The receipt has not come as yet for the latter remittance. We give below a facsimile reproduction of the Japanese official receipt of the first remittance. The beginning is at the right, and it reads from the top down.
It may be of interest to our readers to learn through Mr. Field that the government department of affairs in the provinces, says that while the money was needed, and has been used for the needy, that the accounts published in American papers were often greatly exaggerated. There has not been the great loss of life reported. The great distress is now over, and there is a fair prospect for crops.
We will give receipt for second remittance as soon as it comes.
