All things they do in such simplicity, it is not
little amusing, can assure you. They are all
very curlous about our ladies', to know why they
are So white and delicate in appearance; tor the
japanese women are the rOugher in appearance
of The sexes they are in fact the slaves. We, OF
course, told them how our ladies were esteemed,
and how respected, and il appears to excite per-
feet mystery with them. We have some pictures
Of ladies' in frames, and some in periodicals shew-
ING fashions, sc. They often ask us II we really
have ladies' that resemble them. When told we
have, they raise both hands and exclaim, "Ah-
hee!n When we first landed here,we had many
strong objections and reinonstrances from the
japanese officers, telling US that We were not al
lowed to live on shore under any circumstances;
and that FIVE did come on shore, the Governor OF
Simoda could no longer be Governor, but would
have put an end to his existence by ripping him.

ters were sent 10 make US tables, benches, and
such alterations as we required.

The HOOP PErrIcoAT.-Prentce, ,ofthe Louis

what he says oft:
"A correspondent asks us 10 stake off, the
hoop petticoat. We cannot take it of. but we
heartily wish that some of our female acquain-
tances would. Certainly fashion never dictated
a more ungraceful or senseless mode. 1t is
gross libel upon the taste and Judgement Of the
sex. Rebellion against such fashion is simply
fidelity 10 womanhood. Ofcourse We shall offer
no apology for speaking of thing that SO Obtrudes
itself upon everybody's notice, and runs into every
body's convenience. lfit were mere private
hideousness the case might be different, but it Is
seriously public nuisance. If there are not In
dependence aud delicacy enough in fashionable
society 10 abate it, it must be abated by the strong
arm Of rdicuIe. We are greatly tempted TO re-
publish No. l27 Of the Spectator, but forbear for
the present. 1t might be a desperate remedy but

A New KIND OF APE.-Professor Owen, the
celebrated paturaist, describes species Of ape,
recently discovered oD The western coast Of Africa,
named the Gorilla species, the adults of which
attain the height of five feet five inches, and are
three feet broad across the chest His head is
double the size Of mans, and its extremities are
enormously developed. They exist in some num-
bers in The intermnable forests Of the Gambia
river. The negroes of The country, in their ex
cursions into the forests in search of ivory, exhibit
ted llle fear Of the lion, as it SUNK away frvni
man; but they dreaded the Gorilla, for when he
saw man advancing he came down out Of tho
trees to the attack, and could strangle man with
the greatest ease. Ihe strength of this man ape
is enormous, his jaw is as powerful as that of u
lion, and his canine teeth equally formidable.
"Why on earth, Keziah," asked Squire Jones
of his sister Mrs. I.arkin, "did you give your
boy such an everlasting tough name? It's as long
as string Of dried apples"
"WelI, brother. boys are 50 particular when
they grow up, and always want romantic and
fine Sounding names, and SO told my husband
we would call the child Peleg Zarbbable Kish Ell
kanah IIababuk, and when he gets old enough
he can take his choice"
The Squire thought it would be hard picking
but he did not say SO, and Mrs. Larkin went on
with her knitting in state Of serene satisfac-
ton.
