On Wednesday next the Japanese Ambassadors
and their suite will have an opportunity of behold-
ing a sight worth seeing—England's great annual
Holiday ! What Lord PALMERSTON a few years
since aptly designated—" the Isthmian games of
Englishmen !" Tbat contest of contests—the win-
ning of the prize, in which Mr. DISRAELI happily
symbolised long before then, as " the Blue Ribbon
of the Turf!" A spectacle, to witness whieh, not
only the major part of the population of London
streams forth by read and by rail to air itself upon
Epsom Downs, but together with that huge propor-
tion of the inhabitants of the metropolis, a wonderful
collection of sight-seers drawn thither from all quar-
ters of the United Kingdom. It is the Londoner's
Holiday, of course, par excellence. But it is the
Holiday likewise, and hardly less, of "All the
'World and his Wife," to say nothing of their very
numerous family in attendance—" Country cousins,"
as Punch sings," flocking in dozens" from nearly
every nook and corner of the provinces. Already
their excellencies from Japan have witnessed many
curious scenes during their sojourn amongst us—
ever sinco their white flag with the blood-red
moan in the centre of it, has been fluttering over
the parapet at Claridge's Hotel in Brook-
street, Mayfair. They have beheld " more things"
in one way or another here in England, than have
ever yet been n dreamt of in their philosophy r' But
of all the spectacles yet displayed to their view
since their arrival in this country, the one about to
be scanned by them On their way to and from, but
above all during their stay atEpsom Downs on Wed-
nesday text (no farther off than the day after to-
morrow), will, for a dead certainty be recognised by
them, one and all, as incomparably " the" most
characteristic at once of the land and the people in
which and among which they are now sojourners.
It has been judiciously arranged that the
Japanese Ambassadors shall be conveyed to the
Derby—the legitimate way ! That is by the high-
way, and not by the railroad— their excellencies
travelling, tot
cooped up, however snugly,
in a train, but according to the good old-
fashioned mode of journeying in voguebefore the in-
vention of the steam engine, in open carriages and
four, with postilions. So that the whole panoramic
display will thus be witnessed, in its entirety,
horn the doorway of CLAutnGfs to the central
place set apart for their Excellencies on the
Grand Stand, where they can witness at their ease
the latest exemplar of the grandest horse race
in the world. In this way, of Course, as a
wholly unprecedent portion of the motley
throng, the Japanese will themselves on Wednesday
next "astonish the natives," if only by the
eccentricity of their appearance. But we
may rest tolerably well assured at the
same time, that the natives will, in their turn, in
tile way, cfford their excellencies far more than
an equivalent. Naturally they will be providing
one another with that perpetual craving of all
civilised nations, whether of the East or of the
-West, of Eurppe or of Asia—a new "sensation !"
Only the sensation afforded to that strange little
groupe of Japanese visitors must be multiplied by
all the whimsical avocations of the holiday-makers
swarming around them " out " (like themselves) for
The Derby! And far more than that multiplied also
by the variety of the constituent elements of the
vast concourse there collected together. Speci-
*ens of the os iroXXot, and of the “ci 611 e de
Ir..° "erne "—the pick, of the male portion at
least, of the Upper Ten Thcusand, and
anything but the pick of that larger and more
miscellaneous circle around it yclepped generically
TE o Blacklegs and patricians—swells and
taaanpers—knaves and fools—the pigeon and the
rook : here the taw, sharper, there the country
bumpkin—lords and roughs—all huddled together
there, upon the comae: as wild ..
and not all the
livelong day as the Carnival at Rome in'ite last
mad frolic: as confused and varied as ever the mob
and the booths of Vanity Fair appeared to the won-
dering eyes and ears of CHRISTIAN. ylk the road

thither—all sorts of vehicles, from the degitier drag

of the four-in-hand club, to the costermoner's tray
