" My service to you, brother worm, If I'm allowed so free a term ; Yeti seem to have enough to do, You're alway's toiling —more fool you ; An'd then 'allow mankimd to hilk Your honour's serviceable silk. " Nay," said the silkworm, " never mi 'Tis thy delight to serve mankind. Yes sir, I'm proud that I can render My services to either gender. For gentlemen and ladies, too, Resort to me—you know they do. I'm more than proud, I must confess, That I'm cOnne;:tecl thus with dress ; And so would you be, Master Grub, Had you the h.:moor—there's the rub. I say again I'm proud to know That thousand patronise me so ; And while such multitudes admire What I contribute to attire, Your humble servant won't be stow In thus obliging —oh dear, no." I heard APPLICATION. , and thus began to muse : Such are the words that Moses' use. hoses and Son, whom thousands aid, Are like the silkworm in their trade. 'Tis Moses' bride to sell attire, 'Which multitudes so much admire. ladies and gentlemen each day Obtain from Moses' choice display, And Moses, like the silken worm, 'While thus the public seek their firm, In Declare they never will be slow ierring those who aid them so.

In our advocacy of a Financial Reform, it will be seen that we do not seek to confer a privilege upon one class, at tile expense of an other; but in our transactions, to apply principles of such sterling value and universal import as mast prove, in the fullest sense of the term, equally advantageous to all. We seek, in fact, to reduce, not the income, but the expenditure, of every individual. How this may he effected the following outline of our novel, yet well appreciated business system, will readily show. POSSESSING L ‘ItGE ESTABLISHMENTS in most of the principal towns in Great Britain, our concentrated purchases are necessarily very extensive ; from this cause we are enabled to obtain materials direct from the manufacturers, for cash, at prices considerably lower than the average. Our garments are de signed and cut by talented artists, and manufactured by experienced workmen ; our profits are calculated at a nominal per-tentage upon original cost, and the price is marked on every garment, in plain gures, from which no deviation is allowed. These facts, together with the accommodation afforded by the exchange of garments not approved after purchase, afford advantages to our patrons such as have been seldom, if ever, elsewhere presented, enabling them to effect a reduction in their expenditure, at least in the item "Clothing," of not less than 40 per cent., as the following brief price list will testify to some extent : READY MADE.

E 4 =4 Er I N°. 17,716.] LONDON, FRIDAY .„ CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice COLTMAN and Mr. Justice MAULE.) THE TRIAL OF FRANCO MACCAGNINE GRANATELLI, COMMONLY CALLED PRINCE GRANATELLI, LOUIS SCALIA, AND JOHN MOODY, FOR MISDEMEANOUR. (Continued from The Sun of yesterday.) Mr. Howell (the secretary to the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company) wire then called as a witness, and Sir F. Th-t , iger required him to produce the agree meat for the sale and purchase of the Vcctis and Bom bay, but ho declined to do so. Sir F. TUESIGER asked upon what ground he declined to produce the agreement ? The witncss said he declined to do so because ho be lieved that the instrument might, if produced, criminate him, and render him subject to a similar charge to that made against the present defendants. Sir F. TIIESIGER. still pressed for the rrodaction of the sgreement. JUitiCC COLTMAN said he thought it right to in form the witness, that every person who was in any way concerned in fitting out a vessel for warlike purposes, with the object specified, or who attempted to fit one out, or assisted others to do so, would clearly come within the terms of the statute. The witness said that having directed his attention to the statute, and to the nature of the charge, he could conscientiously state his belief that if he produced the agreement it might have the effect of subjecting him to a criminal charge. Mr. Justice COLTMAN said that, upon this statement, he did not think he ought to enforce the production of the document. Sir F. THESIGER said that, under these circumstances, he must endeavour to give secondary evidence of the' contents of the agreement. Mr. G. Trench deposed that he was the clerk to the solicitors for the prosecution, and attended before the magistrates when this matter was inquired into. lie saw the last witness produce an agreement, which was afterwards deposited with the magistrate, but it was sub sequently taken away to be stamped, and he went to So merset-house with an officer for that purpose. Ile made an abstract of that agreement, and was able to state the contents of it. Sir F. TIIESIGER then asked the witness to state the nature of the document, but _ _ _ Sir F. KELLY objected that secondary evid snce of the contents of the agreement ought not to be received under such circumstances. The objection was argued at some length, and even tually the Court ruled that the evidence of the contents of the agreement might be received, bat it must first be shown that the defendants were parties to the agreement. Mr. B. Wilcox was then called. He deposed that he was the son of one of the directors of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company. Sir F. THESIGER then inquired whether ho was not the attesting witness to the agreement for the sale of the two steam-ships to the defendants, Granatelli and Scalia?