'Correspondence Enquire!-Sun.
Ykddo, Japan July 3. It will intertat
some of your readers to learn something of
this far-off country and people. It is well
For us occasionally to look far beyond our
v.wn immediate surroundings and enquire
ire hat other races and other people are do-
Jngaudhow they spend this existence.
We may, by this, become more' contented
with our own lot and more thankful to
Abe Kuler of kingdoms for the blessings
we enjoy and for that civilization which
..encircles us.
That your readers may he the better pre
pared to appreciate the various subjects to
he discussed in the series of letters I will
write, from this point, touching upon the
•organization of domestic society, religion,
morals and chiefly npon labor and labor
organizations, it is proper that in this first
of these communications I should give
dear notions of the geographical and phys
ical conditions of the country.
It is now nearly a quarter of a century
since Perry opened the sealed gateways of
■Japan to the commerce and travel of the
world. The unique civilization of an island
•empire with an area of| 160,000 square
miles and .more than 36.000,000 of people
was then first presented to modern times
for study and investigation.
Japan is a long and narrow island or
Islands extending along the eastern coast
of Asia, between the 31st and Kith paral
lels of north latitude, and witli tempera
ture ranging about the same as that of the
United States. Through (he center of this
island chain, running north and south, is
one long mountain range with spurs of
lesser elevations running at right angles.
Interspersed througn all these
mountain masses are innumerable
fertile valleys. Along either
coast are extensive alluvial plains.
As the spurs of the mountains slope
•iway towards the sea they present gentle
hillsides susceptible of tillage. It is on
•these alluvial plains along the sea, through
these fertile volleys, mid on the gentle
mountain slopes that, the laborer is to be
found. The soil is a black vegetable mold
from two to ten feet in depth and resting
upon a, deep clay subsoil. Rivers and ca
nals furnish an abundance of clear, pure
water.
The remarkable beauty of Japanese
scenery has won the admiration of every
visitor. Her grand mountain ranges, cov
ered with trees and shrubs, clothed in per-
petuu) green, the charming and pictur
esque valleys carpeted with richest ver-
lure and blossoming with ilowers ofa
'thousand hues, including the lotus, queen
of lilies, which fills the atmosphere with
Its rich perfume, the rushing torrents and
■winding rivers, sparkling with clearest
water; her numerous and varied islands,
her varieties of shrubs and trees,
and herskiesof purest blue—ull combine
to make their impress on the character of
her people.
Cheerfulness of disposition and love of
the beautiful are striking characteristics o(\
the natives. Horn and reared amidst such
charms of nature, forms of beauty become
every-day familiar objects, and it is no
matter of wonder that they bring into ex
istence some of tlie lovliest works of art
that human hands have ever formed, or
that that the smiles of sky and earth, air
and sen should lie reflected on their faces
and in their lives. The laborer sings at
his toil, goes cheerfully to his simple meal
and engages with the enthusiasm of boy
hood in ins holiday sports.
The Japanese are not of Chinese origin,
but. belong rather to the great Indu-Huro-
pean family. The distinctive character
istic of this oriental civilization, as com
pared to ours of the west, is its extreme
simplicity of food, dress, houses, house
hold appurtenances and general style of
living. The precepts of religion, the lnax-
• inn-of got eminent and t he fashions of the
times inculcate and command the practice
of frugality and rigid economy, while the
xrtmle influence of our western civilization
tends to lead the laborer to habits of show
-Wad luxury beyond his means, When wo
consider that there are seven or
eight hundred million of people
dwelling on the southern and eastern
shores of Asia, the majority of them work-
• 01s,'living up to tip' requirements of ori
ental simplicity and ready to compete
with our people in every branch of human
industry, then surely the earlier and more
thoroughly we can acquaint ourselves with
their ways, tluiir condition and surround
ings, the belter will we be prepared to pro
vide against the threatened evils growing
nut of competition with them in the near
future. American labor Is already in a
■ disturbed and chaotic condition. If the
pushing tide of commerce shall bring to
■ nur doors articles made by the
toil of Japanese and other Asi
atic laborers whose expense of liv
ing is but a trifle as compared
"with tlie cost of living in America and
whose wages amount to no morein a month
than the American laborer would waste in
some holiday sport, may we not look with
concern at the many vexed questions
which may yet arise before the relations
of the employer and the employed can be
finally and satisfactorily adjusted in this
country.

we are now disposed to regard as pagan

generally is one of buoyant hopefulness.
Next Saturday will probably be the last
legislative day of the session. Two or three-
days will thus be given the president to

