OUR JAPANESE VISITORS.

On the arrival of the Japanese Embassy in
New York, on their way to visit the Great
American Tycoon at Washington, they stopped
at the Metropolitan, where the No-Kamis and
Tommy, under the superintendent of Alder
man Boole, stopped on a former occasion, some
years ago. This time, by the request of the
Messrs' Leland, we were asked to come on and
accompany the illustrious visitors around that
city, to act as their confidential friend and
guide, to Ois< all their bills Except their hotel
bhls), and to keep them from the professional
''Conndentials" who are so anxious to make
the acquaintance of strangers, particularly
those who use only gold, as is the case with
my friends from Japan

must be wide awake. Sum-Punk- Kin bade me

reference to crossing all of the bridges in the
Park. Going through the walks, Rootah Ba-
Gah would insist on taking all the direction
boards for praying machines, and had the
greatest difficulty in preventing the whole
Embassy from falling down before a little
rustic seat in the Ramble, on which was sitting
young man with an opera-glass cycling some
ladies in the distance. They mistook it for a
sacred shrine with its idol

of the place. l assured them it was an idle
image, but that New York abounded with
them, and that nobody worshipped them but
silly girls. After viewing other interesting
objects in the Park, we returned to our hotel.
When we arrived there we found that some of
the Embassy had been to the Auction stores
down Broadway, and had purchased some
halfa-dozen watches apiece and Sum-Punll-
Kin, the Treasurer had bought a bottle of
Spalding's Liquid Glue, which he supposed
was to dress his hair, and with that belief he
saturated his pigtail to its utmost capacity,
when on retiring to rest for the night, it was
found that the supposed hair oil, being glue,
had "set," as the cabinet-makers say; and he
not being hen, could neither set nor lay in
any comfortable posture, and going to sleep

as showing greater proficiency in acrobatic
attainments than that possessed by a majority
of the passengers. l explained to Fat-Tom-
Mato afterwards that the hurry in getting off
the boat was not to show their gymnastic abili-
ties, but it was merely custom, originating
in the fact that most of those who practised
this speedy way of doing were hungry shop
keepers, anxious to get home to their supper.
Now and then one of them was drowned or
had his head mashed, but as a general thing
the feat was performed with safety. ING
Onionsett thought spring board on the end
of the boat would be an improvement, as the
experienced traveller could then leave the
boat with double somersault.

the ferryboat little boy tried to sell the cele-
brated Japanese puzzle, which consisted Of
two pieces of wire linked together, and which
was greater curiosity to the Japs than to
anybody else. When the boat reached the

course ran and jumped over the chains before