—The witness said, he must decline to give any evidence. He had acted as agent and banker in the matter, and ho believed that if he answered the question be might render himself liable to a criminal charge. Sir F. THESIGER submitted that the conduct of the witness amounted to trifling with the Court. All that he was called upon to prove was, that he was the attesting witness to a deed. Sir F. KELLY said that being a party to a deed of the description that was represented. would make the de fendant equally liable with the others. Mr. Justice COLTMAN said, that taking into considera tion the very stringent provisions of this Act of Parlia ment, he thought the witness was entitled to the protec tion he claimed. Viscount Palmerston was then examined. His Lord ship sail, I am her Majesty's Secretary of State for Fo reign Affairs. lam enabled to state that no leave or li cence has been granted by her Majesty, either by order in council, sign manual, or proclamation, to any per sons to fit out vessels of war for the purpose of acting hostilely against the King of the Two Sicilies. This country was at peace with that country all last year, and still continued so. I know Prince Graeatelli and the other defendant, Scalia. and I have had interviews with them at the Foreign•of&ce and at my own house, in the character of organs of communication not officially re ceived by her Majesty's Government from the then ex isting de facto Government of Sicily. Sir F. Mesta En—By that expression I take your Lordship to mean the representatives of persons exer cising the powers of Government at Palermo. Lord Palmerston—Yes. By Sir F. KELLY—The defendants brought a letter to me from the Government they represented. Sir F. KELLY said this letter ought to be produced, because it would show clearly the position of the de fend ants in this country. Sir F. THESIGER said it appeared to him that what the defendants stated verbally was quite sufficient, with out the production of the document. Lord Palmerston—The defendants represented them selves as the agents of an independent existing Govern ment at Palermo. 'rhe British Government had not acknowledged that Government as having an European existence, and, therefore, they were not received in that cap4city, but merely as the organs of communication with a Government which was acknowledged as existing, but not as a recognised European power. That Govern ment was hostile to the King of Sicily. Sir F. KELLY—Was not the exact position of the de fendants described in a dispatch from the Government at Palermo? Lord Palmerston—lt wts. Sir F. KELLY—Is not this (holding up a paper) the original document they brought to your Lordship? Lord Palmerston--I believe that to be the original letter. _ _ ------ Sir F. MERGER—Where does it come from? Sir F. KELLY—From the Foreign•office. Do you wish to have it read?—(A laugh.) Sir F. THESlGER—Certainly not.—(Laughter.) Lord Palmerston then proceeded to scat() that be be lieved the Government at Palermo declared itself inde pendent early in 1848, and that shortly afterwards nearly the whole of the kingdom was in th© p.)ssession of the insurgents, and the King was declared to be dethroned, but no hostile proceedings actually took place between the insurgents and the kingdom of Naples until Sep tember. Sir F. KELLY—Did not the British Government me diate between the parties, with a view to prevent the continuance of hostilities? Lord Pahnerston—Hosti lities were put an end to by the interference of the British and French Admirals, after the capture of Messina. Sir F. THESIGER objected to this course of examina tion being proceeded with, as he said Lord Palmerston was asked to speak to matters which were not within his own knowledge. Sir F. KELLY submitted that he had a right to go into these matters to show the position of the defen dants, and tho state of affairs in the kingdom of Sicily, and that they were very important as tending to show what was the actual character of the acts imputed to the defendants. Lord Palmerston then proceeded to state that before he had had any communication with Prince Granatelli or Scalia, and at a very early period of the dispute be tween Sicily and Naples, au application was made by the Sicilians to the British Government to mediate between them. The defendants referred to this application in their communications with him. Sir F. IiELLr inquired if a cessation of hostilities was not obtained through the mediation of the British and French Admirals? Sir F. TuESIQER said he must really object to this course of examination. Lord Palmerston could not know the fact of his own knowledge. Sir F. KELLY said that his Lordship, from his position must be wull aware of the fact. It was itnpossible for him to call the Admirals to prove it. Lord Palmerston said he had no doubt that a cessa tion of hostilities was obtained through the interference of the two Admirals. His Lordship then went on to say that the defendants informed him that a Parliament of Lords a:id Commons was sitting in Palermo, and they frequently adverted to that fact. Ile said he was also informed that a President had been appointed provision ally. He was aware of the seizure of the Bombay, but had no.hing officially to do with it. Sir F. KELLY—Is not your Lordship aware that the vessel was given up after a consultation with the law officers of the Crown. ? Sir F. TIMMER objected to the question. Mr. Justice COLTMAN thought the Learned Counsel had a right to ask if the vessel was liberated. Lorl Palmerston—The vessel was restored. Sir F. KELLY wished to know whether this was not done after the law officers of the Crown had been con sulted as to the logalLty of