10 try JAPAN. The Civil War—The Island of Yesso—Sir Harry Parkes—The Kiote Troublee—Yesso Declared a Republic—The Neutrality Procla- matione—Fall Particulars of the Loes of the ¥ ‘ Yoxouama, March 5, 1869, Peace reigns in Japan. So said the Mikado some three months ago, and s0 declared the foreign ministers on the 9th of February, On that day were formally revoked the neutrality proclamations issued by the respective ministers on the 18th of February, 1868, But peace can scarcely be said to exist. The United States Minister states in his notification of February 9, A. C.:— Having been officially informed of the cessation of the state of war formerly existing in Japan, and having satietied my- welf as to the non-existence of erents in this country, I hereby give notice to American citizens that the notidcation Of neutrality issued by me at Hiogo on the isth of February, 1868, ia withdrawn. Yet the Minister knows and everybody else in Ja- pan knows that Ennomotto, with avout 5,000 of the Kerais of Tokugawas, holds possession of the island of Yesso, including the port of Hakodadi, against the will of the Mikado; that the Mikado’s govern- ment 1s making extensive preparations to dispossess Ennomotto, and that he and his followers are mak- ing every preparation to resist. It is well known that Ennomotto has declared the island of Yesso a republic, and has officisily announced ‘its indepen- dence to the various consuls, who recognize no other authority but Enuomotto. Why, then, this cry of “Peace, peace,’ when there is no peace? I -statea im my last letter that Sir Harry Parkes, the English Minister, who, although by no means a Talley- yand in diplomatic craft, was still so far superior to his confréres as to be able to influence the whole of them, had forestalled the combined action of the different ministers by ts- suing a proclamation forbidding English subjects from giving aid to the ‘rebels’ at Yesso. Had Sir Harry had bis way the neutrality proclamations “would have been recalled months ago; but he has at last succeeded in gaining his point, and the coun- try is declared to be at peace. Nor is the occupa tion of Yesso by the disaffected the only circum. stance that gives the lie to these peace proclama- tions. Within the last few days we have rumors (and although only rumors, there are too many reasons for their probability to entirely ignore them) that, if true, will probably plunge the whole country again into war. These reports are to the effect that Satsuma on one side, and Chosin ana Hosokawa on ‘the other, have quarrelied, and that hostilities have actually commenced, A steamer which arrived here on the 27th from Hiogo brought the intelligence that a fight haa taken Place at Kioto; that some portions of the city had been iired, the flames reaching to the Mikado’s palace, who had to leave for Osaca. That such a quarrel is mot only possible but highly probable may be assumed from the fact that it is well known that dis- ments have occurred between the great princes who took part on tne Mikado’s side during the late ‘War, on account of the division of the spoils and the arrogant assumption of the Satsuma. Perhaps be- fore this mail closes we shall receive intelligence corroborating this report. In my opinion peace is a Jong way from being @ permanent dweiler in Japan. Until some wise, powerful man assumes the reins, who can crush the power of the diferent daimios and form a consolidated gov- ernment, permanent peace is far distant. believe Stotsbashi appreciated this truth, and even attempted to bring about that result But he failed because he tried too much. He was not con- eiliatory enough. Had he made friends with all the aimios save one, used every means to crush that one, and, having succeeded in that,turned his atten- ton to another daimio he would have commenced a work that might have resulied in the desired effect. But he started with too many enemies at one time, and instead of conciliatiug some in order to husband his strength for the rest their combined power crashed him. The significant fact that Ennomotio has declared Yesso a aes shows that sume of she daimios aiso entertain no very high regard for the feudal power. But Ennomotto is not the man, Jam afraid, to carry out any very great reform. He - Beers to lack that Very requisite qualification go ne- to ail leaders and reformers—the knowledge When to strike. Nevertheless, if another general War does occur, it will so weaken the differeut Gaimios that it will at least faciiitave any movement ‘that may have