Peep Into a. TuAlliNh Hareem.
BY MM. SARAH BA RCL AY •JUHNSON
The following iuterestine: nocount of Miss
Barclay's visit to a Turkish Barbera will ho read
with interest. Miss Barelay resided four years
in Jerusalem. Tho necorrirtilyi article is from
advance sheets of r“: 17 k, be that lady, en
titled " Hadji in Syria."
It was with no hitt iiieectre that I accepted
an invitation tr, , rn the fATII y rf the Bash Catib,

to spend a day with fanny. They had proved
themselves 1 --roe apart from this

the eye, with its crystal urn and amber mouth

variety to the LI pullet-ally discuss

proved them; and her conversation showed that
she was conversantsath the Koran and other`
teat• books c: horA - na frith. In addi
tiox• to this, a pi !grit:llll.l44f! to Mecca, and a
hand ever ready to want., of the poor,
have secured for her a n t , nrea , l fame.
About goon dinner V/ , tuutiunced ; not hi:w

face, and observed the usual ferni.3 of prayer.
A large round stool r with pearl, and
upon it little dishes: in vat bit; wore tempt

jellies and soups co. posed of a variety of nuts.

Having done full justice t - 1 our elegant little
dinner, the luxurious 114xtc we-' resumed, and a
warm discussion cute: - : il upon as to the manner
of spending the afteriiiicia. The bath was pro_
po ied by some, Luta dissiinting voice was heard
from the seat of honer, the chief lady
gracefully reclined, in favor of music and danc
ing. A messenger TeV.I., accordingly despatched,
for tamborines er,il .1 inciag women—for in the
East dancing is .]ii - i.insidereil far beneath any but

undulating movements of the bely, not ungrace
ful, and accompanied castanets ftrid tho tam

My European dress caused them as much
amusement as their cuul , apiirtrel afforded me,
and they were not st'stisfiiiii until we had ex
changed costumes. A mirror was brought into
requisition, in which they wi"nderiugly surveyed
the change wrought by th A large num
ber had assembled to see the lady from the "new
world," and they - were very curious to know
something about the manners and customs of my
country. Great wits;heir surprise on hearing of
the liberty enjoyed by their western sisters,which,
strange to say, although 1 used all the terms of
enthusiasm my litiovi slit ge of Arabic could com
mand, they did net seem at !ill to covet. - They
could not conceive of :i. vtris,,an possessing soul.
On flaking one of them what would become of
her after &nth, site replied, hzt ! be put un

husband," said I, "r:11 he I,sldofd - f - s - , 1 to the same

pureit. of (Mierit. pieiri• There were few beiddee
these with ;my pret i nir i lium4 t, bo,atity. Nearly
all, however, had the eye so often
apostrophized by the p:et.

them my own glc:ious civil and religions

leading cause of their degradation—the tyranny
exercised over thirri by their hust,ande, who can
put them away for 5 - ..ny every reason, and

I can but feel of de••tiedt indignation
at the ptiiof,l divetiou quite a pretty
young girl, Ali t W 3.9 illh v , reed by her
ht3rJ hetateci husband, 1 , 4,.tr0 either of them
was twelve years of age, simpl:. bc•ceuse he saw
a more beautiful girl, mid wus unfortunately
able to buy her. Oh inexpressible, and
by us, inconcoivsb!s wrerch , -dness flowing from
this awful traffic in tomato tlesh—the burning
shame and crying sin (..f Orie tam' hi t Love, of
Course, io a plant that thr,ve in no such
Imleed, it seems r I. rather an exotic in
the Orient at this day, cult ivo.tod only here and
there as a mere hot-houtle plant.
While memory performs her functions, I shall
never forget the impression made on my mind,
when witnessing the angni , h of a poor girl, at
she went along weeping to the house of a brutal
old one-eyed monster, who had bought her for his
pandemonian hareem. Nor is it the father and
husband alone that thus ip - annize over the de
graded women of the ea . s , t. The authority of the
brother, in the event of the death of the father,
even though the mother i still liVing, is quite as
absolute. He can beat them w!thont Inert - 7 and
with impunity, and though he may be .ytlhl.ger
than his seven sistcrs, it is he alone that•sells
them to their beartless husb , mds, or in other
words, to the master who wilt give the most for
them.
Happily now, however, this is rather a rare
case, owing to the asceneleucy ef Frank induenee.
Indeed, the Orientals are extremely impressible
by the example of their LIOTO civilized neigh
bors. Several int:We:its En-,y nerve to illuetrate
this. On first arriving in „leru , ,Llem, the male
portion of the family were always served first,
when we were handed refreshments at their
houses, but, seeing that we observed the very re
verse order of things, they soon imitated our
eiample. The veil has aiso often been stealthily
drawn aside, in imitation ci era. non-observ•
