It seems quite clear that if this is the view the English preasis going to take of this important contest, involving the courage, endurance, strength of muscle aud ca- pacity to receive punishment of the two na- tions, and if the fight is not to be renewed, the international complications are more compli- cated than ever, and further from a satisfactory settlement. The San Juan boundary difficulty may yet be arranged by diplomatic manwuvres without an appeal to arms; but this difficulty as to which country has the toughest muscle, and which champion can stand the hardest thrashing without giving in, is more knotty question to solve, Itis not long ago since the London Times deplored the fact that the youth of America were falling off in physical strength and de- velopement; perhaps the possessor of the Eng- lish belt can dissolve that illusion now, after his recent experience; certain it fs, that how- ever demoraiizing may be the example of the prize ring in many respects, it has had the effect of stimulating the young men of this coun- try to practise the science of boxing, not only as an amusement, but as a matter of self-de- fence. So frequent have pugilistic encounters become among the rowdy class that almost us and the widely separated shores of the greater continent are the open highways of commerce and international intercourse. No vast mountains, or broad rivers, or wide deserts, interrupt the tide of human transit on them. No engineering difficulties there have to be surmounted. Our ships plow the watery plain eastward or westward with like facility. There is no natural barrier be- tween us and either people. The natural re- sult of this geographical position is, that our friendly relations are becoming equally as im- portant to Japan as they are to England. One of the duties of our position is to bring the two oceans, which are the scenes of great commer- cial developements, into easy communication with each other. We have builtthe Panama railway; we are striving to open routes across the isthmus of Chiriqui, Nicaragua and Tehuantepec; we are building telegraphs and railroads across the continent; and we are pre- paring in @ thoneand ways to unite the traffic of the Atlantic and Pacific. As these new bonds develope themselves the geographical fact of our central position in the world will become more and more practically evident.

Between the Revolutionary epoch, however, and the election which resalt- ed in the elevation of John Quincy Adams te the Presideacy, great changes had taken place— the infant republic had extended its territory and quadrupled its population. The United States had taken the position of a first class Power. The public men of the day were calied upon to handle great questions of trade, finance, the currency and public credit.

Tax Destination oF THE Jaranes& Expassy.— Tt bas been decided to convey the Japanese Embassy direct to Washington, instead of land- ing them in New York, it being considered more fitting, in view of the importance of their visit, that they should be first presented to the President before visiting any other part of the country. There is very little doubt, however, that they will come to New York during their stay— | u which, we believe, they design sball be short— in order to view the great metropolis and com- mercial centre of the republic, which can alone present to them an index to the vastness and importance of the country with which the Em- peror of Japan has entered into close commer. cial relations. The Common Council have made extensive preparations to receive the Ambassa dors on their arrival bere, and we would sug- gest to them, now that the arrangements have been changed, that they should send a committee of three or four of their number to Washington to see how Capt. Dupont and the other naval officers there receive the distinguished visiters, and learn how to treat them when they come to New York, #0 as to save this great commer. cial metropolis from being disgraced by that display of vulgar ostentation with which the guests of the city are usually received by our corporate officials. It bas been eupposed that this is the first em- bossy which Japan has ever sent to « foreign government; but we believe that the Japanese government on one other occasion accredited prize ring or the rowdy element of the coun- try, carrying under their broadcloth well de- veloped muscles, which are capable of doing good service in case of necessity; and that a strong arm and some acience in boxing are far more manly weapons of defence than the knife, the pistol or the slung-shot who ean doubt? The decadence of these latter weapons must necessarily follow the cultivation of the muscu- lar developement in our youth, something which we conceive is greatly to be commend- ed. These weapons will still of course be used by the habitués of the prize ring and other rowdies, who, although possessing immense muscular power and skill, are almost invariably cowards, and, being equally matched in muscle, resort to deadlier weapons in their contests with others; but such weapons will be confined to the localities in which these rewdies alone congregate, and we trust will not long be found to prevail in the community to the same extent as heretofore. Manly exercises of all kinds have always prevailed in England, and thus she has reared a class of men almost unequalled in physical power, and has trained, perhaps, some of the best soldiers in the world; but with the in- cressing taste for athletie sports in this country, #0 prevalent for the last two or three years—crieketing, base ball, the regulated ex- ercises of the gymnasium and the science of boxing—we shall soon be able to show, with «all theee auxiliaries, combined with the ad vantages of a mixed race, embracing the finest physical elements in the world,« hardy gene- ration of men without an equal on the face of the globe. * We preeume that the great international contest of muscle may be considered finished by the drawn battle at Farnborough; for it is opinions k i Lite Li u 1 Ai and served for atime.
