Sweet Koreans.

Mrs. Ye Sang Jay and Mrs. Kong Sin He, the ladies of the Korean legation at Washington, have made a good impression upon society at the capital. The former is twenty-four years old,' the latter nineteen. They are pretty, petite, and do'not look as though they had seen more than sixteen summers. They are not over four feet six' inches in height.. They have picked up about twenty phrases of English, and their pronunciation of our language is charmingly peculiar. They are studying hard and hope to master our vernacular in a short time. Their faces are pale brown in color, their hair is jet black, and their featuresiaredelicate and pleasing. They dress becomingly. f
