. 4 WAR IN THE COREA Important News from the Asiatic Squadron. Tho American and European Fleets it Alliance Against the Chintse. THE ALLIED BOATS FIRED UPON. Fight and the Chinese Punished. A ‘GALLANTRY OF THE FRENCH. ‘Kight-Inch Arguments of the Monocacy With the Heathen, ‘Prompt Action to Follow Failure to Open Negotiations. Wasuineron, June 16, 1871. A Cabinet meeting was held to-day, at which Secretary Robeson read a despatch from Admiral Rodgers, commanding the Aslatic squadron, and which was received this morning at the Navy Depariment via San Francisco, giving an account of a fight be- tween the Chinese on the Corean Peninsula and the combined forces of the Americans and Europeans connected with the squadrons 4n those waters. ORIGIN OF THE TROUBLE. Although the despatch has not yet been made public, it is understood ‘that Admiral Rodgers was conveying to Corea a number of Coreans, whom he had rescued from ship- wreck, intending to illustrate the friendship of civilized nations, as coutrasted with the acts of the Coreans, who, not long ago, murdered @ French crew wrecked on that coast. THE OHINESE PUNISHED. ‘The boats’ crews from the French, English, Prussian and American vessels on this mission were fired upon by the Chinese, who probably were not aware of the object of the expedi- tion, A fight ensued, in which the Chinese ‘were punished. THE CONFLIO? TO HAVE BEEN RENEWED. Admiral Rodgers intimates that the conflict would be renewed next day. Additional ParticularseAn American Expe- dition to the Corea-=A Treaty with the Natives—A Maritime Survey—Corean Bat- teries Unmasked—The Heathens Whipped— Eight-Inch Arguments—Fature Movemcuts. Wasnincton, June 16, 1871. About the Ist of the present month our Minister to China, with Admiral Rodgers, com- manding the American fleet in the East, made ‘an expedition to the Corean peninsula, lying between the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan, and inhabited by a barbarous, treacherous and warlike people entirely independent of the government of China. OBJECT OF THE EXPEDITION. This expedition was undertaken for the pur- pose of endeavoring to make a treaty with the Corean authorities for the protection of ship- wrecked sailors of civilized nations, who, when hitherto cast upon the shores of the peninsula, have been made slaves or mur- dered, or were otherwise ill-treated. The ex- pedition was also accompanied by the ships of some other of the civilized nations upon the station, including a French, and, it is be- Meved, an English and Prussian vessel. ADMIRAL RODGERS’ DESPATCH. The despatch from Admiral Rodgers, of which the following is the substance, was re- ceived at the Navy Department, and dated at Barsu, Island of Corea, June 3, and sent from Shanghae :— Oar Minister and Corean Envoys exchanged professions of amicable The Coreans made no objections to a survey of their waters, COREAN BATTERIES UNMASKED, The Monocacy, the Palos and four steam launches, under Commander Blake, sent June 1 to examine the river Sable at a point called Difficult Passage on the French chart No. 2,750, at a point where navigation was most perilous. Masked batteries, manned by several thousand Coreans, were un- masked and opened a heavy fire without warn- dng upon our people. The French ship in advance fought gallantly. THE HEATHENS DRIVEN OUT. Our vessels, bearing up, drove the enemy from their works. The tide swept all the ships past the batteries, They anchored and threw shells among the retreating enemy. EIGHT-INCH ARGUMENTS, Eight-inch shells were evidently not ex- pected. The Monocacy was slightly injured by knocking upon a sunken rock, but is now temporarily repaired. GALLANTRY OF THE SEAMEN. The vessels returning received no fire, the enemy having been driven from the forts. Our people displayed great gallantry, and only two were slightly wounded. A communication was received to-day which may open neyotiations. Otherwise, since the Coreans have met peaceful over- tures with unprovoked war, our forces will Jand, and, destroying the forts, will take such intentions. were other measures as the Interests of civilization required, Admiral Rodgers Under Fall Instructions. Wasuinaton, June 16, 1871. As Admiral Rodgers received full instruc- tions before starting on his expedition to the Corea, his despatch announcing the fight between the Coreans and the fleet of American and French vessels did not require the con- sideration of the Cabinet during its session to-day. SKTCH OF COREA. There are few places in Eastern waters more fre- quently mentioned than Corea, and it may be truly said that there are few places in the same waters 80 little known to the American public. This igno- rance of @ country which has become famous for the partiality its inhapitants display for robust and irregular maritime taxation is due mainly to the rigid exclusion of foreigners, save as slaves, Who can get little or no information of the country. Corea is large peninsula in Northeastern Asia, bounded on the east by the Sea of Japan, on the south by the Strait of Corea and on the west by the Yellow Sea and the Gulf of Leao Fong. It is oalied Teyosten by the Chinese, to whom it is tributary, Kao-be and by the Japanese Koart, from which it derives the name of Corea. The length of the pe- ninsula is about 600 miles, and the width leas than 149, and comprise about 80,000 square miles, The capital, Kingkitas, 1s situated in the centre of the peninsula, on the banks of the river Kiang. The entire length of the country is traversed by a moun- tain range which forms @ gentle slope on the west and rises abruptly and precipitately on the west The coast {s about as treacherous as the Coreans