A DABINU JOUILNPLLIBIr.
Another Lsinterne Excitement in Paris
A Paris correspondent gives the following
account of the persecution to which Henri de
Rochefort, the brilliant young journalist, is
_subjectecibyiherG overnefient. ac tion of
_Napoleon and his miserable agents is simply
infamous, and cannot fail to enlist for Roche
fort the sympathies of the French people:
.On going to a bookstore for my Lanterns
on Saturday, I was informed that I could not
have it, as all the copies of that day's issue
which had not been sold before 11 o'clock,
had been seized by the Police. The excite
ment occasioned by this proceeding was very
great, and I never saw anything litre the
snxietrmanifested to p eurtt a copy-othe
condemned number. Not I satisfied with
stopping the sale of it,the Sergens de Police
proceededlo the extreme of arresting passen
gers in the 'Street, and forcibly depriving them
of their copies, which were easily recog
nizable by their red covers. In several in
stances a violent resistance was offered to
this arbitrary proceeding, but it only led to
the transfer of the recalcitrant to the nearest
Station-house. All this. of course, only in
flamed the general curiosity, add the copies
which had been sold before the seizure were
actively circulated from hand to hand, and in
this way I got sight of one of them.
•Your readers will naturally be - deairous of
learning the contents of a publication which
has so excited the susceptibilities of the Gov
ernment. I will give them to you in as brief
a form as Possible:
"I make no difficulty in avowing," says M.
Rochefort, in commencing his usual weekly
confidences to the public, "that lam a regular
imbecile. They laid a trap for me; and I
walked into it. No one knew better than I
however, how little diffident this Gov
ernment is as to, its choice Of ixieituti; But
we are bound to render justice even to those
who do not render it to others, and I
must acknowledge that the blow was a suc
cess.
"To descend to particulars; a mission was
given to two agents of Police to state in print
that I was living at the expense of a woman
of the town. • only aurrinare nu reply, - '
but I had difficulty in resisting a strong incli
nation to laugh. The two agents then stated
that 1 was merely a bastard, and that the
name I bear never belonged to me.. To this
I opposed the same silence, followed by a
shrug of the shoulders. The authorities natu
rally became impatient, and asked how it
happened that this calumny, on the exaspera
tion of which they had reckoned, gave no
sign of existence. The two agents now de
clared, with the authority conferred by a card
ornamented with an eye in the centre, that I
had been sentenced for swindling, and that at
two differerent periods. I maintained my
equanimity and continued- to regard
the mystified policemen with a tranquil look.
What did they then do? They proceeded to
exhume my mother, my poor, dear mother,
who died without suspecting that out of
hatred - to herson her memory would, under
the manifest protection of authority, be con
taminated by infuriated -drunkards. As an
illicit manceuvre. is there not sufficient in it
to cause astonishment even in,the memoirs
-of Vidocq? Well, the manufacturer of the
lies, encouraged by the Government and by
the tribunals, has placed on sale productions
of a quality still more rare. My daughter,
who is not quite twelve years of age, and
whom I had succeeded in rearing through
the early struggles of a student and artist
life was, I learned, to be made wretched by a
libel which these scorpions were en the point
-of publishing, and whose infamies they pro
posed to send to her at her schooLthe address
of which - they knew,
"It is here that my rule of imbecile com
mences. I desired to stop at any cost this
scandaL lhastened to the establishment of
the printer who had the libel on his press. I
tried to make him comprehend that as he
had knowingly and willingly made himself
the accomplice of these vomiters of insults,
he owed me a reparation. He laughed in my
face and refused it to me. I struck him,
.and
so it happens that I, the defamed in my honor,
in my name, in the persons of my mother
and my daughter, find myself sentenced to
four months' imprisonment. The game is
played.
-Four days previously M.Albert Wolff,out
raged by the same agents and in the same
manner, obtained against his defamers a con
. demnation to one franc fine and one franc
damages. From all this it is clear that when
a man dragged through the dirt for three con
secutive months appeals to the iribunals, they
allow him a franc of indemnity. When he
does not apply to them 4 they sentence him to
four months' imprisonment."
I give the above in M. Ronhefort's own
words,
for it states the case exactly, as be
tween him and the Government. In the re
cords of political persecution there never was
anything more abominable than the manner
in which it has been attempted to stifle in his
person the voice of a powerful opponent.
