China. COrea and Japan.


In 1876 the Japanese succeeded in
makinga commercial treaty with Corea
BY which three ports we're opened to
trade. Partly, perhaps, through The
indiscreet behavior of the settlers.
but chiefly through the hostility Of
the CoTeans to all foreigners, the rela-
tions between the two countries have
been in a state Of tension for three or
four years past. The anti. foreign
party in Oorea, which seems to have
the upper hand for the moment, Is as
hostile to the Japanese as TO Europe
aus. To increase the elements of dis.
%cord-and it is here the real danger
lles-China possesses certain claims 70
suzeranlty over the peninsula. Corean
tribute bearers travel annually to Pc,
kin, where a certain Yamen is set
apart for their reception. The Chi
nese have shown that they are ex-
tremely tenacious Of all such claims,
however shadowy they may appear to
the Western mind, and their amour
propre has been wounded by the man
ner In which they have been set aside

PISTOLS For Two.

At the Memphis and Charleston
depot last night, just before the train
moved out, a difficulty occurred in the
rear end Of the sleeper between A. T..
Wimberly. of Mississippi, and Colonel
NJ. Q. Galloway, Of this city, which
would probably have terminated ia
tally, except for the prompt interior
eacs Of Patrolman John Mcfarland.
The latter, while standing on the plat
form, heard the noise of a disturbance
in the sleeper, and as he stepped in at
the door, Wimberly was in the act of
cooking a pistol in Colonel Gallaway's
face, remarking at the same time:
you can't call me that, sir"
Mcfarland at once put a stop to
the affair by suatching the pistol from
Wimberly's hand. Colonel Galloway
then walked off aud Mr.. Wimberly
was arrested and brought before Presi
dent MADDEN this morning. His at.
tOrneys plead in his defense that he
was an internal revenue officer, on his
way to New York on official business
and, therefore, had a right to carry
arms.
President Hidden remarked that
his official authority was not sufficient
to justify him in drawing pistol upon
a private citizen, and imposed fine of
fifty dollars, besides binding the pris-
Oner over to the Criminal Court. An
appeal was prayed for.