the seizure, but Sir F. Thesi ger objected to such a question being put. Mr. Justice COLTMAN observed, that although, strictly speaking, the question was not one which could legally be put, under the circumstances, vet it might be very fairly assumed that the Government would not have re stored the vessel without good advice. Sir F. KELLY said he was quite satisfied with this in timation from his Lordship. By Sir F. TIIESIGER —I did not hear from the defend ants that the members of the Provisional Government at Palermo had been taking arms to Marseilles in the Vec tis. The President was Reigiero Septimo. Ido not recollect the name of Lafarina being mentioned, but they told me that the Marquis Torreasa was the Minister for Foreign Affairs. During all this period the Prince Casteleicala was the accredited Minister from Sicily to this country. Colonel 11. Aubrey deposed that ho formerly was a lieutenant in her Aajesty's 31st Foot, and was subse quently appointed to the Royal Horse Guards Blue, and served in the Peninsula, under the Duke of Wellington. In September, 1848, he resided at Pisa, in Tuscany, and at that period he had some conversations with Colonel Forbes, and subsequently communicated with the exist ing Government of Sicily, at Palermo. Ile had frequent communications with M. Lafarina, the Minister of %Vat., and he also saw occasionally the AfarZini; Torreasa. Witness went to Palermo on the 12th of November, 1848, and attended afterwards three councils of tsar, st which Lafarina end the other members of the Govern ment then is exietence were present. In consequence of subsetilent directions from that Government ho went to London on the 18th of N overn i i Colonel Forbes was the inspector-general of the troops belonging to the Government at Yalerrao He re- [PRICE SD. ceived some written instructions at different times from the Government, and on the 18th of November he re ceived his final instructions from M. Lafarina, at the !liar-office, and on the following day be set sail for England, where he arrived on the 20.11 of December, end ho immediately reported himself to Prince Grans tell', at his residence, No. 55, Brock-street. The Prince ae described in his instructions as the Sicilian Envoy. Before he left Sicily he received a sum of two hundred pounds from the Marquis Torreasa, who was the Minis ter for Fereign Affairs. Upon going to the house in 13 ,- oele•street he was first introduced to M. Scalia, and he then presented him to the Prince. Witness told him he was an officer in the Sicilian army, and he was in structed to report himself to tha Sicilian Envoy, and he was about proceedieg further, when trie Prince said he was aware of his mission and objet', but they could not do anything new, as they were waiting for further inetructiens from the Government. The prisoner also said that they Is d heard from pries to frif tide in Sicily what his object was in coming to England, bat as they had not got money at that time, and were not aware that his mission would re quite considerable expenditure, they could not proceed with the matter, and told him to come again in a few days. Witness was anxious ab rut the money, and he therefore called again in Brook-street in tw o or three days, and was then told again that no money had arrived. Witness told Mr. Scalia that part of his instructions were to put part of the men he had raised on beard the two steam-vessels they had purchased, and he said it was true they bad purchased two very fine steamers, but all the money had not been paid for them, and, in the course of the conversation, the vessels' names were stated to be the Bombay and the Vectis. The de fendant Scalia said he thought it would be very impru dent to put the men on board the steam vessels, as the Briish Government might interfere and seize the vessels. lie had mentioned that the number of men was to be 1,260, and they had a good deal of conversation on the subject of the men's clothing. Witness told the Prince also • that his own uniform had been made up, and the Prince wished to see it, but he did not show it to him. After this, witness went to Brook street regularly every week, • and repeatedly saw the Prince and M. Soatia, and they had several conversations respecting the steam-vessels ; but during all this time both the gentlemen said they hal not received either instructions or money from the Government, and they also said that if the y did not get money speedily they might get into a scrape with regard to the deposit money that had been paid on account of the steamers. At this stage of the case the Court and jury retired to take some refreshment, and upon their return the trial was resumed. Captain Aubrey, on being further examined, said that at one of the interviews where the Prince and M. Scalia were both present, they said they could only account for the non-arrival of the money, that a Ican for 750,0001., which was to have been advanced by the French Go vernment, had not been effected. Witness inquired who was to command the Bombay, and they said they were in want of a person to take the command, and inquired it he knew any English dashing fellow who would take the command of her, and hesaid he would make inquiries for such a person for them. These gentlemen were per fectly aware what the vessels were to be used for. He subsequently accompanied Lieut. Waghorno and a gen tleman named Lalchford to Brook-street, but as the Prince was not up, they went away, and another appoint ment was made, but Lieut. Wagnorne did not return. The Prince was told on this occasion that they had got just the men that