Sdlisfactory Result of Cominthlore Perry's Visit Three Parts Opeved to AmcrkanTrtvic Arce tnci to Furnish Cofd to American Steamers InUftsting Narrative JJcUiiUd Account of Com vuxiQTt Perry's Second Visit. Site Susquehanna arrived at Hong Kong from Japan on the 21 April, bringing the gratifying intelligence that Commodore Perry had succeed ed In the objects of his mission in a manner that will confer honor on his country and enduring feme on fcimself. The precise Terms of a Com nercW Treaty had not been definitely arranged hen the Susnuchanna left the Yedo on the 24lh of March ;bu enough had been done to establish ft fritndlj feeling between the two countries, xne OTeninz of three or more ports to the Commerce of AmerU and tho furnishinc of Coals for the BteMnnnt motr lu rnnRulaml as matters Settled. and Captain Adams held himself in readiness to proeed in tho Saratoga to bear the intelligence to W Government at Washington. We ace enabled to furnish our readers with & 4ellhsd narrative of the Trrrl:n!rs in Jattan. i u - M fjtoffl wJc& H will be seen that nothing could have been better of more fortunate than the course pursued by Commodore Pkhry. Indeed we feel pretty certain that the most sk'lful diplomatist in Europe ccnld not have brought matters to so speedy, pacific, and successful an issue. Com modore Perry was known as a brave an well as accomplished seaman, but it wnslhoticht be had rather a propensity for frihling, which indeed, with such means at his disposal, and such people to deal with as the Jaj.anc.se were igr.orantly pre sumed to be, was deemed inevitable by most people, though, as our pages show, not by every one. Here however he has disappointed the world , and not a few in his squadron ; but he has done what we did not do i:i China, and it was not expected any one cculd accom plish in Japan, he ha.i peacefully and aiuicably opened it to the intercourse of his countrymen, without fil ing a shot or using a angry word. Commodore Perry, in the Sufquchannn, left the harbor of Hong Kong, on the 14th of Janua ry, accompanied hy the PovhcUnn and the Mis sissippi, the sailing vessels VutithJia, Soit'h map ion, Supplif and Lain "Ion. having some time le fore proceeded to the rendezvous at Naj akiang in Loo Choo, where the squadron met on lhc21st of January. Nothing cf importance occuml at Loo Choo lcyo-id visiting the capital, .Shuidi, with the temples and forts, and admiring, as others have done, the picturesque and surpassing ly licautiful sccr.c-y of the island. The sailing vessels were despatched f-r Japan ou the last day of January, under command cf j v.oik which extended from the shore to the hall, Captain Abbot, the steamships following en 7th end which shut cut the public gaze. Between 11 February, and along with the tloop Scn-lojn from nnd 12 o'clock, the marines having been muster Shanghre, joining the sailing vessels in the waters j ed by Mavor Zeilin, and the sailors by Lieutenant cf Japan on the 12th, without accident beyond j Ingram, the whole in twenty-nine boats under the temporary grounding cf the Muccdj.iiaii, which was lightened and speedily got oil". The whole squadron then proceeded and anchored in the bay of Yed , pausing Uraga, where !a.st year the interview and the delivery of the President's Letter took jilaoe. A few small forts, mounting ten or twelve guns each, were observed, but made no hostile demonstrations. Iloats were net al lowed to conic alongside until the vessels had ta ken their stations, and then Government officers wtre directed to the Po'.chat m, (to which the Commodore's flag had been removed,) where they had an interview on the loth with the Commo dore and Captain Adams, to whom, after the ex change of compliments, the Japanese staled that in a few days a rpecial high cfllcer would lie sent to Yedo fo meet theCoir.incdorc and arranrc eve rything in a curteous, frank, and friendly man ner ; bat they objected that the vessels had come too far up, and recommended their re'urn to Ura!, where the Emperor desired the meeting should 1 held as before; and that point tliey considerod us of more importance than talking about the weather, whMi subject would serin to be the pis-aller of conversation in Japan as in all the rest of