The Japan Expedition.

II Bayard Taylor, one of the editors Of the
New York Tribune, dates a very interesting
letter from the China sea, Aug. A, 1853.
On the 9Th, two Of the immense steamers
of the squadron--the first that ever entered
japanese waters-dashed up the Bay of
Yedo, at the rate of nine knots an hour
against the wind, no doubt to the great
establishment OF the natives us to the invsi-
BILE power which bore them along.
The Susquehanna (dag ship) and Missis-
sippi were brought to anchor in the Bay,
and alter four days negotiations the result
was, that the Emperor had especially APP
pointed one Of the Chief Counsellors Of the
Empire to proceed to Uraga and receiv-
froms Commodoro Perry the letter of the
President Of the United States, which the
Commodore was allowed to land and deliver
on shore
Of the Japanese military defcases, Mr..
Taylor declares that they appeared laugha-
BILE, alter all tho extravaganza stories that
had been circulated about their strength
s There was a sort Of devil. my care, YAM
kee-like, independent fearlessness about the
Americans which seems to have secured the
fearful respect of the japanese. This en-.
abled the former, without subjecting them
selves to single observance of Japanese
law, to obtain what the Russian embassy
under ResanoT failed to accomplish in six
months, after degrading subservience to
ridiculous demands. On one occasion the
crew of Japanese boat undertook to climb
on board the Mississippi, after being warn.
ed away, along with the remainder of huns
dreds o. other boats. A bristling array of
pixies and cutlasses over the vessels side,
caused the Japanese to retreat in great
haste On another occasion Japanese
boat commenced bearing down on an Amer
lean boat, apparently with hostile inten-
ton. The former, upon seeing the latter
stop rowing to put caps on their cnrbines,
stopped their boats at once, and desisted
from further interference.
AT a conference on shore. with two prin-
ices, the Commodore delivered the letter of
the President and his own letter of credence.
Ho then proceeded with his squadron to
survey the Bay of Yedo, advancing up it
twenty miles further than any vessels be-
fore them. This survey showed it to be
one Of the largest and finest bays in the
world, and second to none in the varied and
delightful scenery of its shores.
At a farewell visit to the Mississippi, one
Of the Japanese stated half confdentially,
that the letter of the President had been
received in Yedo, and that the government
was disposed to regard it very favorably.
On the 18th, the squadron hove anchor,
having in ten days accomplished more than
any other nation has been able to effect for
the last two centuries and having the fat
tering prospect of securing all the most inn
portant ends of the mission.

England and Cuba,

Sometime since, the Washington Union
pretended to have made the discovery that
treaty had been signed between Great
Britain and Spain, by which the institution
OF slavery was to be killed off in Cuba in
the next fifty years. To assist in this
scheme, England engaged to import native
Africans into Cuba, who were to be held in
slavery ten years. Over this astounding
discovery the Union Immediately went into
paroxysms of patriotic Indignation. Some
of the old fellows connected with the Nexf
York press thought they sssmelt rat =,
they declared their belief that the scheme
originated at Washington; that it was an
unfounded fabrication, got up for the pur-
pose Of rallying the Wings as well as the
fragmentary factions of the Democratic
party around the President. 1t was thought
that the President had discovered his mis-
take too late, in DESERVING his friends, the
national democrats, and embarking in de-
grading political traffic, by trying to buy up
his enemies, the Freesoilers. For, be it re-
membered, this Cuba discovery was made
directly after the removal of Bronson crea-
ted such a prodigious stir in the democratic
camp in New YORK. 1t turns out that these
shrewd old fellows Of the New York press
were right, for now the Union almost con-
fesses the whole affair to have been hoax.
That is, Great Britain's connection with the
matter in any shape is confessed by that
paper to be by no means clearly developed.
The attempt to unite the country by low
ing bond of enthusiastic admiration for the
administrations firm stand against aggres-
sive, meddling Great Britain, was fillibus-
tering bubble which is thus burst by the
Union, itself:
The Union remaks: CIT cannot be matter
of serious doubt with any intelligent mind,
that there is a scheme on hand to Africanze
Cuba, by resorting to the apprentice system.
The only question which can be made is, as
to the agency Of Great Britain in CARRYING
it out. OF course, it will not be supposed
by any that that government will take open
part in the scheme. To do so, would be to
concede by her own example, the RICH. of
Intervention on our part, which she avows
her determination to resist at every cost.
Ii will surprise no one to hear even that
Great Britain has dsclaimed any connection
with the scheme. But it does not follow
that because her finger is not distinctly seen
in the transaction, that therefore she is not
actually pulling the wires."-[ Telegraphed
to the N. Y. Times.