they wanted, and that if the Bom bay was put under the command of Lieutenant Wag horns, he would undertake that out of the eighteen steamers belonging to the King of Naples, he would bring in twelve, but ho could not answer for the other six. --(A laugh.) This conversation passed in English, but witness explained it to the Prince in French, and he replied, " Cela sera bon pour nous," and rubbed his hands and appeared very delighted. This interview terminated by M. Scalia saying that they would write to the Government at Palermo, and recom mended Lieutenant Waghorne, and they took down the address of that gentleman, in order that they might communicate with him. The defendants told him that the Bombay was the finer vessel of the two, but they never said what was to be the destination of that vessel. In January witness took a letter to the residence of the Prince, in Brook-street, which enclosed another from M. Lafarina, containing his final instructions. The documents were put in and read. The effect of the witness's letter was an application for funds, and for the advice and opinion of Prince Granatelli and M. Scalia how best to carry out the mission with which he was entrusted by the Government at Palermo. The in structions from M. Lafarina were to the effect deposed to by the witness in his evidence, as to raising men and embarking them for Palermo. The defendants, iu reply to the circumstances, stated that, they had not received any instructions from the Go vernment at Palermo respecting the witness, and that they were unable to take any further proceedings in the absence of such directions from the Government. Z /-/ capQ, and general military clothing. Prince Granatelli told'him that he did not know much about the steam vessels, but that Colonel d'Amico could tell him more about them; and on a subsequent occasion be e:lled upon that gentleman at the address which Prince Granatelli had given him. Upon seeing Colonel d'Amico, he in• troduced himself, and told him that he had been re ferred to him by Prince Granatelli. Colonel d'Amico told him he had only just arrived. and was very tired, but would see the Prince soon. Witness informed him that he had heard that two steamers had been pur chased, and also that he was getting on as fast as pos sible with the accoutrements, in accordai.ce with instruc tions he lied received from Colonels Forbes and Aubrey. At this time Colonel Aubrey was not in England, and he saw him first in the month of December. He accom panied that gentleman to Brook-street, and. saw the Prince and M. Scalia. Lieutenant Wagheraie accom panial them to the house, but he did not wait to see the Prince. The witness then proceeded to corroborate the evidence of Col. Aubrey with regard t..) what took place on the occasion in question. The witness added that, after this conversation, he went down to Blackwell, and went on board the Bombay, which vessel he found in charge of the defendant Moody, nod iu the course of the conversa tion he had with him, he told hint that he ehould leave the river en the following Friday. Mr. Gilby, an army clothier in the Strand, proved that pursuant to an order he received from Colonel Aubrey, to prepare d accoutrements for a body of twelve hundred men, and he al s o f urnished a unif o rm for Colonel Aubrey Mr. Dryden cl , prsucl that he had been ie the navy for several years. In April last he was residing at Liver p etl, and I%m-rebored the Vectis arriving at that port, and he understood she was a war-steamer for the use of the Si.:;!iten insurgents. He applied to have the com e:and of the vessel or to be appointed lieutenant to her, and in consequence of a communication he received from the agent of the vessel, he went to London, and had an interview with Prince Granatelli and M. Scalia, and ell them that he understood two war-vessels were being fited out against the Neapolitan Government, and he wished to be employed on board of one of them, statiree, at the same time, that he had been employed on board several steam-frigates, and :'elt himself com petent to take a vessel into action. The defendant Scalia told him that it was impossible to give him a de fiuite answer then, for he knew nothing about it himself. fie saw them repeatedly afterwards upon the same sub ject, and Scalia always informed him that he could do nothing, as he was waiting for funds. He heard Scalia frequently say that the Vectis and the Bombay were ening out as war-steamers against the Neapolitans, and Captain Parker told him he was to be the Com modore. Witness was on board the Bombay, and saw Captain Moody, and told hive that he had been writing to be sent out to join the insurgents since November, and that Prince Granatelli and M. Scalia had promised he should be . appointed. C a pt a i n M oo d y replied that if he brought h i m a letter from Prince Grankelli he would make an extra officership for him. The Bombay was decidedly not fitted as a m erc h ant vessel, but was in all resp , 'ets a ship of war, and a very fine ono too. There was a natoked battery and preparations for guns, and she was strengthened so as to enable the guns to be fought, and everything on board was in man-of-war fashion. Cross-examined—Witness did not see any arms on board the Bombay, or, in fact, anything calculated for warlike purposes. He was not acquainted with the cha racter of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company's ve:4els, and was not aware that this vessel had been built for them. He was aware that all large vessels which were used as Government mail packets were built so as to be capable of carrying