The Government has resolved to pui la oper- atlon. the naw Treaties in July next year, and notice bas been given accordingly to the Trenly Powers in sccordance with the provisions of the new eratlos.
The revision of the existing Treaties has been the esimest desire of all the people of Japan,- whether connected or unconnected with the Garemment ever at ce the Restoration. Now the opportunity has arrived, and within a year Japan will enter the comity of nations on an qual fooling. When we acquire the rights, we must remember to discharge the datles attending the rights. The demeanour of the *panese towards foreigners will not only represent the degree of the civilization of Japan, but will affect the prestige of this Emplic. The people of japin should treat foreigners in a broad and liberal spirit, and receive them with kio'ness and cordially, thus endeavouring to make manifest more than ever the good name of the nation, and the 'glory of the Empire.