the world. Wc believe this was near ly all that passed during the first interview, avid the deputation took leave in good humor, which grew to merriment, upon Captain Adam.? sugges ting, thr.t instead of returning to Uraga, perhaps more favorable anchorage uiiht be found high r up, and nearer the capital, which wo;;ld also to be Bent from Yedo. will as in cccorcancc with the customs of other nations. The followirg day (11th) another interview was held on board the Pvuhnt.m, when the Ja panese renewed their urccn.:y r.bout tne meeting licing held at Uraga, where on the previous occa sion everything had passed m so amirab.e and pleasant a manner, and to which the Commodore had said he would return. Finding that t raga was still objected to, they then proposed Kama- kura, where the Mare-hmiau had got ashore, and which they held to lx; a much more convenient place than Kanagawa, between the present an chorage and Yedo, r.s suggested by Dr. S. L. Williams. But after much talk on the subject, the Japanese at length left it to the Commodore to select a. place for the interview, .before taking leave, the deputation ail it tne snips nceueu water or provision.1?, boats would be tent with supplies ; but they were told that, except w&Ur, nothing else was likely to be required. After mature consideration, Commodore Perry- decided to send Cajtain Adams in the Vanrfxlia to meet the Governor ol the Province of I' raga. Captain Adams was there informed by the Go vernor that everything was ready for considering the terms of a treaty between Jajian and the ! United States, and if the Commodore (or, as nc was termed, the Admiral) would come to Urawi, it would be conrlmhd btfore the going dawn of the run. It is supposed, however, thtit what was here meant bv a treaty, was a favorauic reply iron. IUL- Km,:.... , ... r. .1.- T.' 1 r, !,., IVro , ,nt'i; I.ltr Oil - - . ... the KmVcct. Rut Captain Adams reiterated, that the Commodore would not come to Uraga, where he had found the anchora-o to be indifferent, but i that Com. Perry was fully satisfied on all points, Ucrr Riehler was pleased with this reply, and j He -a-ked his tostcr-.all.er to a.i.a.u c ui... iw o would meet the Japanese Commissioners at Yo- 1 suggested by him, which wc again presume were i still more with the boy's innocent, handsome j hundred dollars, which he did w ith great readi kohama,. off the present anchorage cf the flag- in accordance with Mr. Secretary Webster's letter face , ne-ss ; and the business prosper., so well that in thip, ten to twenty miles from Uraga. Captain Adams rejoined the squadron on the 2-ith Feb ruary, and the following day the Japanese of ficers visited the flag-ship to settle the jdacc of meeting; when tho Commodore, among other things, told them that, having been entrusted with so many ships, which wore seventeen thou sand miles from home, he was reasonable anxious about their safety, and experience had proved to him that Uraga did not offer so secure anchorage as where they now lay. Some discussion ensued, but finally it was arrangcol tLat the meeting should bo held at Y'okohama. Fdevcn days afterwards tho meeting too'.; place, and in the interval, entertainments were inter changed by the American and Jaj-anese officers. At One of two given by Capt. Ruchanan, the Go vernor of Uraga, as we have seen in Keying and Other high Chinese officials, at once fell in with foreign observances in toasting and speechifying. Captain Buchanan proposed the health of the Em-crcr cf Japan, which wits drunk stancUcg "with all the honors," and was acknowledged by the Governors ef Uraga, who in return similarly proposed the health of the President of the Unit ed States. The Japanese took their liquor freely, especially champagne and liquors, greatly ad miring the glassware that contained them; and expressed a hope that the time was at hand when they would be at liberty to yisit foreign countries in-Steamcr-s and ships of three masts. l,t was during this interval that an officer of the squadron approached Yedo, and if he did not actually enter it, at least was near enough to judge of iLs appearance, and to ascertain, what, however, we believe a surveying party had- done before, that close to the shore there is five f