JAPANESE COUNSEL.
Press Association —Copyright. Sydney, September 27,
Speaking at a farewell, Count Iwasaki, the Acting Japanese ConsulGeneral, who has been appointed Secretary to the Japanese Embassy at St. Petersburg, said:—"lt would be idle to prctend'that there are not many grave and important questions pending which may be fraught with serious consequences to your nation and mine. I do not mean by this that there is any justicfiation for the scares which some people are fond of raising. The real danger comes from the fact that when a large mtmbor of men and women are persuaded by thoso who ought to know better that some great impossible peril is threatening them, they are apt to lose their heads and behave in a manner calculated to develop a new series of difficulties altogether; Those most bitter against the Japanese know least about them.''
