THE JAPANESE EMBASSY.

PHILADELPHIA June 1.-THE Japanese are
keeping quiet. The reported assassination of
the Tycoon. was communicated to Capt. Dupont
early this morning, bat having doubts as to the
anthenticity of the report, he has deemed it
proper not to divulge it to the Prince, preferring
to wait instructions from Washington, and the
receipt of more definite information If communi-
Gated to and believed by the Embassy, the pres
ent programme of their movements would be un-
doubtedly broken up. The Commissioners suppose
that if the report is not entirely unfounded it was
the Regent who was assassinated, and not the
Tycoon, who is lad of seventeen.

THE DISAPPOINTED BASTARD.

Sumner is evidently disappointed bastard
bitterly disappointed i'll not receiving a renow-
ing tuch of gutta percha or bamboo, which he
now needs to reinstate his political prominence
The necessities of partnership and the frenzy Of
excitement, induced his State for time
accept him martyr, but his consistent ana
persistent maingering and egotiStical exhibition
of his stripes and scratches Europe have
transformed sympathy into contempt. The real
heart of Massachusetts speaks out in the late
of the representative Train, who is approved
and commended by the press of that State for his
proper conduct under what was supposed an III
suit.
Sumner feels that he has lived out the capital
derived from the Gaming he earned In May, 1886,
The party needs another sensational issue, and
Sumner like a sneak, as he is feels that he must
be kicked again, or subside.
The insolent poltroon nevertheless has con-
trived to act out his part toleraby well, and has
even attempted a repartee in response to Senator
Chesnuts short but caustic APPLICATION of the
Mora of truth. He talks of the barbarism of
slavery land he proposes appendix to his
own Spnch-written ont and printed in advance,
as usual with this licensed slanderer-a reprint
of Senator Chesnut's reply. He dare not do If.
All enduring his cowardice and braZen pol
troonrv, he dare not give to Senator Chcsnut'S
reply the circulation he will seek for his
rhetorical rhodomontade among Northern readers.
If he does in desperation venture this We shall
give him credit for more thickness of hide
than have hitherto accorded him. But
step would remain. Let him add, as appendix
No. 2 in illustration of the ''barharism of slavery
a true account of the slavehoiding relations and
conduct of Albert Sumner. The documents can
readily be furnished from this city and Boston.
The New York Journal of Commerce says
The response of Senator Chestnut, of South Car
oina, although perhaps under the circumstances,
to be expected was hardly necessary called for.
Mr.. Sumner is SO completely useless and worth
less piece of Senatorial timber, that it hardly
worth the time of any Senatort to engage in con-
troversy with him, at this date of the worlds his
tory. His political friends will take that
he does not again cucumber the Senate, after the
expiration of his present term of office.
The New York Tribune expresses apprehensions
that Summers speech will delay the admission of
Kansas, and deprive A. Blunkin and the other
fellow of the Kansas electoral vote.
The amusing characteristic of the TribuneS
commants, is the cool and quiet assumption that
Sumner anything for Kansas. He is for
Charles Sumner, and is determined that Charles
Sumner shall be revivifed politically and official
ly by baculine stimulsnts. He has infinite re-
sources in cunning and cowardly expedients and
if the Southern gentlemen, who are compelled by
duty to sit in the chambe defiled by his pestolent
presence, or to meet him in the public ways OF
Washington. do not keep themselves in constant
vigilance, Sumner will yet surprise some of them
into bestowing the eagerly coveted Gaming or

nothing apout ad ualorem. The fact is it is SO af-
