NAPOLEON, when atSt. Helena, asked
Count Montholon. "Can you tell me
who Jesus Christ was?" The question
was declined, and Napoleon proceeded.
"Well, then. will tell you. Alexander,
Caesar, Charlemagne and myself have
founded great empires; but upon what
did these creations of our genius depend?
Upon force. Jesus alone founded His
empire on love, and to this very day
millions would die for him.
think 1 understand something of nu-
man nature; and tell you all these were
men, and [ am man; none else is like
Him; Jesus Christ was more than man
have inspired multitudes withsuch an
enthusiastic devotion that they would
have died for me, but to do this it was
necessary that should be VisiJIy pres
ent, with the electric influence of my
looks, of my words, of my voice. When
1 saw men and spoke to them. lighted
up the flame of seif-devotion in their
hearts; Christ has alone succeeded in
so raising the heart of man toward the
Unseen, that it becomes insensible to the
barriers of time and space. Across a
chasm of eighteen hundred years, Jesus
Christ makes demand which is beyond
all others difficult to satisfy; He asks for
that which a philosopher may often
seek in vain at the hands of his friends,
or father of his children, or bride of
her spouse, or a man of his brother. He
asks for the human heart. He will have
it entirely to Himself. He demands it
unconditionally; and forthu ith His de-
mand is granted. Wonderful! IN defiance
of time and space, the soul of man, with
all it's powers and faculties, becomes an
annexation to the Empire Of Christ. All
who sincerely believe in Him. experience
that remarkable, supernatural love to-
ward Him. This phenomenon is unac-
countable-it is altogether beyond the
scope of mans creative powers. Time
the great destroyer, is powerless to ex-
tinguish this sacred flame; time can
neither exhaust its strength nor put a
limit to it's range. This is it which
strikes me most; have often thought of
it. This is it which proves to me quite |
the Divinity of Jesus |
Christ.

The Taxes Disappearing.

The Republican party has made haste
to reduce taxation just as rapidly as has
beemed consistent with the mainten-
ance of the national credit The Dem
Ocratic party has been consistent in de-
nouncing every tax, in pursuance of its
general policy in crippling that credit.
In striking off 10000, 900 or more from
the internal revenue, Congress has done
great deal to relieve trade and indus
try and to give elasticity to enterprise,
and this will soon be felt.
That reduction is very great for a sill
gle year. If the funding process prove
successful, however, other taxes can he
swept away as soon as Congress assem-
bles in the winter. The income tax, for
example, Will not again be collected un-
til next May. If the revenues continue
good and the rate of interest be reduced,
that tax can be repealed in December.
In the meantime it will appear in the
resources of the Government if neeessa-
ry. The revenues are kept upat stan
dard adequate to any emergency. If
found to be practicable, the. income tax
and other taxes can be abolished before
the time arrives for fresh assessment.
1t is to be borne in mind that the reduc-
tion in the debt of over $4,000, 600 in
June, was due to the fact that much of
the income tax reaches the treasury in
that month. Payments cannot and ought
not to be continued at that rate. But
handsome eXcesSes in the revenue in the
coming months, after the effect of pend
ing reductions is felt, will justify the
further abolition of taxes in December.
We hope and believe that will be possi-

Advance ofthe Freedmsn.

A series of letters written by J. w.
AlyOrd, General Superintendent of Ed
uce tiOn of the Freedmep's Bureau, 10
Gen Howard, give in detail the facts
collected by Mr.. Alvord while on a tour
with reference to the education of freed
men. These letters constitute suffici-
ent reply to the constant assevera tions
of those who predict the decay of the
colored race. The statements that the
cOlored people are ''dying off" that they
kill their children; that they are inebri-
ates, diseased, degraded or thrif.less,
cannot be in any particular sustained in
the face ofth facts which are presented
Neither when tested by comparative
statistics of arrests, of crimes, of births
and deaths, nor by specifications of la
Dor, produce, accumulate dmoney and
purchase Of land, nor yet by school at
tendance aud advance in education, does
the colored population suffer in compari-
son with the white neighbors. Consid-
ering their previous condition, the ad-
vance of the freedmep in all material
and moral respects unquestiopably sur
passes that of the white people of the
Southern States. 2,571 day and night
schools, with l22, ,317 pupils; l 1,456 Sun
day schools, with $500 pupils, 3S nor
NAL or high schools, with 1884 pupils,
the advance of about 5000 pupils in the
higher branches; the accumulation of
S12, 100000 in savings banks, besides
nearly S1l ,000,0 drawn out chiefly for
important purchases, are guarantees of
the future progress of the freedmen as
wei as evidence of the important work
accomplished by the Freedmen's Bu-
reau.

,JeduO.

Jeddo.
Jeddo, the capital city of the Empire
of Japan, is in the 36 degree of latitude,
and is sal J to be one of the finest cities
in the world. The streets are wide and
the fine views of the gulf of Jeddo, with
the high hills beyond, and the pictur-
esque gardens, trees, and temples nearer,
make up many curious and beautiful
views for a stranger to see.
The Emperor lives in the middle of
the town, in the castle, surrounded with
three walls of enclosures. The mobiles
andgreat people haveall very fine houses
built principally of wood, carved, stuc-
coed and ornamented.- These houses are
generally built in squares, the middle
being the residence of the owner, the
rest those of servants, dependents, etc.
The gardens surrounding theseplaces are
laid out in good taste; every bit of ground
taken advantage of, and mimic effects of
scenery, such as tiny waterfalls, ponds,
rock-work, etc., very we'll got up.
The japanese bestow great care on the
growth oftimber trees. The cedars grow
to great hight;the oak tree, the mulberry
tree-many towns live entirely upon the
silk manufacture-then the urusi, or
varnish tree, of which the people make
celebrated varnish known everywhere
by the name of Japan; most of their
furniture is coated with this, and all

