Ai a51o S7'fo'oi' e'H The Turk has ra rely more than one wife: the Koran allows him ifoGf.. The conside- rations which restrain him are these; in inc first piace his means will seldom permit it each wife must have her separate apart rients, her separate servants, her separate ta- ble, and all the ct ceteras of distinct estab- lishment, In fine second place, the affection for, one which he already has. may render him indifferent about another. The Turk considers his wife as inferior to himself, but he loves her, he Is pleased even with her wlifnis, and wOhld rush down forty cataracts to avenge an insult that had been offered. .- In the third place, if he has married into a wealthy or influential family, the fear of giy- ing offence, and thus fotfciting an expected inheFitance, or of defeating some scheme of personal ambition, restraints hisIj. He sell dom, therefore, avails himself of the liberties of inc Koran. As for bachelors among the Turks, US the Journal suggests, such a thing is not known; you might as well look for crab apples in peach orchard. or last years almanac on the tOiIet of lady.
