LITERATURE.

THE DRUbEB.

Of this extraordinary claw--people who worship the tuff we hoes
the following description :
In the sixteenth century they attracted the attention of Europe, in
sonseguesce of a visit which one of their princes paid to Italy. Ac-
cording to the opinion of some, they are the descendants of Christians
who had been engaged in the crusades for recovery of the Holy Land ;
while others hold their origin to be from Mohammed Ben Limed, sur-
named the Dorms. In 1686, the Satan Amarath, finding that his
Pacts could not repress their outrages, completely subdued, and
allowed than only one chief instead of a host of sheiks. In the seven.
Month century, their power was at its summit, when Emir Roar.
dine, who was the fourth mince of this tribe, was their ruler, who
had a magnificent palace at Bayreuth, the ruins of which are still to be
seen. Jealous of his rising authority, the Grand Seignior drove him
beck to the mountains, where his posterity to this day retain their prin.
apathy, and their city is Delr•el-Hamaat. The Turks, jealous of his
power, resolved to overwhelm him, but be declined the attack. He
was afterwards, however, seized by them, and put to death at Constan-
tinople in 1631. There are no troops under this govemment, but when
war breaks out every person is called upon to march against the enemy.
Hospitality to strangers forms a very striking trait in their character.'
At one time the Drums were so formidable to the Ottoman Porto, that
they seised upon and committed most terrible ravages in Damascus.-1
The Dresses are calculated at about one hundred thousand, and their
language is pure Arabic ; they keep close together about Mount Lebo-
son, in all probability after the manner of the Jews, who considered it
man unlawful thing to associate or come unto one of another nation—.
No Mahomedan is permitted to reside in their district. In the drag
of females many are distinguished with a large tantours, a Ilan, placed
bean upright position on their forehead, with a scarf or shawl thrown]
over it to veil their faces ; which affords a striking commentary on pas-
sages of the inspired volume. This we find was symbolical of power,
and it is supposed to have bees taken from the Hebrews; and allusions
have been made to it as an emblem of strength. They are an WWII.
lightened people, involved In the greatest idolatry and error. Although
to some it may appear extraordinary that, at the present day, radeoid
and immortal creatures should, in place of fearing the Almighty,
be found to kneel down before inanimate objects of any descrip-
tion, or strange gods, and in " dead things lave their hope
yet it is a notorious fact, that them exists among this sect a relic of thei
ancient mythology of Egypt; for the representation of a calf of wood, I
covered with gilding, " the work of man's heeds," is elevated in their
temple, before which they prostrate themselves, and Air up solemn
acts of adoration ; thus changing the glory of the incorruptible God
Into an image made like to four.footed beasts, and robbing him of that
homage to which he is entitled from his dependant creatures. One
opinion which the Drumm entertain is, that after death the souls of
persons who have exercised a virtuous course of life pass into hones,
well fed, and kindly treated ; while, on the other hand, the vital prin-i
dpi. of such as lead a wicked or sinful course enter into those which
are starved, and doomed to be treated with murky by their owners.-1
Little respect is paid by them to degrees of relationship in the nuptial
bond, since they intermarry with their nearest Itirtired, as If no law
whatever existed to tegulate the inn rcourse of the sexes : this union i•
not only permitted between brothers and shorn, but sometimes, even,

The scene was grand and Impressive, and it is supposed that not fewer
than 10,000 persons were present on the ocosion. The appearance
and high state of discipline of this pliant corps reflect the highest
credit on its Commanding (Meer, and every member of it. In the
evening the Officers gave a rind la.ll at the theatre, ankh wee hand.

WRITING A COM EDT.—Wbou a man attempts to write
a five-act Comedy, his first difficulty consists in pleasing
himself. His second in pleasing the manager. His third
in pleasing the actors. His fourth in pleasing the licenser.
His fifth in pleasing the audience. His sixth in pleasing
the newspapers ; and, in addition to all them, the actors
must please not to be takes ill; the weather must please
not to be unfavourable; the opposing theatre most
not to put up strong bills : and then—what then e.t.a;
then, " Please to pay the bearer the small sum of ;

of it in the town where his theatre was situated.—fitid.
