Ambassadors are rather tall and thin in form, with long and
sharp faces, and, as with all the Japanese, of dark com-
plexion and jet black hair, so far as any Is left by the
barber, for they bare a singular fashion in dressing the
hair, in which the men expend as much care as the women,
and take as much pride and pleasure in its neat and fashion-
able adjustment. All is shaved off to the very skin, except
around the temples and low down on the back of the neck,
from which it is brought up on all sides to the top of the
head and fastened by a string, and then bent forward, well
stiffened with p•ma*m, in a queue about four inches long
and of the Asset ass's Sum and pointed forward over the
front part of the head, which is left completely denuded of
all hair. They dress is sick robes, and wear two swords
at timer sides, *mover( to universal usage with the higher
elesem.—Nete York Herald.
