Without irresistible steam assuredly this would never have been effected. Capt. Sherard Osborn, as bold and enterprising in the Gulf of Jeddo as in the Sea of Azoff, pushed up his three smail steamers almost under the wails of the Japanese capital, and the Court having meanwhile beard of certain enterprises in the river Peiho, he spel! was broken, and Lord Elgin, with his usual skill and good fortune, stepping in, a treaty throwing open five ports of the empire was duly negotatod, signed, sealed and delivered. In this it is stipulated that the export duties are not toexceed five per cent, por the import 20 per cebt—the staples of cottons and woellenus to be subject to a still lower impost. Now, what do we know of this empire with which we have eptered into there commercial relations? Not much, and the accounts just sent to us from the spot do not much improve our knowledge. From these we warn our readers that some fifty per cent ought to be acted, as being only creations of the imagi- naton, while the remainder will be tound in Kampfer, Whose travels were translated into English and pub: lished under the direction of Sir Hans Sioane, 130 years ago. One sample of these creations of the fancy will suflice. Koempfer had reported that the Japanese « were very nice in keeping themselves, their clothes and houses clean and neat.” The authors of the recent accounts, fresh from the dirt and ill odors of China, improve on this simple statement, by assuring us that the ladies of Japan are so addicted to the bath that they take it in tubs in the public streets—* when unadorned adorned the most.’? But let us see (thanking our recent travellers for re- ing Our memorics) what we can gather for our 18 respecting Japan from old Kempfer, with the small adc itions to bis knowledge by his successers, the Swedish Thunberg, tie Russian Golownin, the German Sicbold, and the Anglo-American Perry.

Y { Japan bas been usually reckoned at which makes it nearly the same as our own, and cqual to that of an average of the eighteen provin of China. It is great, however, for a country of whi the mountains far exceed the plains and valleys, and its density is attested by the great and acknowledged poverty of the mass of the people, who, to livewt all, have to hive on the meanest food, and who, for two whole centuries, have not enjoyed the relief of emigration, sanese, like the Hindoos, and wholly unlike the who bave no such senseless and mischievous in- Suitution, are divided into hereditary castes. Of these there are eight. The merchants form the sixth caste, skilled artisans the seventh, and the peasantry the eighth, which includes day laborers, tillers of the soil, fishermen and sailors—in a word, the mass of the pcople, all of whom are in reality mere serfs. All this is evidence of barbariem, or of an inferior grade of civilization, But besice the eight castes, there is, as with the Hindoos, a class of outcasts, that must dwell in the outskirts of the towns and villages, and who are considered so impure that they are forbidden to enter any decent house. From these are selected the jailors, from which we can ima. gine the condition of the jails, and the public execution- ers, whose services are in ag much request as in any coun, —_ Ms sun. jut the Japanese, poor, despised and oppressed, are not- withstanding a lively, inquisitive, laborious, and,'to" some extent, even an ingenious people.

On the contrary, they virtually admit their own inferiority, when we tind them imitating the Chinese in lauguage and Jaws; and while having « written charac ter and a literature of their own, they servilely imitate “hose of China.

