Letter About the Japanese.

From Hon. James Brooks Letter to N. Y. Express
dated last June.
But what most astonishes us new corners
was the Georgia costume, minus the spurs,
of these interesting fishermen! The fish
men were as naked as the fish-that is the
most of these fishermen ! Some Of them
had something on, but nothing to speak
of. Anatomy could be studied practically
as well as phrenology and physiognomy
and physiology is, muscular and
Venus anatomy. E
There are lot of tumble boys, funny
fellows, with caps on their heads, stuck
with red and black feathers, looking lik e
ROSTERS combs, who roll up, and roll over,
like balls of dirt, then all together. They
want only ''cash, tenth part of cent,
thus to tumble over and over. "All
Right,n in the American-Japanese Jug
glers, corps, was thus trained in q Japan
street, and came from that school there.
There is mother with a baby on her
back, slung q yd American Indian pa
poose, and the poor baby is fast asleep,
with its head, toppling all about. The
mother, perhaps, would not have much,
if any, clothes on, if ithad not been neces-
sary othrow over her the sack for the
baby to sleep or live in.

THE FRAUDS OF TAMMANT.
The Carpet SMindle.

The New York Times gives careful cal
culation by a carpet firm of what 1t would
cost te carpet the city court hose. That
estimate puts the cost Of carpets, together
with fitting them. and laying them on the
floors at triie over thirteen thou0aT'd dol
lars, (s13,3 The carpets cost according to
official figures Of the Ring, three hundred
aud thirty-sir thousand, eight hundred and
t,oeuty-one dollars, 1886, ,82l). Upon these
figures the Times pointedly comments as
follow; o.. ,,.r-.. .r,z -., ina v
The question now arises, What became
Of the carpets represented by this $780,
871 81? We cannot answer this. But Boss
Tweed's son has Just opened the Metropol-
itan Hotel, and we find the following de-
scription Of the house in yesterdays Sun.
1.-THE new furniture is gorgeous. Every
room in the hotel has been completely rem
ovated and redecorated, and entirely re-
furnished. The ladies' parlor is perfect
paradise. Royol Witons and Administers
coucr the floors, and gold and walnut fur
niture abounds. The bridal chambers on
the third floor are marvels of elegance.
Arn1inster carpets of the Softest tint cover
the floors, and in the bedroom is an elabo-
rately-carved walnut bedstead OF the
Turkish pattern with furniture to match.
The bridal suite consists of parlOr, two
bedrooms and two bathrooms, all connect
ing. The furniture in each corresponds.
The famous corner suites, which in War
rem Leland's time were SO popular, have
been fitted up with an extravaganza that
seems almost incredible. The one on the
second floor is furnished with mauve mo
quette, cith H'ilton carpets and tdn1brc-
dui,s to match. That on the third floor is
in blue satin and lace, nth the finest Of Ar-
minister on the floors. The furniture in
both these suites is a miracle of carving
and gliding, and seems better fitted for
fairy palace than public hotel Among
those who congratulated the young proprie-
tor were Hon o. W.Brepnd's, Senator Nor
ton, Hon. Thomas G.. Fields, Judge Shan.

tables Champagne flowed like q noun :

| The Kuklux BiII I'm South Carolina.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-Clcws, Habileth d
Co., of London, the foreign house Of Henry
Clews & Co., of New York, have been designa-
ted as the fiscal agents of the United States gov
ernment at London, trust which until now
rested in the house of Barring Brothers & Go.
Thirty years ago, after the negotiation of the
Ashbuton treaty, the agency WAS taken from
the Bank of England, which had held the office
ever since the establishment of American inde-
pendencc, and given to Barring Brothers d Co.,
in compliment 10 Lord Ashburton, who was q
member of that firm, and who negotiated the
| treaty which bears his name, For over quar-
ter of century Msssrs. Barring Brothers have
done the government business and the account
is now Transferred to Clews & Co., as recognl-
ton of their valuable services in promoting the
negotiation of the several loans during and
since the war. All the money received in the
diplomatic service and all the collectonsot
United States consols in Europe, South Amerl-
ca part of Asia and Africa are remittcd to this
agency in London, which is the official repre-
sentative of this government in all financial mat
ters relating to foreign countries.
The President went off to-day.

ment from the postmaster at Savannah, Ga,
saws the mails, and also all cars and passengers
from Charleston arc refused admttance into
Savannah in consequence of the fear of the
epidemic yellow fever. 1t is also stated that
| the mails from Charleston will be sent by way
of Augusta.
The meeting Of the Cabinet to-day was at
tended by all the ministers, exceptieg tho Post
master General and the Secretary of the Trea-
sury, both of whom were absent The Prcsi-
dent early called the attention Of the members
present to the letter of Senator Scott, of Penn
sylvania, alleging cause for a declaration ol
martial law in certain counties in South Caro-
lima, which was handed to the President yester-
day. Without any decision of consequence,
this letter was referred to the Attorney General
to take action concerning the application of the
Kuklux law upon the statements contained
therein and as soon as this sficial has made .
report, the proclamation will be issued. s
| The Cabinet also considered the Corean dith-
culties, but it is understood the question will be
left for the action, of Congress. A largeamount
of routine business was accomplished.
