EXTERIOR OF THE CITY OF ALEPPo.-I
had occasion to mention the low rentals of hou-
ses, in Aleppo, as one of the facilities which
the town offers as place of depot; but il
should be stated, that to keep the buildings in
repair is more costly than the amount paid for
rent; in fact, so little is received by the owners,
that the largest house proprietor in Aleppo, and
is supposed to own nearly one fourth ofthe CT
ty, shy no means an opulent man. One great
source Of expenditure is the gardens, which
cover all the roofs of the city. Seen from a.
bove the whole town is succession of terraces
over which is spread rank and luxurant vege-
tation; looking like an irregular plain, under
which the multituGinous inhabitants circulate,
the streets being all of them covered in, and
lighted only by gratings from above. Looked
at from the terraces, Aleppo appears a subter
ranean city, whose noises scarcely penetrate
through the superintendent bed of earth. II
is easy to walk from one end of the city to the
other, over the streets aad over the houses,
there being generally wooden steps or ladders
which enable the wanderer to ascend or descend
from one range of terraces to another.
DAMASCUS, probably the oldest city in the
world, still occupies the place it occupied in the
days of Abraham, and though it has, no doubt,
seen many vicissitudes, its population is still
very considerable, and its trade is very extern
sive. Damascus is called by the Orientals "a
pearl surrounded by emeralds." Nothing can
be more beautiful than itS position, whether APP
preached from the side of Mount Lebanon, from
the Desert to the east, or by the high road from
the north from Aleppo and Hannah. For ma
ny miles the city is girded by fertile fields, or
gardens as they are called, which being water
ed by rivers and sparkling streams, give to the
vegetation, ousisting principally of olive trees,
a remarkable freshness and beauty. Though
the trade of Damascus is very considerable, it
has no English establishment within its walls
More than one has existed, but it has not been
found 10 answer; and the trade that has been
carried on for English account, is either by
French, Italian, or native houses. OF all the
cities of the East, Damascus is probably the
most oriental -the city which has undergone
the fewest changes. The European costume
is scarcely ever seen; and with few exceptions
l believe the Frank settlers have adopted the
Syrian dress. There is at Damascus tribu-
nal of commerce for the settlement of business
disputes. 1t consists oftwelve persons-name-
ly: nine Mussulmans, two Christians, and one
Jew. The proportion is not very fairly arrang-
ed with reference to the numbers of the pop
ulation of the different religious bodies; but
one of the principal Christian merchants assur-
ed me, that, on the whole, they were tolerably
satisfied with the decisions of the tribunal and
it was seldom the Mahomedan majority showed
any disposition to act unfairly to Christian lit
igants.

We quote the following strange consequence

GA working jeweller, in the Quarter st.
Jacques, had repeatedly lost articles Of value
entrusted to him by his employers, and from the
circumstances of his life and establishment,
could not believe the abstraction to have been
made by any one but his own daughter He re-
pcatedly accused her of the thefts, which she
strenuously denied As they continued till all
his savings were exhausted, and his conviction
as to the cause remained mistaken, he turned
his child out of doors, and lived alone. Not
withstanding this, his losses did not cease, and
he was almost in despair, vixen few nights
ago he was awakened from his sleep by vio-
lent pain in one of his feet. On examining it,
he found that it arose from wound, in which
there was piece of glass, On recollection, he
called to mind that, on the preceding day, he
broke glass on the table, and was convinced
that he must have trod upon the fragments With
his naked feet, and to do this must have walk
ed in his sleep, and got upon the table Follow
ing up this idea, he made an investigation, and
at length discovered all the missing articles con
cealed in the corner of the cealing of the room.
He sent for his daughter home next morning"