for its desired eifect the disarming of the daimios. ‘The immediate result of the withdrawal of the meutrality prociamations was CF gyre the hand- Ing over of the Stonewall. , however, has not yet been effected, as that vessel still fies the Amen- can flag. ‘The American Minister notified the Japan- ese authorities that he was ready to hand her over on their paving. down the necessary amount of stamps, which Will amount now to about $20,000, ‘The Japan have expressed their readiness to re- ceive her, but so far the transfer has not been effected, owing probably to the advent of the Japan- ese new year, the celebration of which lasts fourteen days. Besides, the Japanese never do anything in a arry. in my letter dated September 27 it was my melan- choly duty w inform you of a serious accident that had occurred to the Pacific Mall steamship Her- 4mann While on @ cruise in the northern part of Japan. In this letter, as achronicier of events, I must speak of her for the last time, for 1 have to re- her total wreck. The Hermann was chartered yy the Japanese to take some troops from Jeddo to Aframori Bay, a place in the vicimity of Hakodadi and used by the government as a rendezvous for troops for the intended operations against Yesso. When she left Yokohama for Jeddo on the 19th ult, she was in charge of Captain Harvey, For reasons best Known to the general agent of the company here Captain Harvey was removed at Jeddo, and when the vessel reached Yokohama Mr. Newell, formeriy chief officer of the New York, was in command, He left Yokohama at moon on the 13th» ult, with from 350 to 400 Japanese passengers on board, and acrew of eighty, oficers and men, all told. About haif-past five o'clock P. M. they bad reached abuut six miles east from Cape King. (Cape King is+ twenty-three mules from Yokohama.) ‘The wind was north-north- ast and the vessel was Kept along, as the captain thought, about five miles from shore, at the rate of seven knots an hour, steering from northeast to east by north-half-nortn. The night was exceedingly ark and scarcely anything couid be seen. At about mine o'clock P. M. the captain, who was on deck, aft, examining the compass, was informed that there were breakers ahead and on the port bow, He immediately gave the order to port helm, but almost before the vessel had time to answer, she struck. The first biow must have knocked her bot- tom almost clean out, for immediately thereafter the chief engineer went down to the fire room and found four inches of water on the floor, and the fireroom floor is four feet above the keelson. The vessel began to break up almost im- mediately. Three of the ship's boats were washed away from the davits, into which some of the frightened passengers jumped, Some never reached ‘the boats, and those that did were capsized. The over three boats were then lowered and imme- diately filled with crew aud passengers. Two of these swamped in afew seconds after leaving the ship; the other one, steered py the second mate, reached tand in safety. From the chief engineer, Michael Quin, late of the United States navy, who ‘Was in this last mentioned boat, I learned that after puiling through two lines of breakers they reached & smak cove, which, however, became rapidly choked up with the pieces of the breaking ship. ‘The captain remained ou the wreck ali night, to- her with about 100 passengers and the first mate. e latter and several passengers were swept away by the sea, and the captain, who r ed on the wheelhouse, the only part of the ship above water, was almost frozen to death. The following morning at daylight, the weather having moderated, the boat that nad the previous night got ashore being the only surviving one, put off with some Japanese fan- dng boats to tie Wreck, Which Was only about three- quarters of a mile from land. At this time nothing ‘Was visible above the water but the wheelhouses and the mainmast, the foremast having gone en- rely with the forward part of the slip. Many of the unfortunate men were found foaung abou clinging w portions of the wreck which ha become detached; others were holding fast tw the rigging of the mammast. These were ail taken ashore, and on mustering It was found that the Mrat officer, Mr. Chase, a water tender named White apd about 280 Japanese passengers and crew were massing. The rescued people attempted to mire a Dost from the natives to take them to Yokohama, but failed; consequently they walked into town, some wixty miles, by land, receiving on their route every ee Kindness from the natives.

