THE JAPANEsE.-There are every day some
new items about the japanese which are in
terestng. Speaking OF the re ception by the
"Plinces'' of the members Of Congress and
their wives, 4 Washington letter says:
The dignity of these receptions Is seldom in
terfered with. excepting by the Japanese Puck,
"Tommy.'' In his Wanderings, ne sometimes
penetra,es the par!or who're the Ambassadors
sit in state, on which occasions nobility Is for
gotten, and public consideration is at once di-
verted from aged rank to youthful genius. 1t
often becomes necessary to eliminate the little
Interpreter, 10 prevent serious interruptions
OF the regular order of affairs but, i'll such
events, Tommy, conscious OF his own re-
sources, belakes himself to a n ad joining apart
ment and there gets up rec eptlon on his own
account, which presently eciipses the more
imposing demonstration, and brings together
a throng more numerous aud more devoted
than any the princes can secCre.
The officers and servants OF the Embassy
luxuriate in idieness. Photo graphy absorbed
them for Il while, but having now all seen
themselves duly put upon it per, this excite
menl has passed. Tritiing purchases take up
a portion OF each day. The japanese are
gaining wisdom III the matter of sole-leather.
Csokahara Jougoro gives good example by
appearing i'll CATERS OF Washington man u
facture and astonishing size. The hrst day
after his arrival here he had two cases OF
shoes brought into his room, every par OF
which he carefully inspect ted before deciding
upon his purchase. Several sets mat Htted
him exactly, and gave his lltiie foot the neaiest t
possible appearance, We're thrown aside III ii.-
vor OF a couple Of huge objects, which he
honestly declared We're better suited 10 his
untuiored toes. Since that lime, many OF the
subordinate officers have adopted CATERS, IA
variably selecting the largest available sizes,
according to the example of their comfort
loving leader and often, III Tn cir ignorance OF
our American prices, and their indifference 10
matters OF money, pay ing for them sums 4 ate
proportionate to tner dimensions.
The doctors are providing for the recovery
of their invaiids, OF whom there are three or
four in the party, ali servants. Their mode
of treatment is very simple, and does not dii-
fer in essential points from that OF our own
physicians. The servants generally entertain
themselves by affa5le commun'cationS wita
the children who cluster about their WIN
dows- tossing them japanese cnnfectionaries
and pictures, and receiving III ret'tri pEoiuse
thanks, with which they appear fully sat
istieu.

GARlBALDIis LANDING PA E-Marsala
where Garibaldi has landed, is port OF Sicily,
situated about9 95 miles from Palermo. 1t be-
longs 10 the Province OF Trapani. which ex-
tends, well as the Province of Palermo and
that OF Nlesslna, along the north coast of the
island. Marsalh carries Oh "A large business in
The wine which bears its name 1t also deal,
in corn, fruit, cotton and salt. The opulatiOa
Is about 20,UIu. II possesses humber OF for
egn commercial houses, the most important of
which are English. l was a fiourishing place
under the Romans, and its prosperity was
maintained until the close OF the fifteen tn
century. In 1892 the port was filled up by or
der OF Charles ", topreyent the fleets OF Soil
man II. from getting possession OF it, II has
never completely recovered from that dsts ter
and vessels OF large tonnage canno enter. The
attack on Marsala indicates the plan conceived
by Garibaldi. He carries the struggle on the
north coast of the island where all the strong
places are situated, and approaches those po-
sitions, which, II seized on by him, will give
decisive results.
