These high prices and high bounties are, how

THE WAR In Japan

If we except the blowing of Indian prison
ers of war from the mouths of cannon by Brit
ish soldiers III 1858 and 1859, nothing more
atrocions has occurred in the history of our
time than the recent bonn bardhent of the town
OF Kagosima, in Japan, by the British feet
under Admiral Kuper.
The excuse for this outrage was the murder
of an Englishman who, with the arrogance of
his race had undertaken to violate one of the
preiudces of the Japanese, and who paid the
penalty of his folly with his life. By way of
retribntion, the British first extorted large
sum of money from the japanese Government,
and, having got this, proceeded to bombard a
town as large as Boston, without warning 10
the women or children. The ruffian who com
manded the British vessels on this occasion
actually felcitated himself and his Govern
ment on his belief that sat least half the town
had been set in fames.'' And these are the
Pecksnifs who abuse Gilmore for using
Greek fire against place from which all wo-
men and children had been warned month
before?
1t seems likely that the English will find
they have an elephant on their hands in ia
pan. Their business with the japanese is to
sell them British manufactures. They will
discover that they cannot lombard them into
buying British goods easily as they bonn
barded the Chinese Government into repeal
ing the prohibition on imports of opium. The
japanese will fight. The English may destroy
s'half town. here and there, and put to death
numbers of helpless women aud children, but
the population OF the Japanese islands, led by
the Daimios, will not give mp the contest.
And we are much mistaken if the japanese
sailors, who are brave and enterprisug, do
not presently carry the war outside OF their
own waters.
BON harding lourishing seaport without
notice is very grand achievement, no boubt.
But the God OF war frowns upon such atroci-
ties, aud fhey seldom lead TO any thing but
WeekIy.
