 twenty or thirty feet high. Inside oi the enclosure a miniature town IS built, with d theater, shop, bath-houses, tea gardens, cafes, restaurants, ladlng houses and "all the comforts of home." At the gate, which is strictly guarded by armed officers, female infants and ie- males of any age are received and taken care of at Government expense and nave home, such as it Is, from the cradle to the grave. The institution" is sattended by a physician, and the Japanese police insure perfect order. It Is even con tended that the manners oi the inmates serve as model to visitors.
 A hospital is attached to each institu- ton, where the yellow flag notifies the visitor of danger" Any one becoming | fascinated with an inmate can take her out of the institution by paying her debit to the Government, but neither the inmates nor any of their class are allowed in the public streets of Japan. | You may moralize as much as you please, but an evil that cannot be sup pressed is modified by police and sani- tary regulations.
 The rising generation serve the res taurant tables, bath-houses, dressing rooms and tea gardens, whilst the vet erans of the turf are consigned to the culinary, lavatory and hospital service.
 The gate is open day and night for the admission of visitors or inmates; but a strict register is kept ot all ingress and egress. The gate money IS very small only an it,ebu, about 40 cents; but visit ors are allowed to spend as much as they please in the enclosure for entertain ment, eating, drinking, theater, books,
 pictures, paintings and presents. The
 bathrooms are open for the inspection
 of visitors during the Japanese ablution.
 The Japanese never having heard ot the
 fall oi Eve are unconscious oi evil in the
 natural relation of the sexes; but eXpe'
 rienced residents and observers testify
 to the recttude of JapanesNyomen alter
 they assume the duties of mated life.
 LANDING AT TAMo.
 Our daimio fellow passenger, with the
 beautiful ladies, in vited us to land al
 ramo and partake of the hospitalitie'
 uI his native province, and as thls was 8
 Japanese town in it's primitive slmpllc
 ny we gladly availed ourselves ot tht
 opportunity and went ashore. We were
 soon surrounded by q rabble of the com mon people, eager to see foreigners iol
 the first time; but the officers appointed
 to take charge of us easily kept then
 away, so that we could have pathway
 through the middle of the street. II
 the rear of the village we entered wide
 avenue leading to the temple, and pass ing under the shade of grand old trees
 up several granite stairways on the hill
 side, under archways ol stone anG through a file of heather statuary II stone and bronze, we at last stood Tn th' presence of the august Buddha. Th' location Oi their temples Is worthy O all admiration, and the lavish expendl Lure ol labor and money upon thel erection evidences both devotion anC wealth. Alter viewing.the mysteries o the temple we were conducted to tn house ol entertainment connected wlll the establishment, as seems to be tn, custom in Japan. This was immedi
 ately over the bay, and from the ston balustrade overlooking the sea we cOulC have good view Of our ship in the har DOT. We left our shoes al the door anC walked upon the nice, clean mating Il
 hose.
 JAPANESE ENTERTAlNhENT.
 The entertainment was commences , by kind of fish soup and followedup b
 about dozen courses of fish, with GU | uf cake between each course. l man . aged all the tnny tribe pretty well untl | lt came to a dish of raw fish cut Il s strings, something like sliced eels, whicI I proved unpalatabe. It was liltIe diff l cult to use chOpsticks with grace and tn . position at Japanese dinner is not CT
 Llrely comfortable, as you have 10 squa 7 on your knees, keeping your extremltle 5 carefully out of sight, but having CT t dured this agonizing position until bot l legs were asleep, politeness finally su' 6 culnbed to suffering nature, and o stretched out my legs at the imminen : danger of kicking over my neighbor T dish of chow-chOw.
 s In the interval between dinner an t tea we were entertained by troop ( l singing girls, who accompanied an 1T
 strument like a dulcimer with som { songs, which were no doubt very mus - cal in Japanese ears. Afterwards tn $ dancing beauties treated us to some feat c of legs which were well adapted to tn T summer season and light costume l. Then we had tea and a few dishes ( n sweetmeats and more cake and littl r. more boisterous music, and then, as '- was past midnight, we rowed off to Ou
 ship and went to bed and dreamed Una
 we had undertaken to revenge JOna , and swallowed whale, and wer
 stranded on the coast of Japan, and tha thousands of Japanese urchins and sin! !, ing girls and dancing girls were laugh |, ing at our sonorous slumbers, and q t every snore cried out "There she blows F. The next day by sunrise we wer r again floating through the fairylike il d lands which gem the inland sea, and a j. day long we whirled and turned anon e the green islands, sometimes within h stone's throw of the bold shore an 0 sometimes only the blue outline of di s tant mountain was visible. The san t happy-looking villages, the same highl c cultivated terraces on the hillsldes, ti l. same temples in the groves. All da r. long we floated in this enchanted SCI }, and the sun went down and left purp ,f clouds to illumine the beautiful scener, s When the harvest moon, envious, seen s ngly of ths silvery sea, rose over mOul l. tain peak and shining rivulet, and te Is raced hillside and peaceful village an 0 tisherman's hut and the temples amid e the groves, and disturbing the stillne' g. of nature, the fire ship sped on over u $ slvery sea until near morning, when u Is land narrowed down to a stone's thro P, on each side and we passed through u n Straits of Semilosaca and out of the il B. land sea of Japan and from the mo It beautiful scene which earth, water ar ir sky present for the adoration of worshi
 pers of nature.
