Solemn Ceremonies and Magnificent Surroundings—His Opinion of Men ang Affairs—The Crown Prince ana His Appearance. Carp's Letter. [Copyrighted 1888 by Frank G. Carpenter.] Seour, Korea, Dec. 10.—[Special Cor- respondence of Tux Ber.]—Just 100 year before Columbus discovered America, gener- ations vefore Shakespeare was born, more than two hundred years bofore Luther stirred up Germany with his preaching, 100 years before the first Bible was printed, when ail England was sleeping on straw, and when pius had yet to be known, the present dyuasty sat upon its imperial throne and governed its cream-faced, almond-cyed subjects. The blood that flows in the veins of Li-Hi, the present king uf Korea, is of the same continuous royal stream which k flowed over the Korean throne since 1302 During that time twenty-nine kings have reigned and the power of each has been more despotic than that of the czar of Russia. The royal blood has not weakened in its flowing, and his majesty of to-day has tho Dest qualities of his ancestors and is one of the most progressive of the Asiatic rulers, AN AUDIENCE, 1had an audience and an interview with him to-day. It was at the royal palace, and I was presented by our minister, Mr. Hugh A Dinsmore, We rode to the palace in state, Our conveyances were two Sedan chair, each borne by eight big-hatted Korean coolies, and the whole escorted by twelvo of the king’s soldiers, Winding our way through the narrow streets of the cap- ital ‘we were ¢ ed out iuto the broaud avenue leads to the palace, and which runs through Seoul from one end of it to the other, dividing it almost in halv of white-clad, almond-eyed, men squattmg on the streets stoj smoking as we passed. Women with green cloaks thrown over their heads s along to get out of the way, and a noble or two propped upon his hqrse by his feudal retainers, told the groom leading the beast to halt, and did us silent honor as we went by. We stopped a moment by the two mammoth stone lions, which, on pedestals perhaps twenty feet high, guard the front eutrance to the palace enclosure. Ana vur keso s all the while yelling out in Koreau to the people on the streets: ot out of the way, you villains, YOu see tnese great men coming (" THE PAL At least this was Minister Dinsmore's translation of the cry and it was from him that Ilearned that the admiring words of *iyang ban | yang ban ! uttered by the men @ thoy ran signified that they considercd us as belonging to the nobility, We were told that we would be received at the other gate of the palace, and our escort carried us by what scemed to me more than a mile of paluce wall. The palaces of the king of orea, in which he has now his residence, cover as much ground as a good sized farm, They comprise about one hundred and sixty acres and @ bigh, well-built wall of stoue tiled with blue Korean tillug shuts them out from ordinary gaze. The gates 1o this wall are of fine masonry. ey have roofs large enough to cover a 'om{ymed vottage, #ud upon these ‘are figures of Korean gods, or of sacred animals. Each great stone Don't He did this when bearing aletter from President Cleveland to the kmg of Korea, aud was thus accorded un honor which in his eapacity as minister he could not have. tral gate. ITS PURNITURE, Leaving our chairs and our soldiers at the outside, for no ome rides into the palace grounds, we were ushered to-day _past the gorgeous royal guards, and escorfed by the two greatest generals in the Korean army, were taken into what might be called the hall of foreign entertainment. 1t was a long, one-story, tiled building with great overhang- ing roof upheld by massive beams, which showed in all the natural beauty of the wood. A brussels carpet covered the' floor, tables like those you eat from at home wero in the center of the hall, and upon these were plates of cales, which might have been made in an American baker shop, and ranged around the table were classes of cham- pagne. Here I was introduced to the king’s prime mimsters, and 1 drank wine and clinked glasscs with the s of state and the gerrals of the Kore ny. 1 taliked with them through our interpreter, who, by the way, was one of the best in Korea, T found them both intelligent and polite. HOW THEY DRESS, They were all elad in_their court dresses and the head of each showed a top-knot, shining through its fine Korean cap of horse hair, with great wings flapping out at the 25, They had gowns of fine materials of ous colors which fell from the neck fect and their feet were shod with great Korean boots which made each look us though he had the gout and had wrapped up bis feet for the occasion. The most striking feature of their costume was a StfT hoop-like belt which ran around the body just below the arm pits and_which was 50 big that it came out about six inches from the dress. Thoy werc about three inches wide and they were plated with & great num- ber of small squares fastened by joints. On some of the belts these squaves were of gold, on others they were of silver and on others they were of green jade or other precious stones. Kach quality had its signlficance . Ho, the American_interpretor, who of noble blood, had one of these cour't em blems about b Another ¢ I was the button behind the right ear which tencd on the hats of the ministers. Phis was of gold in some cases, and I noted also that cach of these royal dignitaries had a large siece of embroidery ubout as large as a lady ace handkerchief