The Cry OF OsAcA.-The City of Osaca is one
of the Oldest in the Empire, and bears the not
very moral reputation of being : . the Paris of
Japan" The streets are wide and clean: the
houses. like all japanese houses, are low, of one
story and a half, open in front in warm weather,
and closed in winter by paper shutters. The shops
are large and filed with many curious goods. The
city for n great portion of its extent, Is intersected
by canals. and some travelled ones found n great
similarity 10 Venice, although the sunny shallow,
dirty canals of Osaca bear little resemblance 10 the
romantic descriptions of the dark. deep. solemn
channels through which Venetian gondoiers scull
their black bosts. The sides ofthese Osaca canals,
far from being shut in by the high walls of lofty
palaces. are bordeTed by the less interesting but
more valuable saki distilleries, for this city makes
and sends annually To the different ports of Japan
millions OF gallons of saki. Ii is estimated that
more than $500 pinks sail from Osaca to the
single city of 1eiO. carrying the saki and soy to
supply the wants of the numerous inhabitants of
this city. This trade, which Is now III the hands
of the japanese exclusively, must sooner or later
become the possession of foreigners, whose vessels
can make the trip to Yedo and back in 80 days,
against the loo of the numbering junks. These two
manUiactures-sak and soy-are the principal
products of the city, but there are 10 be found
there fine lacquer and a peculiar sort of red China
much priced by the japanese. Beyond this there
is little to be bought and nothing of permanent
use 10 foreigners, although when the port is opened
some enterprising men may discover some articles
worth exporting. The city has been the head
quarters of the Tycoon during the recent war, and
he has still continued his residence there, since 1t
is. by reason of its proximity to the capitol of the
Mikado, much more convenient for the settlement
OF the difficulties at present existing.

The. ClerkemWell Explosion.

The cable reports that a daring attempt TO re-
lease the Fenian leader Burke was made by the Fe-
mans in London yesterday afternoon. Atabout
4. p. ", three men, accompanied by a woman, were
observed by persons passing at the moment to roll
a barrel against the wall of the Clerkenwell Green
prison, where Burke, who was arrested a short
time since-charged with an active completely In
the Fenian riots in MancheSter-and other Fenian
prisoners were confined some under remand from
a magisterial examination in the police Court,
and others awaiting transmission to different towns
for trial.
The barrel was placed at the wall bounding the
side of the prison yard in which persons confined
in Clerkenwell are permitted to take exercise at
the hour of four u. NJ. Soon after ii was fixed in
its position an awful explosion, followed by most
disastrous consequences. took place. The prison
wall was blown down to Il great extent, a gap al
most one hundred feet wide having been made.
The Westinghouse situated on the line of street
opposite to the prison were shattered, many of
them being almost completely leveled to the earth.
Two men, with a woman, who, it is supposed,
are the persons who fixed the barrel, were imme-
diately arrested, but the third man, who was seen
to light the fuse which was applied to it, made
his escape.
None of the prisoners confined in the Jail got
out, rs the term of their time of outdoor exercise
had terminated, and they had been marched from
the yard and locked up in their cells just before
the explosion took place.
The street opposite, which runs parallel to the
prison, at the spot is narrow and built with houses
three stories high. Twenty houses were almost
utterly demolished by the explosion. The city
fremen were Immediately summoned to the spot,
and employed in digging in and under the ruins
for dead bodies. Forty persons, men, women and
children, have been found to be wounded. Four
of them have already died.
The Herald dispatch, which gives the foregoing
particulars, adds The whole city of London is
terribly excited by the fact of this sudden and
daring attempt. Everybody feels alarmed, for tho
serious reason that no one can foretell where the
next blow of this description may fall. The Gov
ernment is becoming exceedingly active. All the
Fenian funeral professions projected in Ireland in
memory of the Manchester convicts, have been
strictly prohibited, and measures of still more
stringent character are looked for ON the part of
the cxecutive.-N. Y. Post, Dec. L.
