JiNRtCk0HA IN JAPAN.


In the latter part Of the year 1859.
as my knowledge Of the Japanese Ian
guage was limited to few words.
employed when necessary the Rev. Mr.
GOble as my interpreter. Mrs. GOble
was confirmed invalid and could walk
about only a little. Happening to see
glsh bath chair for sale, l mentioned
the circumstance to Goble telling him
II would do for Mrs Goble. as few
! coolies could pull it along. purchased
1t and presented II to him. but the ma
chine was so heavy when il came to
drag it up hill few extra coolies had
to be employed.
Mr.. Goble was a bit Of carpenter
and possessed a fair share Of ingenuity.
so he took of the heavy leather-cOvered
frame and forward wheel with all its
attachments. and made two shafts so
that man might get inside them.
This reduced the weight about two
thirds. a light awning was then put
on the body. and that answered very
well. One man was sufficient to pull
1t along and two would pull It up
Heights hill. shortly after he placed
a front bar to connect the shafts to-
gether. A carpenter who had small
place at HOmoro did the work. and
that was the first 'Jinriky." The
Japanese were quite taken with the
outfit and they started in with a ven
geance, and now 1t Is not only the

The Fishery.

About 200, 900 herring reached Fish
town yesterday and this morning, and
the supply was, if anything, slightly
greater than the sluggish demand. The
minimum price from vessels was SO per
thousand. Shippers, however, sell at adj
vances on those prices by reason of cost
of wharfage, packing and other neces-
sary expenses. Shad were still scarce,
as we're also bunch fish. The gillers OF
this city are netting considerable herring
in Hunting creek and other nearby places
while those operating shad nets are ex-
periencing better luck. Fine specimens
of those fish were being hawked on the
streets this morning. They brought from
80 to SOC each.

War on Trading Stamps.

Alta meeting of the Petersburg City

order TO prohibit the business altogether:
At a special meeting of the council held
Yesterday afternoon to reconsider the
matter the tax was increased to 81, OOO
DER annum. Any person who shall en-
GAGE in the business without paying the
license tax shall be fined $500, and any
person who shall fail to pay any hnes
imposed on him for the violation OF the
ordinance shall be confined in jail not
less than one month nor more than three
months There is determined oppo'
sition on the part of number OF Alex
andria merchants to this modern ad-
iunct to business, and when this feature
was first introduced here, nearly de-
cade ago, attempts were made to sup
press it. Recently the Retail Mer-
chants Association of Alexandria placed
their stamp of disapproved upon it,
and petitions are now in the hands o.
the finance committee of the City
Council asking that the license tax be
made virtually prohibitive. The license
law will probably be reported to Council