This was on the 19th of June, but on the 23d Mr. Yates wrote to the committee, questioning their right to entertain the matter at all, ‘* The article,’’ he said, “ may be in exceedingly bad taste, but the committee is nota committee of taste.’ The com- mittee held a special meeting on the 26th, and came to a decision expressed in certain resolutions. They resolved that it was competent to them to entertain Mr, Thacke- ray’s complaint, that the complaint itself was well ground. ed, and that the practice of publishing such articles, baing reflections by one member of the club against any other, would be fatal to the comfort of the club, and intolerable ina society of gentlemen. ‘The committe that Mr. Yates was bound to make ‘an ample apology,” or retire from the club. Mr. Yates declined either to retire or to apologise, and stated he would appeal to ageneral meet- ing on two questions—first, whether the case between Mr. Thackeray and himself was such a case as should be sub- mitted to the committee at all; and secondly, “Whether Mr. Thackeray has any right to call for an apology from. me when he has so very arrogantly and coarsely address. ed me.” The result was that Mr. Yates’ subscription was the club. He has therefore instituted an action against the committee for trespass, in refusing to allow him to enter the club, and this will raise the important question, as af- fectung the rights of members generally, whether the club bad the right to expel Mr. Yates or not. It is understood that there will be a large say & legal talent on both sides, and the trial, both from the nature of the issue and the position of the parties, will possess great interest. The Attorney General has been retained for the committee of the Garrick Club, Mr, Edwin James, Q. C., is to lead ‘the case on behalf of the plaintiff, Mr. und Yates, ‘The Slave Trade in the South Carolina Senate, CuanLestox, Noy. 26, 1858. The interest felt in the case of the slaver Echo, about to be tried in the Federal Court in this district, has made itself manifest thus early in the Senate of the State, in the following reselutious, introduced into that body by Sena- tor Mazyck:— | no grant of power to regulate, preventor commerce | Among foreign nations; and therefore all acts of Congress pur porting to prohibit or interfere with the slave between foreign countries are unconstitutional, force or effect. Resolved, That the act of Congress declaring the slave trade to be piracy, if be understood as allirming that ihe nature of things and in the sense of the constitution, ailirms what is not true; and inasmuch as it purports and inteads to convert into piracy What is not so in the nature of things, and in the sense of the constitution, the said act is uacoustituuoual, null and void. 5 ‘These resolutions coming up for debate under the spe cial order, Senator Mazycx said — Mr. President—Of the powers delegated by the con- stitution to the government of the United States, thore are but three by which the right to prohibit any descrip. tion of trade can be inferred. One is the power given to Congress to regulate commerce with foreign 5 an. other is the power to punish piracy and other offences com. matted on the high seas; and the third is that provision of the constitution which, as it relates in express terms ex- clusively to the importation of slaves into the United ‘States, bas no application to the maiter now before us. The power of the government of the United States to de- fine piracy, and to punish it as a felony, I will notice when I consider the second resolution, and I will ow come at once, Mr. President, to the question of the pot er of Congress to regulate commerce with foreign mations. The plain interpretation of the constitution wo me to be the delegation to the government of United States of the power to regulate the commerce between the United Stales and foreign nations. If, therefore, we assume that the power to regulate includes the probibit, it would confer on the government the power to prohibit the slave trade between the United States and a foreign country. But the resolutions introduced into this body do not eay that it is unconstitutional to prohibit by acts of the general government the slave trade between our own States and any other nation. They only assert the fact that it is not constitutional nor within the pro- vince of Congress to prohibit that traific between two foreign countries. No commentator on the constitution of the United States, sofur as I have discovered, seems to have taken up the question as to how far the power con ferred on our government to regulate commerce between States and & foreign vation incindes the rigbt to in- terfere in the commerce carried on between two other countries, distinct from our own. Justice Story, however, does touch indirectly on tuis feature of the question, when, after stating his reasons to show that the power to regulate commerce included navigation, he sums up ing — This power the constitution extends to foreign nations, with the Indian tribes. , it is universally admitted Uhat the words comprehend very species of commercial intercourse.

It is the coustivutionality of such act# alone that is denied in the resolutions Vefore the Senate. Mr. President, in my humble judgment, it i# a grave question, and one that i.” open t serious doubts, whether the power to regulate commerce inclades the power to probibit any branch of trade whatever. Bot that is a point that is left undisturbed by these resola- sons. which simply declare that the power to regulate merce does not extend tw commerce between two reign nations, and therefore cannot inelude the probibi- tion of the slave trase between foreica nations.

