The CoREAE TROUBLES.
YOKOHAMA, Aug. 11.--About O'Clock on
the evening Of July 23d an organized body of
insurgents took possession of the main thor
oughfare In Zeouile, capital of Corea, and at
tackled the royal residence and Japanese lega-
ton. At The latter place the envoy and con-
sui escaped with some twenty followers, and
made their way to the palace for protec-
ton, but found it already in the possession of
the rioters. They then retreated to JinzDport,
fifteen miles distant, being repeatedly assaulted
on the way,
Four were killed, three wounded and several
are missing. Tbs survivors, among whom
were the envoy and consul, reached the
British surveying ship In the neighborhood.
A Japanese ship of war was ordered to Corea
to rescue the imperiled japanese and obtain
information as to the cause of the outbreak,
but to avoid discussion or dispute. The vessel
returned August 4, announcing that the
japanese at zsoule had probably
s ssfn was SLAUGHTERED . sas Of the an.4 ssD
OF the royal inmates of the palace the king
alone was spared the queen being murdered.
The kings heir and the latter's betrothed,
both children. were poisoned. Thirteen min
listers of state and other high dignitaries were
slain. The proceedings are said to have been
directed by the ex,regent, Tain Kun, by some
pronounced the father, by others the uncle, of
the king. He has always been violent op-
ponent of foreign intercourse. Whether he
assumed the control of the governments not
vet known. AT Ports Flu San and Gensan there
has been no disturbance. Japan acted with
promptness and prudence. Naval and
military rendezvous have been established at
1T 81 -
was dispatched to the seems OF disorder, ana
troops gathered to await the development OF
affairs. Reparation must bs absolute and IN
conditional or war will ensue. kilograms
from the navy department at Washington
have been received by Admiral Clitz, COM
handing the United States naval force in
Asia, announcing that Commodore ehufeldPs
treaty with Corea has been rejected, and re-
guessing that ship of war be sent to Corea,
and stating that Mr.. Young, United States
envoy to China, would assume diplomatic
control of the question. The German treaty
with Corea has been signed, and an attempt
to negotiate French treaty has been foiled,
owing to the Ftench agent insisting that mis-
sionaries be allowed to pursue their calling in
the kingdom.
MARTYRED MISSIONARY.
Hone KoNe, July S0.-Courank, the French
missionary, reported killed by native mob
near Amoor river, still survives, but is in
pitiable condition: The injuries inflicted
upon him are of the most horrible
kind. The French legation at Pekin are now
investigating the matter. Affairs are still un-
settled between the French in Arnim and
the native authorities. Yong, United States
envoy to China, is on the way from Shanghai
to meet LIE Hang Chang.
THE STARS AND STRIPES INsULTED.
YOKOHAMA, Aug. 1.-THE i'll feeling
among American residents of Japan was start
ed by repeated and apparently studied dis
courtesies to the United States flag on
the part of British naval off,
GERS. The American ship swattera
Jeff Yokohama homeward bound on July 81,
and was salnted according to custom by war
ships of every nationality, excepting the Eng
lish. The British feet at Yokohama went
away ca the ID of July last, and remained
at sea over the 4th of July, avoiding the necss-
sity for salute. Similar Incidents constantly
occurred during Grants visit, and the deter
mination of British army officers at Hong
Kong to withhold salutes on Washington's
birthday has been the cause of difference be-
tween the officers and Governor Sir John Hen
proprieties on such occasions. 1t is
claimed on behalf of British agents their con-
duct is regulated by orders from London. The
Corean troubles have iDjuriously affected the
paper currency, which is now as q discount of
10 per cent below silver. Ths extraordinary
reports in Japanese newspapers respecting the
cremation of the corpses of victims to
cholera appear TO have stricken the
people with panic, and considerable numbers
forsook their work. The government au-
thorities finding it impossible to replace them
even by men of greatignorsnce and question
able character, work was neglected. Scores
of bodies dried before burned aud persons
still alive were thrown into the flames. There
were violent gales between Japan and China
DUNG early August. Many sail
ing ships are repsrted heavily
damaged and several are missing. Dispatches
from China announce hurricane along the
southeastern coast, which resulted disas-
trously to shipping, and heavy floods occurred
in the interior provinces of Japan, causing
great injury to the rice crop aud loss OF hu-
man life and cattle.
Cholera is decreasing in Yokohama, Toxic
and vicinity.
Cap'G Cook as Mother Did.
How many young wife's heart is sad
dened and happiness scattered because she
cannot "cook as mother did," 1t Is strange,
sadly strange, and yet we all know it is true.
How a.y time has the tender hearted re-
porter felt his soul bursting with grief as he
told the narrowing story of some poor suf-
feriEg woman, whose cheerful sunshine had
turned 10 dismal darkness just because she
could not "cook as mother did," And how
it delights the heart of the reporter when he
chances TO bear of one devoted young wife
who is rescued from the gloomy fate of SO
many in manner so simple and easy that the
only wonder is that all are not saved. This
one to whom he now refers was led blush
ing and blooming bride, but few short
weeks ago, to the altar by one of our most
promising and prominent young men. He
promised tc do everything in his power to
make her happy, but In an evil hour he made
the dangerous discovery that che could not
s'cook as mother did," He told her 60, and
from that hour the life light of happiness
began to die out in her once radiant eyes. The
bloom that put to shame the fancied perfec.
tion of the rose departed from her cheek. the
voice that welcomed him to happy heart
and home grew silent as the grave, and the
young husband saw that something muet be
dons soon. He asked the sorrowful wife why
she was SO sad, and she told him because she
could not cook as his mother did," but il
she had Royal Baking Powder he could say so
no longer. Like sensible fellow he ordered
a dozen boxes at once, and now he says that
he is afraid that his wife will raise the roof
OIL the house some day, but he don't care, for
she is happy.
