AMUSING JAPANESE' TRIBUTE TO ENGLAND.
There is a large missionary school in Tokio where, the teaching is given in English. One of the pupils not long ago wrote a composition on England, : from which these are extracts: " The England which occupied of the largest and greatest dominion which rarely can be. The Englishman always works with very powerful hands and , the long legs, and even the eminenced mind and his chin is so strong as deserved iron. Being spread out from Europe to Australia to America his dominion is dreadfully extensive, so that his countrymen boastfully says: ' The sun are never set on our dominion.' The testimony of England say that 'he that lost the common sersc, ho never had any benefit, though he has gained a complete world.' Tho English are cunning mention to establish a great Empire of the Paradise. As the Englishmen alway6 confide the object of the pure and the order to be holy, and they reproach him if any of them are killed to death with the contention of other men!"
