The object of Chian in thus, reviving re- collections which, if the tranquility of the country is dorired, had better have remain- ed in oblivion, is not known; but the impression seems to be that as Dai In Kun's son is now essentially China in theuglit and education, his influenos over brother the King wil be exerted to promote the Chinese cause and to thwart the Japanesu. Another belief is, that dislike of the Russians prompts the Chinese to send a man of same influence to Corea to keep alive the spirit of animosity against everything done, or proposed to be done,. by Russians in Cores.