The assassins of character who have thus as
sailed him had no other motive for their
attacks than the miserable pay which they
derive for their calumnies. They succeeded
in their object of bringing this intrepid writer
within the clutches of the law, but iu so
doing they have only rendered themselves
notorious and brought discredit upon their
employers. The vindicatory passages quoted
above are not, however, those which contain
the sting that has led to the seizure of the
kanterne. After stating that his journal
never had so large a sale as for the number
which contained the cominuniqut: which
the Government had compelled him to insert,
M.. Rochefort says that he was half Inclined
to reinsert it in the succeeding one.
"I abandoned this idea," he adds, "only
because I did not wish to disquiet the well
known modesty of the Government, which,
in a journal entitled the Al - oniteur, daily de
clares that it is the object of the admiration
of Europe, whether civilized or otherwise.
That is a splendid success for the Minister of
the Interior. Ido not exactly know how t.)
address to him my request, but now that I
am able , to satisfy myself as to the degree in
which he has the ear of the public, if he
would be good enough to send me from Ulna
to time small and varied extracts from • the
history of his life, with details regarding his
sojourn at college, the number of the masses
that he has heard, his first steps in the world,
and his-relations with the Society of St. Vin
cent de Paul, I would be but coo happy to in
scribe him on the list, heretofore almost en
tirely virgin, of my collahorateurB. And,
after all, how can we count on the future?
you believe that a power is made of wrought
iron, and you suddenly find that it is only of
cast metaL This evening you have fireworks,
rejoicings, acclamations and promises of eter
nal devotion; to-morrow nothing is left of
all this, except, pet - baps, a stoutfiacre,whic'n
conveys the acelairrie v d to llavre, where they
secretly take the steamer for England. Let
M. Pinard reflect on these facts. He has
not to do with an ungrateful man, and what
ever may be the political (if not«,nt( nt which
awaits him, he will al w4.ys be sure of receiv
ing at my hands five sot.* a line and a four
pound loaf every Friday. , !'
M. Rochefort then proceeds to ridicule the
approaching:lBte of - The 15th of August, and
referring to an assertion of M: Gregory Ganesco
that the famous letter of the 19th of January
was the result of a consultation between the
Chief—of—the-State and Messieurs de la Val
: lette and Rouher, he says :
"The two latter declared that with the sys
. - tem of suppression applied during the last
fifteen years, the reign or the Prince Imperial
became an improbability bordering on thl
impossible. Struck by this doublesoplica-
Lion, the Emperor decided on establishing
liberty in its ' nteubles, (furniture,)
and what men/des? A sideboard in wal
_nut,_a_couple_of_clutirs_and_a_water_j_ug—Tikus
this abolition of the preliminary authorization,
this right of reunion, which as yet has only
benefited the Sergens de Ville, we owe to
a child of twelve years old, who at that time
was only ten. And if instead of a boy Napo
leon lIL had had a girl, we would still be
plunged in the darkness of suppression after
a couple of warnings. I have occasionally
heard a song entitled Crest your l'Enfant. I
should never have thought that this refrain
• ould - one - day hay e - had-en -- influence - on - the
future of my country. It is the Verre d'eau
ot Scribe, or Petites causes et grand.? effets.
It is true that if the causes be small, the only
`great effects of the new law on the Press are
to be found in the condemnation of M. Soles
Ferry and M. Delceluze to enormous fines,
and as formidable months of imprisonment."
M. Rochefort then ridicules the letter re
ported to have been written by the Emperor
to the Marquis de Caux, an in which it is
stated that the bridegroom could not bear the
title of Equerry to His Majesty as long as
Madame de Caux remained on the stage.
"What has become of that famous phrase,"
he asks, "which declares that the present
constitution is based 'on the principles of 'B9.
Are they going tore-establish castes? lam
willing to admit - that the Sovereign of a
nation, were it even as cascadeuse as
France, may establish a difference between
women of light and decent behavior, but the
honorableness and exemplary conduct of
Mlle. Patti being of public notoriety, it is
therefore not to the woman, but her profes
sion of dramatic artist that applies the dis
favor which the Imperial letter reflects on her
husband.