t homs water, so that it can bo approached by large ships. The city i in the form of increscent, and. starjs on an extensive plain with a magnifi deut l ack-ground of the mountains and wooded country ; but it seems to possess no striking pub lic building,?, while the dwelling-houses are ge- J no-rally of one story, and, therefore, present no thing imposing in their appearance, except their vast numbers and space they occupy. The po pulation of the capital lias, however, been great ly exaggerated, for though it is certainly great ; the Japanese officers themselves placed Yedo third among the cities in the world. Iondon, they suid, being the" first ,and Paris the second. On the Slh, the preparations were completed for the reception of the Commodore, who, by the bye, insisted upon the removal of the screen- command of Captain Buchanan, who conveyed the cortege to. the shore, an I waited the arrival of the Commodore and suite, consisting of Captain Adams, the Secretary, Mr. O. II. Perry, and the interpreters, Dr. S. W. Williams and Mr. J. L. C. Portman, who landed about noon, under a sa lute of seventeen guns from ths Macedonian, the men on the boats standing up, and the officers on shore being u2,ewcrcd. The procession then mov ed forward, the band 'laying '-Hail Columbia" and the "President's March." Oji entering the hall, the Commodore was re ceived by four Commissioners, appointed for the purjiose. They were ; llrrt Hayasiii, with the title of Daipuku no K'lmn, or Prince Councillor. Keco..d Tno, Prince of Tsus-sima, (the group of inlands lying lctwcon Corea and Jajan.) Third It.L'MA, Prince of MimasaLi, (a piin ciprlity lying wc::t of Miaco.) bi'iVA Ui-on'O, second assistant cf the Hoard of Revenue. The parly leing seated, the fing of Japan was run uj5 on board (he Powhatan, and saluted with twenty-one guns from the launches, after which another salute of seventeen guns was given to the Japanese High Commissioner, who through the interpreter presented his comjilimcnts and welcome to Use Commodore and his officers, and particularly inquired about the heaUh of the for mer. At a sign given, the servants in attendance brought in laqucrcd stands with tea and saki, sweetmeats and other conserves, and jilaced one beside each officer. The regalement seems to have been much the same as thit which in China generally precedes tho transaction of business with foreign ollicials ; and while it was going on there was time to take a note of the place of meeting. The hall, which had been run up with great celerity, was about fifty feet long, fortj wide, and twelve high, and surrounded. with mag nificent japonicaa, sonic of thorn, thirty feet in height, und in full bloom. Seats and tables about two feet high, covered with red cloth, extended the whole length of the apai tmcnt. The floor was covered with white mats about three feet long by two wide ; and the place was heatel by highly ornamented braziers jlaced eJi beautilul Japan stands. The pillars supporting the erec tion were ornamented with purple crajc, and the I walls were richly adorned with paintings of birds and flowers. The hall was situated about five hundred yards from the landing place,' and was commended by the ships, whioh lay with their broadsides to it. Several native artists were present taking skrjrhcs of the strangers. The refreshment being-over, the Commodore and his personal staff were conducted by the Ja panose Commissioners, into another room in the rear, tlic entrance to wnicn was covere-u wien pnrjilc crape. Thp conference lasted three hours, and was carried on through the Dutch language, which the Japanese iuterjretcrs and Mr. Port man, the Commodore's clerk, sjioke fluently. A - i.i-.i- j ... " .

A draft Treaty, in English, Dutch, Chinese and Japanese was put inf o the h?nds of the Jarancsc Commissioners. who said that it would receive due consideration, but the old Emperor had died since Commodore Perry was thcrelast 3'ear. and his successor was a 3-oung man, who would require to consult his Council liefore coming to a determination ; and the Commodoro was reminded that Japanese did not act with the same rapidity as xmcricansdid, which was thus illustrated : Should several Ja- any kind of food." j this time.

