The Japanese Embassy.

! Thereople of San Frai cisco are making much
ado over the arrival Of ''Kim-moor ah sit'to-
no eami." Admiral and Commander in Chlet
ofthe japanese Navy As Captain OF the
Japanese war steamer, "CandInmarr"h' he
brings to the port of San Francisco the
American shipwrecked seamen of the ~. Fin
more Cooper" This being done. by authori
ty of the japanese Government, is evidence
of the kind feelings Of Japan towards us, and
every return that We can make in aeknOwl
edgment Of such an act we should not hesi
tate to render. A public reception has been
given Admiral Kim-moor- sit-to- no cami
by considerable portion of the people of
San Francisco, and complimentary resolutions
adopted by the Board of Supervisors, which
were read to Kim-m moor-ah- sit-to-no-c cNmi
by a qualified interpreter. Kim-moor-ah-
sit to-no cami was also beveraged and feasted.
All this was well. Nay, it was highly proper,
and, so far as we are concerned, we approve
it cordially. Our Government has recently
concluded commercial negotiations with the
japanese Empire She has opened her ports
to us, and granted us many privileges hither
to denied to the great bulk of the world.
Besides all this, she evidences her friendly
disposition towards us in a very decided man
ner; and we should be exceedingly wanting
in all the amenities of civilized and polite
society, if we did not meet this japanese EN-
! 1 - Al oft antinn and
sideration. The Assembly of the State Leg
islature has passed resolution that a joint
committee Of the Assembly and the Senate
be appointed to enquire what means should
be taken by the State in order properly to
receive this Embassy. Of course, if the Sen
ate are not out Of their wits, they will con-
cur in the resolution. A good impression
would be left upon the minds of these visi-
tors, and, above all things, great State like
California should not suffer hsrself to forget
those hospitalities which distinguish all civ
ilized and refined communities. On the score
of interest, we certainly have nothing to
lose, by the courtesy which this occasion re-
quires, for the trade Of Japan is no beggar-
ly commerce.
RESOLUTIONS OF THE MICHIGAN DEMOCRATIC
STATE CONVENTION give the concluding
resolutions adopted by the above named
Convention
That, as the safety, repose and prosperity
of our whole country can be guaranteed only
by the success of the Democratic party in the
approaching Presidential contest, and rs we
believe that that success can be made abso-
lutely certain only under the name Of our
great Northern leader, we feel that it is with
no selfish purpose, but from q sincere devo-
tion to the common good, that in the present
crisis of public affairs we appeal to our breth
rem of every section of our country to yield
their national, local preferences for other EN-.
inent statesmen, and to join with us in the
nomination of our favorite Chief of the
Northwest.
That admirng his broad, national states
manship his loyalty to true Democratic prin
eiples, his impartial defense of national ii hts
against sectional claims, and that heroic eour
age which, in behalf of the right, quails at
no difficulty or disaster, and confident that
under his matchess leadership the enthusias-
tic masses can and will sweep the Northwest
from center to circumference, the Democracy
of Michigan present Stephen A. Douglas as
their unanimous choice for the Presidency,
and they thereby instruct their delegates to
the Charleston Convention to spare no hon
orable efforts to secure his nomination.
SO much for the State which has given
Gen Cass to the country. And that Gener
al Cass endorses the action of his State is as
certain as that he himself was the earliest
champion of those same principles for which
Stephen A. Douglas is contending.
