THE VANGUARD OF NISEi OPINION

classics, he astounded his friends by
reading a Chinese version of Muir­
head’s “History of England” shortly
after Commodore Perry sailed up the
Bay of Edo with his black ships. In
1870 he went to Paris, and there asso­
ciated both with statesmen and po­
liticians such as Gambetta and Cle­
menceau as well as literary circles,
even collaborating with the daughter
of Theophile Gautier in producing a
Japanese drama.
Of his life in Paris, it is said of him
that he outdid the Parisians them­
selves; but he returned to Japan ten
years later with a cosmopolitan and
philosophical outlook that tempered
his thought and policy through sixty
years of service to his country.
