jenny Lind concerts at Castle Garden,
New York. The confusion was great, tbe
swine and poultry having evidently enter
ed into tho excitement with as much spir
it and earnestness as tbe human popula
tion, all apparently vicing with eachother
in trying to make tbe most noise. We
found it would be impossible to stick to
our "regular prises" for tickets; so we
concluded to take everything that was
brought with which to purchase tickets.
While it required twelve of the ship's
crew to receive the "currency," placiug
each kind on its respective pile, tbat is,
nutting tbe bogs, tied by the leg., in one
place, the poultry, tied eight or ten to-
gether, in another, and ibe coeoanuts,

four or five other persons to distribute tbe
tickets. The ticket distributors had a busy
time of it, though their labors did not re
quire any very great exertion.

tixit one tickets bad been disposed of, and
everything that bad been offered in tbe

Physiological research has fully estab
lished the fact tbat acids promote the sep
aration of the bile from the blood, which
is then passed from the system, tbus pre
venting fevers, the prevailing disease of
summer. All fevers are "billious,"'that
is, the bile is in the blood. Whatever is
antagonistic to fever, is "cooling." It is
a common saying that fruits are cooling,
and also berries of every description; it is
because tbe acidity which they contain,
aids in separating the bile from the blood;
tbat is, aids in purifying tbe blood. Hence,
tbe great yearning for greens, lettuce, and
salads iu the early spring, these being ea
ten with viuegar ; hence also the taste for
something sour, like lemonade, in an at
tack of fever. But, this being the ease, it
it is easy to see that we nullify the good
effects of fruits and berries, in proportion
as we eat them with sugar, or even sweet
milk or cream. If we eat them in their
natural state, fresh, ripe, perfect, it is al
most impossible to eat too many, or eat
enough to hurt us, especially if we eat
them alone, not taking any liquid with
them whatever. Denec,a!so, is buttermilk,
or even common sour milk, promotive of
health in summer time. Sweet milk tends
to biliousness in sedentary people ; sour
milk is antagonistic. The Greeks and
Turks are passionately fond of sour milk.

TDK SEW CHAPTER.
3. Retohed, By the Dolrgates of tba
several Annual Conferences in General
Conference assembled, that tbe following
be, and hereby is,jsubsti:uted in the place
of the present Seventh Chapter on Slavery.
Question Wbat shall be done for tha
extirpation of the evil of Slavery ?
Axswsb We declare that we are as
much as ever convinced of the great evil
of Slavery. We believe that the buying.
eliing or holding of human beings, to bo
used as chattels, is inconsistent with tha
Golden Rule, and with that Uule in our
Discipline which requires all who desire to
eontiaae among usj 'do no barm, aad to
avoid evil of every kind." We, therefore,
affectionately admonish all our preachers
and people to keep themselves pare from
this great evil, and to seek its extirpation
by all lawful and Christian means.
As tbe Constitution, however, requires
a two-thirds vote for an amendment of tha
Discipline, and this lacked tea votes of
lhat proportion, no change is wrooght ia
the Discipline, bnt tbe vote npon the sub
ject shows progress ia Che right direction.
