Tua MIKADO'S DESIRE TO AMEBIOANIZB JAPAN.-The imperial J ap??ese embassy, consisting of Twakuro, Prime Minister of Japan, coming as Envoy Extraordi? nary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the treaty powers; Kedo, a member of the Imperial Privy Gounoil and Assistant Ambassador; Akabo, Chief Minister ol Finance and Assistant Ambassador; Ito, Assistant Minister ot Public Works and Ambassador of the second rank, and Hama Gueki, Assistant Ministor of Fo? reign Affairs and Ambassador of the second rank, arrived at San Francisco on Monday lost, on the steamer America. The ambassadors havo with them twenty six attacb.ee?, sixteen secretaries and in? terpreters, sixteen servants and twenty three Japanese students, who are bound for New York. This is the most impor? tant embassy ever sent from Japan, and comes for the purpose of conferring wiib the Governments of the treaty powers in relation to the revision of the treaties demanded to be made before July of tho present year. Mr. Delong, the American Minister, will reach Washington with the embassy. Hon. Charles W. Brooks, Japanese Consul, also accompanies tbe embassy. Mrs. Delong, the wife of tbe American Minister, has in charge six Japanese girls of high rank, who are to be educated in this country. A late edict of the Mikado says: "My country is now undergoing a completo change from oid to new ideaR, which I sincerely desire. Therefore, I call on all tho wise and strong-minded to appear and become good guides to the Govern? ment. During tbs youth time, it is positively necessary to view foreign countries, so as to become enlightened as to new ideas of tho world, and both boys and girls, who will soon become men and women, should be allowed to go abroad, and my country will be bene? fited by this knowledge so acquired. Females have heretofore bad no position sooially, because it was considered they wore without understanding; but if edu? cated and intelligent, they should have due respect. " The embassy will remain in San Fran? cisco eight or ten days, and then come East. -? - Too MODEST.-The Washington Pa? triot ?&ya: "The deficiency bill of $27, 000, lately introduced in the House, to remedy the costs of the Ku Klux investi? gation in South Carolina and elsewhere, is entirely too modest. Buoh a bill, to bo honest and effective, ought to provide for tho lost ootton crop in uino Counties in Sooth Carolina; for damages for fulso imprisonment of hundreds of innocent and unoffending citizens, and for com? pensation for tho grief, terror and disor? ganization occasioned to at least ono poor County which WSB, confessedly by mistake, embraced iu tho President's proclamation of outlawry. Lot mem? bers soo to it and have thia bill properly amended." A new post office has been opened at Pnckott'B Forry, Luirona County-John G. Turnor, Postmaster. York World saya: "The Graud Dake At??I|,. ha*'i Obt^donod Wi ' projeoM buffalo hnnt in company with Piegan Phil and Spotted T>i?, and in obedience to the orders of the Czar, has repaired to St. Louis, whence, io company with Admiral Possie t, he expects on immediate recall in consequence of the disruption of our relations with Russia." A Berlin letter to the New York Tri? bune states that the German Government bas received a circular from Gortscha koff, relative to the recall of Gataoazy. The oironlar is said to have boen rendered necessary by the following oironm* stances: The American Minister, Kra? mer, during a dinner at the house of the German Minister, at Copenhagen, pro? posed the reading of n lotter from the American Government explanatory of the Catacazy affair, but tho Russian Minister refused to listen, and the Ger? man Minister said euch a letter must not be read in bia house. Subsequently Mr. Kramer went to each Minister in Copen? hagen, and read the letter to them indi? vidually. The same letter states that the Czar considers Alexis ns slighted by Pre? sident Grant in not returning his visit, and the Emperor will not allow Alexis to return to WuBuiugton. A special despatch tn the New York Evening Post, dated Washington, 16th instant, says: Inasmuch os dcuial has boon made of tho correctness of your correspondent's despatch of Saturday lust, nnuuuuciug that our Government contemplates tho f?nQjjincr nt Minister Ocrt?n Illili tliS 2C2 ponsion of all diplomatic intercourse with Russin, in consequence of Prince Gortsohnkoff's letter, it is proper to say that the despatch wus founded upon in? formation obtained from a very high officer. This gentleman now says, in a most positivo manner, that the first pur? pose of tho Administration was to moet Gortschukofl's letter by prompt action; but upon further consideration, it was decided to do nothing until the full text of the letter shall bo received from Mi? nister Curtin, and not to take snob aa important step upon newspaper reporte only. _ The United Kiata* navy is composed of 178 vessels, nominally mounting 1,426 guns. Of these 36 vessels, with an aggregate of 398 guns, are on foreign I stations or cruising; 8 carrying 103guns, j are used as school and practice ships; 7 with 90 gunn, are need as receiving ships, and 1 of 10 guns, is occupied as marine barracks at Pensacola, Fla. 17 unarmed vessels are stationed at various naval yards, and 26 vessels, with 206 guns, are repairing. 1 vessel of 8 guns is in winter quarters on Luke Erie.

