For several years past the Russians had made such continuous progress in Tartary as greatly alarmed the Corean government for its own independence. Annexation followed annexation, until the Russians were very near the western frontiers of Corea, and touched upon the littele river which forms the boundary of the province of Ham-Kieng. In January 1866, a Russian vessel entered the port of Ouen-San, on the Sea of Japan, and dispatched the Corean Government a peremptory letter demanding that its ports be open to Russian vessels, and that Russian merchants be allowed to establish themselves in the country.
