A Hawk as Heaven's Messenger.

A H«markal»l« Japanc** Story

A curious memorandum (from which the following is extracted) has been presented by Mr M Itoto the Mikado, and translated into English and for warded to the Times by the author himself:—ln the memorable naval fight in the , Yellow Sea a desperate en gagement took place between the fleets of Japan and China from noon to dusk, and several of the enemy's ships were ■unk and burnt, the rest taking to flight. It was nearly dark when the battle ceased. Just then something was observed to descend from the skies with a great force and hover about over His Majesty's ship Takachiho, and finally perch upon the top of the mainmast, when it was observed to be a hawk. The commander of the ship, Captain T Nomura, ordered one of the marines to ascend the roast and seize the bird. The latter, dropping iijs head, did not at tempt to move, but seemed glad to be caught A bird obtained in this singular manner was naturally wel corned with enthusiasm as heaven's messenger, and it was decided to keep it alive wUh care. There being at that time no fresh meat in the ship to give to the bird, the whole vessel was soon in a bustle to hunt for rats a circum stance, which, by-the bye, illustrates how inexhaustible is the energies of the officers and men in the Imperial navy. It was after the vessel had re turned to the month of the Tai-dong gang that the bird was first fed on pure meat. Shortly afterwards Commander Miki Saito, a naval officer in attend ance upon His Majesty, was ordered by the Emperor to pay a visit to the Japanese fleet in the Tai-dong-gang as an Imperial messenger. On learning from the commander of the Takachiho the story of this bird he took it bask with him to the Imperial military headquarters, where it was presented to His Majesty, together with an account of the circumstances connected with its capture. His Majesty was so pleased with it that he ordered it to be kept at the headquarters, naming it Takachiho—" Taka " means hawk in Japanese—after the vessel on which it was obtained. The hawk is a most fierce, brave, and daring member of the winged community. It is a remark able circumstance that a king of Kudara once made a present of a hawk to the Emperor Ninkotu in the forty-third year of his reign. Kudara is the present Corea, and it was then under the sway of the Imperial Japanese Court. .As to the Emperor Ninkotu, ho is remembered as a great sovereign, wise, and benevolent, always solicitous for the welfare of his subjects, '