SANDWICH ISLANDS. Decrease of Steam Communication—Decline ef Trade—Royal Businese—Annexation— Emigration. Hono.vuuv, March 23, 1869, Owing to the withdrawal of one of the mall steamers it is now nearly a month since my last Was penned. We have now but one steamer run- ning between this port and San Franctaco, and it 1 rumored that the remaining steamer may be with- drawn. I doubt much if a line plying directly be- tween this port and San Francisco can be made to Pay, and for that reason it is extremely problem- atical if we shall have regular steam com- munication, except the Japan and China steamers or the proposed Australian steamers determine to make this a way port. The Japan and China steamers having obtained aid from Con- gress to remove the only obstacle in the way of mak- ing Brooks Island a depot, we cannot look for auy help from that quarter, and as the Australian line is merely talked of we have nothing tangible to hang a hope on in that quarter, So, take it all in all, our chances for regular steam communication are grow- bis beautifully less as time rolls on. wa jusiness has dwindled down to next to nothing. Since my leat no sale of any importance has taken Place, tailers are complaining at the complete Stagnation in business, Jobbers and wholesale deal- ers feel it in turn, and grumbling is the order of the day. Should either of the importing houses attempt to force the collection of notes in their hands the re- sult would be ruinous, and for that reason they seem to have come to an understanding to ease up on collections, The only parties who seem to be doing a paying business are the King, his Ministers and the two or three houses who are favored with their patronage. His Majesty 18 doing a thriving business; nothing is too large nor too small for hin to go into—the pur- chase of hundreds of acres of land, or the contract to supply a hospital with the staple article of fooa, poi, or running a fifty ton coaster;in fact, anything that will pay. Having unusual facilities for carry- ing on his various ventures they cannot but pay. From his Cabinet to the convict in the chain gang, all are made useful. All classes of oificyais are sub- servient to his will. Like his imperial brother of France, or royad sister of England, he has a chamber- jain attached to his court, but, unlike them, he uses his chamberlain asa factor or agent in all his little business transactions. This disposition to trade has been overlooked by traders and merchants untal the busiuess seems to be all moving wwards his net, when complaints loud and deep are uttered. The only gleam of comfort that can be drawn from his present grasping, hoarding policy is that he may possibly be preparing for overcares for annexation to the United States. Another item which tends largely to depress the minds of residents of this little kingdom 1s that not only are bron bee J to lose the Reciprocity Treaty, but the addition of another half cent a pound duty on sugars is talked of in the United States. Every month of hard times makes additiuns to the already formidable annexation party existing here. The chief obstacle in the way of annexationists hereto- fore has been the argument which has been brought to bear upon the masses of his Majesty’s sabioces, wit:—That their condition would be worse than that of the Indian; that their lands would be taken from them and a war of extermination waged with them. This argument is fast losing force. His Majesty 18 doing much to weaken the argument. If he desires @ piece of land owned by a native he brings all his forces to bear on the owner, and, however tenacious he may be, his hoid is gradually relaxed and he sur- renders the land for @ merely nominal sum, until now a native it is merely a question of who shall The White Pine excitement has reached these islands, and if the people adnere to their expressed determination a large amount of capital will leave these islands Jor investment in stock or real estate in and about San Francisco.

