Beauty Is rare in Smoda and there seems to
be very few Of the higher classes residing there.
Some pretty girls were seen, but the married wo-
men in Japan dis6gure themselves by blacking
their teeth with the betel nut, and shaving their
eyebrows. This is done that no one may be tempt
ed by their beauty after marriage. An unneces-
sary precaution for, like all women who mature
early, they fail rapidly. The gross immortality and
disgusting immodesty among the lower orders Of
the people, exceeds everything Of the kind to be
met with In any other part Of the world The Ia
boring classes are half or entirely naked all the
time" weather permitting Of course. Women
may be seen bathing In the streets, in front Of
their own doors, In an entire state of nudity; and
there are two lighthouses at Smoda where the
sexes battle ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS en-
tirely All decency, and throwing the fashionable
frequenters Of Rockaway and Newport quite into
tho shade. The dress Of the women Of Japan is,
by no mems, to be commended either for its ele-
gance, gracefnlness, or propriety. In consists,
separately, OF body and skirt, both OF which are
open The former falls loosely from the shoulders,
at times partially exposing the bust in front on
the side. Tho latter IL very narrow, and drawn
tightly around the whist and hips, leaving open
ing at the side, only about half doubling This
confinement Of the hips, added to the sandals that
are worn, renders the gait In walking extremely
awkward The hair however, II arranged In the
most artistic style, which, II Il could be once seen
by n Partisan eoifeur, would doubtlessly super
scde the Chinois Hnperatrice, or any other most
in vogue. In their houses, gardens, streets and
persons, the japanese are clcanly.
Concubinage is common in Japan. Besides a
wife--who Is always the mistress Of the family

one to FIVE or sir concubines depending upon his
means or inclinaton--who are bought from their
parents while young These creatures do not, Of

brors, and are often quite comedy. They are made
to perform the duties Of msid-servants and are
frequently, through jealousy, very cruelty treated
At Smoda, this class appeared to admire the for
eigners very much, and were, in consequence often
ordered out Of their sight.

This is certainly the most mysterious individual
of whom history makes mention. Like the wind
We hear the sound Of his approach, but no man
can tell whence he cometh, nor whittier he goeth
In imitation, 1t would seem of Jack the Giant
killer" he appears to be perambuating the whole
country, enveloped in his " coat of darkness and
rejoicing in his "shoon of swiftness." To use the
pompous phrase OF old Sam johnson, he is zen
dued with the immunites Of invisibility' to a de-
gree which is quite astounding His progress is
80 rapid, that it leaves the wondering telegraph
far behind. He seems indeed to be omnipresent--
to pervade all space--to embrace both ends of the
continent, and all the intermediate space, at ono
and the same time. Who and what he is it seems
impossible to know. 1t is as easy to find out the
author Of Junius, or to discover the mouth of the
Niger, or to ascertain, with historical accuracy,
who hit Billy Patterson" or to explain the
whereabouts of Milly Mcpherson. The shadows
of thirty centuries have been purged from the land
Of Egypt, and the treasures Of her heroglyphics
stand revealed. The history of Nineveh and Baby
lon is becoming as familiar as the annals of the
United States. But where Ia the man that can
tell us anything about "Samy" Sometimes we
are almost tempted to conclude, as Byron did with
regard to the author of Junus, that he is no
body at ALL" But his acts are so palpable IL at
there can be no doubt upon the subject At one
moment we hear Of him in Pennsylvania; the next
he has beaten the telegraph, and is turning the
whole world upside down in Massachusetts. Scarce
ly has the of the guns announcing his triumph
died away, when he is in Kansas The very hot-bed
Of abolitonism, teaching those hard-headed colon
lists Of Greeley and the Union haters, that "some
things can be done as well as Others His latest
demonstration has been made in the Congress Of

We conclude in our daily Of this afternoon,
the very able speech Of Mr.. Davis on "Ameri-
canism." II win be published entire in our
weekly Of Monday, and be ready for delivery
at the counter, or for the mail, early on Monday.
Whilst we do not mean to say that we endorse
each and all Of the views which this gentleman
has presented, we do nevertheless say, that we
concur generally in his reasoning. The speech
exhibits much talent and research.
