Roberts \ believed that the whole, enterprise would end 1 tln?re, aud anS her treasure bo allowed to ,un disturbed forevermore. But ,pn ,hts 'l it irbnm-^fiT the season the diver managed to push bis band through a hole in the tank and secured a black lump resembling a piece of coal. The lump, on examination, proved to consist of twenty-four American trade-dollars, burned and oxidized so much that they required a great deal of scouting to reveal their truaebar- acter. Bnt they were much more '-*“»*■ than $24 ; .they were valuable as an encouragement to the underwriters to continue at their work^ »-The wreckers retired to Hong Kong lor the fix mouths of the northeast mon soon, otul resumed operations in the following spring. Since then there been no serious obstacle to the pros ecution of the enterprise, and during the summers of 1876 and 1877 about $175,00 of treasure has beeu recov ered. It is thought that the balance of tlie money will be secured in 1878. It is the first wrecking operation ever conduced iu the open ocean at so great a depth, ami the instances wnerc divers have descended so far, even in still water, arc comparatively few. The coin is mostly in good condi tion, though nearly all of it is black and heavily oxidized. Some near the surface of the tank was partially melted by the heat of the burning steamer, and many of the boxes are charred ahd broken. Some of the dollars are bright as new when brought to the surface, but they speedily turn black when exposed to the air. No attempt has been made to secure anything except the coin, but on one occasion a line was passed around a case of tinned lobsters, by way of experiment. The lobster was sweet and fresh as when first put up, and the Chinese found it good eat ing. The gilt eagle that ornamented the stern of the “ Japan * lies on the dark sand of the bottom, and the Captain thinks that when bis wot k on the treasure is ended he will take this bird iu as a trophy. But he is now too busy with silver eagles to take any trouble about a gilded one.