This will carry the final dissolution up to

Rock titan am Court House. N. C., July
28.—The high waters throughout North
Carolina developed a romantic marriage in
Rockingham comity yesterday. Mr. James
Madison Stout arid liss Polly Mickle, one
of the most beautiful young ladies in this
county, started together yesterday to get
married. They were accompanied by a
small wedding party. When they reached
Jones' creek they found that the water
was u)i and they could not cross. They
were going to the parson’s, on the other
side, to be married.
“I’ll swim across,” said Tony Bush, the
groom's best man, “and bring thepreacher
to the other bank, and he can marry you
from there.”
He soon had Preacher Hazlett on the
opposite shore. He gave him Jim’s license
and told him to proceed.
“Join hands, my friends,” shouted the
preacher, and from across the stream he
made them man and wife.
“Three cheers for the American eagle!”
cried the groom as he flung his hat in the
air. “Parson, here’s to the weather, and
here’s to the tide, and here’s a kiss for my
bonny bride. Tony, hand the parson that
*6 bill, and be on hand to-night at the frolic
at Mammy Stout’s.”
“God bless you both,” cried the parson,
cheerily, waving with one hapd and Buff
ing the money in his breeches pocket with
the other.
He knew his business; Spriggins—“You
are a society reporter, aren’t you?” Pen-
nibs—“J have that inexpressible felicity.”
Hpriggius—“You write up the fashions,
don’t you?” Pennibs—“That is one of my
numerous functions.” Sprigging—“Well,
how much will you charge for a paragraph
vill you charge tor a paragraph
stating that a plain gold band is now the
proper thing for an engagement ring? I
have to buy one for Mamie to-morrow,
and if I could show her such a paragraph
it would be a hundred dollars in my pock
et.”—Rambler.

Washington, July 30.—When a review
is made of the work of the present sessson
it will be discovered that, with tlie excep
tion of the defeat of the Morrison tariff
bill, the record made by the democratic
party is a very creditable one. The speak
er, Col. Morrison, and other gentlemen
prominent iu the leadership of the house
are in good spirits over the condition of
things. The appropriations have been less
than they were at the last session, and a
great deal less than the forty-seventh
congress, when tlie republicans had cou-
“Why, Do Sappy, what’s the matter?”
asked Fitzporcy, as lie entered his friend’s
room and found him reclining on the
lounge looking very pale. “Aw, I’m almost
exhausted, Chappy,” replied De Sappy.
“Been overexerting yourself, I suppose.”
“Yes. My cigarette went out four tiroes

BLOOD AND MONEY.
The blood of man has much to do in shaping
his actions during his pilgrimage through this
troublesome world, regardless of the amount ol
present or expectant money in pocket or stored
away in hank. It is a conceded fact that we aj>
peur as our blood makes u*. and the purer the
blood, the happier, healthier, prettier and wisei
,ve are; hence the oft-repeated interrogatory,
“how is your blood ?*’ With pure streams of life-
giving fluid conning through our veins, bounding
through our heart-, and ploughing through oui
physical frames our morals become better, our
constitution stronger, our intellectual* faculties
more accute and grander, and men, women and
children happier, healthier and more lovely.
The unprecedented demand, the unparalleled
curative powers, and the unmistakable proof from
those of unimpeachable character and integrity,
point with an unerring finger to B. B. B.-Botanic
Blood Balm-as far the best, the cheapest, the
quickest, and the grandest and most powerful
blood remedy ever before known to mortal man.

Kidney complaints, old ulcers and sores, cancers,
catarrh, etc,
B. B. B. U only about three years old—a baby in
age, a giant in power-hut no remedy In America
can make or ever lias made such a wonderful
showing in its magical powers in ouring and en
tirely eradicating the above complaints, and
gigantic sales in the face of frenzied opposition
and would-be money monopolists.
Letters from all points where introduced are
pouring in upon us, speaking in the loudest praise.
Some say they receive more benefit from one bot
tle of B. B. B. than they have from twenty, thirty
and fifty, and even one hundred bottles of a
boasted decoction of inert and non-medicinal
roots, and branches of common forest trees. We
hold the proof in black and white, and we also
hold the fort.
I'oliceuiiui'H View*.
Mrs. M. M. Prince, living at 38 West Fair street,
Atlanta, Ga„ has been troubled for several
months with an ugly form of catarrh, attended
with a copious and offensive discharge from both
nostrils.
Her system became so affected and reduced that
she was couflned to bed at my house for some
time, and received the attention of three
physicians, and used a dozen bottles of an exten
sive^’advertised blood remedy, all without the
least benefit.
She finally commenced the use of B. B. B., with
a decided improvement at once, and when ten
bottles had been used, she was entirely cured of
all symptoms of catarrh.
It gave her an appetite, and increased her
strength rapidly, and I cheerfully recommend it
as a quick and cheap tonic and Blood Purifier.