The Japanese carpenters are ingeni-
Gus work men, and their work is done
with marvellous neatness. y curious
feature of their houses is that they do
not contain nail, all of the joints and
timbers being dovetailed together by
many ingenious devices; and the whole
work, even to the rafters, is as smooth
as if it had been polished down with
sand-paper. And the Japanese are a
neat people, for they use no paint to hide
any blemishes of construction or or
namentation--no filagree work or plaster
of Paris gewgaws, but every stick in the
building is exposed. Every morning,
as regularly as she cooks the breakfast
or sweeps the floor, the Japanese house
wife takes wet cloth and scours the
whole of the dwelling, leaving no part
untouched, and no stain or dirt spot to
mar its cleanly appearance. Then the
Japanese do not come into the house
with muddy boots, after the style of the
American sovereign, but having cover
ed the floor with neat mating, always
remove the dirty sandals before step
ping upon it. We stood and watched the
japanese carpenters at their work some
minutes, and noted the popularity of
their movements. The Japanese car
penter works towards him; that is in
stead of showing plane from him, he
reaches out, g, Is the plane upon the
board at arms length, and pulls it to-
wards him; and he cuts, saws and chops
in the same way. His saws are fixed
on handles, like a butchers cleaver,
and the teeth slant or rake towards the
handle. The planes are constructed ,
like ours, but the wooden portion is

their plates, dishes and drinking vessels,
asthey 10 not appear to use glass orchina
ones; then the camphor tree, of which
the puzzle boxes are made; the pepper
tree, chestnut tree, walnut tree and many
other too numerous to mention.
They are the most curious people for
dwarfing all manner of trees and plants.
Growing things are twisted into all man
ner of shapes, and flowers and fruit of
one sort growing on plants and trees of
other sorts, outlying even Mother Ma
ture herself The love offiowers is strong
even among the very poorest off the peo-
pie, and few are without a pot or two, or
some kind of tree or shrub grown
against the back of the house, perhaps,
reaching in through the windows, and
loved and petted almost like children.
On account ofthe populousness of this
country every inch ofground is improv-
ed to the best advantage, and not only
the flats but the hills and mountains are
cultivated, and made to produce such
things as they can. The rice fields are
beautiful sight so well kept and drain
ed, and irrigated so carefully. They are
not unhealthy as in othe places. Com
mon vegetables are also grown in abun-
dauce; indeed, the poorer classes live
principally on fish and rice, varied by
vegetables or wild plants. Tobacco is al
so grown in quantities-the japanese
being great smokers. Their pipe has a
very small bowl, and hangs by button
from the girdle or belt-the people hav-
ing no pockets. These buttons are of
ten highly ornamented and expensive,
and the pipes themselves works Of art.
The tobacco is cut in fine shreds, bag
full of which hangs with the pipe at the
waist
Nagaski is the principal trading port
with foreigners, having been ehe longest
open to them. Decima, a small Island
close to this town, which is entered bya
bridge, is the famous Dutch station,
where for many years the Dutch people
had monopoly of trade with the Japa-
nese-submitting to all sorts of indigni-
ties and close confinement for its sake;
until within the past few years no for
eign women were allowed in the place,
and so tho Dutch merchants had to bear
this tedious exile from their families.
Most of these indignities, however,
were brought upon themselves, and
richly deserved by their dishonest at
tempts to smuggle, and overreache an
honest and trusting people. The Japa-
nese are not naturally a suspicious peo-
pie, and we must lay at the door of in
tercourse with civilized nations their
being so now. They have had hatred
and contempt for foreigners which it
will take years ofintercourse with some
of the better class of English and Amer
leans to do away with.

ask a distinguished railroad man who is

President of the Terre Haute Il Indian
apolis Railroad.) / state it as general
proposition. think l am not far out of
the way; that it will cost one bushel out
of every three of wheat to get 1t TO the

Mr.. McKeen-Very nearly.
Mr.. McKeen says | am very near

tat it will take one bushel out of three,
verp nearly, to send their wheat TO New
York, and then it costs good deal to
get it to Liverpool. And, when it comes
to corn, guess it takes one bushel to
send the other to New York-very near
ly, to send it to tie city of New York,
and then, if you go in search ofs foreign
market, which some gentlemen are so
bent on, you have to foot the additional
transportation across the Atlantic or
whatever sea it may be. So that it is
for our interest TO have our market at
home.
And, my friends, it is to our interest
to have all kinds of industry, all kinds

a monopoly, but say it is to our inter-
est TO have as many manufactures as we
can. Why, do you think everybody
ought to be farmers? Why, certainly
not. If so, the farmers could not make
anything. If everybody were farmers
then the farmers would have 10 market.
No, it is not the interest of those gentle
men who are engaged i'll farming to have
everybody olse Quit their mechanical
pursuits and go to farming. 1t is to our
interest to have diversified pursuits; to
manufacture, as far as we can, what we
need, that the men that Manufacture
may buy what the farmer has to sell and
sell to the farmer what he wants. My
friends, will any man dispute these
principles? And yet some politicians
will come before the country and argue
as if there really Was no honorable put-
suit except that of farming. They want
to iiatter the farmers, but the farmers
have too much good sense and too much
intelligence to be. fattered in that way,
They know that if every body was TO go
to farming they could make bat very
little at it. Their interest is TO have
good markets at home. One great con-
sideration that we have it TO look to now
is that of cheap transportation to the
Eastern cities. We have got to have
cheap transportation in some way, and
we are going to try and find out that
way. But | state the broad principle
that the nearer we can bring the market
to home the better for the farmers.
