American Commerre ON the Pacific
Ocean.

Washington, Nov. 23.-It is stated
that Secretary Thompson, in his forth
coming annual report, will express the
opinion that Commodore Shufeldt's mis-
sion to Corea may yet produce import
amt results. He has succeeded IN re-
moving the most, IL not all, the irrita-
tion caused by the trouble when the
Shenandoah was there some years ago.
The efforts will be continued to have
the ports of that country open to the
world. The Coreans already buy
American goods, preferring them to
European, and obtaining them through
Japan.
Our government is understood to have
reason to believe that the letter of
Commodore Shufeldt to the king Of Co.
rea has not yet been sent by him;
failure to conclude the matters is at
tributed to the presence of the English
and French fleets. The negotiations
will continue throughout the mediation
Of Japan. Secretary Thompson will
probably give considerable prominence
in his report to the subject OF Ameri-
can commerce in the Pacific ocean.

Another Insult 10 an American Vessel

Panama, Nov. 23.-The Star and
Herald says: The American schooner
Mary L. Hall, bound for David, with a
general cargo, was stopped by the Chill
ian steamer Amazon. As this schooner
is small coaster Of 27 tons, 1t is ridi-
culous to suppose that she could have
had arms on board for Peruvian ports.
Two blank shots were fired from the
Amazon on the night OF the sth, when
the Amazon sighted the schooner, as a
signal for Capt. Nash to heaye 10,
which he, evidently misunderstanding
disregarded and kept ON his course. II
is also said he apparently bore away to-
wards the Otonque islands and gave the
people on the steamer the idea that he
was trying TO escape. This aroused
suspicion, and two shells were fired at
the schooner, which was then hove TO.
The cargo was examined and found to
be general merchandise destined for
David, in the department of Chihuahua
The firing OF the projectiles naturally
occasioned considerable alarm among
the people on board the schooner, the
captain of which had his children with
him. The Gillian commander was in
formed of this. and on learning the
nationality and character of the vessel
he sent an apology for the firing, the
detention. and the alarm he had caused
his family.

How TO get nld OF .AIn-l.a.

Washington. Nov. pa suggestion
is delica.ely given out here that it
might by well for the government to
get rid of Alaska by leasing it to \
commercial company. 1t might be as
well for the government not to restore
slavery under such guise. In the seal
fur isles that is what has been done.
and the miserable Aluets permitted to
sell what they have for sale only to a
commercial company, and suffered to
buy what they want from that com
pany only. They are put in condition to
be as completely robbed of all the fruits
of their labor as they were under the
slave drivers lash. The lease of the
remainder of Alaskan territory signi-
iies an extension of merely that dis
graceful state of affairs.

An Obnoxious british Captain.

Norfolk, Nov. 23.-The officers Of
the navy yard are excited and indig-
nant because the captain Of the British
steamer Sandringham, which was
beached of Cape Henry some time ago,
and which by the courtesy Of the seere-
tary of the navy was allowed TO come
into the dockyard to repair. took ocea-
sion TO launch the bitterest inyectiyes
on the American navy, Its officers, and
the flag. Commodore IIuguson, learn
ing this fact, ordered the vessel out of
the yard at once and no work to he al
lowed done on her until instructions
are received from the secretary of the
navy.
