From Tax $tax’s Traveling Commissioner. Yoxouama, July 10, 1888. My fellow-passengers by the Beigic are now on thelr homeward voyage in her. They have in- spected Yokohama and TokyO; they nave traveled iu the Inverior; they have “done” Nikko in the north and KyOt6 in the south; they have salled over the Inland Sea; they have become experts in Japanese antiquities; they are informed upon Japanese politics; trom tea-house to temple and from the Daibutsu to Fujiyama nothing bas es eaped their scrutiny. At last they are gazing again over the biue Pacific, but how differently from a few short weeks ago! ‘Then all was eager anticipation; now there is the proud satiety of rounded experience and fullness of knowledge. Japan, the unknown, the immemorial, the mag- netic, the ardently desired, the wonderlana 01 the World, has been encompassed by a summer's trip, 4 is Deack-pencilied in their Murray, it has become the accomplished fact, the squeezed orange. ‘Happy fellow-passengers!

It Was impossible to hold a conversation of interest on any other, subject at the capital at that time. ‘The whole civilized worid had its eyes centered on the capital of the German empire, Just as it 18 to- day, and the Ei ing world Was particu- larly interested in the attitude of the crown prince ppg present emperor—toward the peopie of Great WHY HE HATES THE ENGLISH. “Hate scarcely expresses his sentiments,” sald the captain with a shrug. “It is curious, in all the delving and investigating of the newspaper Correspoudents that the reai reason has never Deen puouished of tue crown prince's antipatiy Loward English. of a pecullarly revengeful Fesentiul disposition, and nis dislike for his moun €r's people tates back from the very momentof his bir nen it was learned that the Empress Victoria was about to give birth to a child and to the prooable heir to the throne of the German em- pire, tere was a great deal of excivement in Ber. in.” The empress, as you probably koow, 18 & Woman of very strong wind.