Then a third would re-milk, i this time the merchant trusted the boy's honest c bed of sickness, nnd kept him for two years "Thcro is not then a wave to be seen upon the wiilc-r," at length a fourth would suggest Come, let ns go and see the ships." Thct the preliminaries of a treaty would be rett'ed during tho present visit wa3. however, more than probable. Its leading provisions, it is said, will be the opening of three or more of tho ports of Japan to the commerce cf the L'nited States, and securing supplies of coals for the steamers of that country. In other resjects, the treaty, yncludcd or proposed, is understood to be nearly a coui4erpart of that with China, ex cejt, it is said, that the Japanese objected to a clause admitting all other countries tn ths same privileges as America ; not like the Chinese, y whom, and not hy Sir ll.in.y Pottinger, as is ge nerally ssipposcd, the privileges of the English Treaty were extended to all foreign countries. Tho Japanese wouhr manifest mere sagacity, and save themselves from incalculable vexation, were they to eVtermiue on allowing other natious (o enjoy the same immunities as America, and no other, modeling all future treaties on precisely the same tonus. Cut nothing can 1 as yet ci-r-tainly known on the subject, for thvStisqTichanr.a, having been placed at the disposal of Mr. Mc Lane, the Minister to China, and being under orders to be in Hong Kong in the beginning of April, was despatched on the morning of ihc2 M March," the very da' a conference was to have been held for tho iurposc oi considering the treaty. Four days after the interview, the presents were interchanged, time having been required to erect j.laces f r their reception. Those for the Ef-ij-cror, consisted of, among other things : A Railway with Steam IViginc An Electric Telecranh A Surf Boat A Life Ik tat A Print-' ing Press A fine Lorgnette A set of Audubon's American Ornithology, splendidly lxund Plates cf Amcrkan Indians Maps of dii'erent Stales of America Agricultural Implements, with all the modern improvements A piece of Cloth A bale cf Cotton A Stove RiHes, I'islols, and Swords Champaigne, Cordials, and American AYhisk-c-y.

Of the other presents, perhaps the one most valued was acojiy of Wob-'cr's complete Diction ary to one cf the Imperial interpreters. To the high officers were given books, r:fie3, iistols, swords, win os, cloths, maps, stoves, clocks, and cordials, the last of which they fully ajq-.rcciatcd. aruLas regards clocks, when it was projosed to bring an-"engineer from shipboard to set them ogoing. the Japanese said, there was no occasion for that, for they had cloek-mr.kcrs in Yedo who understood them perfectly. They were curious to know, however, about Ericsson's calorie en gine, of which they had heard, but, from the Commodore at any rate, we susiect, they would not receive a very favorable opinion of its j.racti cal utility. Whalcver n.ay be thought of some of the other presents, the Railway and the Telegraph, at which the world at "the time was disposed to laugh, were hajpy hits. The Rail is only about three hundred yards in on", but biing formed in a circle, the carriage can be driven at the ra!c cf forty miles or more. Just at first the Jajanese were chary of venturing into the car, but after a j single trial, there was much good humored com petition for places. The Tele-graph still more astonished them, but they will speedily under stand it, and may possibly by this time be hiving down the wires for themselves. Tlia Honest Beggar Eoy. FROM TUE GERMAN". A joor boy about ten years ago entered the warehouse of a rich man, Samuel Richter, in Dantzic, and asked the book -keeper for alms. You will get nothing here," grumbled the man, without raising his head from the book ; "be off." Weeping bitterly, the boy glided towards the door, at the nlomoiit that Ilerr Richter entered. " AYhat i3 the matter here ?" he asked, turn ing to the book-keeper. . A worthless beggar boy," was the man's an swer, and he scarcely looked up from his work. In the mean time Ilerr Richter glanced to wards the boy. and remarked that when close to the door he picked up .something from the ground. " Ha, my little lad, what is that you picked up ?" he cried. The weeping boy turned and showed him a needle. " And what, will you do w ith it V akcd the (I,... 1 v t lie i ! . ,t. r,.... t, . t ..!..,::. ?r , ; jamt iwmi. m u ; . me w : " 1 win sew up tue nS ones. -iuivou are noi osuume-u, saiu ne, in .(iiKimr-jiui uuu - ........ ; kind though serious tone, " you so young and ' ready acquired the sum of five hundred dollars, j hearty to beg.