The west coast of the United States offers every inducement for parties to leave these islands, wile no one can hope a lets his condition by immigrating to these lands. A rumor prevails that the Reformed Catholic church in this city nas had some diticulty with the Dean placed here by Bishop Staley, A petition, it 1s said, has been signed by most of the church and forwarded to Engiand, requesting thava rector and clerk of the Low Church be sent here, and promising ae will be well supported, without aid from the 100 . TRE BILLIARD TOURNAMENT. In the Afterneon Snyder Beats Rhines—In the Evening Foster Beate D: Is. ‘The diamond cue still haunts the dreams of all who delight in billiards. That is not the worst of it; it keeps from their dreams until the near approach of morning ail those so fortunate or unfortunate as to live in this great city, or wakes atan uuwonted hour all those in distant cities dependent upon owlish telegrams for tidings of the great tourney. The late hours, however, which give for the nonce such @ questionable look to this usually mghteous city and the early hours, betokening a@ppareatly more virtuous courses in such iniquitous borougns as Boston, for instance, and Chicago, have, thus far, profited but little toward solving the absorbing questions:—To what city shall be taken the diamond cue? To whom in that city shall it be awarded? Shall Boston have it? It will be the sbrewdest Yankee trick on record if she do, if the layer who has already tried his hand has done his st_and she has none better to send. Will it be the glory of New York to keep it from being borne away atall? Not unless Goldthwaite gets a new influx of skill and Deery makes 1,200 points short of sixty- eight innings. Is the chronic flatulence of Chicago to have a new cause of aggravation by the inflating presence of the coveted cue? It is to oped not; et it looks as if she has best succeeded ip getting in and the self-willed little balls. Thus far, at all events, the credit of the best playing belongs to Chicago. ‘The attendance at the matches which came off yesterday afternoon and evening was, as great as ever. The players were watched as eagerly and were often heartly applauded. Some remarkabiy good runs were made, but the average feil consider- ably below that of the matches on some of the previous days. The match in the afternoon was between Snyder and Khines, of Chicago, and was the closest yet played, and probably the most inter- esting. The game was ope Rhines, who im- mediately lett his competitor far behind. At his twen- ty-lirst inning Khines nad made 400 points, against 52. The lead he was so fortunate as to obtain he was fortunate enough to maintain for a long tme, till every one thought the game decided before a thou- sand,points had been made. No one would have hesitated to risk his money on Rhines, and he would have been @ rash man that would have risked aughton Snyder. Khines on his fifty-sixth inning had a score of 1,032, against 767, and on his sixty- third 1,120, against 809. From this point the game had a different look. The spectators, to whom be- tore the match had lost avout all its interest, began to lean forward in their seats and watch each Mmanceuvre of the players with the deepest interest, On bis sixty-eight toning Snyder made 108. When he had counted a hund: the house rang with a; plause, and it was whispered about that he might not come out so badly after ail, RKhines made 6 in his next inning, but Snyder counted 66. Rhines fol- lowed, making 6 points again and Snyder came after wich 3. Then there was nothing for Rhines and 67 for Snyder and much applauding. Rhines followed with 6 pofnts, but Snyder did not count. At his next inning Ruines did count 1, but, unfortunately for him, his adversary coun' 116, and won the game by 41 points. There were 74 innings and the average was 16 and a fraction. in the evening the match was between Daniels, of Boston, and Foster, of New York. The attendance was large in the early part of the game, but for the first thousand _ the interest in it was by no means great. Daniels opened the game, but was soon teft behind by his competitor. ‘was behind nearly 300, but afterwards, by a run of 204, which won him the most enthusiastic applause elicited by the whole game, he came within 100 of his antagonist.

The deferred pigeon match of 100 birds each, for $1,000, between Ira Paine, of New York, aud James 8. Ward, of Toronto, Canada, was decided yesterday on the Secaucus Race Course grounds, N. J. The reputation of the men for expertness in shooting, and the known fact that Mr. Ward has but one haad, being born without this useful appendage to his left arm, atfracted a large throng to the scene of contest. Punctually at one o'clock the traps and baskets were brought on the ground and everything arranged for the shooting. Miles Johnson was selected oe {ndas and E. W. Tinker as for Paine, while Wm. Taylor of Jer- sey City, acted in both capacities for Ward.

