the treaty with the United States have succeeded in
obtaining an acknowledgment, principal, than all
the ports of JAPAN without distinction shall be
lively opened to European commerce. Not only have
the notifications of the treaty of 1856 been exchanged at
Nangasaki, but the articles of the highest impor