"This is a fact of the highest gravity, for
under a Government which obstinately
qualifies itself as Democratic, an entire class
of society is repudiated in , the person of this
charming young girl ,who represents it so
worthily._ It cannot be denied that this is
qua Ttifidie
are you, Lafeuillade ?
When,.however, people feel themselves so
strong and-of an origin so . profoundly aristo
cratic, they should at least accept the conse
quenceika-this superb disdain, and since they
refuse-their esteem to actors, it would, per
haps, be good taste to refuse their votes. Sup
pose that Napoleon UL were again to consult
the country, and that instead of obtaining
those eight millions of suffrages, of which
there has been so much question for the last
four years, there was wanting to enable him
to arrive at an absolute majority a single vote,
do you believe that he would not accept with
a feverish eagerness the vote of an actor,
which would be necessary to complete the
number exacted by the law ? There was, on
the marriage of Mlle. Patti, an excellent op
portunity to do justice in the person of one of
its most distinguished members to a profession
formerly looked down upon, and to affirm
thus the equality of all citizens, provided they
are honest and recommendable. But it ap
pears to be of a gentillunnmerie far superior
to declare that a singer is not a woman like
another, a. proceeding which has produced
the worst possible impression upon all except
ing myself, who have welcomed this blunder
with a lively satisfaction, for nothing is so
sweet as to see one's adversaries floundering
after such a fashion."
The entire winds up with a reference to M
Delesvaux, President of the Sixth Chamber,
and an ingenious application of the portrait,
drawn by Macaulay, of Judge Jeffreys, of
infamous memory. M. Rochefort naively
adds:
"I should like to believe that this sinister
sketch will never apply to a French magis
trate; but in any case what writer of our
country would dare to take his Judge and
judge him in his turn with this independence
and lucidity? As to the citizens of every
class who utter such bitter complaints in the
letters which they send me of the moral pros
titution to which the country daily delivers
itself, let theth take courage. France has
already fallen, I will 'not say lower, because
no one would believe me, but as low, or
nearly so. Nevertheless,our country—which,
says the poet,in a book which will last longer
than our Constitutions,
`Mesure en ces ardentes luttes
A is hauteur dee bonds la profondeur des chutes,'
—has not its muscles so used that it cannot
stand again on its legs. In the meanwhile,
as the same poet observes, with a few slight
variations:
'Repetons tons, Statair est grand, Pittard est
beau
Et laissons la pudeur an fond du lavabo.'"
Immediately after the seizure of the num
ber containing this bitter philippic, it was an
nounced by M. Rochefort in several of the
evening papers that it would be republished
in Belgium. Since then. he has left for Brus
sels. By some it is doubted whether he
means to return here, seeing that a sentence
of four months' imprisonment is suspended
over his head. As he has appealed from the
eludgment, and has therefore time to make ar
rangements for the production of his journal
in a place where it will not be liable to arbi
trary interference, it is probable that he has
left with that intention and no other. M.
Rochefort is not a man to shrink from his re
sponsibilities. Besides, no one is more fully
aware of the fact that his path, though a
thorny one, is that which conducts the most
surely and speedily to political eminence. M.
Rochefort is young, ardent and ambitious,and
he has never yet allowed, and never will al
low, considerations of personal danger to
stand in the way of his advancement. This
evening is fixed for his examination before 51
de Gonet, Judge d'lnstruction in the affairs
of the last seizure. There is no doubt that he
will be on band.
Madeinoiselle Georges and Napoleon.
[Tranelated for the Cincinnati. Gazette from the Liman
tagmorgen.]
A. few days ago they buried at Paris the
remains of one of the greatest tragediennes,
who - bad once played a brilliant part in
France, durin the most brilliant epoch of
her fatherland. A cotemporary and friend of
'Palma, she received an appointment as
"professeur" on quitting the stage, sufficing
to keep her respectability, but she, who had
been used to spend millions on diamonds, did
not know how to economize with twelve
thousand francs a year, and so she died poor
at an age of more than eighty years.
Let us look back to the period of her glory,
to her youth ! She was of German parentage,
although she never cared for the land of her
ancestors. The French papers always had
much to talk about her. Dumas and others
always spoke of her triumphs, and in these
remarks we are guided by their judgment.
