We are pleased to see this—lum ber being a staple article of export, and derives it value solely from the materials and labor of the Province and its inhabit aDjl*js pleasing to observe also, that the pod effects arising from our Fish bounty are becomeing yearly more and jnore apparent. Upwards of sixty vessels jgve cLaied out during tbe present season, from this port, for the deep sea fishing.— be trust those interested in th:s branch of trade, will watch over its concerns with more than ordinary solicitude, for the pur pose of piocuringnot only a sufficient sup ply of this important article, tor exporta tion, but with the view also of improving id quality,so that an opportunity may be ai- Lriied to our mercantile speculators of ex tending their trade to markets from which they have, from the inferior quality of our Fish, been as yet excluded. The benefits arising from exertions of this kind, have al ready been sensibly felt by the inhabitants dour sister Province—let us follow their example. The Turks.— The Turkish ladies are mustbarbariously litate; the fair creatures are prisoners and slaves, and are tied up is a bag and thrown into the sea, whenev w their lords and masters happen to be out #fhumor. Thus does ignorance ‘xclaini, and her sister Credulity repeats the cry. Now let us look a little at the education and treatment of Turkish women. Id the families of rank, great pains are taken with female education ; the Turkish and Arabian languages are constantly stu died,and precepts of virtue, of chastity, of gentleness of demeanor and polish of man* neis,is short of all that is or ought to he the ornament of woman, are inculcated with he greatest care and assiduity. Sir James Porter, a former British ambassador to the Pirte, who resided there twenty years, says that the decency, the modesty and the po liteuess of the Turkish ladies are uuequal- Ifd. Tiiey are treated with a respect bor dering on indolatry ; their health, their *fc]|.ire and their happiness, are the con stant study of the barbarous Turk. The parental affection of the Turk is very strong, and his children are remarkable for <htiful and obedient behavior, for modesty Jtithe presence of superiors, and for ex treme veneration towards old age. The nature of the Turk is high-spirited, suscep- Itble,impetuous, and unequalled in their amiable discharge of the duties of hospitality ‘■tth them a stranger is a sacred character. James Porter, says that in the villages w hich are inhabited exclusively ny Turks, ‘‘running, roguery and deceit,are unknown;’ that highway robberies, burglaries and stea ling, are not heard of, that in war as well USJn peace, the roads are as secure as the houses. 1 and undying revenge, are their n ‘ osl striking attributes—time never lulls ‘heir memory of insult aid injury They bate been known to come fiom the fron ; - ,s °* Persia into Asia Minor, to revenge death of a grandfather, many years af cr commission of the offence. The | re nt bequeaths to the son the task of a • Dging his offended honor, and it is never fleeted. Civilized men gamble—the Turks detest ne practice. Civilized men are uncom ®ony lenient to habitual liars; the ‘lurks c utd drive them from their presence. — ~J v, ‘‘*ed men cheat each other daily; the l* r - are too proud to be dishonest. gQ , Ll us he just, and while we lament that lk J Vt, y a kmd as Turkey should he ovti> f ‘ u ed by a religion which comelh not - 0 ° j h h° v e, let us not shut our eyes to the f : k tiiat are mingled with errfir, dark passions.

It is the production ol Mrs. Stebbins, of Boston, a latly favourably known by several publications of much merit EFFECTS OF SUDDEN FRIGHT. PLAIN FACTS. 4 Her color changed, her face was not the same, And hollow groans from her deep spirit came.’ , Dryden. Few things can be more cruel, or attend ed with more fatal consequences, than that of trilliiig with the fears of timid persons. There are on record many instances of men whose courage had been tried in the field of battle, yet have yielded to the great est terror in consequence of some silly prank being played upon them—such as a prophetic and dismal sentence being wi;t ten on the walls ot their apartment with phosphorus, which is not to be seen till the candle is extinguished 1 have been led to make these remarks from hearing a much beloved friend relate how severely she had suffered in consequence of a foolery of this kind sometime since. This lady from a naturally delicate constitution and a highly nervous temperament, is at all times an im proper person on whom to try one of these very witty experiments ; and the state ot her heahh, at the period to which I allude, ought to have pi elected her from every alarm of the kind. She vvas busy in her apartment and did not hear approaching footsteps, which were however sufficiently guarded ; and opening the door suddenly to descend to the parlor, an object present ed itself to her terrified gaze so horrible, that retreating to her bed room she fainted away. On her recovery, she found her self supported in the trembling arms of a youth, her brother ; she closed her eyes, fearing to encounter the shocking spectacle again—when, with many expressions of re gret, he assured her that he had been the cause of her alarm. That seeing a mon strous looking mask in a shop window, he had purchased it and coming home put it on, and stole softly to the door of her apar ment, 4 just to startle her a little , to use his own words ; but without tlie most remote intention or belief that it would alarm he so seriously. The vouth bought a lesson from experience that he will probably not speedily forget, since the life of an amiable and beloved sister vvas for a long time desr paired of; nor can he recollect the circum stance now, without shuddering at tbe idea of how fatal the consequences might have been This conversation with my friend Eliza, brought to my remembrance a circumstance which I also know to he a fact, as it was related by a lady of undoubted veracity, who vvas on the spot when the affair occur red. and may servo as a warning to those who are find of a comedy which too often turns out a tragedy. In the town es Hampton, in the county of Middlesex, England, a spot celebrated ou account of the stately palace erected there by the rmguificeut Cardinal VVool sey, vv is kept some years since a young la dies’ boarding school A miss Courtenay, the only child of immensely wealthy pa rents in the county of Hampshire, was one of the scholars To prevent her