SWEET M01‘!-IEII.

The wild south-west monsoon has risen. With broad, grey wings of gloom.

While here. fronts out my dreary prison. I look as frotn a totnb-—Alss! My heart another tutnb.

Upon the low thatched roof, the rain With ceaseless patter fulls;

M. choicest treasures bear its stains; hlould gathers on the vvnIls—would heaven ' Twere only on the wells !

Sweet mother, I am here alone, In sorrow and in nin:

The sunshine front my heart has flown; It feels the driving rnitt-—Ah. tire! The chill, and mould, and rain.

Four lsggsrd months have wheeled their round, Since love upon it llllilte .

And everything of earth has frowned On thy r iiirilian child, sweet friend. Thy weary, suffering child.

I'd watched my loved one night and day, Ecarce lirentlting when he elttpt.

And us my hopes were swept away, I'd in his bosom wept—U, ‘ud! Ilow had I prsyed and wept!

And when they bore hitn to the ship, I saw the white sails spread.

I kissed his speechless. quivering lip, And left him on his lrud—Alasl It seemed a coilin bed.

When from my gentle sister's tomb, rig since. in tears. we canto, Thou suidst, “ llnw desolate each room!" \Vell, urine vvcrejust the same that day- The very. very sitiiie.

But for a bright-winged bird like him. To llllall his joyous song.

And prisoned in s 'u dim, Join D. arh's pulo phssnlutrr throng—-rny boy To join tlist grizzly throng!

0, mother. I can scarcely bear 'l‘o think of this to-day‘

It was so exqnisitsl fuir, That little furrn of olisy-my heart Brill lingers by his clay.

And when for one loved far, far more, Come thicltly-gathering tears,

My star of faith is cloud-rd o'er, l sinlt beneath my fears. sweet friend, My beavy weight of fears.

0, but to feel thy road srias tvriae Around me once again! It almost seems those lips oftlriae ight kin away the paiu—-n' ht soothe This dull, eoltl, heavy pain.

But, gentle mother, through life's storms. I me not lean on their.

old Turk is also exceedingly spatbetlo. He will

whole days in astute or rather stupid silence. thinking tbat s res or Christians are made to work for him. while he has nothing so do for then. The old» Turk believes with all lib heart, in blsltoraet and the Koran. ' .

Ottoman Etnpire would be t ea e of resist’ Russia. and all its enemies.” Hepisua gross ruins! tare of ignorance, pride, superstition and indo lonce. But. at the same tints, the old Turk is tetapersre. honest in his word, siseere is his sets. open in his proceedings. He is sometimes capa- ble ef heroic devotion 5 be will eeerillee his pro- perty and lite for what he considers a just and hol cause. In l word. belies uncommon morality an integrity; he promises little and rarely; but you may trust in his promise.

The Turk of the new school is very dilbrent. He has travelled river 3 pun of weglorn Europe, has visited the German and French universities, and mingled with Christians in their stodiu a life; or if he has not left his native country, be has at least, learned the French language, read some olts. and knows something of European sciences. He heartily rejects Msltotuet and his pretended revelations. If he still professes tbs Mussulrnsn religion. it is through necessity. and hypocrisy is the rule of his existence. Hei. certainly more humane than the Maborritnedan fanatic; he esteetns Christians more, acknow- ledges the superiority oi‘ their civilisation, and is

' to imitate it as much as he can. is manners are more amiable. The foreigner esu easily entertain agreeable relations with ltiiu. But this half-civilised Turk is false. ltstlrorsl. peifitltous, and lying; he abandons himself to inrotnpetance. and has no higher rule of conduu than his personal interest.

Which of the two types is the best? I shall not decide; but, taken altogether, the are Turk. having defects which the or has not, still shows a respectable side; he ltsss kind ofeoas science. while the new Turk presents onl egntisl and passion, under the Isaak of deoeitfu amiabl-

try. The women of Turkey have been less in con- tract with Christian civilisation than the nets. l_‘hcir ignorance is extreme They are shapes- siru instruments of their lords and masters. ‘lie degradation of three women is so great that they do not even feel their bondage. When a Euro- pean lady interrogates them upon their condition, they express neither regret nor desire. recumrnenrlable trait in the Turkish women is their complete devotion to their children. It is lrvriclriiit: to see the reciprocal affection of the mothers and children. Since all their days are passed in the interior of their houses, the women concentrate there all which they possess of tender- ness and Ali ! if they would become Christians. how much they would contribute to change the aspect of the Ottoman Empire!

are very contradictory. Some of them represent the Turks as worthy of the highest eulogy; others give an opposite opinion. Travellers jisdue the Turks after their own passions and prejudice; not after a thorough scqniiinisnce with the people. They go to pzlll a few months at Constantinople. and the other large Eastern cities. without even liuving learned the languauu. They ure‘not ad- mitted iiiio the families of Mitliommedsrrs. Their domestic-life consequently escapes their observa- tion. 'l‘hey meet with adventurers. exception- ahle persons, with whom they converse for a short time; and then they return to the West. to publish. viith foolish confidence, their superficial itnptessiniie. How. then, can they lnrttieh_uu with correct information. _

One of the latest Englisli travellers has had the got-«I sense to say 2 “ After the first month of my residence in Constantinople, I could have express- ed, very decidedly, my opinions in regard to thr- iiisiitnll--irs and customs of the Turin.
