He rendered homage to the honourable spirit in which the Japanese had executed ull Tomar Irostics, but he did not neglect to add that Switzeriod was quite ready to enter into nego tiations for making them wider and still more effective. Thoro is, in fast, reason for belier. ing that the subject has already been entend upan, and that the Japanone diplomatist baa presect the desire of his Government to re vise all the treaties now existing between Japan and diferent European Powers. Some letters from Japan, which appeared in e Frecob a paper of at thority not long ago, contained statement, generally disbelieved at the ting, that the Japaneso Embay which had boon sort to Europe was instructed to obtain the consent of the varións Governments to a Aabeme for holding an international.conference, at which the revision of the trestics mowin force with Japan sbould be díanvased.
