Despite all effort, how ever, Corea has, till a few weeks ago, remained closed to all outside barbarians, and the manners and -customs of her people, their station- .. ary civilization, their stagnant se clusion have been but subjects of conjecture. Commodore Shufeldt, of tke American, navy, who has been for many years in oriental ' - waters, has succeeded in establish- ing commercial relations between tfig'Corean government and the ' United States. This, it is reported, - --was only accomplished after two , years of persistent application, accompanied by the aid and recom- ,. mendation oil the Chinese and ;. .'Japanese govern ments. The Com modore returned to this country by way of San Francisco on the 30th of "July, and in an interview with a Chronicle reporter, spoke substantially as follows : . "Corea is a country that has ! long been inaccessible to the world. I believe I am the firsl while man who has ever trod the soil of the -interior, and therefore, perhaps, I im a curiosity. So far as I saw them, the people of Corea are ... .Steady attached to their country, . have no disposition to emigrate, which accounts for their exclusive "' nes"s heretofore, but are possessed of a lively curiosity. On landing in Corea to meet the two Ministers appointed by the Icing to negotiate - . this treaty, two officers accompan ied mn for en mo distance into the - interior. "We were unarmed, but were not molested. The ioads over which we traveled were lined with people for miles, attracted probably by "their first opportunity to look .-upon the face of a white man. In I some instances they crowded around us, and 1 suppose com men ted upon our .strange dress and appearance, but they made no : . attempt to molest us. "We pardoned . , their obtrusiveness, because we . -" , were probably a great mystery to them. -'-- The Cureans look much unlike TChinamen. Their complexion is light, their hair dark, long and " - wiry, -and their eyes black. They remind mp of the North American vlndian, and I believe the resem- - iblarice is sufficiently close to justify the belief that Corea furnished the y-shiateriaHo populate .this country .originally. All the difference be-. Aiisreen the two races could have J-Jfc&feh produced by climate and ""mode of living after the immigra- tidri here. Owing to the fact that V naturalists have never had an op- v"-i:.portu.nity- to investigate Corea, (V -.this resemblance has not been ear- ; :- - ried out to its logical conclusion. vj..,. . '.'All the occupation the Coreans have -is agriculture, and the product .. . of .the soil is mostly consumed at Home. They export a little rice and a few beans to Japan, but they have no'commerce and no marine. -:it All their carrying is done on ani mals or by means of imperfect boats on, the rivers. They appear .inoffensive and not disposed to gb to war with anobody, and yet the mass of the people are said to be ""p'urious in.fegard to outside affairs. """ TKe 'country is ruled by a kinjr, who, in his own dominion, is an absolute despot, having complete power over ir.i lives ami property -.. " bfOae most noble of his subjects. jjHeJa assisted in governing by m counoij selected from the nobility 'wWo have charge of the various - departments judicial, war, financi ISPMfWl and interior departments. The person of the Icing for centuries ft -bks been absolulelr inaccessible, m and no person of his own race, h TMraoh leas a fqrigner, has been able 'to (M into his presence. It is sac- ! rilegc to utter tire uamc ho lias re- coi ved from Iris suzerain, and that ' by whioh he is known in history is only siven him after his death. It " is high treason to touch his person ! wcapon of iron' Notwith- 'Mannilinrthpninnmvli eXClUMVV- ncss. however, in theory Iris ear ib tlwava onen to the tionl and an i i i j itics is also hiirh treason, and the pnnces ot tne dioou are exeiuaecni si i Xeludedl . . wnonv irom power. About a vear since a plot to gain control of the government was discovered among the nobles, and every person in any waj' connected with it was behead ed. This treatment of the parti cipents in the imbroglio was a sal utarv lesson. Although the king wields such power, there are two political parties among the nobles of Corea, One. party is called the progressists, the other by a name which implies their antipodes, those opposed to progress. The former party is at present in power, a fact which lendcred the negotia tion of our treaty possible." The treaty has notyer been rat ified, but it is thought that at the December session of congress the matter will be jjiven affirmation. Mom'axjl fc among the U eali ties that are enjoying an excep tional prosperity at this time. In Helena there is a genuine boom in real estate speculation. Land tlrat could have been bought in that vi cinity a few weeks ago for ten dol lars an aero cannot be obtained now for a hundred. Three new banks have been started in the town within a period of four months. One cause of all this ex citement is the rapid progress in the Northern Pacific railroad, and the conviction that Helena is so favorably situated that it must reap the benefit of much of the traffic and commercial develop ment that are expected io follow. The town willbe nearly midway be tween cmraral imDorlant.trade ren ters. It is distant from Chicnjro 1,565 miles J from San Francisco, 1,300; and from Astoria, 910. That the world's news is more a matter of sensation than actual fact, is best illustrated by the cable dispatches. Before the Egyptian troubles, column after column were telegraphed to London relative to the Irish question. Xow the ICm erald Isle gets b.riof mention. Not that matters in that distracted province are in any better shape than they were two week" ngo, but because Arabi 13ey is "ihe Ia3t sensation." "Tis just like a stage, one scene is forgotten in the. eager ness of the audience to sec "what's coming next." A Hebald correspondent, sum ming up the Egyptian question, says: France is largely oppose .1 to England, and but for the fear of Bismarck Gladstone would have to call of his war dogs immediately. Politicians of all shades ask me why it is the American press pub lishes such one-sided reports of the doings in Egypt. Several corres pondents of Paris journals, writers whose reputations stand unques tioned,boldly denounce many items as lacking in truth. Ix a skirmish between the. Eng lish troops and the Egyptians un der Arabi Bey, last Saturday near Alexandria, the English comman der reports a loss of four killed and.twenty-nine wounded. He says that the object of the reconnoi sance was obtained, he simply desiring to see how strong A raid's position was. , BOKX. At Astoria, August 5th, 1882, to the wifoof S.
