AN ARABIAN SULTANA.-Mr. Sala's
letter from Algiers, which is published
in the London papers, has the follow
ing:
No, you are Africa, this, indeed, is
Alglers, and the Arabian Nights are
all around you. There goes the Sui
tena Scheherazade. Tho Sultana walk
ing resembles clothes bag bifurcated,
or pair OF well inflated pillows, sur
mounted by bolster, and covered
with mosquito curtain. The Sui.
tana may be one of the wives of
wealthy Morosco, or she may be a
washerwoman. She Maureque, and
her out door custom is invariable. 1t
consists Of q pair of very baggy galli>
gaskins, not at all of zouave cut, but
precisely that kind of Turkish trou-
sers which Mandane wears to the
opera of Antaxerxes. These, the
shintiyan of the Turkish woman, are
of plain white muslin; above is guam
tity ofsemi diaphauous drapery (which
cannot attempt to describe; over all
is thrown long robe, or femenine
togs, of very fine white linen or gauze,
called bak. Sometimes another
baik of somewhat stouter material
is worn oxor the ftst 1t is drawn
close to the form, and the general
composition of the pillow>case legs
and the bolster body is, in the entire
effect drol. The feet and ankles are
hare, and from the hue of those ex-
tremities the Algerine expert is, l
suppose, enabled to judge whether
the yelled lady is dark or fair. OF
course, l only presumed to look at the
Sultana's supporters for tho purpose
of verifying the fact that her feet are
thrust into wide shoes called sebabath
which again, are cased in looser slip
pers of yellow morocco, the papouch-
es or babouches.
You can see nothing uf the Sultana
Scheherazade's face but her eyes. The
upper baik comes we'll down over her
temples; then you have pair of big
black, sloe-like orbs, the lids so pros
longed that they almost meet, or are
darkened at least with kohl till they
seem to join. The rest of the fhce is
hidden>by handkerchief tied tightly
behind. Some Arab ladies are said
coquettishly to make use as veil OF a
handkerchief so transparent that their
features can be perfectly we'll discern
ed beneath; but with the vast majors
ity of the Sultanas have seen to day
the gauze mask has been reality, and
the concealment effectuaL I don't
wonder at this veil, answering to the
Turkish "yashmark," having been
through 80 many centuries, so obsti.
nately retained. A pretty woman
may let the passers-by know, even
through her veil, that she is comely
but an ugly woman is, by the mercifu
interposition of the knotted handker

Of Soldiers WoCnded.

NEW YORK, June 22-In the matter of
the riot on Staten Island last evening, it
appears that the citizens were giving an
entertainment to the 133d regiment, just
returned from the war. Some of the
members of detachment of the Goth,
guarding the cotton in the quarantine
grounds, came to the place of entertain
ment and were in friendly spirit asked
them. Afterwards discussion sprung
up in relation to the merits Of the two
regiments, in which the citizens partic-
pated A couple of the 66th got into a
fight getting the worst of it. They ran
to their quarters, got their muskets,
loaded them, fixed bayonets and return
ed, using offensive language. They were
set upon, their muskets taken away from
them and driven inside the gates of the
quarantine grounds. This enraged near
ly the entire detachment, and they took
their stand inside the gates with their
muskets loaded. By this time large
crowd gathered about the gates, and
stones were thrown at the armed soldiers
inside. They responded by firing, de
liberately and with much regularity

How JncL Became a Democrat.

The most bigoted and unreasonable
party ever met with was Jack =.
Jack was a red-hot abolitionist, and
his chief pleasure seemed in making the
fact as notorious as possible. HIS frlends
and associates, with one consent pro-
nounced Jack bore and a nuisance.
One day Jack met at the house of a
friend young lady of great personal
beauty and accomplishments Attracted
by her loveliness, and captivated by her
intelligence. he became assiduou- in
his attentions, forgot for while his
principles, and houtinquiri g what
might have been the political preference
of his lady y-love iInprudently proposed,
was accepted, and they were rried.
The wedding was over, the guests had
departed, and the happy pair had reSir-
ed to their chamber, and were snugly
ensconsed in bed. when Jack, in the
course of quiet conversation with his
wife, unwittingly alluded to his fayorite
subject, by casually speaking to him-
self as republican.
What" exclaimed his wife. turning
sharply and suddenly toward him, ARE
you republican.
Yes" replied Jack, Il am regular
ont-and-out, double dyed and twisted in
the wool"
Just double aud twist yourself out of
this bed then" interrupted his wife: Il
am a democrat, | am; will never sleep
with a man protesting the doctrines you
do"
Jack was rathersp speechless from amaze
ment. That the very wife of his bosom
should prove traitor was horrible; she
must be testing He demonstrated, but
in vain; tried persuasion, twas no go;
she was in earnest, aud the only alter
native left him was prompt renuncia-
ton Of his heresv or separate he'd IN
the other room.
Jack did not hesitate. TO ihjure the
established doctrines OF his party, to
surrender these glorious principles which
had grown with his strength to the mere
Whim and caprice of woman, was ride
ulous and absurd, and throwing himself
from the bed, he quit the apartme It.
In the morning she met him rs If moth
ing had happened but whenever Jack
ventured to allude to the night previous,
there was a laughing-imp in her eye,
which bespoke her power and extin-
guished hope.
A second time he repaired to his lonely
couch, and a second time called on his
his pride to support him in the struggle,
which he now found was getting desper-
ate.
The second day was repetition of the
first No allusiOn was made to the sub
iect on either side There was quiet
happiness and cheerfulness about his
wife that puzzled Jack sorely, aud he
felt that all ideas of forcing her to sur
render must be abandoned.
The third night he was alone! His
reflections were yet more serious than
the previous nights; what they were, Ell
course, was only known to himself, but
they seemed to result i'll something de-
cided for at about midnight three dis
tinct raps were made at his wife's door
No answer The signal was repeated i'll
a louder tone, still all was silent. A
third time the door shook with the viO-
lent attacks.
who's there ?" cried the voice of his
wife, as if aroused from deep sleep.

ever saw"
