The ammal h 'ls bt en adopted by some of the inmates of tho h ouse, Tmkish Recreations· The traits of a people may often be judged as correctly from their pleHsures and recrea.·t ions, as from their history and serious conduct. In the freedom of the idle, pleasureseeking hours, a people will betray whether they are imaginative or matter-of-fact, whether they are gentle or rnngh, whether they are sober or bouyant of spirit. It is usual to find that a people who dwell in rugged, inhospitable lands, in regions of storm and gloomy skies prefer amusements which are hardy and active; while those who. dwell in eo.fter, sunnier climrs enjoy themselves in milder r ecreations. The old French chronicler, Froissart, observed, 1when in England, tha.t the English "took t heir pleasures very sadly." The English, and especia.ll;)- the Scotch, dwelling as they do in a capricious climate, are noted for the ruggedness and hardihood of their sports. The buoyancy and ga.yety of the :Fr ench character, on the other hand, are strickingly reflected in the lightness and sparkle which appear in all their favorite pastimes. The r ecreations of Oriental peoples are more interesting, because less familiar to us, than those of the Wes tern peoples; and afford quite as reliable a key to national character. A. recent sojourner in Turkey h as given a very entertaining account of the ways in which the subjects of the Sultan beguile their many idle hours. '.l.'he 'l'urks ar e a very indolent p eople. 'The languor ol their beautiful climate renders them prone to take the .world easily, to have frequent holidays, and to enjoy pleasures that soothe rather than exite. T h e principal public recreations of the T11rks are three. One is, to witness the burlesque acting of a company of men1 who do not use any stage fo r t heir preformances, bttt issue forth from behind a simple screen. These players go about from place to place, erect their screen in the open air , and give their preformances before a motly crowd of of t urbaned idlers who g{tther around them. Another favorite amusement is what the writer referred to calls the "Turkish Punch and Judy." This show, however, is given by means of ehadows cast upon a w h ite slieet. The effect of t his is very weird and striking. The third public recreation is t h e ga.therirg in the skeets, or on the open spaces, to liatcn to the thrilling tales of t he " ·medda.hs," or professional story-tellers. · The meddahs take the place, in Turkey of lecturers jn America. They r elate the most exciting stories, with many emphat ic gestures, contortions of face and modulations of the voice. They sit in the middle of an attentive circle and of t en rouse their hearers t o a high pitch of breathless interest and ex. citemem by their dramatic powers of na rr ation. The Turkish women are allowed to witnellS the b u.rlesque acting ; but they are forbidden to he present at t he Punch and J udy shows, and a t the story-telling of the med. dahs. The women, moreover, are not permit·.ea to at :end the theatres and . opera.houses. L ike all Orientals, the Turks are very fond of music, and of dnncing. But their airs, musical instruments and dances are entirely different from those of ' Vest ern E urope. They partake very much of the nat ure of the race as seen in otb.er ways. Tb.e Turkish music to Western ears sounds, soft, mel· odious and monotonous. '.l.'he T urks, on the other hand, regard E uropean music as too loud, boisterous and confused in souud. A choir, or an orchestra, in Turkey, a.Using and play the a~r only. . The Turkf like ceremony, and all their r ecr eations are pursued in a sedate, quiet, ceremoniou s way. The musicians, d ancers, s tory -tellers are u shered b efore and away from their audiencs with flourishes a nd obeisances, and are r eward ed with much sol emnity of demeanor. '.l'here ar e very few recreations in Turkey , in which men and women are allowed to take pa.rt in common. When both sexes witness t he same preformance, the women sit in a group behind a screen or t hick lattice, BO that they can witness w hat is going forward without seeing, or being seen by t h e m en. B ut in this ca~e, the besG point from which to view the perfor1nance is accorded t o the women. PERCH ERON HORSE S~ FRENCH COACH HORSES. SAVAGE & '.
