futile explanation of sitch an important fea

system of this Erni - tire lives patriarchal, and
the priests of Islam guarded against any in
troduction of that eudal aristncracy,:which
would form a secular pUwer in- the, State,
counterbalancing their,nwu, and at variance
with the Scythian denaocracy, which ever
came conquering from the desert. Such be
ing the views of Islami4m, the Sultana were
brought,to fall in with the.m, and adopt the
harem principle—with. little difficulty. very
probably.,
.This systeini . was necessarily per-,
severed in ; marriage with any Turkish la
dies was out of. the -4uestitfti. No Turk
would permit his daughter to cater the Serai,
a sort of slave in de midst of 'the.sfaves of
Georgia, Circassia or Italy. Forinerly, the
girls of the Italian consta—parucularly those
of Sicily—were preferred to all others. It
was found that 'Georgians and Circassians,
with their languishing black .eyes and lan

On his ascension to tie throne, the Sultan
sends all his father2s Womankiud liivay to
the Ed, Serat, or old Palace, and proceeds
to make his own selections. This Was said
to be dune by inarchind down a longlline of

But "the charming Mary Montagu, :,'j in one
of her letters to her sister, the Countess of
Mar, speaking of an interview, at Adrian
ople, with the ix-Sultana j flaked, says
this is a 'mistake. "The Sultana assured
me," she writes, "thatl:he story of the Sul

fabulous, and the mar Mer upon Ma l t occa

complimented on it by the Others, and led

wives of fifteen. • And not in this way alone
does the politic ruler seek, to hind . the litgh

hrides are greatly prized. Of .course thoSe

and counielloriof her sop, and "Mother of

the harem are kept very close. The 'Kislar
Aga himself, the sable guverner of the whole
palace, cannot come into the presence of the •
'ccidtn,' or the udaliks, till he is' sent fur, and
then only sees them veiled. A iordOn
male attendant* completely extends round
that "sacred" womanhood.. The doctors
who attend the:',estabhshinent, and who are
generally of the class of the. other serfs are
brought to after dr patient has been cov
ered up in a veil, ain when he wants to feel

one place to another-from Sumunir to Win

most igthoriiies on the subject,) that these

two to three hours. Two years afterWnrds,
in all the piovinces of the Romari empire.
there was obscurity from early" . dawo to

At the return of light, the min appeared first
in a crescent form,l then half itst 'lace

.About 53G, the sun Was oh.

iu the schedule, nearly prohibitory, of 100
per cent. duty, and other atheles in sched.
iffes (.1 .40, 20, 15., 10, and live pet
cent. duty. Leaving- spirits where they
were placed by the tariff of 18.1r3, the bat
reported by the majority .makes the pest
highest rate of duty ;!ii per cent. ; and as
rlris schedule embraces the principal duty
paying articles, the undersigued apprehend
so great a reduction of duty will give an un
due stimulus to the impurtation of such ar
ticles, which whilst it.,will tend to.theinjuiy
of A nierican industry employed in. the pro
duCtion of like articles, will have the effect
to countervail the main object of the bill.
which is to teduc.e the revenue, and not to
increase It. The like effect must be eziPee'tz
ettironi reducing the ditty on'the articles in
the lower schedule', net cad of inakingMany
of those articles tree. .
The tariff of ISlri contained, as has been
observed, eight schedulri, or different rates
of duty. The bill
,reporied.by the majority
proposes to .retain live ; thus keeping up,
against the lights of experience, the cutnpli
cations • til the present law, and the . evils
•which art known to flow !rum it—namely,
uncertainly 'iJf classification, coutrivances to
evade the proper duty, injury to the lair im
puittr, appeals from appraiscmeut and liti
gation, with the expense loss of time, and
discs tislaction these Controversies pro
duce.- All this evil is obviated by the single
expiclicut of a single rate of duty falling. upon
articles of general consumption, and leaving
free trum duty raw materials, anklet of lit
tle dutiable value, ac. &c., upon which the
duty is nut rerjuired by the wants of the
treasury, and therefore ought nut to. be
taxed. - -
By abridging the. free list, and. anbjecting
the articles which the department had placed
on it to the IoW rate of tire, ten,rand fifteen

in view, are wholly disregarded in the bill