Dumas tells us that toward the end of the
year ISuu, Mademoiselle Raucourt, who had
been the leading lady at the "Theatre- Fran
cais," gave some performances in the prov
inces. Although the Government was pretty
busy at that-time, it still took an interest in
art, and had authorized Raucourt to bring to
Paris.any promising pupil that 'she might
come across, where such a one could have a
yearly income of one thousand two hundred
francs.
Mademoiselle Raucourt really found a pretty
girl at Amiens, who looked fifteen, althotiga
she was not more than thirteen. She was of
splendid form, resembling the statue of Milo.
She was the daughter of a German musician,
Georges Weymer. The girl had a talent for

tragedy. Mademoiselle Raucourt saw her
act, was surprised, and demanded to take her
to Paris. The_parents gave their permission,
and master and pupil took their departure,
accompanied 'by the mother of the latter. •
She took lessons for eighteen months, dur
ing which time she lived—in a poor inn, situ
ated in _the "Clroise des Petits CI19121103,"
bearing the name of "Hotel de Peru." Rau
court was known to hate the male sex, and
no one but her mother dared to accompany
the pupil in her daily wanderings to her
teacher. In 1802 Mademoiselle Georges made
her first appearance. Her teacher sat io one
of the small private boxes, and frequently
called to her, "courage Georgy," (that was
the name she had given her.) The debu
-tante-pleased-welL--She-played the - part - of
"Klytamnestra" three times in succession
with unbounded success, and the men were
enraptured byher beauty. •
The Court of Bonaparte, just forming at
that time, loved to loiter about tho corridors
of the theatres and operas. One night Georges
who had just got through performing the
part of Hermione, was surprised by her
"femme de chambre," informing her that
the Chamberlain of the first Consul desired to
see her.
The world says his mission was to tell the
pretty artiste that the first Consul was ready
to receive her at St. Cloud. Be this as it may,
it is certain that her friendship with Napoleon
commenced on that day, and although (as
ehe said afterward), he left her to become
Emperor, he always 'remained the greatest
admirer of the artist.
Napoleon left Paris to conquer the world.
Georges remained at the Theatre Francais.
So the year 1800 bad come, when one even
ing, on which she had to appear in one of
her bravura 'parts, the news spread that she
had disappeared:
The Emperor of Russia, thinking that the
Theatre Francais could well afford to spare
one artist, had, by diplomatic means, induced
Georges to go to Petersburg, as a revenge for
the battles lost at Austerlitz,Eylau and Fried
land. The first chamberlain of the Czar,
Monsieur de Nariskin, had prepared' for her
flight, which had succeeded in escaping no
The couriers at Paris were set in motion
to catch the renegade artist. When Georges
arrived at Kehl, the, courier despatch had
reached Strasburg. In spite of this she got
as far as Vienna. There the French Am
bassador demanded to have her given up.
Still she managed to reach Wilma, where she
rested, and then arrived at Petersburg, where
she was greeted with enthusiasm and appeared
in her greatest roles.
Napoleon was too busy to bother about the
flight of an actress, and so Georges remained
with the Emperor,where she gained diamondq
upon diamonds. Napoleon, in the mean
time, had changed matters considerably; he
had made his brother Jerome, King of
Westphalia; his brother Joseph, King of
Spain; his brother Ludwig, King of Holland;
his brother-in-law, Murat' King of Naples,
and his step-son, Eugene, Viceroy of Italy.
He hard been separated from Josephine and
taken Marie Louise in her place, and now he
invited the monarchs of Europe to Erfurt,
where he kept the promise he had given his
friend Telma to let him play to a parquet of
kines, and where he conferred upon Goethe
the cross of the legion of honor.
Four years later he made his entree into the
capital of the Russian Empire. When the
French actors at Petersburg heard of the
Emperor's arrival at Moscow, they eaw the
impossibility of remaining in the capital of
the enemy. They obtained leave of absence
and went - to Stockholm and thence to. Stral
sund. Here Georges was used as ambassador
courier. An adjutant brought her a letter
from Bernadotte to Jerome Napoleon,
King of Westphalia, demanding great secrecy
and immediate expedition. Georges took the
letter, hid it within her corset and departed
on her errand. Dumas speaktof this trip in
the following manner:
"On her lap she had a box containing dia
monds to the amount of 300,000 francs. The
diamonds in the box and the letter inside the
corset came within two days' journey of Cas
sel without. mishap. They journeyed on day
and night: the letter was in so great a hurry,
the diamonds were so badly frightened. All
at once they heard a fearful clatter of horses
in the night, and saw the shimmer of thou
sands of lances. A colossal hurrah was heard,
and they found themselves in the midst of a
troop of soldiers. Many hands were on the
point of opening the door when a Russian of
ficer appeared.