My father died about three weeks j ago, and my poor mother and little brothers have eaten nothing these two days. Then I ran out ; in anguish and begged for bread. Butdas a j single peasant only gave me yesterday a piece of broad; since then I have not t.tcn a moricl of face. Ho thrust hi3 hand into his pocket, drew forth a piece of money, and said : " There is half a dollar ; go to the baker's and with half the money buy bread for yourself, I j our mother and your brothers ; but bring back J the other half tome." The boy took the monc and ran joyfully away, " Well," said the surly book Veepr.r, be will ! laugh in his sleeve and never come hnek again." : Who knows ?" rejdied Ilerr Ri hter ; and ! as he spoke he beheld the boy running quickly j with a loaf of bread in one hai:d and some mo- j ncy in tho other. "There, good 5,ir," l.c c;kd, almost breath less, " there is the rist of the mont-y." Thf-n. being very hungry, he begged at once for a knife to cut otra p:.eee of bread. The book keejier reached him in silence his j-ocket knife. The lad cut off a slice in great baste, and was about to take a bit of it. Put suddenly he be thought himself laid the bread aside, and folding his tnii:;, rhiarscd a silent j. raver ; then he fell to his meal with a hearty appetite. The merchant was moved by thw boj"3 unuf fcclcd jiicty. He inquired afitr his family and home, and learned from his simjile narrative that his father had lived in a village about four miies distant f.-otn Dautzic, where he owned a small house and farm, hut his house had been burnt to the ground, and much Mckuess in his family bad 1 had comiM'l'od him to sell his farm. 1-1 then hired himself out to a lkh iiciglihur ; but before three weeks were at an end he died b;uk en down by grief end excessive toil. Aud now his mother," whom sorrow had thrown upon a led of i ;i:c.s, was with her lour children suf fering the bit 1 1 rest poverty. Ilcthc eldest, had resolved to sfok for assistance, and had gone from village to village, then had struck into the highway ; knd at last, having begged every where in vain, had come (o Dantzic. The merchant's heart was touched, lie had but one child, and the boy apj-carcd to him as a draft at sight, which Providcncs had drawn upon him as a test ef his gratitude. ' Listen, my son,' be began ; have you really a wish to learn ? 4 Oh, yes, I have indeed,' cried the loy : 1 have read the catechism already, and I should know a good tleal more, but at home I had al ways my little brothers to carry, for my mother was sick in bed. HeiT Richter immediately formed his resolu tion. ' Well, then,' said he, ' if you'aro a good and honest nnd industrious ly, I will take care of you. Yen shall k'arn, have meat, and drink andclolhing, and in time earn something besides. Then yeiu can support your mother and brothers also.' " '1 he Ly's eyes flashed with joy. Rut in a moment ho cast them to (he ground again, and sofily said, ' my mother all the Lile has nothing to cat." At this moment, as if sent hy Pro vidence, an inhabitant of the boy's native village entered Ilcrr Richter 's house. This man confirmed the lad's story, aud willingly consented to carry the molh-r tidings of her son Gottlieb, and food, and a small sum of money jfrom the merchant. At the same time Ilerr Richter directed his lxk kecper to write a letter to the pastor of the vil- ! Inge, commending the widow to Lis care, with an additional sum enclosed to the poor family, and promising further assistance. As soon as this was done, Ilerr Richler fur nished the boy wi th decent clothes, and at noon led him to his wife, whom he accuractly inform ed of little Gottlieb's story, and of the j.lnns which he had formed for him. The gcod woman readily promised her best assistance in the latter, and she faithfully kcj.t her word. During the next four years Gottlieb attended the schoeihs of the gre-at commercial city ; then his faithful foster-father tcok him into his count ing room to educate him for business. Here, as well as there, at the' writing-desk ns well as at the school bench, the rij cning youth disjdayed himself, not only by bis natural ca j acity, but by the faithful industry with which lie exercised it. With all this, his heart retain ed its native innocc'ce. Of his weekly allow ance, he sent the half regularly to his mother, until she died, after having survived two of his brothers. She had passed the last years of her life not in wealth, it is true, but bv the aid of the i noble Richter, and of hw faithful son, in a cou ! dition above wsr.t. Af.er the death of his dearly beloved mother, there w as no dear friend Ml in Gottlieb in the world, except his benefactor. Out of love to him, he liocamc on active zealous merchant- I lie began by applying the superfluity of his i allow ancc, which he could now dispose cf at his pleasure, to a-trade in Hamburg quills. When j by care and jirudencc ha bad gained a hundred ; and twenty dollars; ithapjxncd that be found : in his native village a considerable quantity of i -.1 U .V...!, rv d. and -fill to ,:,ifUT..u .-j ; oc nau a. a .euMM.ao.e , . .,e. j made him in a coupleof years a thousand dollars j richer. i This happened during the customary five years ' of clerkship: at the end of that joriod, Gottlieb j continued to serve his Unefactor for five years more, with industoy, skill and fidelity ; then he took the pluee of the book-keeper, who died almt confined to his couch Gottlieb, redoubling his j exertions, became the soul of the wnoie uisme.xs. Ilcrr Richler closed his cyc3 in death in the six- , ty-sixlh year of his r.gc. i la the year it-, ten yca.s I Gottlieb-Rein owned three larjre sh'r ; ' " care of Providence seemed especially to watcn over the interests of their owner.

