They have perfumes and music, md everv- thing that the tenderness and love of their masters can procure for them. By their side our sons, who have been received by the Turks may become officers in the army, captains, Ca 1 dis, pashas and viziers. They then bless their parents, who have had the courage and good sense to emancipate them from d life of hard ships, of struggles, and of cruel labors. And then, when we rear them with the intention of selling them, they know that no happiness awaits them in their own country, and there fore they leave it without regret. The Rus slans who wish to enslave us, under the pretense that We follow an inhuman trade, are not bet ter than we are. The great Prince, (Shamvl,) who knew them we'll, who has lived in their cities, andNetudied their manners and their laws, has often told us of the horrible deeds committed among them. We sell our children, because the soil of our country is unfruitful. because we cannot afford them any other life than that of constant labor and of misery that cannot be removed. Yet we have gentle man. ners, we love each other, and we oblige and assist each other. Among us you will not find the 6'aout, neither will you see prisoners nor executioners. The wishes of our old men are always attentively listened to and respected And the stranger who risks his person in our mountains is always sure of protection and as- siStance."
 The doctor continued his conversation with the old Circassian for few minutes longer- He spoke to him about Schamyl, who is king, prophet a very god throughout all the Cau- casus. Schamyl is hero even in the eye of Europeans, but besides this he is a prophet among the Crcassians.
 "Schamyl is inspired by God," added the old man. "He often retircs te the recesses of cavern, where he remains for five or six days at time to hear the counsels which an angel comes to give him. He is lion in battle.- The Russians are not able to bear the glare of hls countenance, and when they hear the thun- der of his voice they turn their backs and fee We have slain many of these fellows, and this ls the reason why the Vulture of the Shows (Nlcholas) is now levying bloody war against us. But wait a while; the muskets that we are going to buy will do our business better than the lances. Before long, depend upon It, no Russian will dare show his face in our mountains The great Prince has predicted that, and what he predicts always turns out true"