suffering through life from the morbid cowardice to which from nature and education the softer sex are much prone her parents and teachcis had taken unwearied pains not only to brace her mind against the terrors of imagination, but of those terrifying real ities that flesh is heir to. They succeed ed effectually, little dreaming, poor vve;ik sighted mortals as vve are, that this very acquirement would one day prove fatal to her. Matilda Courtenay was about sixteen, amiable, accomplished and as lovely in her person as the fabled Ilouri. Her dis position was gay as that of the lark—all bouyancy and life. It was not long ere the young ladies in the school discerned this trait of fearlessness in her character —lor Matilda had been so praised by her dealing parents f r its possession, that she lost no opportunity of displaying it on every possi ble occasion. Many were the tricks re sorted to by her companions with the idea of friglitiiing her: such as starting upon her from a place of concealment —making i figures, with vile physiognomies painted upon them, and placing them in her bed— perhaps a mischievous one, concealed be i ueath the bedstead, would seize her loot as she was stepping inio it. At other times, : Dolly the maid would he hired to get upon the roof and throw brick-bats dowai the chimney of her apartment. But all was vain—her listening tormentors heard no sound save that of a chuckle or a burst ol ; joyous laughter. Almost wearied with the continual failure of their experimenss they at length hit upon an expedient to frighten the innocent girl by a coup dt main. Miss Courtenay had been to visit her parents, hut was expected at Hampton that night.— 1 A student of medicine in ihe neighbor i hood, who was fond of one of these board j ing school romps, was prevailed upon to bring secretly in the evening a skeleton to the school. The hope of at length light ening Miss Courtenay weakened their own fears in handling this otherwise appalling subject. They fastened it to the tester | withing the curtains at the foot of the bed, so as to conceal it effectually from her ob servation; hut w ith the con /iction that the moment the bed should he >haken by her getting into it, the figure would lull upon her. I Matilda did not reach Hampton sill bed time, hut in more than usual gay spirits re i tired to her apartment, saying to her loved hut mischiev< us companions, ‘Good night, dear girls, good night; I have got hack, and to-morrow we shall have a fine gale of romps good night, and with a hound she was out ol sight. There was a cause, nay two of them, for Matilda’s heightened spirits. Henry Mel* moth, the companion ol her childhood and her beau ideal of all that was porlect in mankind, had brought her to Hampton in his Phatton and four, and had whispered something agreeable in her ear—hnd man bad 4 looked unutterable things.*—Besides, Matilda vvas by nature benevolent, and her parents, aware that she would make no ill use of it, had given her a plentiful supply of pocket money—and that she might build castles in the moon, think of Henry undisturbed, and in her mind’s eye, dis pose of her wealth on the morrow, she re tired to her chamber. With this sweetest and most delightful feeling of humanity, the desire of perform ing kind actions, Matilda, after praying as fervently as a girl of sixteen could be ex pected to pray, jumped into bed, where we will leave her for the night. Early on the following morning those who had been particularly busy in this cru el affair were astir to see its effects, and repaired in a body to Miss Courtenay’s a partment with the expectation of hearing the joyus burst of metriment; but imagine their surprise and horror of finding the sweet girl, doubtless in the position she had first lain down in, with her eyes fixed and rolled up in their sockets—the white ‘roth foaming from her palft mouth, her nostrils fearfully distended, and showing every appearance of approaching dissolu tion—the forefinger and thumb of her right: hand held a shred or fibre which adhered ; to the skeleton, whose fleshless arm had j fallen across her, and its eyeless skull rested ; on the same pillow with tliai of the late j blooming girl. Medical assistance vvas called, but alas! too late—her extremeties were cold. The physician pronounced that she had fallen r repeated convul sions from affright, an, 4 there was no rein- . edy. In a few minutes life ebbed pulse away, and the angel spirit of the lovely but ill fated Matilda fled forever! Lay her i’ the earth And from her fair and unpolluted flesh, May violets spring!’ E. H. S. COMMERCIAL. EXPORTS Cleared at the Custom House, at Charleston, July 22. Ship Octavia, Liverpool—42 bales Sea Islands, 1230 do Upland Cotton. Charleston, July 21.—The usual depression of business at this season, together with the gen eral prevalence of the Denguo Fever, has nearly put a stop to business of all descriptions during the week. Many stores and counting houses have been closed, in consequence of all attached to them being sick In Cottons , a few sales of Uplands have been effected, principally of the lower qualities, at 101 cents. We do not vary our general quotations of this staple, as the primest is still held at 12 cents. We hear of no transact ions In Sea Islands , ty-c. Rice. —No variation in prices, and very limited sales Flour. —Several sales have been effected at ss£, principally for town use —vve repeat the general last week, a s^. Corn. —There have been two cargoes sold since our last report, at 50 cents.— Oats are held and would command above our last quotations. We now put them down at 20 a 30 cents; and a prime lot would, perhaps, bring a little over the highest rate. Naval Stores. —Some article* are selling in small lots above the prices quoted—but by the quantity they would not command more. Groceries , —The business is at present con fined to the town trade, and that very limited. A few hhds. of Sugars have gone oft'at rates corre sponding with our quotations. Two lots of New Orleans Whiskey, brought by late arrivals, have sold from the wharf at from 24 to 25 cents. Freights. —There was but one ship taking in on Saturday for Liverpool, the Octavia —the Sarah Shrafe lias not commenced loading, although sho is advertised for the same same port From 3-dths to l-2d per lb. for Cotton, we believe, are the go ing rates. No vessel up for any other port in Eu rope. Coastwise Freights are from 62 1-2 cents to $1 per bag for Cotton and 50 to 75 cents per tierce for Rice.