Cn AK ACT KR.-We may judge a man character by what he loves-what pleases bim. If a person manifests delight low, sordid objects, tho vulgar song and debasing language, in the misfortunes of his fellows or animals, we may nt once determine the complexion of hi obaractor. On the contrary, if be loves purity, truth, modesty-if virtuous pur? suits engage his heart and draw out his affections-we are satisfied that he is an upright man. When wo Bee a young man fond of floe clothes and making n fop of himself, it is a sure sign that he thinks the world consists of outside show and ostentation, and he is certain to make an unstable man, without true affection or friendship, fond of change and excitement and wearying of those objects and pursuits, which, for a time, give him pleasure. A LITTLE TRUTH.-The New York Tribune, in some comments upon sundry sharp criticisms upon Rev. Mr. Hop worth's late renunciation of Unitarian? ism, which have been published by some of his old denominational associates, says: "We begin almost to despair of finding anything worthy to bo called Christian charity in all tho land. We are all blandly liberal until somebody treads upon our own theological corns, and then we at onoo discover that tho offender isn't much of a mau and a brother after all." It wont require any great amount of self-examination for any man to satisfy himself of tho truth of that Inst sentence. A Now York letter, of tho 16th inst., says: "Tho indifference with which the presence of tho small-pox among UH hus been viewed by the community at largo, will probably be disturbed by tho an? nouncement, to-day, that the pestilence is steadily on tho increase. Since noon, yesterday, thoro have been eighteen new oases and thrco deaths. The physicians, acting under tho instructions of tho Board of Health, continue to vaccinate all applicants gratis. During tho past woek, between 7,000 and 8,000 poisons were thus attended to. All the old maids in Mnino claim that they could have married tho present Governor of the State iu the days wheu ho was hard up and wore hickory shirts. j At Greenville, Pitt OooJDtjr, N. 0., ou Tuesday last, Mr. Pri tola ard mud a youuger brother attack od Mr; Robert Greene, a highly ree poo table gentleman' ot that place, for an alleged insult to the wife of Mr. Pritchard, an insult, we learn, that was not so intended. The Pritchards nsod sticks and pistols on Mr, Greene, who, acting in self-defence, fired upon both, killing the elder and married brother, and seriously wound? ing the other. A Cb ailee town (Mass.) photographer givea a striking mstanoe of feminine artifice. While arranging the instru? ment preparatory to taking a young lady's picture, he suddenly turned to give some directions to his fair customer, when, to his astonishment, he beheld her busily engaged stuffing her cheeks with paper, to fill out the meagre pro? portions which nature had so rudely neglected. David R. Dickey, of Randolph, Tip? ton County, Tenn., came to an end, Monday. He made a bet that ha could gat four bottles of brandy peaches and drink all the liquor, together with two tumblers of row whiskey. Ho drank the whiskey, and finished all the peaohes, dropping dead while holding the laBt pouch in his mouth. But he won the bet. NATIONA.1I BANK TN GBHENNILLE.-We are pleased'to learn, from tho Greenville Enterprise, that the citizens of that thriving young mountain oity are to be favored with bauking privil?ges. A meeting hv advertised for Wednesday next, tho 2-J tia of this month, inviting the presence of all the leading mer ohants, with a view to the organization of a national bauk. DESTRUCTION OP A CITY BY AN EABTII QUAKK.-The former reported destruc? tion of the oity of Oran, in the Argen? tine Republic, South America, by au earthquake, is confirmed. Nota house was left standing, but there was only one lifo lost. Humabuca was also damaged, and a volaano had developed itself in its neighborhood. A female editor on a Milwaukee paper aud an ostensibly masculine one on a La Crosse journal are making love to each other through the columns of their respective organs. He calls h*1?* "a charming yonng lady," and tel. I ow her words thrill through him Hu 3 a beautiful dream; and she reiterates. DWELLING: HOUSE BUBNED.-Wo re? gret to learn that Captain S. S. Wise had his dwelling house, about five miles from Blackville, destroyed by fire on Tuesday last. We have not heard the particu? lars, further than that the cause was ac? cidental.-Barnwell Sentinel. Tho Louisville Journal, referring to the fact that somebody is going to build a hotel in Rhode Island ninety-two feet long and sixty feet wide, expresses asto? nishment that the authorities should "permit anybody to put the State all under one roof in that way." Two sisters sleeping together in Cin? cinnati were awakened, when one whis? pered, "Oh, sister, I seo a spirit!" The phantom broke into a coarse "snigger," and the girls shrieked, but it got away with $48 and a set of furs. The Thames Tunnel, thought to bo saoh a novelty, was anticipated by ona under the Euphrates at Babylon, and the ancient Egyptians had a Suez Canal.
