TIE japanese Essbassy.

It would appear from the lsttors Of officers Of
the U. s. steamship Niagara, which carried
home the Japanese Embassy, that the whole
affair was grand deception. Tho ambassa-
dors and their troupe Of servants on reaching
their own land disembarked in the most unos-
tentatious manner, and were not sscn after
wards. Their enormous luggage, including
all the gifts Of eur inventors and m,nufactur-
ers, were put ashore in olumsy old junk' and
removed without any display. The Times,
which has published several letters from officers

Extraordinary Story.

About the year 1887, Sir JoHS FESwiCK, Of
Fenwick Hall, England, married CLARA SEY.
MouR. She was the daughter Of poor Cum
bsTland clergyman, and, Of course, brought to
the union neither money nor influence. But
she was beautiful and most amiablc, and for IL
years her husband loved her with a most
passionate love. But, At the end Of that tims
two sisters Of Sir JoHS, dcspairing Of what they
had long hoped for, the death Of his only son
and heir, the true hero Of this story, persuaded
Sir Jous that his wife had confessed to them
that her son was the off'pring not Of her hus-
band, but Of foreigner, whith whom, eS en-
during her honeymoon, she had intrigued at
Paris. Overlooking IN his rago the Obvious
interest his sisters had in dcce'ving him, Sir
JoHS banishcd both mother ani son from his
house. The former after many painful ycis-
situdes Did, having previously sent hsr
son tO ore Of her relatives settled on an
extensive ranch or farm On the bor lers
Of Texas. While residing there he was

YANKEE ENTERrRIsE-A CHEAP BARGAIN
A short time since We called attention TO an
offer made to government by the New Eng
land fishermen Of the services of them
selves and vessels against the Southern
privateers. That offer was declined by
Secretary Weles. We understand that the
same patriotic and enterprising class of men
have another proposal to make of still more
advantageous character, but are deferred from
sending it in to the Navy Department from a
repugnance to encounter second refusal
They are ready it is stated, to enter into con-
tract with the government to sweep the ocean
of privateers and to close all the inlets of the
Southern coast for million of dollars--they de-
fraying all their own expenses. The country
would save many millions by this arrangement.
We should like to hear the objections to its &C
ceptance.

longer because of the inability or unwillingness
of the people to pay the taxes which the war
involves, particularly the Western States, which
will be sure to revolt against these burthens.
Now how does it happen that New York city
pays such enormous taxes, year after year,
without revolving, though these taxes are for
the most part expended in corruption and ex-
travaganee? AS for the Western population,
they will be more benefited by the result of the
war than any other section of the country. The
free navigation of the Mississippi is highly i'm
portant to them, and the success Of the federal
arms secures that object to them forever.
Meantime the army Of the West will consume
the surplus provisions they have to sell, and
pay them in gold. They never kad such good
times before. Then we learn from late intelli-
gence from Europe that there is every probable
lily Of short crops at the other side of the Atlantic
There. then, is another market for their produce
instead of the South, closed to them by the block
adc. Hence they will have plenty of money in
their purses, and will not grumble about the
taxes for so necessary purpose. AS it is, the
most enthusiastic portion Of the free States in
favor of the war to restore the Union is the
West The London Times is, therefore, mistaken
in this, as in many other matters connected with
the war.

THE TRIcKsrERs or THE REGENCY.--The cen
trail organ of the Albany Regency is just now
playing the boldest confidence game of a polit-
cal Peter Funk. 1t is publishing Daniel s..
Dickinson's war speeches, which it qualities
with many malignant dig at Dickinson; it Is
strong for the war, but it prefers the success of
treason to the suspension OF the writ Of habeas
corpus. The Regency, in fact promise TO OUT
Herod Herod in the support of the government,
although whenever they can give il sly stab
under the fifth rib they whip out their dagger,
use il, and then whip it in again, with that
smile of injured innocence which only the adept
in treachery can express Let them GO on They
are burning out the fag end OF their candle.
