The exhibition now open of the productions of the Russian ma nufactories continue to attract a very great number of spectators, who cannot find terms to express their surprise at the improve ments that have been made in some branches. Some days ago, when the admission was by tickets only, there were 4,057 visitors. On three other days, when the admission was open to the public in general, the number of visitors was 5,922, 10,433, and 9,786. liainburgk Papers, June 30. Borsen Hale, Four o'Clock.

Letters from Portsmouth state, that two boats had arrived there from the Cara Brea Castle Indianian, with the remainder of the passengers, baggage, and live stock.

JUNE 27. 8 ‘ Yon have already been apprised of the arrest, at Bans, of a British subject, on his arrival en board a Danish mer chant ship from Rio de Janeiro. It was at first stated that he had no passport; but I have since learned front good authority, that he was provided with one from Don Pedro's Minister for Foreign Affairs, and that the ground of his detention was his not having it. signed by the Portuguese Consul at that port. The police agents here endeavoured, by tricks and delays, to keep him long in confinement —bet, by the active intervention f the Consul, he was set at liberty. The four seamen belonging to the Vigilant cutter still remain in prison—and it is only this day that their plea was admitted into the Miguelite Court, that the money seized belonged to their Captain. Iris probable they will be detained for many months more—for such is the pleasure of Don Miguel. " Among the extraordinary results of the speech of Mr. Pee. have beedSeveral suicides. A woman, in despair of seeing her fa. mUy in quiet and peace, went to the Arches, which are well known as belonging to the splendid Aqueduct conveying water to Lisbon, threw herself off a height greater than that of the Monument in London, and was dashed to pieces in the valley. Another, a poor man, thrown out of employ by the political convulsions, flung him self out of the window in one of the most public streets, leaving a wife and three children to starve. A Dominican Friar, too, despe rate en finding that the British Government was giving all its weight to the scale in favour of Don Miguel, wrote down his sentiments, and took laudanum, which, however, did not produce the desired offect—be stabbed himself with a knife in several places, and was found dead in his cell in his convent near this city. "I have often mentioned to joss the fanaticism of the supersti dons followers of the Miguelite faction. In the 6asette of this week, which I remit to you, you will find abundant proot thereof. Don Miguel is compared to Jasus Cause, and his sufferings to those of the Savioua of mankind. Those extravagant —even blasphemous—effusions are published in the offidal paper by Lecturer in Theology, a Royal Preacher, a Cynodal Examiner in this Patriarchate, &c. In the paper of this morning you will find a description of a Church Festivity, at which sonnet; were used, in which the name of Miguel, and of all 'that Ca tholics consider pure and holy, are sacrilergiously blended. Few of the preachers now inculcate peace and forgettulneis, of Jujubes. They are continually calling out for the massacre of the enemies of Don Miguel. Au amnesty is to them an aboitsination, for they look upon it as offering encouragement to those whom they &rebound to bate. Among others Padre Jose Ageetinho de Macao, ia his Beata Esfolada (beast flayed), i mid weekly production, says that nothing but blood will put an end to revolution, which is continually breaking out in Oporto; Madeira, Terceira, and in intigrations. The prisons are still full, and there is as much misery as ever. " SAMURAI' Evonsto.—Several arrests were this day effected of persons for speaking against Don Miguel. Rumour speaks of the surrender of the island of Terceira to Doe Miguers money, the Chiefs being bribed. " Exchange on England 47—Government paper money, 25414 —Morning Herald. . 1 : THE ICING.

