From Japan.

Advces from Japan say that among the
causes apt to prolong the present depression
of business is the death OF Mikado. An op-
pressive law prescribes on such occasions
long national mourning and suspension Of
trade and amusements.
Many believe that the late Mikado was
guilty Of duplcity. His friends were badly
chosen. They had no ability or force Of
character. The Mikado readily lent his in
auence to any quarter which promised i'm
mediate benefit to himself and needy cour-
tiers.
The usual period Of mourning is fifty days,
at the end Of which ceremonies connected
with the selection and installation Of sue
cessor occupy thirty days. In the meantime
no Government or other business requiring
reference to the Court Of Mikado is trans
acted.
The visit of the foreign representatives to
Osaca had been postponed until the expira-
ton of the mourning.
The departure Of the brother OF the Tycoon
for Europe, on the 18th Of February, was an
event Of much interest. He is an intelli-
gent, energetic young man, with great pas.
sion for foreign travel, and was selected to
represent Japan at the Paris Exposition.
Sir Harry Parke sent an attache OF the
legation to Osaca to inform the Tycoon that
unless he means to transact business he can
expect no visit from the British Minister.

limit TO meet the interest on our enormous

merciless strangulation Of every proposition
to appropriate money for purposes not indis-
pensable to the operations Of the Govern

The Withdrawal Of the French
Troops.

In answer to a>resolution asking informa-
ton relative to the withdrawal Of the French
troops from Mexico, TIE President sent to-
day to the House of Representatives COM
munication from +. II. SAuLSrER, Acting
United States Consul at Vera Cruz, under
date of February 20, 1867, announcing that
l6,4OO French troops had sailed, or were EN-.
barked and ready to sail. The embarkation
was progressing rapidly, and it was the
opinion of French officers that oil would
have been embarked previous to March IL.
The Consul further says that MACMILLAN is
reported to have arrived at Queretaro with
nearly all of the available force of his party.
The Liberals have force Of 10000 men
around that place under EsCoBEDo, CoRoNo
and others. In Vera Cruz the Imperialists
are enlisting all the men they can. All is
reported quiet, and no officers had beer
quartered on the American residents since
February IA.

In reference to the discussions respecting
the loyalty of the new Senator elect from
Maryland, the New York Times asks: "If
continued, where is this partisan intolerance
to endH What limit is to be placed to this
absurd system Of adding test to test, and
doing oil that is possible to keep out party
adversaries Assuming it to be possible
that Mr.. THOMAS somewhere said something
adverse to the war, was he more criminal in
that respect than Mr.. GREELEY? OF Mr..
DRAKE it is said that at one time he coun
seled driving LINCOLN hirelings out Of Mis-,
souri, and there are other members of Con
gress and Senators. now hot radicals who
are charged with having, in the early stages
of the conflict, expressed their sympathy
with the rebels"
The Times scouts the idea of subjectine
Senator THOMAS to the ordeal of scrutiny
by the Judiciary Committee, when such men
as FERNANDO WooD are admitted to seats in
Congress without question.

Abiding to the general expression Of in
dignation by the Republican press Of the

the New York Tribune says:
"When politics are in their present c9ndi.
ton, very small fry manage to make a pro-
digious splitter, and to create no little Hurry
upon the superficial current Of public affairs"
We are surprised that Horace GREELEY
should employ such disrespectful language
towards q gentleman who is Mr.. GREELEY's
equal, II not his superior, in ability, consist
ency and all that contributes to make man.
hood honorable. Mr.. ADAMS is gentleman
who has never sought public position, and
who, when the Government decided to confer
Office upon him, modestly but firmly declined
II, preferring to pursue his profession quietly.
The Tribune says that the REPUBLICAN
"insinuates that by the rejection Of Mr..
ADAMS the Senate has cast contempt upon
his ancestors" We never insinuated any
such thing We would not offer such an
insult to Mr.. ADAMS; and we have too much
respect for his honored father, our dstin
guished Minister to England, and revere the
memory Of "his ancestors" too much to sup.

States could rise high enough to reach the

JONI QUINCY ADAMS is a gentleman oil

Yet he is the subject of the following bill

CLOSING PRICES OF GOVERNMENT SECURITIES


KNOXVILLE, Tenn, March 20.-Communi-
cation with most Of the counties Of East Ten
nessee is still suspended. The details of
losses by the food confirm the estimate that
East Tennessee is damaged over $4,000, 900.
Blount, Cooke Roam and Sewer counties all
lose heavily. In Blount county large flock
Of sheep were drowned. The loss of stock of
all kinds is unprecedentedly heavy. All the
farmers living on rivers will be very late with
their crops. The loss Of stock will be great
drawback. Parts Of the railroad bridges
washed away have been recovered. Trains
are now running to Chattanooga from this
point. Many lives were lost in lower East
Tennessee, and many families were left home
less and must suffer, Over one hundred car
loads of corn were destroyed at Chattanooga.
The depots are oil submerged, and much
freight destroyed. The rivers are still high
and more rain falling. No mails have been
received from the Northwest since the 4th OF
March.
