i P 'The Honorable Flore n oe Cowper, " w
th? poor1 woman itisist?d1 on d?tsribing
herself; has been , condemned to penal
s er v Ilia ? e for. fire y ears. It sounds a
little strange to add that the offence lori
whloh she was COD vio ted and sen te coed
waa that of stealing two' BUVer spoons.
Her bame has been floating about in the
European and American press for some
time, and it has been associated'with
many reports, more or less vague,
touching her aristocratic ' origin and
many crime?. Now that the unhappy
creature has reached a point at whloh
she is ont off from eren the show of re
spectablb position, there is a sad interest
and a wholesome instruction in looking
baok at her career, and. marking the
fatal steps by whloh her descent bas been
made.
To understand the . extent of this wo?
man's fall, it is needful to know what ehe
wes and what she had been; 8be was,
during the past few years, one of that
class of educated female adventurers,
little known here, bot oommon abroad,
who correspond to the male chevalier
d'industrie. Her birth, in spite of the
protracted efforts of the London detect?
ives to ferret ont the truth, ls still
wrapped in mystery. Thora is no pos?
sible donbt about the identity of the
person who, in her childhood, waa
Mies Florence Cowper's Ostensible father.
Be still lives, and is, by occupation, a
florist. When Florence was twelve years
old, however, she was placed, ander.o
new name, at a fashionable boarding
school. Here she got the gloss or veuoei
of bearing, and the measure of attain
menta, of which it is hard to say whe?
ther they were subsequently most osefu!
or pernicious to her. lu a few yean
after she married a man of fortune, tin
matoh being probably brought aboul
through the. influence of the titled per
eon who caused her to be educated. ?Slit
had wealth now and sooial position
dbe was presented at court-adistinotiot
of recognized significance, and meaning
more with a subject than a foreiguer
and apparently had little to do but bas!
in the sun-shine of happiness. But
whilo thus cherished by prosperity, sh
was divorocd from her husband. Tin
reason need not here be dwelt upon
bnt, despite the oloud cast upon be
good namo, snob 's her fasoinatiui
i that she soon foun. nether rioh hus
band. Tho latter hos J.nco drunk him
self into an insane asylum. While livin|
with him, Florence acquired a taste fo
brandy, whioh has oluug to her ere
since, and to whioh much of her snbse
queut misery is to be attributed.
Her plnnge downward after this wai
rapid indeed. A year or two more sh
was in an asylum for fallen women. Sh
carno out, and, being hampered by debt
the trustees of her first hasband relieve?
ber, having been authorized in som
way so to do. Then followed a relaps
to the temporarily abandoned stron,
drink, and then a long catalogue of ic
genious extortions. Her beauty un
culture were still arailable, and she use
them unscrupulously to entrap and ovei
reach those whom she could got in he
toils. Among the number were seven
well-known persons, whose dread of put
Hoity, iu most cases, kopt them quio*
There were exceptions, aud these, b
oraft, and once or twioe by legal strati
gem, Florence contrived to baffle. Te
years had gone by at this sort uf tbiiif
and she was going fust down the hil
As she became JOSH fresh and more braze
and intemperate, the woman began I
steal. She first took jewels and watch?
! from the houses of her friends. As hi
standing even in the demi monde beean
lower, und money more source, even tl
smallest articles that could be pawut
were stolen by her. Finally, as wo hu'
seen, she has boon tried aud SHUtuiict
for the theft of two spoons. The pu
ishment seems harsh for such au uot, b
thuro wore two other indictments aguie
ber, and there is no question whutev
of her having porpetruted mauy Himil
offences. Brandy aud unbridled pt
sinus have brought tho unfortunate w
man to a pass bbaraeful to her hex,
uer education, and to her social ad vu
tages.
Florence Cowper's story is full of su
gestivc winning. It is ono of tho
cases that seem to end in calamity wi
thc certuiuty of a uiathemitticul dome
strutton. It is, so tu speak, ?yminetrh
in vice-bud going to worse in regu!
degroes, so that tho climax could bo pi

Tho regular gradations by which 1

riral of the Japanese embassy in ibis
country has rerired pub lie attention in
'WA*? WC* I^^Hwrfirw^ ia
aruiDg ia that, old country. In. his. in?
teresting letters from the East, Tttr.
James Brooks, M. a, of tho New York
Expr?s?, gives a decided preference to
! the Japanese over, ?h?'Chinese in eo^er
prise and intellectual activity. Those
Japanese who have visited this country
as students' would seem to justify the
opinion of Mr. Brooks. Notwithstand?
ing their race has excluded itself as far
as possible from other nations for centu?
ries, their yoong men who have come to
study in American ? colleges and schools
assimilate themselves readily to the ways
and customs of our young and go-ahead
people. Daring the administration of
President Fillmore, io 1852, the Japan?
ese expedition, under Commodore Mat?
thew C. Perry, was sent out, and nego?
tiated a treaty with that Government,
which opened the way to' the intercourse
which now subsists between Japan and
the United States. In 1867 and 1858, a
oew treaty was negotiated with the Ja?
panese Government on behalf of the
United States by Mr. Townsend Harris,
United States Consul-General for Japan,
by whioh additional privileges were
granted to American merchants. The
British, Russians and Dutch also made
favorable treaties with Japan.. Aa time
bas advanced, the mutual relations of
Japan and the onteide world have' be?
come more and more friendly, and a
nearer and closer intercourse bas seemed
desirable for all parties. The Japanese
have adopted readily the improvements
and mechanical appliances of their West
ern brethren. They have constructed c
navy, sud they use steam power as read!
ly as if they had invented it. Daily,
weekly and illustrated papers are pub
ashed there. One of them, an 'Illus
troted News, is said to be beautifully Ulm
truted, by photographs pasted on tb?
pages, of scenes in Japan, mountains
cities, residences, business places, steam
ers, dooks and wharves. It is only abou
four years sinoo newspapers have beal
published in Japan, but an observan
writer states that the Yokohama Dail\
News, a purely Japenese paper, whio?
has recently been started, is now meet
iug with the greatest success. It is ?
four-page sheet, about the size of th
Li'md on Illustrated Nev? or Harper'