When the constitation of these States was adopted. tho slave trade was as legiti- mate as the trade in wool, in coffee, or in tobacco. It wi a legitimate and an innocent trade, recognized as such a the time by all men; and if the power delegated to Con gress to regniate commerce js to be interpreted into the make it aa act of piracy now to carry on that par. trade between any countries whatever, then must Congress surely have the same right, at its option, tomake the trade in cotfee, wool or tobacco an act of piracy like- \ wise. When the constitution was adopted sit was well uu- | derstood what constituted the crime of piracy. It was robbery on the high seas. The constitution, it is true, conferred on Congress the power to define pirac There must be, doubtless, sume certain rul or line, for the purposes ‘of legal prosecution, to distinguish what i ‘Yobbery on the bigh seas; | and it wae proper th | right to | come within the definition of that offence. Bat the power | to define is one thing—the power to -reate another. Can 1 it be imagined or pretended that under the power to de fine piracy it was jatended to confor on the government the power to declare any act an act of piracy? KM Con | gress really possessed t@e power to inake the slave trade | between Arica and Coba piracy, it would have the same power to make the same trade piracy when cartied on be- | tween Louisiana and Virginia, by way of the sen. If it has the right to declare it an act of piracy to convey slaves between the African aud Cyban coasts, what is to deprive it of a similar right in relation to the transport of slaves between the Chesapeake hay and the Mississippi? 1 am ntterly at a jose to perceive bow any person can point out adietinetion between the two cages. And not oniy does | xercise of thie power imply the right to e the trade n cartied on by sea betwoon the States, bat it implies also the right to de im cotton an act of piracy, whenever 8 put into a ship in our ports and carried over jo any other port in the world. Let it mind, wir, that we hare a right to consi cr the lave trade as ionocent afd legitimate other trade, Tt was more so when the constitu of these States was adopted than it is now. If we concede this, and also admit that Congress bas the power to de clare thie innocent and legitimate trade piracy, then must we yield to Congress an unlimited power—an absolute des yotiem—over the whole commerce of the hen most we hold that as soon as acitizen steps into a ship and sails 8, he is at the mercy of a Congress that can at its will convert any act of his into the crime of piracy, and make a felon of him.

KOBERT OWEN, THE SOCIALIST REFORMER. The socialists of the Old World and their imitators in tho United States hove lost by the death of Robert Owen— the news of which was brought by the Arago on Monday— their great apostle, friend and counsellor. For the last half century Mr. Owen was at the bead of the socialistic and reformatory movewent in Great Britain, and may be said to have died in preaching that gospel, having attain- ed to the patriarchal age «f cighty-cight years. Robert Owen was a native of the principality of Wales— that region of ancient bards and modern miners—which has given to the rest of the world, iu all ages, so many men of distinction, It is told of him, as an illustration of the early developement of his inteilect, that at the age of seven years, when most other boys are acquiring the mere rudiments of education, he held the post of usher in a school in his native town, and that in two years after- wards he was under-master of the same. He must haye got through his school education at a very early period of bis life, for in his tenth year he was assistant ina grocery and dry goods store. He fousd himself in London in his fifteenth year, and in two years afterwards had the offer of a lucrative partnership in the business house with which he was connected there, but which offer he declined. Fortune favored him—or perhaps we ought to say that his industry and buainoss abilities were rewarded—for at the early age of eighteen Le found imself a partner ina cotton spinning factory, in which 1 eball now proceed, Mr. President, tw briety | us, which denies | woeks previous to his death forty men were employed, and where Arkwright’s ma. chinery was first introduced, All this time it is not to be supposed that Robert Owen lost sight of the one great object of his existence, which was the re-organization of society on a new basis. His rther resolved | mind bad early become imbued with that idea over which so many philosophers in ail ages have dreamed, and on which 60 many fine minds and large fortunes have been wrecked. He thought of a social regeneration in which there should be no want, no crime and no civi! distinc. tions. Liberty, equality and fraternity were to him as to the French socialists the keynotes of the harmonia! order that was to be estabiished. It was to carry returned, and it was intimated tohim that he was expelled | out that cherished scheme that he applied hin@seif to tle amassing of Wealth in business pursuits. Having sold the Charlton Mills, near Manchester, he and his partners took the Lanark Mills, m Scotland, which had been commenced in 1774 by