OPENING UF IkADE WITH JAPAN.-A business
transaction took place yesterday that is likely 10
be productive Of important results in the history
Of the commercial world. purchase Of I0O-
600 pounds OF rice was msde by Of our most
respectable Chinese merchants, which it is pro-
posed to ship to Japan Oh board The ship Hamil-
ton, which now under Chinese colors-having
been purchased fiom her American owners by
Two wealthy Chinese merchants. The Chinese
have long been trading terms with the Japan
ese, and their vessels allowed to enter their
Forts and trade. The undertaking is no, ell
one, aud in the event OF its succeeding, it would
not require the foresight OF prophet to predict
very sudden increase i'll the mercantile marine
of China; which would soon be able to show as
Maidstone a fleet OF clippers any nation in the
world. 1t would not be strange We're it 10 hap-
pen that the opening of the ports of Japan should
he brought about by the Chinese who have set
tied i'll California. Indeed, we are strongly in
clined TO the belief that such will be the case
and that the world will yet have to acknowledge
themselves indebted to California for it all. l lie
powerful changes going on throughout the world
the result ut the gold discoveries-are every
day becoming more and more apparent, and il
would not be presumplive TO suppose that the
ports Of Japan would be MS free TO the world be-
fore three years, as are those OF China now.-S