PRINCETON ALUMNI. Annual Dinner of the New York Association of Princeton College. Last evening the New York Alumni Association of Princeton College gave their first annual banquet at Deimonico’s, About a year since the graduates of the time-honored college held @ meeting and suc- cessfully organized an association which has since most satisfactorily progressed. At that meeting, or rather at avery agreeable reunion, it was arranged that the graduates should assemble semi-annually— in June and December—the spring meeting to be ac- companied with a grand banquet. The most sanguine hopes of the collegiates were happily last evening happily realized. The attendance, which was exceedingly large, included several dis- tinguished clergymen and a number of the old graduates of the college. The evening was spent harmoniously, and the pleasure incident to the oc- casion was considerably enhanced by the music of an excellent band, Mr. W. C. Alexander presided. Grace having been said by the Rev. Dr. Rogers and thanks subsequently returned by the Rey. Dr. Im- bree, The chairman proposed “The President of the United States,” which was enthusfastically re- sponded to, In delivering his address to the gradu- ates and friends of the college, he ob- served that they had all assembied round a family table, as it were, as members of the same academic house, He was present in his position as president of this association, not on ac- count of any ability he possessed, but simply be- cause of the mistaken partlality of his friends. (Applause.) Yet he would not shrink from any duty which might devolve upon him connected with his office. The speaker then proceeded at some jength to dweil upon the circamstances surrounding the foundation of Princeton College. The past twenty years of her existence were years of patient fortitude and forbearance, and the eminent position which the institution now enjoyed fully demon- strated the complete and satisfactory triumph of the body of men who had established it. Seemingly the most eae, obstacles were overcome, and the labor of years Was at length rewarded with the most gratifying results The years which suc- ceeded the foundation of the college were years of no ordinary interest. But few literary institutions had been established m America. The public feel- ing throughout the colonies was excited und foster- ing, and the spirit of revolution was even then at work. But under the most adverse circum- stancesgthe college progressed with gi tic strides, At the Close of the first twenty years of her existence she gave evidence of her usefulness. No less than four hundred students were sent forth to adorn so- ciety. Jonathan Dickinson was its first president, and succeeding him were others who likewise con- tributed largely to the progress of the institution, Names more briliiant than presidents of that college did pot adorn the page of the world’s history. The chairman here aUuded to the various high orp which several of those connected with the college during the first Diet 4 years of her existence had obtained. in fact the college teemed with the thunderbolts of war, having furnished men who under summer suns and winter snows clung fast to the ensigns of the people's sovereignty and never relaxed till indepen- lence was secured. (Appisnse.) He allude most feeling terms to old college associaitons, and urged upon the graduates the neceasity of occasion- ally visiting the scene of their boyhood. He re- marked also that it was the incumbent duty of graduates to add all in their pe to assist the college, im order that knowledge Might be diffused throughout the land. The speaker traced the various important features and incidents which characterized, alluding to many eminent men who from time to time had adorned its prest- dential chair, and concluded his address amid loud tokens of approbation. The Rev. Dr. McCosh, President of the College, in returning thanks, said that Princeton Coll was to those now assembled their Alma Mater; she was his alma conjuz, (Laughter.) They were joined together till one or other was separated by death, and as it was certain that she would long outlive him that must be till he was called away from this world. His friends in the old countr, when he connected himself with tee college imagine: that he was going to @ position of dignity and ease. As to dignity, he believed that no office would dig- nify @ man who did not dignify it, and as he had not had time, as yet, either to succeed or fatl in that, he believed the least he spoke of the dignity of his i ead sition the better. But as to ease, he was obliged to say thatas yet he had none of it, and he saw no — of obtain any till the relation was dissolved y the event which severed all earthly tes. But why asked his friends, should he not make it @ place of ease and of comfort? One cause of that might perhaps be found in his Own anxious temper, which when there was @ work to be done was ever prompting him todo it. But there were other circumstances which forced him to be active, whether he would or no, The party to blame for it primarily and above ail were the Board of Trustees. yo They had come to @ settled determination to make Princeton College inferior to no other college in the United States or in the world, and