themselves, being for the most part so rocky as to be practically inaccessible, al- though there are a tew good barbors. ‘The climate of Corea is very cold in winter, while in summer rain falls so abundantly that the great variety of fruits which grow on the peninsula yearly became so soaked that their flavor is ren- dered insipid. But, notwithstanding the usual severity of the seasons, the soll of Corea 1s rich and productive, and barley, wheat, cotton, rice, millet, &c., are grown extensively and in great quantities, Frutt trees also flourish with tropical luxuriance, The mineral wealth of the countay has scarcely been attended to, although gold, silver, copper, iron, coat, &c., are found there, The domestic animals are oxen, pigs, goats, dogs and cats, and a small race of horses called mon-k-neat, famous for their strength and spirit. It is said that there is a royal prohibition against the rearing of sheep, and conse- quently that animal is almost unknown to the Coaars. The royal tiger and the panther are monarchs of the wild bersts in the peninsula and so numevous are they that the traffic in their skins form an important branch in their commerce with foreign nations. The manufactures comprise cloths, silk, pottery and arms, the latter being the best made. The Corean sabres and daggers are munch sought for oy the Chinese because of the ex- quisite manner in which they are made. The foreign commerce is trifling, and is confined mainly to China and Japan, Corea is almost an independent kingdom, and is governed by a king who pays tribute the Uncle of the Moon, the Emperor of China, Its inhabitants ave said to de far superior to the Chinese in mental ana physical resources, The governmeut con- sists. of a king, whose ministry is dl- vided into five departments, which form the centre of all civil and military authority. His Majesty’s power is,held sacred and inviolabie from tne union in his own person of the hierarchal and secular sovereignty. He divides his government into circles or provinces, each under the rule of special governors, all appointed by the King, to whom they are responsible. The revenue of the Corean monarch are immense and are derived mainly from the letting out of land and a tithe of produce. As in China, re- gion is a@ secondary consideration, ‘The prevailing beltef is in Boodhtsm, which was introduced about the year 872, but there appears to be another re- ligion—evidentiy the original faith of the people— aud the doctrins oi Corpicious gre held in high es- teem. The genuine Corean language is scarcely Roman, as it has become hopelessly corrupted by the intro- duction of numerous Chinese words, the higher classes using the Chinese language in all cases. About the year 1120 Corea was conquered by the Tartars; in 1692 and 1698 by the Japan- ese, who were unable to retain it and it fell under the sway of China, and we have already intimatee the people engage largely in piracy, and numbers of them are yearly caught while at work in thelr pirate junks. Their treat- ment of all foreigners who fall into their hanas is most brutal, and it was because of their inhumanity that the expedition under the command of Admirat Rodgers was sent to Eastern waters. CLEMENT L. VALLANDIGHAM SHOT. Paicfal Acciéent to Mr. Valirndigham—He Accidentally Shoots Himwelf. Dayton, Ohio, June 16, 1871. The Hon. C. L. Vallandigham accidentally shot himself to-day at Lebanon, where he was in attend- ance at court defending one McGehan, charged with murde® Mr. Vallandigham, in attempting to explain the character of the shot alleged to have been fired by McGehan, held a pistol in the same position, when its contents were accidentally dis- charged, the ball lodging in the abdomen. The ex- tent of the wound cannot be definitely ascertained to-night. Physicians from this city have been sum- moned, and are now on their way to Lebanon. Additional Particulars. Later despatches from Lebanon say Mr. Vallan- digham was vomiting, which was regarded as an unfavorable symptom, and one of his physicians sald there were indications of an internal hemor- rhage. ‘The doctors ceased their fruitless search for the ball avout an hour after the accident. They then closed the wound and placed the patient on iis right side. He was calm and col- lected. It appears that no one was present with Vallandigham when the accident occurred but ex- Lieutenant Governor McBurney, who has_ been associated with him in the defence of McGe- han, McBurney had expressed some doubt as to the theory that Myers had shot himself. Vallan- ligham picked up a pistol from the table, saying he would show him in half a second, Two pistols were on the table, one unloaded, and he by mistake took up the loaded one, put it m his pocket and withdrew it, keeping the muzzle next his ody, Just as it was leaving his pockes it was discharged, tt 1s reported, at nearly the same part of the body where Myers was shot. He at once ejacuia' “Oh, mur- der! and said he hoa taken’ the ‘wrong pistol. While the examination was going on he watcned the surgeons with eager eyes, and even assisted them in searching for the talk The ball appears to have taken a downward course in the direction of the bladder. A later despatch says that the symptoms are growing more unfavorable. His pulse got above 100. The surgeons do not appear to be hopeful al- thongh they are reticent. Still later advices state that his hands and feet are growing cold. He vomits often, but throws up no blood. The physicians say he 13 sinking fast. His pulse is ristim. WEA THER REPORT. ,.

The Journal this evening says @ new and vere interesting development has recently come to light in the matter of Bishop Whitehouse and Rec tor Cheney.
