.lfhiehj will be found of general interest,
upeclally as the ambassadors-will soon visit
New York and New England, and therefore
will be; objects of special interest to our
people. i. _ _
. The embassy is under charge .of U. S. Min-
later 'DeLong,_and it is: their intention to
spend a: year in visiting all the countries
withwhich' theyhave diplomatic relations
to study.- their manners “and. customs, and'
make additional treaties; The formation ot
the Mifiién is due" to a‘suggestion made to
the Japanese government as far back as May
» last by Mr. DeLOng ; secondly, in the teeth
ofconside'rable' opposition from his brother
Ministerghe had succeeded in inducing the
Japau'oseito visit Amerjca first, and it is of
the utmost importance to American interests
in thefuture that the Embassy be favorably
and pleasurably impressed by what they see
' and the .treatment- they receive in the firs:
courit'rythey visit. From Sun Francisco a
small detachment were sent to the Sandwich.

The officials and retainers embrace over
one hundred persons including five young
lsdiesePfincessea-, The young ladies are
to remain and be educated here. ‘ It is the
desire of the Mikado that the ladies not only
receive a complete education in all the use-
ful and'ornamental branches at Yasssr Col-
lege, but that they adopt-the style of dress
of this country in every particular. None
of them speaks a word of} English. Their
names and ages are as follows ; Miss Ouye-
day, aged 16 ; Miss Yashiwashi, aged 15 ;
Miss ' Yawagawa, :1ng ~12 ; Miss Wagai,
aged 10, and'Miss-Fezda, aged 8. They are
consigned to ’the care of Mr. Mori, and will
perhapabesenl next summer to Mount Hol-
yoke, Mass. For the first few months they
will be entertained at private houses in
Georgetown, and -will be under the ‘super—
vision of the wife of Mr. Charles Lanman, oi
the Japanese legation. _ i
Iwakura, the chief ambassador, is about
fifty years old. He is a man of strong native
mind, who does not speak English. He was
an inveterate opponent of the Tycoon. in the
late war, and was for several-years held as
a prisoner by the Tycoon’s government.
Satsumc havingretired fl'om ofilce,‘ Ilvakura
as the vice president of the Mikado’s minis-
try, is one of the highest personage in the
empire. His visit confers the same degree
of. honor from Japan as the visit in person
of the Premier of Great Britain would con-
fetti-om that power. . . _
Although the Japanese and their retinue
come principally from Yeddogor its» imme-
diate vicinity, there is a singular variety in
their .physiognomy.._ PhySically .cousidered,
they; are small, rarely exceeding five feet
eight inches in height, but. symmetrically
formed. In their faces is. to be seen a singu-
lar variety of characteristics. Some have
nearly the Caucasian type of features, the
high, square forehead, the nose straight, or
slightly acquilinc. and the mouth'and chin
delicately curved and rounded. Others have
the. .highcheek bones and the narrowing
chinaud forehead of the. aboriginal Ameri-
can; Sume have strictly Mongolian faces,"
some s‘Malay cast. All have; black eyes,
blaclsgstraight hai; and the usual Oriental
complexion. Nearly all have a bright, in-

