TURKISH LITERATURE.
11 The Turks are an ignoiant and stupid race,” is
the general exclamation, and it i9 the exclamation of
general ignorance. Let us examine tho subject. In
the year 1*81, tho Abbo Tnderini went to Constanti
nople in tho suite of tho Venetian Envoy, Garzoni.
He resided thoio sixyeais, and devoted hi* time to
tlie examination of Turkish literature. On hit return
to Vonice, iio published a work, in three volumes,
wholly devotod to thi9 rheme. In thi9 work he expo
ses tho vulgar error, that Mahomet interdicted an ac
quaintance with the Sciences, be asserts, in the most
E ositive language, that tho Turks have a thirst for
nowledge, and that cultivated talents are certain of
promotion und success. A star back ox the time of
Mahomet ll a Library was founded oi Constantino
ple, over tho door of which was an inscription, trans
lated thus: “ They study uf the sciences is a divine
command to Mussulmans ’’Thissame Mahomet found
ed two Academics Bnjazet It, Selim, Solyman the
Magnificent,.‘ichmet, Usman and Mustapha, were all
patrons of learning and founders of literary institu
tions In the years 1488, a priming pteea was estab
lished at Constantinople, by the Jews—at the begin
ning of the last century, one was established by tho
Armenians—and in the year 172G a Turkish press was
set up, which was kept in operation for several years.
In 1784, the Sultan AbduLi-liammid established a
press, nnd several books were printed in. very hand
some stylo. Mustapha lit. had MothiateVs works
translated into Turkish, and his successor. Aihmit IV.
ordered a translation of the French Encyclopaedia,
and founded n military school in seventeen hundred
and sevonty-fivc. He died seventeen hundred and
eighty-nine.
The Turkish ethics are all founded on the Koran,
and vast numbers of books have been written on tho
subject The Greek aud Roman philosophers and
moralists have been translated into Arabic. The etu-
dy of rehetoric is cultivated with froml iasiduitv Jn
arithmetic, tho Turks surpass all other men ; in ge
ometry they are adepts. They have translation* of
Aristotle and of Pliny : SidenJiam has been transla
ted into Arabic, and Boerhate into Turkish ; chemis
try und asuonomy are favorite studies with them
and yet we talk of the baxba/ous ignorance of th*
Turks .' Shame upon our own !

THE BARBACUES.
Somethin* has already be<»n said on the subject of
these fancy feasts, but we think it neither obstrusivo
nor superfluous to make a few additional remarks.
We think it nil important to make every manly ex-
ortion to strengthen the harriers which are tu with
stand and keep off from us this desolating tide of mor
al devastation.—We consider these barriers to be tho
vigorous, fearless and (inlightaned exercise and influ
ence of public opinion. Ours is strictly a government
of public opinion, with liberty which admits of being
pushed to Hcentiousnoss, at the samo time that proper
care and vigilance may restrain it within the whole
some limits of rational and happy freedom. The ob
jections toBarbacues,and the whole system of barbe
cue politics, arc numberless. We will content our
selves with noticing a few of the most prominent.
The pecuniary sacrifices, which are annually offered
up at these shrines of gluttony, end debauchery, are
immense. They arc made so much, in detail, and
by individuals, that the grand sum lota! is effectually
hidden from public view But if it were attempted
to raise, by the direct and compulsory lovy of a tax, p
sum any thing like that which is thus voluntarily ami
recklessly squandered, vve should bear the cry of op
pression and extortion, rung in tones of fury, from orre
end of the countiy tothe other. AmJ yet not ono
solitary object, either of public or private profit, is
promoted by these prodigal outpourings of time and
treasure. On the contrary both public and private
interests are totally surrendered, and irrecoverably
swallowed up.
The time and monoy that are thus abandoned to
tho wildest wastefulness—though the formeris actual
ly inestimable, and above all price—for no money nor
industry can redeem its lo6s--and the latter cannot
easily be computed—yet are they dross indeed when
wo consider the injury, the utter ruin, which is inflic
ted upon health and morals. How many constitu
tions of our fellow-beings are there now shattered and
shipwrecked—driven helpless and nerveless before
tho slightest blasts, which were once both strong and
staunch—fully adequate to endure all neccssar, ex
posure, and to carry their possossois in health ant)
happiness to a good old age ; and which encountered
their first and fatal gales in the stormy sea of berba-
cuo politics. It is infinitely better to be dead than dy
ing It is better for any human being to be /caigned
to his kindred earth, nnd mingle once more with tho
clods of the valley, than to bo gasping for painful
breath with a constitution irreparably shattered.
Death, as far as tbe body i9 concerned, is nothing but
an abstoncc of feeling, and who will say that immedi
ate death is not preferable to a life of contindtl pain
and suffering ? Then the effect of this exposure to a
feverish sun—rf gorging upon raw shot#, and of swil
ling a specios of liquor little loss pernicious than liquid
fire is worse than actual and immediate death.
In some instances of fire proof aud case hardened
stomachs, rhoso awful consequiliccs do not bo surely
and invariably follow upon thwe acta of suicidal in
dulgence. But these instnncoB are bo rare that they
should serve as'warnings to deter, instead of exam
ples to encourage. It is an experiment which can be
tiled but once—if it fails, the crucible is broken
The moral death which retulta from a regular at
tendance upon these harbacuos, is no less certain and
awlul than that which merely takes the animal life of
the victim. And happy would it be if it only invol
ved trio happiness of the individual Buffercr. But it
is not so. All the domestic nnd social relations are
affected In some iustanoes the whole community
feels the pang, and writhes in sympathetic agony.
Surely considerations such as these, crudely and tm-
perfoetly, but not erroneously, as they may have beon
presented, ought to make reasoning and reflecting men
hesitate und ponder. Patriotism should shrink back,
and social and domestic love should fly in terror from
tho brink of this awful gulf.
