been started, which the Sultan has most munificently headed with the sum of 55,000l; but it is calculated that the permanent establishment of the emigrants will cost the Government more than 1,000,000l.

The latter hope may have good foundation, but as to the former we must remember that the Turk is already more than half Circassian, through the continual mingling of that race with the Turkish on the mother's side. Another idea is that they may be profitably used to recruit the army; this will be a great benefit to the Turks, and we doubt not the greatest of boons to the hardy mountaineer, who may, perhaps, thus meet his oppressor and exterminator en equal terms on the plain
