SHANGHAR, May 25, 1868, In accordance with instructions from the late Rear Admiral H. H. Bell, commanding the United States Asiatic squadron, and acting upon information which led to the belief that a portion of the crew of the American schooner Genera! Sherman, burned in the Pin-Yang river, Corea, more than two years since, were now held in captivity im Corea, the Americam man-of-war Shenandoah, Commander J.0. Febiger, sailed from this port on the 1stlrof March, and after an exceedingly rough passage arrived at Chefoo, Shantung promontery and pro- ‘vince, on the afternoon of March 25. From Chefoo the vessel sailed for Tung-chau, thirty miles distant, to secure the services of an interpreter. Tung-Chau ‘was the original treaty -port, but in consequence of a bay harbor¢the place was given up for Chefoo. ‘There are living in Tung-Chay four American fami- lies, one at each gate. They are all missionaries and *. all from Southern New York. The Shenandoah remained at Tung-chau a few Gays, and the services of Mr. Mateer, one of the mis- sionaries, were obtained for the expedition. Mr. E. . Sanford, United States Consu! at Ciefoo, also ac- companied the expedition. The services of two Chinese pilots, who had been in the Corea and on the Pin-Yaag river, were also secured. Efforts. were also made'to secure the Chinese pilot who took the Generat Sherman over and who afterwards accam- panied the Qnalted States steamer Wachusett when Commander Shufeldt was sent to make investiga- tions in this same matter, but it was reliably ascer- tained that he had recently died. The Shenandoah left Chefoo on the evening of the ‘7th of April and arrived off the cost of Corea on the everiing of the 9th, after a pleasant run, clear Weather and moonlight nights. Anchorage was found in a sheltered bay, where bottom’ was found at forty-five feet, but which lessened to twenty-two feet as the tide fell, and the vessel was obliged to move further out. A few people were seen and clusters of straw hats along the shore, Soon after coming to anchor three men were discovered running tery fast ‘overthe hitls into the interior, and it was presumed | they were going to report at headquarters the ar- fival of the ship. This first anchorage was sup- posed to be near the entrance to the Pin+Yang river, but the pilots seemed to have very little knowledge of the position, The vessel remained at this anchor- age until (he 11th inst., when sie was moved within ‘between the isiands and the main land, and a few miles beyond came again to anchor, and, as ori- ginally intended, the surveys were begun, On the 11th an entrance to a river was- found and ft was thought at first it might be the Pin-Yang, and it proved tobe so, Atthis point the vessel re- mained until the 17th, while thorough surveys were ‘made, and on the evening of the 17th the vessel was moved into the entrance of the river. There had only been two days of cold and rainy weather up to this time, the remaining days being Gelightfnl in temperature and beautifully clear. The cultivation along the shore seemetl to be as far ad- anced as and compared favorably with the Chinese fields farther to the south. The hilis were not as barren as is the general aspect of the Chinese coast. Indeed, the country much resembled the banks of the river Min below Fol-Chau. The time :auch re- sembled spring time in the more northern of the Mid- le States of America. So farno dangerous shoals were found, as was Somewhat anticipated. One or two rocky places Were found that during the spring tides might not @ppear at high water. This was all. On the morn- ing of the isth of April, on an island which they pamed “Station Island,” there was found attached * toone of the surveying tats a communication ‘written in Citinese or Coreay—the characters are the q It was brought on board and translated by i teer.

