We regret the commit- too sve not anade the cisgastanoss of thoir ap. peal public. The majority of charitable people neror heard of the governoat in aid of the Chin- ton sullerets by food, the consequence being i that, from want of publicity which any nows- paper would bare gratuitously given in the cause of charity, the ram subscribed is very much less than it would ot barwise have basa.
A native contemporary says that the sum of 302,000 silver you is being coined at the Osaka miat. This trifle will not go far towards relieving the anxiety respecting the financial affairs of the nation. It will be but Ball speck in the spa of paper money which is flooding this country,
and which is the chief cause of the distress among the people. There has been no famine. o Japan, and yot we hear of the poorer blaseng eating the offel which has heretofore been throwa to the pigs, because it takes thirteen yan to par obase a kdku of riae, which, two years ago, conld be obtained for five yon. The value of paper money has fallen, and the corresponding rise in tho-valde of labour, has not met with demand for it, sad now the labourlag classes are almost da-.. able to porabne the fer necessarios with: which to sustain life.

Mr. Keswick succeeded Mr. Edward Whit fall, when the latter gentleman retired from tho frui of which, he had been the Yokohama repre sentative for several years, and at once gained the popularity which our extended knowledge of him as sored to strengthen. It may be urged that valodictory addresses are too ofte conobed in language of undue compliment, but in this instance it becomes misurable act of duty to record the unvarying guilty, cour tegg, and gentleness which, combined with busl- moss nequirements and knowledge of the world, are the qualities that have secured for Mr. Keswick x larger ciralo, of real friends among foreigners and Japanese than probably any pre-
