A JAPANESE MISSION.

The arrival of native born and reared
Japanese Minister and suite at San Fran
cisco, accredited to Washington, and hold
ing in his own person the rank of Prince
of the Imperial family-an uncle to the
Mikado-is an event of great diplomatic
significance. 1t is the first mission of the
kind sent forth by Japan for number of
years. She has not had any ministers,
consuls, or diplomatic agents of any kind,
accredited to any country for many years.
We have not heard of any other mission
being sent cut to any of the European
countries. This is one of the most promis-
ing signs of the influence and respect our
Government has gained abroad. The APP
pointment of Mr.. Burlingame as Minister
Extraordinary for China, and the arrival
of this japanese Minister, is indicative of
the good feeling existing between the
youngest and oldest of the powers of the
world.

WE suppose relaxation and recreation
are necessary for the relief of great minds
wearied with the burdens and responsible
ties of State affairs. Great men differ as to
their methods of seeking this relief Some
find it in the mirth and good cheer of a
fine comedy. Some get it in music, and
others in social intercourse. We have
heard of Governors of great States finding
it i'll giving notoriety and countenance to
cheap performers, who go about the State
practicing their tricks literally in the dark.
Private citizens, to crafty natural curl
osity or desire to serve an audience, can
afford to do many things ill-becoming an
official of high rank who is in duty bound
to have some little respect for the people
he represents and for the dignity of his
office.

FRENCH NEWS.

The selection of Al. THEIRS as President
of the Republic has been received with
favor by the Parisians, the only papers
dissenting being those of Rochefort and
Pyats. The Palais Royal has been set
apart for his residence, and he and the
Assembly will very soon move from Bor-
deauX to Paris.
He announces his ministry as follows:
Dufaure, minister of Justice Favre, for
eign affairs; Picard, interior; Simon, pub
lie instruction; Lambrecht, commerce
LIE Flo, war; Porthuan, marine. The
minister of finance is not named. The
election of Theirs is regarded by some as
a strong indication that the republic will
be speedily transferred to an Orleanist
in Germany, for we find the North-G Ger
man Gazette suggesting that the election of
Theirs looked like the renewal of anarchy
in France and inimical to reconciliation
with Germany.
Concerning the cession of territory as
the basis of peace, our exchanges furnish
the following items In the Assembly, on
Saturday, NJ. Keller presented declara-
ton, signed by several eastern deputies,
protesting on behalf of their constituents
against the separation of Alsace and Lor-
raine from France The committee to
whom the protest was referred reported
expressions of the strongest sympathy
with the people of Alsace and Lorraine,
and directed that the protest be recorded
and referred to the negotiators when they
come to treat with Germany for peace. 1t
is thought that the terms of peace have
been submitted to the Assembly, but no
perfectly authentic account of them has yet
transpired. French newspapers generally
are opposed to the cession of territory. La
Liberte says that a lasting peace on such
conditions would be impossible. Generals
Chanzy and Billot declared in the Assem-
bly, that defensive war may be successful
ly prosecuted if necessary. The Paris |
Pdtrie, however, grows more confident of |
peace. 1t is thought the armistice will be |
prolonged until the first of March.

INTIMIDATION of DEMOCRATS
The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1871-11-09

A correspondent of the Crystal Springs
Herald, gives the following sketch of a
speech delivered to the negroes few
days since at Dry Grove, by ii. I. Fish
er. of the the Leader and Mongrel Can
didate for the Legislature:
Fishers speech breathed spirit of ineen-
diarism which is calculated to engender hos
tilities between the two races and lead to
riots and disturbance. 1t was filled with
bIasphemous expressions and obscene vul-
0arities that would have made some of the
dpnizens of the holes of Five Points, New
York. hide their faces. my God" was used
thirty six times. He spoke of converts,
and administering bread and wine to his
proselvtes-such sacrilege as would make
the devils of hell tremble. He told the ne
rroes that they must cease to work for
the whites, and buy places of their own ;
that under Radical rule land would become
so cheap that they would be able to buy il
for a small sum of money. Many such
speeches would re-enact the scenes of the
Drv Grove riot. They do little towards
driving. away asperities, but do much
harm.
