EXAGGERATED EXPECTATIONS OF TRADE WITH JAPAN.
The present prospects of trade with Japan, the
ports Of which have just been opened to foreign
trade, does not appear to be so favorable as has
been anticipated. Although the islands abound in
rich resources, the caution and ancient customs of
the people in great measure, act a barrier to
successful trade, and these barriers not to be
removed at once. The manufactures of the nation
have so long been confined to Just merely the
cessties of the people, that much time must eapse
before surplus goods can be furnished to such an
extent will afford lucrative employment to ship
pers, and the mineral wealth which is as vet to
great extent undeveloped, must await the slow ac-
tion of japanese ingenuity to render that depart
ment of commerce of any real account. Foreigners
though allowed to trade with certain Japanese
ports, are not permitted to dabble in any manner
with the internal enterprise of the country and as
a consequence, whatever may be the productions
peculiar to the islands, will be of slow development.
At present the most important feature which
is presented is that our whaling vessels find an
chOrage and safe winter quarters In lew OF its
norris but all complain that great difficulty is
experienced in obtaining supplies and still greater
one is found in recruiting The port oil Hakodadl
is at present the principal rendezvous OF American
whalers and all declare that unless better facilities
afforded them, they will not enter the port. it
is to be hoped that such information may be mpart-
ed to the Japanese Embassy in the United States,
as will lead them to initiate more comprehensive
system of Commerce, Agriculture ana Mecnanism.
An incident illustrative of the very limited TRACE
| OF Japan may be given. An American merchant In
lso9 imported into that country only $50 900 worth
OF cotton and wooden goods which so gorged the
market, that part of them were afterwards taken
| TO emma and sold. Rice is raised in great abun-
dance, but the law is such that no vessel shall take
! away more pre- than one hundred piculs at time, "a
picui Is lSS lbs. The principal mineral produc-
ton is lead, but that article is so plenty in other
parts of the world and the means Of obtaining il SO
available, that it can hardly be made an article of
trade for years to come. Silk and other of the
finer productions are only in very limited demand.