they had intimated to him v plainly and decidedly that he must assist them. tn mak- ing it so. He was thus #0 situated that even if he were inclined to fall asleep those very peopie would not allow him. (Laughter.) The rev- erend gentieman gave a picturesque and historic sketch of the college, which, he observed, was ra- pidly increasing in importance. He alluded to the various new bulidings at present being added to the —— and to the earnestness of its patrons, sub- stantially manifested, to enlarge its dimensions im every respect. Besides, he found its faculty anxious to promote the interests of the col- lege, the very thought of which him tn his desire to further its progress, so that whether they had dignity or not they had certainiy no ottum cum dignitate, (Laughter and applause.) Among other important matters he observed that the absence of a professor of modern continental languages and literature was a link wanting to com- plete the chain, the hindrance to the execution of the scheme which he had so anxiously devised. He would entertain the hope that there wouid be gene- Tous friends who within the next two months would deliver them from that restraint and put them in the position desired to be attained, In order to have that end accomplished*it was necessary that there should be some endowments in the shape of fellowships to encourage a higher branch of jearning in the more important departments. Under ail the circumstances he would never be satis- fied till Princeton, so far as the faculty of arts was concerned, was equal in the number of studenta, the eMciency and the high erudition produced by any other college m America, (Applause. He Wished it to be understood that he had no desire to injure or depreciate any other university. He would be the tost ungrateful of men if he allowed any such feeling to awell in his bosom for an instant; for the governing bodies of the most distin- guished universities had offered to him the highest academic honors. The reverend gentieman adverted to his experiences when — pi of logic and metaphysics iu the Queen’s College, Belfast, showing that, in certain respects, students should be allowed their selection in regard to en ing particular classes, and demonstrating the cessful resuit of such a proceeding, He concl by observing that, with the ancient reputation of the college in their favor, with their mi fends to aid them, and, particularly, with the heip of this alumni association of New York, of another in Phil- fo and one soon to he organized in Baltimore, he was confident they would take their place, he would not gay above, but alongside of the most famous colleges in the New World or in the Old.

The excitement occasioned fa oe weeding ome LiAre| opening c! vere of J. F. ‘8 80 ir story, en 2 Hepler OL OMAN'S LOVES ey Or, LIKE AND UNLIKE,” exceeds in intensity any sensation hitherto country by the commencement of a new extra jons of ti] ee ‘SUNDAY MERCURY of the 18th and 26th ult., in which the first and second instal- ments appeal were swept off within a few hours after they were issved, and the news-stands throughout this cit and Brooklyn were literally besieged by multitudes of spp l- cants for copies of the GREAT SUNDAY NEWSPAPER, who arrived on the ground just in time to be too late, Simi+ lar disappointments will doubtless be incurred TO-MORROW, although the lightning press of the establishment, capable of throwing off 29,000 sheets in 6) mtnutes, will be kept running two hours later than usual in the hope of supplying the ane ticipated demand. By way of preface to the ruleD INSTALMENT, due to-morrow, a ful? synopsis of the portions already pub- lished will be given. This abstract will include all the lead~ ing incidents detalied in the original chapters, and enable th reader to fully understand their drift and bearing. Gre care has been taken in condensing them to. omit nothing which has any connection with the development of the plot. It will be seen that as the story proceeds its interest in- creases tenfold. The RESCUE OF ELTHA from the dark waters of the Thames by Frank Wildrush; the attempt of young Fenwick to take tage of her forlorn condition; the repulse of the licentious scoundrel by her pre- server; the scene of the coroner's inquest on en Tapscott’s son; the description of a BAL MASQUE IN PARIS; the aketch of demi-monde night life in that last oxpital interview of Wyldnesh with Oppenheim theJew broker, the attempt of the old extortionist to put hin out of the way with a glass of re POISONED BURGANDY, areamong the most thrilling and striking’ passages to ba found in the whole range of modern romance. 8o vivid and distinct are the portraitures fm this extraordi- nary story that it seems as if the guthor must have draw! thei from actual life. ‘The characters are not mere shadow: that leave buts momentary, impression as they pass, but photographs that remain indelibly fixed in the memory,” Thi same may be said of the scenes and incidents. Wild an wonderful in the extreme, they are portrayed with the araph euity and force with which great artist reproduces tt realities of nature on canvas. If dramatized—as it no doub' will be—Woman’s Love; or, Like and Unilke,” will ‘as profound a sensation among play-goers as among mory-reading public.
