another. We met there a company OF
Gipsies-yery merry and very saucy.
Do you know what an ARABIA is? l
will explain. An ARABIA is the height of
fashion and luxury, and employed in the
very best of society. 1t is clumsy car
riage, like a very old-fashioned family
coach, drawn by yoke of the white
oxen of Asia. The inside is covered with
thick bed, and the sides lined with
cushions. Here lies buried the Turkish
beauty, on her way to sip her coffee at
the "Sweet Water" Certainly nothing
is more redolent of lazy enjoyment than
Circassian dame rolling about in the
ARABIA, as her oxen, driven by couple of
turbaned Turks, or an Ethiopian slave,
slowlydrag the ancient machine along
the road.
WIVES AND THEIR COST.
Polygamy is approved by the Koran,
and is universal among the rich classes.
The best men in Turkey-the men who
have European reputation, like Rescbid
Pacha, the Minister of Foreign Affairs
have harems of wives and slaves, no one
can tell how many. The Sultan has in
Vulnerable wives, and increases their num-
Der every year. Tt is common practice
of the great Pachas to send him on every
occasion of the great festivals, present
of handsome young woman, whom they
have bought of her parents for this pur-
pose; and there is nothing disreputable
to them or to the girl in this on the
contrary, it is a high and enviable honor
to her.
And the Sultan can pay no greater
compliment to the proudest dignitary of
his empire, than to make him present of
one of his wives. I was assured by q
Greek physician, who had large practice
among all the nationalities of CONSTANT.
nople, that infanticide is fearfully preva-
lent. Female children are articles of
commerce. They are purchased by deal
ers when quite young, and carefully
brought up, for sale. These, however, are
not slaves, but wives. They are taught
to dance and to play on some musical ill.,
strument, but nothing more, and their
health is carefully attended to. The price
of wife-say from eighteen to twenty.
two years of age-varies from fifteen to
twenty thousand piastres that is, from a
thousand to twenty-five hundred dollars,
according to her personal attractions and
the supply of the market.
