TIE Japan Expedition.

The North China Mail of Aug. II
has the following in reference to the iu-
terview between Com. Perry and the
japanese:
The japanese selected the small town
of Gorihama, about three miles south OF
Uraga, for the interview. On the morn
ing of the l4th, the Susquehanna aud
the Mississippi took up position off the
town, and lay with their broadsides to
the shore. The governor and deputy
governor of Uraga, with the comm md,
ant Of the military forces, came off to
accompany the Commodore to the land
lug place. The officers and men detail
ed to accompany Com. Perry amounted
to about 400, while the force of the ia
panese was variously estimated at from
five to seven thousand
The Commodore was escorted with
the American colors flying and the
bands playing the national air "lIail
Columbia" to the house of reception.
Here he was received by the Prince of
ldzu, first councillor Of the Emperor,
who was accompanied by the Prince of
lwami. The letter Of the President,
and Com. Perry's letter of crcdence,
were formally delivered, and an Official
receipt given in return by the two prin
ces' The Commodore stated that, in
order to give the japanese Government
ample time for deliberation, he would
depart in three or four days, and return
III a few months to receive the reply.
On the following day Com. Perry, in
the Mississippi, went about ten miles be-
yond this, making total distance of
twenty miles beyond the limit of pre-
ylous exploration. From the deck of
the frlgate crowd of shipping was seen
or miles to the northward; and, from
the number ofjunks continually going
and coming, it was evident that this
was the anchorage in front of the capi-
tai.
The officers of the Susquehanna and
Mississippi speak with admiration of tn
beauty of the shores, and the rich culti-
vation and luxuriant vegetation which
they everywhere witnessed.
The natives with whom they came in
contact were friendly in their demeanor,
and the governor of Uraga is spoken of
as a model of refnementand good breed
ing.
The day before the departure of the
squadron the governor went on board
the ousquehanna, taking with him
number OF presents, consisting of arti-
Giles OF lacquered ware and other Japan
csc manufactures.