four swivel guns of large ca libre. He received no employment on board the vessel, although he made repeated applications to be engaged as an officer on board of her. Ho saw the Bombay Just before her departure, and to his knowledge there was at that time no war furniture on board of her. There were very few men on board, not more than sufficient to navi gate the vessel._ _ Re-examined— Government mail packets are not fitted up as this vessel was. She could have fought her way any where, and might have had her guns in in six hours. Mr. D. IT. Watson, a Custom-house officer, proved that he had frequently been on b oar d t h e Bombay, and he gave a similar description of the vessel to the last wit ness. He also said that the mode in which she was fitted up excited his suspicion, and ho communicated with the Custom-house authorities, and eventually, by their directions, seized the vessel, on the 16th March. The steam was up at the time, and in ten minutes' time she would have been gone. On the 4th of May, by or ders from the Treasury, he delivered up the vessel. The witness then proceeded to give a technical description of the mode in which the vessel was fitted up, and ex pressed an opinion that a vessel would not have been so fitted up if it had been intended for peaceful purposes. Upon being cross-examined, the witness said that he had put himself originally forward in the matter, but he had received information from many persons with re gard to the suspicious character of the vessel. He ad mitted that he had been in communication with Mr. Finch, the solicitor for the prosecution, but he denied that he had received any money, or that he had been promised any for giving information with regard to the vessel. Examination continued—Daring the ccmmunications hkel with the defendants he made them acquainted with the fact of his having originally gone from Piss to Palermo, at the la quest of Colonel Forbes, al d he told them distinctly that he had come to England for the purpose of raising a budy of troops, and that he was to , nter into contracts to arm and equip them, and that they might be able to take the field in the most effective form, and that his arrangements were very advanced b‘,th ssith regard to the contracts and the men. It was understood by the defendants that tho men were to be put on bo ird the steamers, and to be taken as quietly as possible to Palermo, where, by means of Lord Pal merston's formidable guns, they expected to make a good resistance. Ile also told the defendants that it was not his intention to remain at Palermo, but that he should organize an expedition and stir up the Calabrians, and proceed at once to Naples and attack the King in his capital; and that he had also received instructions to obtain an admiral to command all tie steamers, and to send him without I ,, ss of time to Palermo. Witness likewise told them that Captain llamnett, of her Ma jesty's navy had undertaken the office of Lord High Admiral of the Sicilian Navy, and in fact the defendants had the fullest knowledge of the ob ject of his mission in every particuhr. It was understood that the uniform was to combine the colours of the Sicilian tricolour—red, white, and green —and he had several conver , ations with the defendants respecting the breastplates, buttons, and other portions of the unifurrn. He concluded by stating that, in con sequence of a communication he received from Colonel Forbes, in February, he ceased to have any further commas cations with the defendants. The contracts for the clothes were never completed, on account of the want of funds, and no men we re actually enlistel for the service. Cross. examined by Sir F. KELLY—I ho . .d no rank in the British army at present. I was an Ensign in 1807. After the battle of Vittoria I retired from the British army. I was then a Lieutenant in the Royal Horse. Guards (Blue). I was a Colonel in the Spanish army. I was living at Pisa, upon my private fortune, when I firzt communicated with the Government at Palermo, and I accepted service under that Government in October, 1848. I was to have the full rank of Colonel, and was to receive about 245. id. a day. I went " over to the enemy" when the Government treated me like rascals. I ceased to act for the Sicilian Government in the be ginning of March, and I communicated with the agents of the Neapolitan Government about the 10th or 12th of that month, and informed them what had taken place between me and Prince Granatelli and M. Scllia. Since that time I have been continually in communication w_ith the agents of the Neapolitan 9overnment.l tre edaerfeinitiaad a is nts. many as ten or twelve interviews with at these interviews, e xcept Mr. Latch ford . No Lau, • No third person I evler prese nt never received any letters from the defendants after the ono in which they informed me that they had received no instructions from their Go vernment which could have any reference to me or to the matters about which I had communicated with them. I had no communication of any kind with the defendants after the 26th of February. I first communicated with the solicitors to the Neapolitan Government, and my first interview with Prince Castelcicala on the 10th of March. I never told the defendants that I intended to betray them to the Neapolitan Government. I have not received any money from the Neapolitan Government. At the conclusion of this witness's examination the teal was adjourned. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Sir F. KELLY—Are you to receive any ? Colonel Aubrey—Ana I obliged, my Lord, to answcr tbat question ?

