is to be opened to our commerce immediate
ly, is a small town, but with fine harbor, on
one of the Southern Islands. 1t is about the
latitude Of San Francisco. 1lockadale, the
ether place named, and which becomes ac-
ccssiblc at the expiration Of II year. is in the
Island of Ycddo, the central one of the Japan
Islands proper. 1t is the second town in size
on the Island, the largest being Matsmac, the
residence of the Spiritual Emperor. Its har-
Dor is better, however, than that of Matsmac,
and is capable of accommodating a large
1cct. 1t opens on the Strait about eighteen
miles wide, which separates ieddo from
Nippon, the is!ang lying next south The
town stands OF the dcclivity OF high, near
" circular promontory, lying Between the
Bay of Sanger on the one side and the larger
Bay Of Hockadale on the other, connected
with the main line only by a narrow neck. 1t
lies about the latitude of the south line OF

THE ARMY.-Thc New York Express states
that not one-fourth Of the present rank and
file Of the United States Army arc Americans
while about thrcc-fourths Of those in the SER
vice are Germans and Irish. Among the re-
cent cnlistments in that city arc two soldiers
that served seven years in the French army
at Rome, in the Russian army, and in various
Of the governments of Europe. The Ameri-
can service is generally preferred to any other
by those who have carried muskets both in
Europe and here. 1t is among the anomalies
of races and governments that two-thirls of
those born and bred abroad should be en-
ploycd to do the fighting of the United States.
