TO-DAY'S MISCELLANY.
The King has received a növel gift in connection with the vit of the Crown Prince of Japan. †The present takes the form, of a poem, wristen on a gula and buff mat, and is intended as a sort of *envoy." ~"The poem, originally written in Japanese, is the work of Mrs. Burnett, wife of the American military attache in Tokyo whose composition in the Japanese prize-poem competition we recently noticed. A transla tion of the poem presented to King George reads:
Beloved son of a great nation Thou farest far upon a mighty
mission
From east to west, sun moon
and stars,
The wind and wave, compan-
ions to thy journey,
Were writ from the beginning, By one who plans the destinies
of men.
That same doth hold thee
In divinest knowledge of the
Right."
Young prince, go forward-As. In the shadow of His Light. --- The poem was compared 'as a gift to the Prince, but it received such favour in the Imperial Honse that it was decided to sand copies to King George, the. the President of the French Republic, and to the powers that be in other countries which were to be visited.