Witness—l am to have what the Sicilian Government owe me. Sir F. KELLY— How much ? Witness—Three hun dred pounds. Sir F. KELLY—What were you to receive 3001. for? Witness—For giving evidence to cause the seizure of the Bombay steamer. Sir F. KELLY—Then you did give some ,t!vidence which led to the seizure of the Bombay? itness— I did. By Sir F. THESIGEIt—I left the service of the Sicilian Government, because, having p led g ed my word honour for the fulfilment of the contract, they placed me in it difficult position by neglecting tosendmemo a n n e d y l . o. I wrote to Colonel Forb es to remonstrate with the G. ve r n ment; but, instead of sending me mone y , the y dis patched a secret ag ent to get awa y the steamers, was told by Colonel Forbes to be quick and s top the steamrrs, or I should be thrown overboard. They in tended to play the t r a i t or with me, but I Wa3 too deep for them, and I considered myself justified in stopping the vessels. The amount of the contracts for which I was liable was 1,5001. Mr. Latchford, army accoutrement maker, Sr. Martin's lane, deposed that he had some communications with Col. Aubrey, and also with Col. Forbes. In consequence of these communications, before Col. Aubrey arrivcd in Englund, ho waited upon Prince Granatelli, end told him that he was contracting to supply arms and accoutrements to the Sicil:ftn Provisional Government, at the request of Col. Aubrey and Col. Forb.ls. The Prince sail that he knew Colonel Forbes very well, but he had only heard of Colonel Aubrey. Witness also told him that he ' understood two steam boats bad been purchased, but nothing was said as to the purpose for which they were to be employed.

Tuesday, Feb. 29.—Visited the same convent which we had seen the Sultan enter, to witness an exhibition of dancing dervishes. Casting off our overshoes, and passing through the door beside which sentries were stationed, we took our places within a railing, which ran around the circular floor of the mosque. There was a similar gallery above. Some thirty dirty looking dervishes, in faded brown and green cloaks, with white felt conical hats upon their heads, were prostrate around the circle, while the Imaum, the same who had preceded the Sultan, chanted a prayer before the mibrab on the eastern side. There was music from the gallery, plaintive, yet bar barous, mingled with the occasional tap of the drum. After repeated prostrations, at a signal the Imaum led the way, in a slow march, round the apartment. As each one passed the mihrab, he bowed three times gracefully, without stopping, or turning his back towards the holy After marching round three times, making the same reverence, they halted with their faces inwards, and the Imaum resumed his seat upon his rug before the mihrab. The others, all barefooted, crossing their feet one after the other, in slow succt,ssion, began to twirl around, keeping admirable time to the music; and when all in motion, looked like so many teetotums spinning. The word spinning conveys a better idea than turning; for they seemed to move about without the slightest effort, and their flawing garments, flying out in extended circles below, gave the movement a most graceful appearance. As the music became louder anal faster, they spun round with increasing rapidity, until the eye became dizzy with looking upon them. At a tap of the drum they stopped simultaneously, with no perspiration upon their fore head, and neither frenzy nor fatigue expressed in the eye. They were of all ages, from the old Imaum, with the benevolent features, to a boy of sixteen, whose melan choly face excited interest. Indeed they all had an air of sadness and profound resignation—nothing ferocious, nothing sinister, nothing fanatical. Renewing the march, and repeating the prostrations, the exercises continued about an hour and concluded as they began. The audience either stood erect, or sat upon the floor, and preserved deep silence. The whole affair did not strike us in the ridiculous light we had anticipated. Indeed, some of the customs of Christianity are equally absurd. The religious sentiment is the same all over the world, and must find expression. Humanity rejoices when such expression, harmless in itself, as in the present in stance, neither assails the opinions nor the rights of others. Such is the neces)ity of religion for the sup port of all human institutions, that any form orworship, however false and corrupt, is preferable to the atrocious enormities which f .11ow in the train of absolute impiety. —Lynch's Expedition to the Dead Sea.
