Death of the Emperor of Japan.

Almost simultaneously with the nomination Of
Mr.. Harris as minister resident near the govern
ment Of Japan, comes the startling Intelligence
that the Tai X DON, or secular Emperor, IS dead,
and that his death took place sooal after signing
the American treaty. That asovereign, who was
described by Mr.. Harris as but thirty years OF
age. and in perfect health atfthe time OF signing
the treaty, should have been suddenly taken of,
naturally creates some suspicion as to the cause
of his death By japanese officials 1t was at tirst
attributed to pleursy, and subsequently to the
dropsy but the Dutch at Desirna ascribe 1t to the
orders of the Mikado, or spiritual Emperor, vino,
as they assert refused to recognize the treaty on
the ground that he should have been consulted
before it received the imperial signature. lie IS
said to have declared the act to be violation OF
tue laws of Japan, and to have notified the Ial
Koon that the time had come for him TO commit
..Hari Kari"-which.' being interpreted, means
that he shotld disefnbowel himself and that he
Immediately yielded obedience to the mandate.-
Insany yDther country than Japan, this proceed
ing would appear to De incredible; but there the
laws of the land--which are OF long standing and
cannot easily be changed--are as binding upon
the secular Emperor as upon the meanest OF his
subjects. If he infringes them, he IS :eid aIr.e-
nabIe to the pen lty; and there stroT reasons
for believing that the peHalty IN this case has
been vigorously exacted. The laws prolli biting
all intercourse with foreigners have been strictly
observed for snore than two centuries, and the
most influential princes of the Empire, together
| with alarge proportion of the japanese pCpula
| tion were strongly opposed to the radical cham
| ges which it was justly anticipated the recent
| treaties ,uld introduce If, moreover, the
statement be true that the Prince of Bitsu and
/ tile LIBERAL members of the government, with
whom the treaties were negotiated, haze fallen
! into disgrace. and that the former memters Of
i tie Imperial Council, who were IN favor Of COM
Ijlete isolation, have been restored to power-tha'

THE NEW COUNTY MOVEMENT.

We are glad to perceive that our citizens arc
at length alarmed by the efforts now being made
in our State Legislature to secure the passage of
the bill for the erection Of Pine county, during
the present session OF the Legislature. The citi-
zens Of Chest and Susquehanna townships, in
cluded within the bounds of the proposed new
county, are opposed to the measure almost to
man. Nearly all of them have signed -remon-
strances against the erection Of the new county
with its present boundaries. They entertain no
desire to dissozre partnership with little Cambria.
The erection of Pine county would confer no
substantial benefit at least nine tenths Of the
inhabitants included within its boundaries. On
the contrary, it would be serious injury to most
of them. They would be burthehed with taxes
for years to come. for the purpose of erecting
public buildings, and payirg other expenses in
cide.t to the organizing of a new county The
region of country included within the boundaries
Of the proposed new county is generally sparsely I
settled, and consequently the event of its erec-
ton, the taxation for county purposes would be
a a':burthen hard to. .bear.''r -..rrFr
AS we remarked a few weeks ago, we have nc
desire to cross the path of those of our Indiana
and Clearfed county friends who advocate the
erection of Pine county, only so far as they in
wade the territory of little Cambria. The proper
efforts should be made Immediately to prevent
the disnlembeImept of our county. The members
OF the Legislature may be deceived, unless the
facts are laid before them promptly, and action
pronalacand energetic, should be the watchw orc
of all opposed to the dismemberment of oul
county. - rF 55re-
