carefully guarded so as to prevent
dishonor to the Divine Country"
Although the Dutch had secured
some slight concessions, Japan, to all
intents and purposes, remained a her
nit nation, with ports closed to the
nations Of the earth.
On Novemb r is, 1851, during the
Administration of Miuard Fillmore,
Commander Matthew GaIbraith Perry
was ordered TO Washington to confer
with the Secretary Of the Navy. 1t
was understood that this conference
referred TO a contemplated mission to
the Far East. 1t was not, however.
until January Il, 1852, that the de-
talls OF this expedition were finally
arranged Perry was to take COM
mand OF the fleet. which was 10 be a
powerful one, and the steamship Mis-
sissippt was TO be the flagship.
At that lime more than 1900. 600
or American money was invested in the
whaling Enterprises in the seas of
China anu Japan. Commodore Perry

or the fIanits and peculiar characteris-
ties OF the Japanese people. by long

his predecessors and pre-eminentIy

was as it was afterwards proven. a
born diplomat and a great caDtain.
The instructions by which he was to
be guided, at the request of the Sec
retary Of the Navy. were prepared by
himself and received the approval of
the Secretary and the President.

Mr.. Webster Immediately communi-

Of the Navy indorsing Commodore Au-

organization and demonstration of an
imposing naval squadron which should
make its appearance in one of the ports
of Japan.
After all the efforts that had been
made, Commodore Aulick departed for
the East with only partially adequate
preparation. His expedition. like that
of his predecessor. Captain Roberts.

But the necessity for establishing

fact that ten thousand American sea

After some one gets killed or badly

that city council will take some ac-
ton in regard to fire lines in event of
CONGREGATIONS. Even should better
view of the fire be obtained from a
short distance away, the people now
do mot seem satisfied unless they are
up Just as close to the burning struc-
lures as they can possibly get. Take
for instance the blaze of last night.
Not a person except the fire fighters
should have been allowed In the block
from Monroe to Barney but hundreds
of spectators congested the street
and side walks. And it isn't a Ques-
ton of personal injury to people.

COAL MINERS
DIE FROM INJURIES RECEIVED IN
A DRAFT MINE YESTER.
DAY AFTERNOON.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, Dec. g.
At Horton on Cabin Greek, in this
county, about three o'clock yesterday
afternoon, seven coal miners were
suffoCated, five dying from their in.
jurieS. They were working in draft
mine wien the wooden stack of the
ventillating furnace caught fire and
was consumed.
The men outside busted themselves
with trying to put out the fire, and
failing in that with keeping it from
spreading to other structures, in the
immediate neighb0rho0d, paying no
heed to those in the mine, not sup.
posing them to be in danger.
A strong draft from the burning
stack poured the smoke directly into
the mouth of the mine. The miners
who we're in a more remote section of
the mine were unable to get out and
were overcome with smoke. There
were seven of these and but two
could be resuciatcd after being
brought out.
The Horton mine is the property of
the Cardiff Coal company which mas
eight or ten mines in the Cabin creek
field.
