minute and detailed than any received in this coun
try, OF the late troubles in the empire of Japan
have been sent to the British foreign office and are
published in the London papers, Mr.. Alcock. the
Enghsh representative who communicates them

does not seem to regard the disturbance as at an
end Our readers will remember that it was or
the morning OF the 24th of March when the Go
tal-ro, or Regent, was on his way to the castle O
the Tycoon, surrounded by his retainers, that 8
band OF seventeen men rushed upon the cortege anc
attempted the murder of the chief "None but
the most desperate men," writes Mr.. Alcock, will
ing to sacrifice their lives, could have ventured
upon such an enterprise" He adds:
''They do not seem, however, to have omitted
anything calculated either to ensure success in
their object, or their own escape afterwards A.

showing and raining heavily, from which they de

all hampered by rain-coats and waterproofs il

| The distance to be traversed was so short they
were very limited as to choice of place; for the
GO-tal-ros mansion stands on gentle accliyitv

their number pretending to thrust himself between

the Regent. Those Immediately about his person
on each side rushed to the front when the rest O,

thrusts through the sides of the vehicle in which
the Go-tairo was seated. Several of the attend
ants were cut down; two of the assailants were als
killed on the spot. While the melee continued

ran on with 1t, so that living or dead, its owne
might tell no tales. This man was only arrested a
some distance, and after he had dashed throuph