This was a statement of the tiring upon the boat and ademand for an apology, and that if an amicable arrangement was not soon made the Amer- ican squadron would likely visit the place hereafter and compel a settlement, ‘This was the first time there had been communiva- tion with the shore since the firing affair, and they sent back a communication and the following day another was brought on board. In two days the ve steamed down the river and commenced sur- veying again while awaiting an answer from the Emperor, which would consume ten days in trans- mission, A large number of communications from different officials were received inquiring the busl- ness of the yessels coming to Corea, and all of them quite uniform so far as cohtents wer@ concerned. Oa the first afrival of the vessel a communication was sent to the Emperor through the local magis- trate of the Chang Leen province, demanding an ex- planation of the loss of the General Sherman and crew, and afterward the other communication al- ready alluded to demanding apology tor firing into the boat was also sent, and at the same time a copy of the first communication. A ‘These last were sent through another officlal, the local magistrate of the Sun Hoa province, perceiving him to be a higher officer and trusting that through him a letter to the Emperor would be more sptedily delivered. Quite an amount of correspondence. was held through this latter oficial, who seemed to be more polite, better educated and more straightfor- ward. May 11-a communication was received from the Chang Leen magistrate, stating that he did not dare to present the letter sent him to the Emperor, as it was not from the United States government, but from an inferior officer; but he had taken the re- sponsibility of answering the letter himseif, it was nevertheless believed that he had seat the letter to the Emperor, and that his own reply was dictated by the Emperor. The vessel then awaited the answer from the other oficial, he,having written that he had sent the letter to the Emperor, and would require ten days to get an answer,.and giving much encour- agement in the tone of his comiunication. (The other magistrate had never written wiether he had or would send the letter to the Emperor.) On the 17th of May the vessel returned again into the mouth of the river, and a note was sent siylog it must be time for an answer from the Emperer, and it was desirable to receive it soon, a8 the provisions of the man-ol-war were run- ning low. The note was leit on “station isiand,” and the next day an answer was obtained, the sub- | stance of which is as follows:—That the despatch was delivered to the Emperor, and that, moreover, the magistrate of Chung Leen had already given the reply, aud had forwarded also the undelivered de- spatch of the inspector and intendant of the Hang jae district, prepared in 1866 (Commander Shufeldt, in the Wachusett, went away without seeing it), in which the burning of fhe vessel in the Pin-Yang river was*fully stated from from first to last, and hence ali knowledge of the matter given, and Coin- a aust consider himself fully en- lightened. + igh despatch had also been received by the Coreans from the Chinese government, in which the contemn- plated visit of Commander Febiger aml the Shenan- doah was stated, and assistance ordered to be given. In the Corean sovereign’s @uswer to the Chinese free he had clearly showed that’ such men ad never been held in conflnement, and this reliable reply would be placed in the hands of the American Minister at Pekin. It was quite unnecessary, therefore, for the American vessel to remain ane, ‘The in- dividual who, without foundation, told the lies or raised suspicions: concerning the remaining in confinement of the Americans has been arrested by the Intendant of the Hwang-Hal district, been ex- amined, the affair has beea brought to light and the man beheudea, = Concerning the firing into the boat, the vessel that had come into the river was-a man-of-war. The gar- rison at that place had standing orders to allow no one to pass, aud they could not disobey them. This Was the answer which came through the Chang Leen magistrate, * There 18 believed to be no doubt but the auswer was dictated by the Emperor. The firmg is coff- sidered bravado of a half civilized peopiee It is evident, surely, that the Coreans belong to the po- litico-diplomatic family, of which the Chinese are a braneh. In the last Corean communication allusion is made to the beheading of a man. This man is sdpposed by the Coreans to be the one who informed Mr. Wan-tin (the pilot of the Wachusett and also of the General Sherman) of the loss of theGeneral Sherman, and reported that four of the crew were still living. ‘This pilot iuformed our United States Consul Santord, at Chefoo, of the circumstances. and he (Consul) Sanford) informed Act Ministér Dr. Williams, Who very unwisely, in his correspondence with the ‘Chinese in regard to the matter, gave the name of the poor fellow who is now murdered. The Coreans, having received information of this man’s actions from the Chinese government, had him arrested, and the Chang Leen magistrate wrote in one ot his earlier communications that they had arrested the saan who Was the cause of the com! would bring him on board ship, and then it might be shown by conversing with him that the Americans had been greatly deceived. The next day word was sent that the Americans must go ashore to see him, and Consul Sanford and Mr. Mateer went, but they do not believe tue indi. vidual shown to them as the person who intormed of the loss of the Genoral Sherman, and neither do they believe thatthat person has been beheaded. ‘The Coreans dress singulafiy, and ail in white, and Wear a peculiar hat, both men and women.

The day was most propitious. If was hot, very hot, and as the almost vertical rays of a tropical sun scorched the venerable city of the “seven oaks,” @ vast crowd, numbering some 6,000 sooty, . Swelteriug, sweating, ignorant, fndolent, odoriferous and odd Africans, bedecked with tinsel, and brilliant with all the colors of the rainbow, strangely mingled in scarfs, sabres and middie classes as well as the poor.

Down Davie street they came into North street, up Fayetteville street, and at the Governor's: mansion they halted. Here a platform had been erected for the speakers, and on this were assembled, in imposing array, the members of tlie African Senate and House of Representatives, the executive oficers of the government, the hew Jus- tices of the Supreme Court and the District Judges, together with many others recently distinguished in the annals of the Africanization of this State, There were just seven white ladies present, and these par- ticularly attracted attention. “Who are they?’ I asked of a white “carpet-bagger” near me. To which that individual responded with a decideddiown East twang:—“Wall, I don’t zactly know, but I calculate they b’long to the families of some of tire State oficers.””. Thus much I was prepared for, and though I made several inquiries after- warda, none there were who could enabie me to give the names of the distinguished ladies to your readers. They looked quite pleased, too, as they sat in the shade and imhaled the delightful odor that ascended from the greasy, perspiring muititude, which4was slowly wafted towards them by a sluggish breeze that nautical men would term a ‘“capfuil” of wind. Fans they had, so had the ladies of the other color in the crowd; and, indegd, many of the male persuasion on the stand, of both hues, fanned themselves as if existence depended upon tt, mo- mentarily applying handkerchiefs to their streaming faces, until these ariicles‘of domestic use resembled dishcloths, and were none the better for the pecultar perfunfe instilled into them. . Wotter and hotter it became, and as Justice Pearson steod upon the stand to introduce his Excellency Governor Holden the rash crowd surged closer and closer, sweltered and sweated, until sutfocation seemed inevitable, and the atmosphere became im- pregnated with an African miasma that fatrly sick- ened many who were there to witness this horrible, disgusting scene. The Governor came forward and spoke, but I-will only give you a few extracts from his address, which was quite lengthy. He said:— FELLOw Crtizexs—The unity of government which constitutes us one people has been restored. “ihe great rebeilion is suppressed.

It declares that human slavery is ‘forever prolibited w thin this State.’ It provides that all Saat sha. be taxed “according to tts true value iu mouey " thus establishing the ouly just aystem of taxation; and for the protection of buth the poll and the lands, tt provides that for State and county urpe the potktax shall never exceed two dollars, ad. that this tax shall be “equal to the tax on property valued at three hundred doiars in cush,"’ hus balancing the land against the poll tax and preventing injustice or oppression to either. it makes the most stringent provisions for maintaining State credit. li provides lor a homestead for every head of a (a:ily, and, as far as tt was possibie to do 80, secures such homestead against ali debts or obli- gations.

Ido not inquire whether it was necessary to do this to accomplish reconstruction. It is sufficient that justice is always @ necessity in found- ing governments that are to operate upon all, and that without i no government can be expected to endure. The bailot, thus bestowed upon our re- cently enfranchised people, will remain with them.
