Conference.-The card of the Hon. Sherrard

mems does not say. in his card. that nc was au-
thorised by me to affirm, that would not ac-
cept the nomination for the office of Governor
of Virginia, if rendered to me by the Demo
cratic Convention. You deducc that inference
in the brief editorial article prctiXcd to his
card. from the language employed by Mr.. Gle
mems. and. in my opinion, the Inference is a
lust and natural one. You will allow me to
say, Mcssrs. Editors. that my friend, Mr.. Gle.
mems. labors under Il grave misconccption of

iscd by Inc to make any statement warrantlng
the inference drawn by you. | did say TO Mr..
Clemens that | did not seek, or desire, the
office of Governor of the State, being quite
content to remain in my present less conSplcu-
ons office. which was more congcnial with my
tastes. and the duties of which accord better
with my habits Of thought, and course oil
study. than any executive office Whatever
This position, beg leave, respectfully and with
perfect sincerity, 10 reaflirm. But ] have
never said. to him or others, that declined,
in any way, the use of my name IN the com
inc canvass or that would decline the ten
der of the nomination, if made by the Con-
~vcntion representing the Democratic party Of
the State. On the contrary, | have uniformly
declared, to all who have done me the honor
to solicit an expression Of my views, that the
high office in question was one neither to he
sought or declined. and that if the nomination
for il was rendered to me-, by the Convention,
il would be wholly inconsistent with the views
| entertain of my obligation as = citizen, to
shrink from the service Of the State; that in
such an event would promptly accept the
protfcrcd honor, and do all that in me lay. TO

lied her proud escutchcon.
Nv interview with Mr.. Clemens was casual
and brief. and | had no conception that he at
tached sufficient importance to It To make it
the subject Of 4 communication to the press.
Yet it was not confidential, and do not com-
plain of the publicity he has seen fit to give it.
The sole object oGxihis card is to correct a mis-
conception into which he has fallen, and to de-
fine. with more precision than he has done, my
true relation to the coming Gubernatorial can
vaSs in Virginia. In my view, the position as

clining. in any way, the Use Of my name in the

MISCELLANEOUS
TREATY WITH JAPAN.

Lieutenant lIaherSham, in his last letter 10
the Philadelphia Ledger, written on board the
United States steamer Powhatan at Simoda,
gives the following particulars OF the treaty
lately made with Japan. 1t provides:
Firstly. That the tax of six per cent. for
coming our money into theirs. now paid by the
American purchaser of japanese exports. shall
be dispensed with.
Secondly. The annual practiccof 'trainplins
the cross" which has existed. ~ .No9'sa6t
onlv, since about the year 1920. is 10 bc con
tinucd no more after the fourth OF July next;
and our Ministers and families to reside ut
Jeddol
Thirdly. The provisions Of the treaty to
take effect from and after July 18th. 1852. The
opening of some new ports forms an exception
To this article.
Fourthly. Americans may build churches
and worship their God; and religious freedom
is also granted to all Japanese.
Filthy. The port of Smoda is to be closed,
and that of kanagawa opened in its place.
Hego and the great city OF O>aca. OF which 1t
is the seaport, are also to he opened. vt Hego
the water is so bold that vessels may moor
close alongside the beach, and the back country.
is the most productive and thickly populated

Sixthly. 4 stipulation is made in the article
that opens Kanagawa, which is only seventeen
miles from Jeddo. which protects the latter
from the visits of foreigners. Mr.. Harris says,
however, that this will not last long. Such 4
