LIVING IN TURK.EY.
Of a.ld Eascerq customs and hub
its. It4w little is known of the in*
'uor life of the Saltan, of his ways
of living, of the li ireui as owned
by the rich pachas, and of tke dom

O wing to the nature of the insti
'tution our knowledge ol hatem
life is entirely derived from the
visits European ladies. The
Turkish authorities, it must be
confessed, are very amiable in this
{respect and little difficulty is ex
perienced when the introductions
are gifod! The Turk is fcomiAon
ly believed to be a sort of blue
beard. It is not so. Polygamy
is rot the rule, but the exception.
The lower classes neve; have more
tha.. one wife ; and it is only the
case of vvealtliy pachas that there
are three or four wives, the latter
number being ’ legally allowed to
every Mussulman according to the
“Koran-V this is exclusive of ai
most any number of slaves and
concubines. The husband must
have no pcffnainbance, however
slight, with other than
those of his gwn ’ h-ire,ip ; aipl
should he observe slippers outside
of the harem door, ho knows that
ladies are visiting, and therefore
Cannot enter his own homo. Then,
again, if perchance he strolls thr@’
the bazaar, ihere mist be no recog
nition of any of bis own women,
although they may be throwing
away his money right and left in a
most lavish way on silks and jew
els. He must not say a word, and
so strokes his beard and passes on
with an “Insliallah” (Please God),
or “Allah Kerim” (God is great
and Merciful); for now he knows
only too well how the money goes!
European ladies afe the objects of
much attention and curiosity on
the part of the women of a harem.
Their dresses are felt, they are
pawed all over, and asked childish
questions incessantly ; for it must
be remembeted that a large harem
consists of wives' and domestic
slaves, the latter counted by hun
dreds.
A young English lady,seventeen
years old, of great personal attrac
tions and engaging manners, some
time back vis’ted a harem accom
panied b* her mother and friends
The woman questioned her and
would not believe that she had
“no children, or even a husband.”

thtfre would always be the pleas

ever, of these honors caused ranch
surprise and disappointment-.

It is asked, "Well, what about mar
riage ; there must bo weddings,
wives and families •?” True ; tmt,
as in other things, they have their
own peculiar mode. Tke process
of courtship is mikeewn among
them. The matrimenial negotia
tion is Carried on by a woman of
mature ago, ot by the mothers oft
both sides, who arrange a marriage
by visiting soma desirable young
lady at the baths. They chat and
expatiate on the good look's atad

Tiie fiance never sees his wife un

a jattraants-. The lady rfftou
more fortunate as She takes c ite
to have a look at the gentleman
through the small apertures of the
lattice window, or in some other
manner, when be least expects it.
The Turkish ladies are fond of giv
ing entertainments, especially a
cake party, called “chalva,” On
arrival at the hostess’ quarters, es
corted by Slaves and eunuchs, they
salute each oilier gracefully by
touching lips and forehead. They
will then gossip quietly and com
pare notes as to their dresses, jew
els, etc. ; and if the harem be a
distinguished one, dancing girls
are hired to perforin with casta
nets aud tambourines, and thus
time is whiled away. The signal
for the “order of going” is given
by the clapping of hands and or
doling lti the ‘chalva.” which is
rich and luscious, something like
our trifllfc cake Atsomo of our
dull and dreil’y entertainments we
might well take a hint from this
Eastern lady, especially as she in
variably bids adieu to her friends
with the remark. ‘ J am so glad it’s
all ovey,” not intending to be rude
but simply congratulating herself
that the little party lute gone off
to her entire satisfaction. Humor
has it that the harem walls con
tSeal terrible secrets < that trap
doors communicate with the blue
Bosphorus ; and that mysterious
proceedings go ou under cover Of
darkness.
The euuucli in a grand person
age in the harem or palace. His
power is almost absolute. There
is no limit to his control. The
chief eunuch in a palace is styled
Kislar Agaci; he is black and
takes the position of the second
man of the empiie, ranking with
the Grand Vizier. He is captain
of the girls. If they are insubor
dinate be does not mince matters,
but chastises tuern with rods on
the bare body. Should the mat
ter, however, be a very serious
one, they are disposed of! These
black euuuchs are hideous, ungain
ly fellows, generally with short
necks and long legs they are very
lianghty aud overbearing in their
demeanor, and when escorting
their charges on excursions slath
about with their ‘courbatch’ or
whip indiscriminately, to clear
the way for their pets of the Pad
ißhah. They enjoy princely sala
ries, aud the large fortunes amass

