Pay of Americans in the Turkish Army.
The American Colonies in the service OF
the Khediye of Egypt receive as pay forty
six guineas per month, with allowances Tor
quarters and duty in the provinces, Con
tracts are made for five years, with the
right of renewal on the part of the govern
mert. Travelling expenses from the nlted
States are paid, and in case OF an honorable
discharge the return expenses. with six
months full pay, are granted, 1t an ofhcer
is obliged to resign on account Oh the
climate, he receives Two months pay aud
mileage home. Ia case OF death rom ordl'
nary causes, the widow or family receives
one years full pay: but if killed i'll battle,
or wounded so that death ensues his widow
receives a pension equal TO half his pay,
which is continued until her death or re
marriage, when it is divided among the
children until the boys become OF age and
the girls marry. An oath OF fidelity
is eSacted, aud all American Oil,
GERS are obliged to renounce the
protection OF our diplomatic agents
abroad, and trust whatever causes that may
arise to the Egyptian tribunals. The most
prominent Yankee Colonies are Long, who
made the famous expedit on to Mtesa, and
whG-is now visiting the western countries to
complete preparations for another: Purdy,
who reached the capital of Dartur, and
found an abundance OF water IN tAe Nlle
between that point and his camp; and Col
ston, who is row penetrating the interior by
a still different route. Generals Stone. Cor
don and Loring are great favorites with the
khedive, and exceedingly efficient soldiers,
while Mitchell, the geologist, is so entranced
with his explorations that it would be ditfi-
cult to draw him away. He has discovered
TWO gold mines between the Red Sea and
the Nile that had been worked in ancient
times with the shafts still open. and he is
about trying his hand at mining Life in
Egypt is very exciting, but there is no open
ing for drones.-Frajtk LeSlie'S
