In spite of every endeavor of the japanese
officials nothing mas yet been elected to fix the
crime upon any individuals or 10 explain its
motives; but no government ever manifested a
more determined purpose to arrive at the
truth. BY ten o clock Thursday evening every
gate in YeddO was closed and sentinels sta
toned to prevent the egress or ingress of any
persons except under strict surveillance. By
midnight the rivers and all the canals were
guarded and no boats were allowed to leave
tne city or even to freely circulate.
Thursday evening aud partly on the fact that
Inc hatred which formerly existed against for
eiSners In Tosa has not yet been totally dis
pelied. At q meeting of foreign representa-
yves held in Yokohoma to consider what ac-
t'on should be taken 10 the case memorial
was adopted urgently calling on the japanese
government to disarm all subjects excepting
oincers of the highest rank.
Inc American envoy proposed to modify the
suggestion SO it should apply only to natives
nVing at or visiting open ports. but he was
overruled. 1t is doubtful whether his propo-
sitlon could be carried out. That which was
~ aSleeo upon Is simply and totally impractical
ue' as the government is quite poweress to
enect so radical change in the habits of its
people.

and statuary, the inspector finds Europe
brought to him instead of having to go abroad
to feast his eyes on the pictures and statuary
that stretch for miles in the great palaces of

can view at his leisure all the various schools