"Mdlle. Georges gave her name. Do you
remember that story of Asiost, and that en
graving representing the robbers upon their
knees? The falling upon knees here before a
beautiful young actress was still more natu
ral than before a poet of forty. The enemy
was changed into a protective escort, that did
not leave the pretty traveler until she was
under the protection of French Guards. Once
in their charge, Mdlle. Georges, the letter
and the diamonds were safe. They arrived
at Cassel. King Hieronymus was a very gal
lant, handsome young king, hardly twenty
eight years of age. He was in a great hurry
to receive the letter from the Crown Prince
of Sweden. I do not exactly remember
whether he received it or took it."
Md'lle Georges then went to Dresden. Na
poleon had lett St. Cloud on the 15th of April;
arrived at Mayence on the 16th, and reached
Erfurt on the 24th. The virginity of Napo
leon's glory was destroyed. The snow of
1812 had cooled all friendship. Prussia once
more stood up in arms. Saxony was recon
quered in one battle, and on the 10th of May
the Emperor made his headquarters the pal
ace Marcolini at Dresden. The Comedie
Francaise arrived, as did also at last Md'lle.
Georges, at midnigh‘t the 16th of June.
The next morning at 7 'clock Napoleon re
ceived her. Telma arrived twelve days later,
and Comedie Francaise was then complete.
There were performances from the 22d of
June up to the 10th of August. Every morn
ing at breakfast the Emperor received either
Telma, Mars or Georges, until they were at
last ordered to return to Paris immediately.
They obeyed. Then came the battle of
Leipzig. Georges reappeared at the Theatre
Francaise, in Paris, after an absence of five
years, upon still more brilliant terms. She
was more lovely than ever, and the applause'
tremendous. Napoleon commenced his cam
paign in 1814, and lost province upon prov
ince. His enemies marched into Paris and
Napoleon left for the Isle of Elba.
Telma, Mars and Georges were true to the
Emperor. The others, stars of the company,
went over to the royal party. Raucourt was
the first to have the eagle taken off the Em
peror's box. Those kings that had been pre
sent at the performances at Erfurt wanted
now to see the' 'same pieces at. Paris.' The
Court actors had to say, "Long live the
King," when they first appeared. Sme of
them even wore a, bouquet of lilies of their
own free will. Georges mourned fPr the
banished Emperor. There, on the 6th of
March, 1815, the incredible report spreadthat
the Emperor had comenshore. LYons opened'
its gates to him,,eagles again spread through
out all France, and waved ;tom the, steeples
of Notre Dame.
The Tuileriesowere,vacated on the 19th; on
the 20th Napoleora _tirrival. was expected.
Everybody displayed violetsr everybody,also,
knew the feeling of, Telma, Mars and
Georges, and Wherever they appeared deco
rated With violets - they, wereenthusiastic ally
cheered. • . . .
napoleon again took possession of the Tuil
eries, and complained that beat set of
furnitiiihad been soiled. The only thing
with which he reproached Louis w
that he bad found stems :of asparagus, on the
lounges.
But only the shadow of the empire had
returned. The battle of Waterloo was fought
and St. Helena became the grave of the con
queror of the wo4 .Rea - again took
the place of violett Georges, weeping,
went into the provinces, and did not again
appear until 1835, at the ago of 38 years.
When Napoleon 111. again built no the em
pire, he remembered the good faith the artist
had kept with his great uncle, and provided
for her in her old age, as she had saved noth
ing, and her'diamonds had disappeared to
gether with the charm of her name. A few

Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive enemlei
of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of th ,
organism undermines the constitution, and invites the at
tacit of enfeebling or fatal diseases, without exciting a
suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infec
tion throughout the body and then, on some favorable
occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous
forms, either en the surface or among the vitals. In the
latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs
or heart. or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows
its presence by eruptions on the skin. or foul ulcer.

