Slavery In the East.


There are 80 many thousands of
slaves within the Ottoman empire
that the Shereeah has deemed it
necessary to form special laws for
them, from time to time, as they
can not come under any ordinary
category, aud among them the fol
lowing are noteworthy: Although
the slave is tho property of his
master, he can not be seized for
debt, nor can he be sold or given
away after he has attained his
eighteenth year. The only dispo.
sition his master can make of him
is to give him his freedom, and un-
der no circumstance does the law
sanction his being lent for any pc.
riod to another harem. Laws have
been passed as well for the protec.
tion of the master also. Thus, q
slave is punished for neglect OF
duty, for culpable negligence, and
for conspiring against his masters
honor in allowing the sanctity OF
the harem to be violated, and al
though these eases are rare, such
culprits are severely punished by
tue State. AS q rule they are
more than jealous in the perform
ance of these duties, rs Sir Henry
bulwer, who was, few years ago,
her Britannicss Majesty's Embassa'
dor to Turkey, learned to his cost
Sir Henry was going in state to
visit the Sultan, and OH alighting
from bis carriage, was proceeding
toward the chief entrance of the
seraglio, accompanied by the at
taches and suit of the embassy

ford, who was represented there
by a bust, or rather by the wig
which crowned the bust--a precise
reproduction in stone Of the very
wig for which the spendthrift bar
onet had given $500. Hard by
this bust, circa, 1S47, stood two
youths as spendthrift and impecu-
nious, of the genius loci, disconso-
late and in a great straight. They
were Woolwics cadets, bound un.
der appalling penalties to be at the
barracks at an hour now but too
near. To get there by foot, lm-
possible for lack of time-by boat,
impossible for lack of money.
Therefore they stood most defect
and wretched under this bust and
opposite an orator who, from an
inverted tub, was preaching to a
market crowd on the subject of
charity. The sermon done, the
preacher, like that Persian who
was SO moved by a sermon on char
ity that he rushed forth to beg from
the first man he met-the preach
er, we say, similarly impressed by
his own eloquence, went around
with the hat, and presented it
among the rest to our vacuos via
torres. The irony of the insult en-.
ragged the one, but inspired the
other. "Look here ~ be said in a
hurried whisper to his friend, "I'll
preach while you hand around the
hat. Nod when you have got oul
fires" So saving, he sprang upon
the inverted tub and preached a
heart.shaking sermon on the doom
of the wicked. SO spell.bound
was the audience that his friend
with difficulty diverted their at
tention to his held out hat. AZ
last. however, he was able to sig
nal the news by nod that ii held
their fares in hslf.pence; and the
preacher, breaking short off in the
midst of an impassioned appeal tt
his audience to escape from the
wrath to come, sprang from the
pulpit and through the confoundet
congregation to make a rush with
his friend for the boat. This ready
and apt preacher was Jas. Payne
aged seventeen.

Predicted Panic in Three Months.

well-known broker, who said: :" |

to get refreshed. He will talk to
you, however, on financial things,

said my broker friend.
"Who is the leader, thenYn
"Nobody."
swell, then, Gould has not been
entirely supplanted ~
No; but he cannot any more
carry out his programmes. He
has made q fervid effort to drive
up his telegraph and other stocks,
and they will not go up.n
"Why is that 7"
because the street is incum-
hered with too much property.
There have been listed at the stock
exchange in the past three years
moro property on paper than the
entire National debt of the United
States, taking out the amount paid

There is bound to be a panic in
Wall street, aud we have barely
escaped one twice during the pres

When do you expect that panic
to happen'"
at will be within three months
The whole market is bound to
break down, because there is nc
general public any longer dealing
in the street. Considerable orders
are given by rival spectators, but
they play backward and forward
