aro to bear such fearful witness to the
imbecility which the Emir denounces and
deplores as thesnre forpunner of the fall
of the last great tilatuitish empire. Apart
from the ctiiious interest whiCh attaches.to
the appeurancel - of the great , Paince ofi, the

Press, this letter has a striking value as . the
sad and deliberate verdict of one of the
ablest of living illohainmedans, upon the
condition of the faith which he. professes,
and of its votaries, as contrasted with the
state of Christendom. The Emir begins,
by complimenting the Arabian editor on
the wisdom he has sh'o'wn, in 'pointing out
that the obstinate prejudices, and the slow
adaptability to circumstances of the Otto

after which the meat is easily detached

After a thornugh washing in cold water, it
is finally boiled, and the pure butter rising
