A CURIOUS JAPANESE J Al The japanese
whom we regard as being at best only semi
barbarians, never punish any one for escaping
from prison. They hold that il is the natural
right of every one TO exert his ingenuity for
regaining his liberty; and, when rstaken, no
harshneO is used in the conveyance back or
subsequo-t detention. If there be blame
anywhere, ii is with those who suffered him u
escape through remissness in vigilance. This
we have on the authority of Russian, who
was one of the few survivors from a We sseI
wrecked OF. their inhospitable coast. After
being incarcerated according to thier accus-
toned rule, he csc sped to where he exprc,ed
a boat would take him to some Of the Euro
pean ships in the ofdng; but he was recap
tured, and lodged again in prison. He was
greatly surprised at his mild treatment sfter-
wards, which he feared was only preparatory
to cruel death, till he learned their criminal
escape law.
