COSTUMES OF THE MODERN TURKs.-The ladies
and the clergy (says Mr.. Burgess, writing to tn e
Buafder) are almost the only classes which have
entirely preserved the. ancient costume and
there are few sights. more picturesque than to
see group of women clad in every imaginable
color. Their walking dresses and wells are not
unlike those worn by the ladies of the thirteenth
century but the men, on the contrary, wear
dull-looking European trousers and coats, and
hardly appear as yet to have completely master
ed the management of the buttons. As they
live in a hot climate, where the head and eyes
are required to be sheltered from the sun, they
have disused the turban, aud replaced it by a
frez of bright red color, of course without any
brim; but then again they carry gingham UNI
brella, generally of the g Camp description,
which gives them the appearance of great res
pecta5ility; and for the same reason that the
frez has been adopted, the more advanced de-
light in patent leather boots, exceedingly COM
Portable on hot day for walking upon pave
ment consisting of large round blocks OF stone,
about the size of a mans head, with very wide
inerstices, so that the walker is sure to slip into
dust or water, or a fine stiff mud. The civiiza-
tion of the Turks is very like their costume.
You will see man with an enormous turban, a
long beard and pipe, and furred pelisse, fin
ished off with pair of white stockings and cos
termonger's boots.
