that country In October tst, 10 to s,eugthcn
the idea that Commodore Peiry's treaty w1l
not prove, as has been feared, entirly barren
Of results. There is, indeed, OF mach pros-
pect OF trade with the japanese, as they have
very little to sell, and little disposl ioh to Ike
payment in ANYTHING but silver. Our Consul
General has, however, succeeded in negotia-
ing an important arrangement, by which our
silver coins, instead of being reduced TO half
its value or less in comparison with japanese
money. are now taken nearly at par. The
port of Simoda. on the south coast Of the
main island, and n t far from Jeddo, is likely
to prove of very little advantage to us. But
that OF Hakodadi, on the Straits of Jesse,
promises to turn out a very usefdl port Tor re-
freshments and repairs, especially Tor the
large whaling fleet which freqdents the neigh
boring seas. Hitherto, there has been great
difficulty in obtaining fresh beef there, as the
OK is regarded Ly the japanese as a sacred
animal, and IL not killed for food. Measures
however, have recently been taken by the au-
thorities for supplying the ships with fat cat
tie. Fish "a leading artical of diet with the
Japanese), poultry and vegetables are said 10
be abundant. The harbor is said to be a very
fine one in fact, about the best on the whore
Asiatic coast. II is also stated that coal is
mined abnndantly in the vicinity; so that,

ton. The pending operations Of he English
against China NAV, tend to arouse the fears
and jcslousies of the japanese, but they nav
also have the eff."t of suggesting to then the
wisdom OF voluntary concessions.