A correspondent of the New York Times, 6ays : " lk fore the interview broke up, the CommQr dore mentioned", that ho proposed to give his oflieers leave to go on shore for recreation. To this, no great rejection was made; snd we be lieve, that within r. few days afterwards, several of the officers were iaking exercise on bhore. Rev. E. C. P.itringrr, the Chaplain, made several excursions among the villages and corn-fields, which la.t, he found in high cultivation. The houses were generally thatched, but those ot the better sort wcri covered with tilw, having yars an small gardens within enclosures. 1 he F 'flowing dny, the sane gcatleinan, llna ingthejooplo neither unfriindly nor indisposed to reecie liim, and having obtained have to got em shore, determined to visit two large cities some tnih-s off, called Kanagawa and Rosacea, ami with that iew crossed an arm of the bay, which shortened the dUtaucc by several wiles. He then proceeded thro ugh Kauawaga, supposed to contain from one to two hundred thousand in habitants ; and from the immense crowds that poured out everywhere to see the 6lrangt-r, there can be no doubt of the population, beinj; very great. Tho crowds, however, caused no incon venience or impediment, fr on a wave of the haod from the Japanese c'JVials who accompanied Mr. Dittingcr, the jicoplo cleared a jassage ; and af terwards, a messenger having boon Bent forward for the juirposc, the people packed themselves at the sides of the houses, and left the centre of th streets clear for Ihe stranger. He entered Borne cf the houses, which ho found primitive in their furniture and arrangements ; but. compared w ith other Oriental dwellings of tho 6ame clasa, neat, clen, and camCrtable. In soino oi Ihean he observed clocks cf Japanese manufacture. Ho also visited several temples, which though smaller than in China, have more gilding on Ihehr walls, aud ornaments on their idols, and gener ally are in better order. The priests as veil as the pcrqde were distinguished for their courtesy. The cities thus visited were not only very exten sive, (estimated to be six miles long,) but vrith wide well-forme fell r ts. Kasacca is from fif teen to twenty miies distant, hy land, from the ships; and Mr. Clttinger being thus ntcessarily long absent, sonic anxiety was felt about him. Ashe was returning, a Japanese officer put into his hands an order from the Commodore for all officers to return ou board, and shortly after wards a courier ,u;untrd on a splendid black horse, delivered a similar dispatch, and finding it was uruleTslood ond acted on urned round, end galloped back again to rejort tho ajproach of tho American officer, who concluded his jonr nay by torch-light, and found on lys arrivalhit everything that had occurred had leen noted, even the number of butlers on Lis coat Los born recorded. How thoy Account for it- Tho Freeman's Journal, (ho Catholic paper in New York, referring to the recent disturbances in that city, attributed, whether truly or not every reader is as able to jndgo as we are, to the Know Nothings," makes the following singular statement. The Journal says: It is not a sentiment of Native Americanism that is at the bottom of these disturbances. Their promoters arc'liJstly Englishmen and Irisl prolcstanls. This is an ascertained fact Wc have, moreover, goo 1 grounds for cur assertion, that these fireijn r,crvant3 of England ere in th pt:y t f f'-c ;."& Ccreonment.

The growing Bcntiinetnt of hos tility to England at the present time, in this country, is a causo of far greater uneasiness to the British government. The long lugubrious loaders of the Lo.kIoh 7"ir.. is asutlk-int proof of this.
