five other skeletons, four Of which ap-
peared to have been more recent than
the other two. Investigation seemed to
show that all on board had perished
from hunger. The bowsprit Of the YES
sci bore the name of Glenalvon. Two
decOmpOsed corpses were found in the
forecastle and the Captains corpse was
found in a staterOOm, making nine that
were found altogether. The papers found
on board were to be given to the author
tiles at Sydney, with a view to learning

President Grant has addressed aletteT,
under date Of the second instant, to the
manufacturers of Philadelphia, in reply
to an invitation 10 visit their establish
ments, saying he cannot at present, but
at a later day, when the excitement of
the political campaign passes, he viii
take great pleasure in making the visit.
He says: a. 1 feel a very great interest in
the success of the manufacturing inter-
ests of the country and their develop
ment, looking upon their growth as ne
cessary to the solvency of the nation by
keeping down the balance of trade
against and in dignifyiDg labor and
making it remunerative. You have my
best wishes for the success of your re- |
spective interests, and Of all manufactu-
mt
our productions by home labor for eX-
ports, exclusive of promises to pay,
equal our impOrtauOns, or exceed them.n
The Japanese Ministry on the Situation
his People.
A Washington special says at the in
terview yesterday between the Presi-
dent and the japanese Envoy Minister,
MOri, in response TO a remark Of the
Presidents relative to recent news
from Japan said his own advices up to
this time did not sustain it, but he hoped
soon to be able to lay full intelligence
before this government. The President
that the progressionists ap-
peared to be far in advance of public /
sentiment, which MOri admitted, re-
Deating his views Of a day or two ago,
hat the best policy was TO admit retro |
yressionists by their shape of power; as
,imilate them TO prOgressiveness by ed |
lcatiOn. MOri further said that in his |
opinion a progressive tendency is ire
iistible. Further conversation was had |
n reference to the Japan loan and the |
Of Japaneses naval vessels |
n New York. The Legation, it is said |
S evidently alarmed at the idea Of pub |
icity being given to the late news upon |
he internal situation of the Empire.