and}powe‘r were more manifest than their
interest in the conversion of the natives to
the system of religiOn which they, the mit-
sionaries,‘professed but in reality-disgraced.
By 1585 the Jesuit missionaries had inter-
fered in a marked degree with the religious
professions, of the inhabitants, and their po-
litical and commercial schemes had come to
the knowledge of the authorities. These
circumstances led to the persecution and ex-
pulsion ot the Portuguese traders and their
crafty aiders and abettors, the misaionaries.
After the expulsion of the Portuguese, the
Dutch ,were the first foreigners permitted to
'visit the empire of Japan. With great difii
culty they prevailed on the Japanese au_thor_
ities to' allow them to trade, bri'ConditiOn iot
.not...interfering with the natibnal religion.
The Dutch trade with J apan. commenced
about 1600, under severe restrictions, and
has since been frequently suspended.
In 1637 an edict was published .making it
a capital: ofi‘ence for the natives to travel
‘intoforeignicountries. .
t The mistaken zeal of the missionaries has
until somewhat recently tended in a great
measure to bathe the efiprts of , European
inquirers into its internal ”arrangements and.
economy. Owing to the same cause, the
Japanese Government has felt itself obliged
vigorously to oppose foreign commerce.
Communication between China and Japan
is said to have existed long before the Chris-‘
tinn'era, but a bitter national hatred, we are
informed,':has everexisted between the two
peoples. - ; ,.
Underfthe old regime the form of govern-
ment required two monar‘ehs, ‘one of whom
was -the Mikado, who. had jurisdiction of
spiritaul affairs, and‘whose residence was at
Mjacco ; and the other the Tycoon, who was
the temporal monarch, and whom residence
was at Yeddo. The personal name of the
Mikado was concealed'from all except the
imperial princes. Under the Tycoon there
was a great council of thirteen, who admin-
istered the affairs of government. The
people were divided into eight castes, begin-
ning with the daimois or great princes and
ending with the working or peasant class-
' For purposes of government the 'country
was divided into 8 districts, which were di-
vided 'into 58 provinces, and these again into
604 counties or small principalities. The
provinces were governed by daimios or
“high named," and. under them were gov-l
ernors of districts, called siomios or “well
named." The daimios were appointed by
'the‘Siogoon, to whom . y were accounta-
ble, with hostages, fo ‘1 e proper exercise
of their duties. ’ '
The supreme power of Japan was origi-
'nally vested ‘in an ecclesiastical emperor.
called the Mikado or Dairisama, (lord of the
dairi or court of the Mikado.) But-in 1853
Yoritomo, the emperor’s sjogun, or military
commander,‘usurped the_.chief civil power,
and from that time to the recent revolution
or restoration the Mikado, who is the only
real emperOr, has been in a state of depen-
dence on his sjogun, his first ofileer, the mil-
itary chief of the empire. _, '
The cqnfiict between, the Mikado and the-
Tycoon, in 1867 and 1868, resulted in‘the re-
sumption of the administration of the empire
by the Mikado and in the total abolition of
the Tycoonate. ' fl . 1 *
From 1583- until the restoration 0f the Mi-
kado, in July, 1868, the Tycoon or Siogoon
Since his reduction to e.._state'of political im-
potence, the Mikado 0t Dairi-sama was chief
of all the religions of the empire, and especi-
ally of the old .Sintoo. He is called the Ten-
no,now that the administration and supreme
executive power of the country have been
restored to him.
The American expedition to Japan, under
Commodore Perry, reached Yeddo, and was
favorably received, July 8, 1853. It remain-
ed only a few days. A treaty of commercial
‘alliance was concluded between the two
countries March 31, 1854. A similar treaty
was concluded with the British in October
of the sameyear. Nagasaki and Hakodadi
were opened ,toEuropean commerce in 1856.
A commercial 'trcaty I with‘ Russia'was con-
cluded August 19, 1858. Lord Elgin visited
Japan with a present of a steamer for the
Emperor, and was honorably received in
July, and obtained the treaty of Yeddo,
opening Japan to British commerce, on the
26m of August, 1858. The Tycoon, or seen-
lar emperor, died September 16, 1858, aged

several persons were wounded. By the fol-
:lowing December quiet had been restored in
the country, but toward the close of June,
1862, an attack on the English charge (1’
afiaires, which was then in contemplation
was frustrated. The foreign ministerstrans—
ferre'd their residence from Yeddo to Yoko-
hama. In September,1862, Mr. Richardson
was murdered, and his companions cruelly
assailed by a Japanese noble and his suite.

and the rivalry of the Mikado and'the Ty,-~

_ were committed, for which the culprits were
executed March 16th, 1868 ; further outrages
were punished March 23. In the hostilities
extending from January 26 to 30, 1868, the
troops of the Mikado defeated those of the
Tycoon, who sought safety in flight; but in

were defeated. Ailer long war and varying
success the rebellion ended, and the Mikado
was re-establislieo .in July, 1868. His ma-
jority was proclaimed in‘November of that
year, and his marriage occurred February 9,
1869. Another rebellion of the Tycoon‘s
partiz’rms took place in the same month.
The Duke of Edinburgh visited J span in the
latter part of August. He was received by

