The - Exodus .of the Hadj. • Seen is the nOine, given to the vast caravan annu ally formed here for making the pilgrimage to Mecca. Damascus being'centrally situated and one of the strongest bolds of the Moslem faith 6. the. Ottoman Empire, has long been the - place of rendezvous -for all the Moslem pilgrims coming from the north and east, from the cities of Rums, llamotb, and Aieppci, and tom the great coustries of Armenia, Persia, As syria, and the adlaceneprovinces. Passing 'through tho . gate, I- entered the' great. thoroughfare known as the- Medan, or race-course, -both sides of -whith'as fits as the eye could reach wereiined with thousands of eager spectators pa tiently awaiting the hour when the grand procession should pass. I proceeded thioughthe crowd for a half an hour before t was able to procure a suitable standing.placefrom ivhich to . view -the scene: Doors, windows, and balconies thronged with. the teeming masses. The pilgrims hid already - taken up their line-of march, and indeed teveralthousanda•had de parted on the previous day; and encamped some hours distant from the city, awaiting the approach of the escort. Still, On they came, on camels, ?n hors. es, on asses; and On foot. Old men leaning on their staffs, young men', with spears and- blunderbusses, women and children, many with huge bundles upon their backs-and others with pans ) . kettles, and other artielei of culinary, apparatus dangling front their girdles, a motley Moss, clad, as pertinently says the old rhyme, Some in rags, and some in -jags, and some in velvet - gowns." - The great proportion were wretchedly poor, and their patched and tattered gar ments and elduted shoes gave ample evidence that they had come from'a "far country." The costumes were'variousiTurkigh, Arab, and llindoo; and here skid there were copspicuous the tall, red, cmdcal - sotthePersbsn, While the black goat's hair blank. 'se rude, rough Bedouins were to be seen on Ca Ca 1., tts 0 t every sr e.
