Our advancement in the arts and
sciences of the western nations we
now consider a substantial bene-
fit to our 1stion, and we desire
that with every increase Of national
intercourse there shall be an increase
of international friendship. Cheers. ]
With a view of Fastening these results
and of further facilitating the instFuc-
ton of our people In the civilization
of western nations, his tmpe-
rial majesty has commissioned US
to visit all those countries having
treaties with Japan, in the capacity
of ambassador plenip0tentiary, first
visiting your country. The warmth
of our reception is unquesdOnable
proof of this friendship of Ameri-
ca for Japan, and It Is more than
echoed In the hearts of our people.
( Cheers. Your expression Of feeling,
when announced to his imperial mai
esty, will be made known throughout
Japan, and assist In cementilg a mu-
tual friendship between our countries,
which it is the wish Of the Japanese
people should constantly increase, as
by intercourse we get to know each
other better. Cheers.

The principal defense which will be
set up In Stokes trial will be that a
bitter ennity existed between Stokes
and Fisk, and as there were clrcum-
stances tending to establish eonspir-
acy 10 take the life Of Stokes, the
latter therefore committed the shoot
ing in self-defense. Stokes friends
claim that few days before the shoot
ing men we're discovered to be on the
track of Stokes; that they had been
following him for week previous.
An attempt will be made to prove at
the trial that Fisk was armed when
hs was shot, that q loaded revolver
was taken from his person; also that
the wounds from the bullets were In
sufficient to kill Fisk. Every effort is
to be made by Stokes counsel to have
the trial deferred as long as possible.
There seems to be no sympathy in the
community for Stokes,

AMONG the abuses unearthed by the
New York custOmhOuse investigation
the most scandalous and nefarious Is
the general order" system which
was insugUrated In 1854 by the refusal
OF the Cunard company to be held re-
sponsible for goods after they were
discharged, the managers Of the line
In that year obtaining from congress
legislative sanction for putting upon
All bills OF lsding contract exempt
ing them from liability iOr shipments
after their delivery on the docks Of
the company. The collector being
liable for the safety Of the goods, had
thus, in self-protectiOD, to turn them
over 10 general order" warehouses,
there to swat the convenience of inn
porters. This being the case, the
blame for the expense and tronble
arising out OF this system is primarily
ehsrgeable upon congress that per
mitted e steamship company to ab-
solve itself from liability for ship
ments the moment freights were de-
posted on the docks of the company.
No doubt the abuses, in connection
with this system, have been growing
from bad TO worse, and itremaiEs now
to do away with it root and branch.
The mercantile interests Of the coun-
try demand not only this but that
the whole system Of customs shall be
dmpli6ed preparatory to the lnaugu-
ration Of free trade that will obviate
the necessity Of theiE existence.