Egypt,an 'Women.
The Egyptian women are , generallysup
pOsed in Earope - to be shut np in the harems
, — like slaves. subject to all the caprices of their
lords, witLont any society whatever. That
is far friln f)eing the case. They are cunning
-. _and - shrewd enouith to:learn, - as soon as_thef
are married, to make their lives pass away
pleasantly enough.. Being accustomed to
coutieement, and taught, from their earliest
days that it is their duty Co study the whitns
and fancies of those to whom they are to be
mauled, they seek to do so ; and by that
neaps possess great influence over their hus
bands, to main taro which is the sole maps,
lion of their lives. There aro more females
thart -- rnales — in — Egypt -- - - - - These--- may
be' divided into two classes, irrespec
tive of the black slaves, the native
born foreigners, among whom we class the
Georgians, Circassians, and Mingrelians. Tae
former are purchased by the grandees, and
people the harems of the princes and indi
viduals attached yo the vice-regal court, and
are easily distinguished by tan fairness of
their complexions, while the others are much
xlarker, and have pointed features. The for
'etgn women were born Christians, but were
wade to embrace the Moslem faith before bc-
ing brought into Egypt. Those in Turkey,
but especially at Constantinople, have been
ti ~,endowed with ideas and manners totally ilif
',ltrent from those of their ciwn sex in them re.
~.Spentive Countries... As they: know, 'as" wan
as they Wei the.. harems, that they are
destined to live in .opulence, and
that every respect Awn' be shown them.—
for I have. already pointed out, in "Harem
Life in Turkey Lind •EgYpt,P the etiquette that
the slaves observe-;to the princesses—the
. seeds of amibition.soon begin ~to be develokil
among-them, and;theybtsconuobigotsln their
new religion. The Turks take great (tare of
this kind of women. Tliosd who, by reason
. .
of their rank or the post that they occupy in
the Government; disdainorin allianee with a
.truesbom Egyptian woman, no matter of
whatever rank she may .be, generally pur

wben 'she has `obtained~ a, hold her
husband's affections = as gated by the
Councils 'Of the mether of :her, harem,
a very Machiavellian Princess—enters
heart and soul into, [otifies' intrigues. 'file
women are nut constrained in their tastes nor
in their habits; they eat, drink coffee and li
quors, and smoke to their heart's content.
Accompanied by their personal and favorite
slave attendant, by the head eunticinthey quit
the harem whenever they like, proceed to the
hanitnan thittli)—the gossipping ship of the
Orient—visit other harems. and go shopping
into the bazaars. They are entirely tree in all
their actions, and there is •no fear' of their
transgressing the'bchinds of decorum or eti
quette, for I can Safely say toot such
a line of conduct never enters the
heads of Moslem women. In the first place,
they arc too bigoted to eug3ge in
any liatßons Wiffiriilitiffdel: and &icon lly,
they know, from what they have heard from
their own mother the harem, and others,
the fate that awaits them if they were so ini
prude-nt as to commit such a suicidal act—
that death would be their punishment, as well
as that of their paramour. Their habitual
conversation among themselves is disgusting
beyond conception to European ears; but
they have been trained, up from childhood to
converse in that manner, without having the
slightest idea that °by so doing they outrage
the feelings of their sex; they do not think
that there is any harin in so doing, and all a
European Woman could say to them would
not convince them to the contrary.
The Egyptian women genemlly pass their
time in frivolities, except on certain days,
when they attend to their '2l - nage, as I have
already explained in "The English Governess
in Egypt," in pleasing and wheedling their
husbands,-studying their gastronomic tastes,
and satisfying their whims and capricei.
They delight in relating, stories themselves to
their ladies of the harem, slaves and eunuchs,
congregated of an evening Gn fumille, a kind
of coneersazione, or in listening to the songs
of the aimehs and their own slaves, having
their horoscopes cast, and asking their
mothers ofthe harem to interpret the dreams
they have had during their kel, as Joseph did
those of Pharaoh of old.