Extracted from Madden's Travels in 14 A Turkish Lady of fashion is wooed by an invi sible lover: in the progress of the courtship a hyacinth is occasionally dropt in her path, by an unknown hand, and the female attendant at the bath does the office of a Mercury, and talks of a certain Effendi demanding a Lady's love, as a nightingale aspiring to the affections of a rose! " A clove, Wrapped up in an embroidered handker chief, is the least token of condescension the nightingale can expect; but a written billet doux is an implement of love which the gentle rose is unable to manufacture. The father of the Lady at length is solicited for her hand, and he orders her to give it, and to love, !moue, and obey her husband: in short, they are married by proxy, before the Cedi, and the light of her lord's countenance first beams on her in the nuptial chamber. This change in her condition is one which evety spinstei envies: if she be the only wife, she reigns in the harem over a host of slaves; if there be two or three more, she shares with them in .the delights of domestic sway. Every week, at least, she is blessed with a periodical return of her husband's love; he enters the harem at noonday, and at sunset, after the fatigue of sauntering from one bazaar to another, and from the public divan to the private chambers,—he performs his evening ablutions,—one obsequious Lady fetches a vial of rcoe water to perfume his head, another beats a looking glass,. with a mother of pearl handle, another carries an embroidered napkin; and supper is brought in by a host of slaves and servants; for in most hat ems the ordinary attendants have access to the women's apart ments. The women stand before him *bile he eats # and when he finishes, a number of additiorial dishes are brought in for the Ladies, whose breeding consists in eating with the finger and thumb only, and in not devouring indecorously the sweetmeats, of which they are exceedingly fond. 4 ‘ When supper is removed, and the servants disap pear, there are few harems where small bottles of ro soglio are not produced; and of this liqueur, I have seen the Ladies take so many as three or four little glasses in the course of ten minutes. One of the female slaves generally presents the pipe on one knee; and sometimes one of the wives brings the coffee, and kisses the hand of her lord at the same time; this ceremony every wife goes through in the morning, none daring to sit down in his presence but such as have the honour of being mothers; but, in the evening, there is very little etiquette, and very little truth in the assertion of Pauqueville, that the Turks retire to their harems without relaxing the least particle of their gravity.' The reverse of this statement is near the truth; the orgies of the evening, in most harem►, are conducted 'with all the levity of licentiousness, and the gravity of the Mcislems totally disappears: their roars of laughter are to be heard in the adjoining houses ; and, in my opinion, the gravity of the Turk during the day is only the exhaustion of his spirits from previous excitement. I have seen him reclining on the divans, smoking his long chibouque, one of his wives, and generally the favourite, shampooing his feet with her soft fingers, and performing this operation for hours together. " This is accounted one of the . greatest luxuries of the harem; and an opium eater Assured me, the most delightful of his reveries was imagining himself sham pooed by the dark-eyed houris f Paradise. "The women vie with each other in eliciting the smiles of their common lord; one shows the rich silk she has been embroidering for his vest, another plays an instru ment resembling a spinet, and another displays her ele gant form in the voluptuous :mixes of the dance. No handkerchief is thrown, but a smile is sufficient to ,'speed the soft intercourse from soul to soul ; and from that moment. to the period when another fa vourite supplants the former, she is salaamed with additional respect by the slaves, and treated with greater honour by all the harem. When she goes to the bath she is to be distinguished by the importance of her air ; •the waddling of her gait attests her quality ; she' dis poses her white robe over her fair arms so as to present the largest possible surface en face, and GOD help the unlucky Christian who crosses her path. I have had the honour of being insulted by Ladies of rank far more frequently than by any other women. The fanaticism of females is in a ratio with their quality, and hence it is Dom them, chiefly, a Frank passenger has to expect 'such gentle maledictions as, ' May the plague tall on your house!' May the •foul birds defile your beard. loss Chia May she who would marry you be childless!' 44 In fact. education in Turkey has no other object abet tti ` toitei fanaticism, and inculcate intolerance • ',When the tady •isits her female friends, notice is pre. 'icoafry sent of her intention. that the men may have time to get out of the way ; the moment she enters the harem ►he takes off her veil, receiv.ng a thousand , salaams, smokes a pipe or two, ani is regaled with fruit, ',sweetmeats, and luaip sugar.
