THE JAPAN EXPEDITION

The New York Tribune states that no
letters have been received intended for
publication from Mr. Bayard Taylor,
since he joined the japan feet, but a
private note from him dated June 26,
at the barber of Napa Kiang, Loo Choo,
states very briefly few facts of interest
which it is not improper for US to CON-
municate to our readers. He writes as
follows:

rarely visited corner of the Pacific,
sweating under torrid sun, clothed in
