JAPAN.-A German traveller, nj. Gerstaeker,
who has published volume of interesting trav-
els, and whose power Of observation and trust
wOrthiness, particularly as regards countries
little visited render him desirable narrator, thus
pronounces on the results of Commodore Per-
RVS expedition to Japan:
"By love and kindness neither America nor
any other nation can expect to get anything out
of the Japanese. have not the least doubt
that the Emperor will refuse to receive the am-
bassadors or if he does grant them an inter-
view, he will dismiss them again without even
promises, and yet the Emperor of Japan is not
so ignorant Of affairs as people commonly sus-
pect. He has all kinds--and the best of them
of geographical and historical works, transat-
ed into his language; and interpreters for near
ly every country; and he is wide awake by this
time as to what others are about, and what he is
to expect. 1t is not likely that he should be g-
norant of The power of his antagonist, still do
not think that he will be persuaded to anything,
and then the question arises if other nations take
what they cannot get with free will, will it not
be necessary to frame new order of laws sta
ting the certain sum or amount of property
where stealing ends and justifable possession
commences!
1t will not be such an easy war with the
Japanese, though. The richest bees defend their
hives the most fercely, and the japanese are far
better soldiers than the Chinese their coasts
being guarded by cliffs and rocks, while the un-
steady weather and sudden gales of those lati-
tudes are also in their favor against an approach
ing or cruising enemy The smaller islands may
be taken, have no doubt-at least cut off from
connection with the larger ones but hostile ma
tions will find the Japanese far better prepared
for an attack than they now suspect Another
difficulty with the Japanese will be the impossi-
biity of half measures. If the Americans do
not force an entrance at some point-and it is
as likely as not may DO so-and do not take the
whole island, they will be walled in, in a very
short time, and permitted to see little enough of
their neighbors. Still the islands are too small
toresist for any length of time, renewed attacks
and his Majesty will have to yield first his coun-
try, and then his crown, about as willingly as
the California Indians or Sikhs, or Australian
blacks, or in fact, all other nations that have
seen their countries overrun by strangers and
enemies"