Sir R. Arkwright and David Dale. He married Dale’s daughter, and one of the children of that marriage ig our late Minister to Najfes and former representative in| Congress {com Indiana, Ko- bert Dale Owen. Lanark Mills had been celebrated even atthattime, They had attached to # a farm of 150 acres, and a colony numbering come two thousand souls, Here he had a splendid opportunity of carrying out his sociai experiment, and for some time his efforts in that line, as wellas in his business, were crowned with remarkible success. tury that he con- ducted this establishment, its fame drow visiters from. ail quarters of te earth; and some of the most eminent men of that day—in rank, in letters, in war and in political science—visited New Lauark, to witness and adinire the results of Dale’s system of goverument, which consisted simply in weil directed kinduess. And yet the business of the concern did not seem to be neglected, for in ten years its profits, exclusive of an annual dividend of five per Resolved, That the constitution of the United States contains | Cent, amounted to $300,000. His partners, however, were not Fatisfied with this, and tried to ridicule bim out of his philanthropic notions, which they considered as very expensive; but he bought out theif shares for $420,000 aud have no rightful | and admitted a new set of partners. These proved to be as great grumblers as the former, and the establishment itis piracy in | Was brought to the hammer in’ four ycars after they joined. Owen purchaged it for $570,000, altbough the profits for the four years had reached $000,000. He had Jess difficulty with his new partners, who hi ned to be ‘Men chiming in with his own ideas, and who let him have evérything bis own wgy, He then devoted himself in earnest to the developement of his fehome of regenera- tion; but, like all other similar attempts in every country, it signally failed. But Owen was not disheartened. Philosophers never are. He eubaequently tried to estab- lish a new “Moral Commuuity,”’ and after that, what he called a‘‘Labor Exchange Bazaar,” but neither experi ment proved successful, Mr. Owen wrote a great deal, and lectured very con- siderably on this one prominent theme ef his Ife; and, although he was destined to see ail bis reformatory pro jects fail, one after another, yet it mart not be supposed that his labe ave not had some effect on the general mind of the age. One incident which he related to us when he was in this country went to prove the estimation in which he was held by some of the great actors on the world’s ‘stage. lt was this: During the sittings of tho celebrated Congress of Vienna, in 1815, Owen proceeded to that capital for the purpose of submitting his views and political theories on the re-organization of Europe. These views were exposed in two commuaications which he piaced in the bands of Prince Metternich. Of course he never knew whether his papers were with a moment's consideration in the Congress; and it is very likely they were not. But some ten or fifteen years after- wards he was again in Vienna, and, calling on Prince Metternich, he reminded him of’ his two commu- nications. The Prince recollected them immediately, and summoning a secretary he directed him to go to @ certain pigeon hole in bis study, and bring him the papers which he would find there. ne rs were the identical communications which placed in his bands at the time of the Congress He ured to relate this as an illustration o Prince Metternich'’s systematic style of coaducting busi ness, bot we think the incident was alse highly compii- mentary to himself. Mr. Owen was several times in this country, and iden tied bimeelf with the infidel and socialistic movements of the Fanny Wright schoo! of reformers. He was, however, really sincere in bis views and efforts, and of a thoroughly philanthropic turn of mind. His last visit here was some ten or twelve years since. He had been also in Mexico, on the invitation of the Minister from that republic to Eng. land, and bad an intention of establishing a coiony ther» to be governed om his own peculiar principles; but that in tention was never carried out, although he had the offer of fa district of one hundred and fifty miles in breadth, ex tending from the Paeitic to the Gulf, and including what is pow the State of Californi: Robert Owen's views oa the subject of religion under went a change some few years since, Up to that tine he bad becn a professed infidel, if not om atheist. He was, however J, throngh curiosity, and throngh learn ing that Lord Rrovghare and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton and other eminent men had set the example, to atteod the | sittings of a spiritualist medium in Queen Anne street, in London. ‘This lacy, wao te now a resident of Boston, was the first to exhibit the seanifestations of spiritualiem in sh London, and her svirers ettracted much attention time, Owen sat there nightafter night, er trum) on duty, and went away marvelling at the new manifeststions.” From that time he became a believer in a future state of existence, and we presume he died a be- Hever. For the’ last few Yours he edited and published a sorialistic and spiritualistic weekly patnyhiet, called the Mil omivin.