sewed to the front and back of his gown. These squares rested be- tween the shoulders and upon the breast and the figures upon them where tigers, in the case of military officers, and storks, in case of the high civil officials and ministers of state. The hats were especially fine, and as we sipped our chumpagne, 1 was told_that the big flapping wings at the back of them, which look like ears, represent the quick re- ceipt of the orders of the king and the desire of the owners to fly in response to them, As for the minister and myself, we were of course in full evening dress, and I had a geutle hint before we went to the king thut T must remove my eyeglasses, as spectacles are in Korea an emblem of rank, and no one presumes to ran k before the king, INTO THE ROYAL PRESENCE Our audience had been fixed for 4 o'clock iu the afternoon, an especially early hour, on account of a stross of business und of my desire to depart for China on the morrow. The business duy of the king of Korea is, to use an_Irish expression, at night. He be- gins his work at 8 o'clock in the afternoon and closes ut about 8 in the morning, His most important consultations are now held under the rays of the electric light, and his hours are practically the same as those of a hard-working newspaper man. It was promptly at4 that our procession walked outof the foreign hall and with measured tread and sober faces solemnly moved on towards the audience chamber of the king. The royal palace is a labyrinth of passages and massive one-story buildings. We walked through long passage ways, walled with stone, by red-capped, red-gowned servants, past soldiers in gorgeous uniforms and on to the gate of a large court yard. As we neared this, the yellow faces of the ministers grew more solemu; their heads were bent over and their eves were cast upon the ground. We had taken off our hats and walked be- Kate has three entrances, and the central one 18 nover used, except by the king himself or by the fepresentative of royalty. Minister Dinsmore is perbaps the only American who has ever gone through the great frout ceu- hind. We thus passed through the gate and stood in the presence of the king. A SOLEMN PROCESSION, We were still, nowever, in the open air, The king was in his audience chamber acros the court. Tt was'a low room, perhaps fifty fect long, raised about five fect above the ground and reached by three flichts of steps. It was open at the front and was not more than twenty-five feet deep. At the back of this room _and in the center, in frontof a nand behind a small table, his royal s The ministers preceded us, sing lower and lower: walked up the loft steps until_they reached the floor of the room, when they got down on all fours and bobbed their black-winged heads inst the matting, They then took their ion ou cach side of “the king, holding their heads bent over, for it is against th law to look upon the faco of the king, and during the whole of our interview th noble ministers r ed the king, and in the writing of his name & stroke had to be omitted out of re- to his majesty. Minister Dinsmore followed the Korean ofiicers and I walked directly behind. As we mounted the steps we solnnly bent o and bowed to the king. We walked ten steps across the floor, then bowed again and then on until we stood dircctly in front of and not more than three feet uway f majesty, and here we made_our thir last bow. As we talked we did not bend our heads like the Koreans, but looked straight into roy: eyes, smilo answering smile and a Korean laugh now and: then coming from his majesty upon hearing some of our sentiments which were especially pleasing to him. ‘'he conversation was carried on by means of rpreter, Mr. Ho, who bent himself vi of o right angle and thus bending, in low tones translatéd the words ich went back and forth in the two lan guages during our half hour AN IMPRESSIVE SCENE, The scene was an impressive one and thouzhts of the pastagd the present crowded theniselves fast upon one ar heels in our minds as we glanced vight and left of tho king stood € d General Ye,each with a great swi still sheathed in his arms, and behind th table and pn each side of his majesty, hold- ing him, us it were, by the arms, were two duil-eyed, stolid-faced, black-gowned, flap. hatted eunict These men said nothing during our v hey are, I am told, among the advisors of the king and are him in accordance with a custom w comes down from the Asiatic past. They are 4 part of the century gone by, and as I looked at them my eye caught the' Edison cle light globcs hianging overhead und the k cloth upon the table bencath. It was the civ ilization of the west and the cast coming to gether, and 1 wondered whether the M 1an and the Christian would not soon be kiss ing each other, 1 wondered the more, as in low tones I talked with th most progressive Korean in Korea, and heard him ask questions which showed that he knew that a big world existed out side his own, and which evidenced & desire to know the best that was in it. IS MAJESTY. But let me tell you how the king looked, He is a man that would attract attention anywhere; not over five fect high. He weighs perhaps one hundred and twenty pounds and his bright, black almond cyes sparkle with intellig He has, like ufost Koreans, a very thin mustache and strag gling chin whiskers of black. He has a pleasaut smile, good, well kept features, and his face is oval and the color of a rich Jérsoy