The Japanese Embassy have. safely
landed in the city, and are taking their
first view of American customs and man
ners. AS you already know, the gentle
men composing the Embassy are sent out
by their Government with a view of dis
cussing with the leading treaty powers,
on all matters bearing upon their political
relations, as well as securing a proper re-
vision of existing treaties. The Embassy
is composed of men holding high and i'm
portant rank lin the Japanese Imperial
Council and the Ambassadors are men of
great ability and influence in their native
country, the entire body being the most
important that the japanese Government
is able to send abroad.
One of the japanese Princesses, des-
tined for Vassar College, is exquisitely
beautiful, and will make sensation.
The Embassy and suite, with the eXcep-
tion of the Prime Minister, arrived here
in the most outlandish English ready-made
garments of all styles since the flood, but
have already discarded them for the most
fashionable clothing obtainable here.
The Prime Minister still adheres to
the native costume of richly embroidered
satin. The reception by the civil, militia
ry and naval officers has been going on all
day. The citizens manifest respect, but
there is no vulgar sightseeing or offensive
curiosity manifested.
Iwakaura, the First Ambassador, is Vice
President of His japanese Imperial Ma
jesty's Ministry, Sandeo being President.
| Iwakaura is somewhat over,ffty years of
age, of second official rank, and man of
such superior ability as to be commonly
termed the Tenno's right-hand man.
THE Tenno is improperly termed the Mi
kado. Iwakaura is, in fact, the principal
working executive officer of the Japanese
Government. To him, more than any
other man, is due the recent revolution
and its results, and he now wields a cor
responding force in the japanese Minis