The Sultan never marries. The
mothers of his children are styled
j Siiltauas, and have seperate estab

His Alajesty A idul Hamed has on
ly four children, all b 00*0 wife :
but even she dares not sit down
in presence of the Sultan’s mother
,but must stand before her defer
entialiy. The mother of a reign
ing Sultan—the Queen Mother or
Saltan a Valideh, as she is called—
is the first lady in the empire and
always treated wit j great ceremo
uy. She has unlimited influence.
Het position is unique, and he!'
power in the affairs of the state is
as great as that of the Grand Viz
ier hiuiself; often, indeed, the ap
pointment of the latter is to be at
tributed to her intrigue and tines
se. The Sultan Valideh is at the
bottom of ever scheme, and domi
nates her sovereign son to such an
extent that every pasha courts her
favor. A great scandal and an
amusing scene took place when
the Empress Eugene visited Con
stantinople a few years back Bo
Ing anxious to recogonize all the
kindnesses and attention paid to
her, her Majesty a s a farewell in
tervieW actually kissed theValideh
on the cheek, looking upon her In
the light of a sister sovereign.—
The Queen Mother was much ex
cited, and flaw into a towering pas
nion. Here was a direct insult
from a giaour. She took to her
bed, refused food for four and
twenty hours, and bad several
baths before she could consider
herself purged of this enormity,
this terrible stain ; and this old big
ot, probably herself botn a slave i
thought herself too good, forsooth
to be saluted by the beautiful Ell
gene, consort of one of the most
powerful emperers of the oonti
nent of Europe.
The Turkish gentleman is amia

means good manners leady mad«.

—all is at your disposal. Even
in the lowest, classes their inmate
courtesy rc'tetost reraatkable. The
Turk is much given to hospitality,
and will go to great longths; but
yet is shretved enough not to be
imposed upon, aud can show that
lie is not a rssn to be fooled.—
1 Torching‘rtiir. a story is told by
I one of the best of raconteurs, Mt.
RanlsLon. A peasant presented a
) pasha with a hare, which, in due
course was converted into soup.—
fSoon the y.easant called and wa«
well treated. A little later came
several neighbors of the man who
had givC’fi Ifre hair; they also re
ceived a ‘square’ meal. But by
and by more visitors Catfie claim
ing liosp’i’talit.y, saying that they
wi re neighbors t*f the neighbor
of the mari who had given the
hare. The pasha was no h excited,
and put hit foot down. All they
got was a glass of water each,with
the remark that it was ‘the sauco
of the sauce of the hare.”
One word about the ftlaves. Al
i though the public slave market
1 hm been abolished sinco the time
of the Crimean war and tht trade
is now contraband, the system of
providing th’em is carried on with
| the greatest ease and winked at by
the authorities. So long as there
are harems, so long must these os
tabl/sbments be supplied. The

A handsome Circassian will bring

We have always lived in a white
manse government, and when we
cannot find white men enongh
who are capable of performing the
official duties of our government,
our condition is indeed a deplofta

is lot the case, and we are satis

political purposes fer which we
have no love, and he who resorts
to such methods cannot be a

Bunt.liino, the sensational writer,

Potterlirtld shot at Judson three

Uie-fourtlrtimo, the- last bullet,,
like Jib OtheVft, going wide of the

a level with his face, and, resting*
his pistol on it took aim and fired.
The ball penetrated l’otterlield’s
brain, and he fell dead on the
ground. Then somebody found
Pottertield’s brother, put a pistol
in his hand and tH<*. him to avenge
the aViriW. He shot at Judson
twenty times Vhilo the latter was
running up the capital steps, and ,
missed every shot, t'lie mob final

over one the rafters and string
him up. Thrice ho ,vat Strung up
in succession; and cut down under

His leg was broken by the last
fall and h‘A was unconscious. Ihe
mob left bini for dead, and kind
friends look him and sueccedo I in

wards at L iu : sville, Ky., some

with, him about the a flair. He
told me that the few moments ho