cream. His hands are very small and delt cate und he has no pompous. airs about him. His hair was combed in a Korean top-knot aud upon s head was the royal cap of dark blue color, This was of open work and 1 did not noticd that it had the butterfly flaps of his ministers, His costume was a gown of brilliant red or scarlet satin which same up close around the neck and which bore upon the breasts a square of em broidery, i gold, of he royal dragon. ' He stood easily during the talk and he did not look to be over thirty-two years of age, though 1 am told he is thirty-six. He tolked in a simple manner, in ohe of the sweetest voices I have ever Lieard. His tones were low, but impressive, and I could see from the expressions which came and went across his countenance, and from the an- swers which he made, that he is indeed the king of Korea, and that he is 8 man of more than ordinary ability. HE LIKES AMERICANS, Our minister introduced me and the king replied that he was glad Lo see me in Chosen, which s the Korean name for this country sud which means the land of *‘morniug calw.” He asked we how long I would stay, which routo 1 had come, and was anxious to know the names of the, dountries I expected to visit. He complimented-me by saying that he knew 1 was a writer for the newspapers, and had learned that my wife was with me, for he ked, she' well and pleased with his y r, and he asked as to the t Clevetand and whether scen the president lateiy Ireplied that 1 had been‘at the executive palace shortly before Flaft, that our ruler was well and robust, and that in the grand room of his palace I saw the minister from Chosen, whom the president delighted to honor. As the king heard this, he smiled, and 1 told him that Pak Chung Yang and his suite were thought much of at our capital and that the Americans-and their president hoped that the relations between them and Chosen would grow betterand better. The king replied that this was also his hope. He liked the Americans and the peo- ple of his country liked them. H pleased with tueir action tow:rd his aud the relations between the two countries hud been strengthened smee the president had sent out such an able man as Mr. Dins- more to be his representuty At this Minister Dinsmore bowed and the the king went on to pa high compliment to his ability and to his worlk in" Korea and asied me o thank the president for sending him thither. 1 replied that our president was well aware of Mr. Dinsmore’s abilities—that he looked upon him as one of his ablest ofticials, and it was for this reason that he sent him to Chosen. A WRITER APPRECIATED, The king appreciated this compliment and bowed. Newspapers were then referred to and the king said that he was glad that o writer had come o his count id then o number of international cdu nts were passed in which Minister Dinsmore paid an exeellent tribute to the king, ng him- self an accomplished diplomat. The king hud said that America was rich but that Chosen was poor, when the minister replied that he thought Korea a fine country and it had all the clements of great g . He had no doubt if the king would rule it and should live to carry out his ideas, it would at sometime be rich ‘and gre The king, towards the close of the aud told me that he had fixed the time for - ing me on the morrow, but upon learning that I was anxious to g5 in the morning had chunged the time to to-day. In an Asiatic country where u king's mind is supposed to never ¢t L and where such a concession would never he granted to o Korean, 1 ap- preciated the compliment conveyed in- these words. After thanking the king for the audicnice we backed out, bowing three tim it the same positions as at our en- nce. We backed down the steps and ain bowed, aud then with dignified tread usnered out of his majesty’s prescuce. THE SUMMEK HOUSE, We next took a walk through the palaces, going by buildings which looked like Ja 260 temples and the outside of whic ated with gs. vidl ¢ ompanicd us, euch one of the ministers @ving two serviuts 1o hold up nis ar alked, We were taken to the cont. autiful little lake ‘over rustic bridg where the king has a pagoda-like sumn house and where the queen and her ladies come and smoke on & hot summer evening.

His face had not the strength of the king's und as yet the young man Lusé hardly shown, I am told, the ability of his father. Ourinter- view was rather tame. The crown prince asked after the presilem and expressed o kindly feeling for our cauntry, and the audi- ence lasted but a few moments, We did not see the queen; but I doubt not she saw us, for | aw told she often sits be- hind the screens in his majesty’'s councils and views the procgedimgs through the cracks.

She belongs to one of tho reatest families of the country, and it is an open sceret that she has at times her voice in the councils of the king. She is one year older than the king and is said to be a very Dbright woman. She has an establishment of her own inside these palace grounds, and the lang, rown prince and the queen bave each their separate household: Queen is nev seen by men, but she several hundred court ladies ‘about her, and there are a number of cunichs among the regularly appointed oficers of the cou The queen dresses, of course, in Korean cos- tume.

The king of Korca has but one gueen and he has only one lawiul wife. Ilis score and « half of concubines, which he supports, are kopt, I am told, in another part of the city.
