THE TREATY WITH JAPAN.

People are talking much nonsense in regard to the
treaty with Japan, and its commercial results. Not
that we blame the friends of Ex-President Fillmore
and Commodore Perry for exaggcrating the states
marship Of the one and tue diplomacy OF the other
We simply mean to express the opinion, tina, the poo.
pie are credulously repeating a story, which is nothing
else shan a piece Of oriental extravaganza.
From time immemorial travellers to the East have
had q license Of fiction and establishment, which ex'
eInPts the narrative Of their exploits from any severe
SCRUTINY. The chroniclcrs Of Commodore Perry ex-
peditiou, we suspect, have awaited themselves OF this
privilege 20 asgrandizc the achievements Of tbeirhero'
Their narratives arc certainly in tho vein rather of
the Arabian tales than of sober and severe history.
4 treaty with Japan, in 40 far as it puts I'LL end to the
exclusive and inhospitable policy of that bnrbarous
country, and opens possible channels Of trade to the
enterprise of our merchants, is an object of consider
able importance. But, does any intelligent person be-
lieve tha. the United States are TO realize the least Of
the gorgeous visions Of commercial advantage and of
wealth, wherewith we are fascinated by the poets Of
the Perry squadron! Look at the thing a lit,le-Ja-
pan is at best but Il semi.civilized country. Its peo.

%ufacture, which arc not unknown or uncommon
in this country. Its resources, if Of any Importance,
are undcvrloped. The people have neither taste nor
talent for trade, and the genius Of the government is
jrreconc;lably exclusive and intolerant. If there was
any surplus of production in the country, what has
become of it, The single fact that the empire Of ia