Japan has at present a standing army of
some 12,000 .men, organized mainly in ac-
cordance with the French military system.
All the sumurais liable to perform mtlitary‘
service are required in time of war to place
themselves at the disposal of the Govern-
.nent. The statistics of commerce and of
shipping atthe principal ports open to for-
eign nations are of special interest in a com-
' mercial point of view. In 1869 the value in
dollars oi the imports at the orts of Yoko-
hama, Hiogo,-Nagasaki, Ha odai and Nie-
vrata was $28,812,631, and of .the exports
$18,250,189. The number of ships entered
was 1,571, with a tonnage of 1,048,436; the
number clearedwas 1,475, with a tonnage of
l,019,079. In 1868, Japan exported 15,000,-
000 pounds of tea to the United States; and
near] 2,000,000 pounds of’ silk'tp England

line has since been thrown open tomercan-

tiOus with several powerful daimios for the

The Japanese psople are in'many respects
making remarkable progress. In March,.
1870, a treaty of peace and commerce was
exchanged between Japan and Spain. Dip-
all the principal civilized nations. .
Some idea of the growth and importance
of our trade relations with Jo. an, appear
from the following figures :_ D1860, the
trade carried on in American vesse, ,,
amounted .to but.$193.865 ; in 1866 the com-
merce in-American vessels had increased to
$884,122, while the total commerce of the
islands in foreign vessels was $2,848,136 ; in
1869 the commerce in American vessels
amounted 1035.125 .645. and , .the. total com-
merce to $7,201 8. ‘In this year the total
tonnage of the nitedStates entered at the!
five open ports of Japan was 509,008, which
was nearly one-half of all the foreign ton-’
nage at these ports. This commerce has
increased quite as, rapidly since 1869, as at
any time ‘before, and the prospect is that by
virtue of our. favorable situation, we shall, if
wise and prudent, control most of this valu-
able trade to the satisfaction of the Japanese
as well as ourselves. _
Progressive in everything, in nothtng have
the Japanese made more progress than_in
ship building. In 1865. in accordance With
an agreement entered into between the
French and Japanese governments, a corps
of French marine and civil engineers com--
mrnced operations. The terms were that
the forman, chief workmen, materials,.&c_.,
should come fi‘om France,.while the mason.
ty of the labor should be performed b ap-
anese—all expenses to be defiayed y the
latter government. In five years the dry
dock was opened, and the yard is now in
full operation. The harbor of Yokoskahajs
been greatly improved—the water deepened
to ‘28 feet and a stone breakwater 600
feet in ' length, is being constructed at
the entrance. Stone wharves,n'early.a mile
in extent, have been built or are in course of
construction, and two wet basins give ac-
commodation to some nine or ten vessels.
The arsenal works occupy 41 acres, to make
which three hills tl’omfloo to 300 feet high.
'hadio be cut away, and a large creek and a
portion of the harbor filled in, and now the
din of the boiler and machine shops, and the
clung of the steam hammer announce the
close of their dependence on foreign ship-
builders. If they continue in their present
coursethe Japanese will lead civilization in
Asia and may yet become formidable rivals
of the English for the commerce of that vast
continent and its a 'acent islands. -
Agriculture is fo lowed in obedience to
private interest as well as to a general and
very peremptory law,which obliges all own-'
ers of land, under the' penalty of confisca-
tion, to keep their property in good produc-
tive condition. By “list-means- the soil has.
been much improved by tillage and fertili-
zing. The peo 1e are very industrious.
The character 0 their artificers in copper,
iron and steel has been a matter of Consid-
erable comment. The swords made in
Japan. rank second only to those made in
Khorassau.

characteristics, the Japanese 11 r to be a

They are, however. the highest type of the

they are far superior to the Chinese. They

The men are of middle stature, robust,

their skin is a warm white, rudd in youth,

virtues. The common mode of salutation
in Japan is an extremely low bow.
Society in Japan is divided _ into two
’=class‘es, the ranking caste being known as
.the Kazoku and the lower as the Shizoku.
All the members of this embassy belong to
the Kazoku class. Even. in thisclassthere
is observable only a little- liberty. Fer in-
stance, when the great Iwakura and his
high ambaSsadorial friends are together,
they preserve an immense amount of digni-
ty toward. the lower officers and students.
The students profoundly bow themselves
into and from the presence of Iwakura, and
all seem to hold him in the‘ rofollndest
reverence. Gov. Ito is quite inc ined to like
our free and easy American style, but even
he would never consent that it should be
adoptedeither .by, 01' toward the Shizoku.

In Japan women have ever been held in