The splendid halls of "the mansions of
bliss" of the great resound also with Corn
plaints. One woman murmurs at her barren
ness; another at the favor bestowed by her
lead upon her hirbat fur the time, which
raises her jealous feelings to fever piton. A.
question of engrossing interest is ho v they
can obtain heirs. Most or the Turks adopt
a rigid system of economy as regards the pin
money which they allow their wives, and
the baksheesh they bestow upon thnir
Minds, slaves, eunuchs, and other attendants.
Many limit their toilet expenses to a fixed
persum 117C11:0-711, and do not allow
them to give too expensive fantasies. The
Memlook women, on the contrary, who pos
sessed large landed 'property, weze very
wealthy, and disbursed large sums most gene
rously—expended their paras with no
sparing band for fantasias, and lived in such a
state of independence that they had quite the
upper hand over their husbands. A Alem
look bey's wife was like a 'queen in her
harem, and hundreds of the commonwealth
flocked to them for protection, for appoint-.
ments for their husbands, lathers,or brothers,
and sought their influence to shield them from
the oppression of the beys; but that state of
things is a record of the past.
nandoPs Autograph of the 40 .11assiatt.”
An article by Mr. Joseph Bennett, in the
current number of Maentiliun'B Magazine,
has called attention to a recent publication
which otherwise seemed in danger of being
overlooked. Next, but hardly next, to
"Shakespeare" and "Paradise Lost," Handel's
"Messiah" is peculiarly the property of ,Eng
land, and it is hardly too much to say that it
is as highly' prized and reverenced as any
product of literature or art in this country.
It belongs to both literature and art. The
words of the oratorio arc compiled from the
Scriptures at once with such force,' anon deli
cacy, and such exquisite propriety—they
tell the story of the greatest life in the world
so completely and yet scfreoncisely, that the
Dean of Westminster has not bsen far wrong
in speaking of them as an inspiration.
That this should have been done by a foreigner
who, to the day of his death, never succeeded
in speaking anything but the most grotesque
German English; a man, moreover, englged
in the - management of opera houses, public
gardens, and other kindred speculations; -a
gross, rough, not to say coarse and passionate
man, who ate the dinner provided for four,
habitually lost his temper, and mingled his
talk with strange oaths—is surely wonderful.
It is no exaggeration to say that to the man
or woman who knows the "Messiah" the
significance of the words is very greatly
increased_ and deepened._ _Anything that can
familiarize us with this wonderful work or
throw light on the process of its formation
should be welcome And this means for
an increased appreciation - of _the -- "Messiah" -
and of the genius of the author has just been
'given us. The Sacred - Harmonic Society,
incited thereto by Mr. Bowley, who is at once
the treasurer of the society and the_ well
linown-manager-of_the_Handel Festivals at
the Crystal Palace, have, by the gracious per
mission of Her Majesty, put into' the hands
of every one willing and able to disburse a
guinea an exact facsimile of the original au
tograph manuscript of the "sacred oratorio."
The facsimile is made by the same ua
erring process of photolithography that
has already reproduced the first folio
of "Shakespeare" and the "Doinesday
-:Book" and contains every blot, every smear,
every erasure, every false start, every correc
tion of the author exactly as they stand in the
original manuscript at Buckingham Palace.
Here we may read with our own eyes the ro
und of the all but incredible fact that this
masterpiece, which has been the delight of
millions during more than a century, and will
remain the delight of millions more for centu
ries to come, was thrown on the paper in the
- space of twentY=three - daya. — There are - dis= -
closed the haste, almost the rage, with
which some of the noblest and most mas
sive passages were dashed d )wn ;
the momentary hesitation here, the in
stant improvement there'; the swift
inspiration with which the pathetic
air, "He was despised," and that immortal
strain of hope sing confidence, "I•know that
my Redeemer liveth," were indited, without
hesitation, exactly as they now stand. All
these things, and much. -more, with the ftc-'
simile on one side and ad competent and
thoughtful a guide as Mr. Bennett on the
other, we can enjoy- for ourselves, and we
can badly expiess a better wish for the ma
jority of our readers.than that they may so
enjoy it. This facsimile is a work of which
our generation—as It is the -first which has
had the power to dolt—may well be proud;
and we gladly introclude and commend it to
our readers, and more gladly as the proceeds
are to be handed to the Benevolent Fund of
the Sacred RarmOnic Society.
