successive cdicts which crushed the Wah-
liabees, annihiated the Janissaries, and

new palace Of Dolmabaktche, the late
Sultan removed to the latter residence.

Tor the SUI giying (and unmarried Off
members of his fathers harem On the
death of Abdul Medjid himself the former
Inmates were cleared out and the ladies Of
his own late establishment installed in
Hlelr stead. These consisted offour k0din
,D'miis (or wives) aud about three hun
dred other females of lower haremic rank.
Besides this goodly company, the estab-
llshment included nearly one hundred
white and black eunchs and other servants,
the whole ol whom were in it when the
calamity ol Monday occurred.
The hire is said TO have originated in u
small kitchen attached to IL suit of apart
ments occupied by the fourth katltii, who
had barely time to hasten to the adjoining
rooms Of her late conjugal colleagues-ds-
turbed them at their after breakfast coffee
and chibouque, aud urge immediate flight
before the flames spread from her own
chamber to those of the other ladies' The
whole Of these, as also the other women,
eunnuchs, and servants, managed To effect
their retreat into the outer front court, and
there they were found half an hour later by
the hasnadur aSta (lady governess) of the
palace, who hastened from Dolmabaktche
to take charge Of the burnt out establish
ment. The whole were splendidly aud
safely removed in caiques and carriages,
first in part to some of the neighboring
harems, and finally in the course of the
afternoon to Dolmabaktehe.
Efforts were made to save some portions
OF the costly wardrobes, jewels and furni-
ture thus hastily abandoned, but with
hardly any success. The whole may be
said to have fallen prey to the flames.
Happily the old jewelled arms and other
precious antiquities which visitors to this
historic treasureho will remember, were
removed some months ago to Yeni kiosk,
moderate stone building on the crown of
the hill behind, which has escaped the
general ruin and there they and the silver
gilt throne which done duty at Bairam
under the "Beautiful Gate"-nearer still
st. Sophia-still safely repose. But the
old Scral itselfis gone and, rich as nearly
every court and chamber of it was in his
torical association, the e300, ,000-or there
abouts-intrinsic value Of the building and
its contents, is perhaps the least element in
the loss which its destruction entails on
Stamboul.

SOUTHERN THEOLOGY.
IFrom Id London star. Augn.l 1g.l


God is again with us |" exclaims the
Confederate Commander at Charleston,
inclosing a dispatch announcing the re-
pulse Of an attack upon Fort Wagner.
We will not be tempted far into the line
OF observation suggested by this arbitrary
assumption of the Divine presence and
favor. But it may be remarked that
General Beauregard evidently considers
the Almighty as an inconsistent ally, not
not always found on the side of the South,
and as making himself known only by
victory The notion is essentially a
heathensh one, though il prevails very
much among Christians ofall communities
We recognize higher conception of the
Deity in language like that of President
llineoln's address on the Fourth of July
An acknowledgement of justice and
mercy in disaster as well as in success,
and of the duty of acquiescence in the
evident ordinations of Supreme Wisdom
The theolOgians of the South are rather
of the old Roman type. They refuse to
acquiesce in any arrangement that does
not imply the superiority Of their own
race to all principles of government, all
compacts and laws, all the institutions
and attainements Of civilization They
scof' at the idea Of equality among human
beings even of the same color. They
maintain the natural subjeetion, not only
of men with black skins, but of men with
hard hands and empty pockets. The
possession of land and money is essential,
in their view, to the right even of personal
freedom. The poor they rank with the
slaye-born. The traders and husbandmen
of the North they despise for the industry
that makes them strong in battle as well
as rich in all the arts Of peace And the
one virtue that attracts the symathies of
the world to the cause of the South is the
fortitude that bears up against defeat
even though defeat, according to the Beau
regard theology, signifies the absence and
displeasure of the Lord of Hosts
