V;.'' *f Frew dpi* avion Metropliien. , AMUSEMENTS °£ f ACA OF E. ’: Theapp reach to fee aftcient city of Grand Cairo i enchanting ;eontnted with (lie berrca sand* <ff Alexandria, it appear* a terrastriil paradise, and the traveller rests with delight nn the breed majestic hilh* ita vertJant fields tted their graceful palm* and V The City itself ia the most mwerable place, and, although containing a population of MUt single street that in Europe would be deemed worthy of that appellatioh. Moat of the public buildings, and even some mosque* of great magnificence are situated itr mere lahOfc while the dirt and nibbieh with which they are encumbered render walking almost impossible. What moat atirprioes the European at Cairo are the singu* far contrasts it every moment presents to nis view, and the opposition in the manners,costume*, garb, and complexion of the inhabit-, ants, to every tbing simiiarin bis own country. The Pacha resides in the citadel. The new palace that he has constructed is un- • questionably the nibst splendid ip the Turkish empire; its internal decoctions combine the magnificence of tlte east with the cltMical tatpe of the west—the talents of eome of the first artists from both,quarters having been employed in its embellishment, The only object worth seeing in the vicinity of Cairo, though Very different in their nature, sire—lst. The ancient sepulchres of the Caliphs, which by.£feod judges are considered aa the purest specimens of Saracenic architecture; their elegant domes peering ahove the groves ofevpfeaaea, and glittering in the sun, produce magicßl effect. 2d. 'Hie Shqba, the Ikvorite palace of Mohamed Ali,. about three miles from Cairn, on the banks of the Nile. The palace itself is small, but the gardeusare vast and magnificent. In
• the middle of air orange grove isa kiosquc, ot)e of the most elegant and fantastic creations, that, even in the east, the eye can light on. Ascending by a magnificent flight iff marble steps, you enter a beautiful portico; when this portico is past, a beautiful quadrangular colonsde of white marble is discovered, surrounding a piece of water, upon which there are two or three barges, gilded in the most cosily manner, and attached by silken cables to the colmuns. A highly ornamented ballustrade surrounds the whoie, from which several flighta of steps lead down to the water, guarded by statues of crocodiles, of colosal dimensions. Os this colonade are several splendid apartments, the entrance to which is concealed by purple curtains of silk and gold, that beautifully contrast with the dazzling whiteness of the marble columns. ' \ v; ( It is here that the Pacha come* to repose from the toils of the IX van, among hit women. Happy the Circassians who are admitted to the kkwque—it is considered as the highest mark of favor that their haughty masters can show them. The Pacha takes great delight in rowing them about the piece of water, and, on reaching the middle, he upsets the bark, lightly clad in a calico caftan and a juba. He has no difficulty'in reaching the colonnade by swimming, whet* ha throws himself on a heap of luxurious cushions spread' for his reception, and contemplates the scene with an air of mock gravity, while the black eunuchs are seen precipitating themselves from the balustrade into the water, to rescue the half-drowned Odaliskcc. a * v ' V, Vi: How strictly in character with Turkish barbarity iathia cruel diversion of the Pacha! Mohammed’s virtues, it would appear, are, afier all, but merely superficial, for if we only penetrate their polished exterior, We discover a cere of unleavened barbarism. Lika all his country men, he looks upon the loveliest part of the creation as the mere instruments of his brutal pleasures, as inferior beings is the scale of creation, brought into this world to please him by their beauty, and to gratify his caprice. v\ The court iff Egypt fully realizes the vivid descriptions of oriental grandaur and magnificence that we read of iu the eastern tales, and carries back the mind of the spectator to the days of Harou Alfachid. The Nubian guard, mounted on beautiful while Arabian splendid dress of scarlet and gold—and their jet black and glossy skins, the crowds of public functionaries and pages in their rich costumes; the pipe bearers, with the gilded appurtenances of their office, present an ensemble of oriental and picturesque effect that dazzles the imaginalion. Mohammed Ali is both eeetly and magnificent in his habits; he is fond of fine ami richly caparisoned horses, and of lofty dromedaries, and ha spares ooexpense to gratify his favorite taste. The Court is never an brilliant as during fee feast of fee Beiram, when the-Pacha retires totho Shabara, and abut* himself up among his favorite women. At this time, the apartments are brilliantly illuminated, the colonnade filled with the Pacha’s officers —some reclining, smoking on the rich divans, others conversing, and examing their costly arms. At night, wheo the moon rises, silvering with her rays the gleesy surface of the placid water in the centre, you may behold groups of young Turks, in their blood red shawls, casting an envious huff voluptuous, eye on fee element, still wkrai fcom the nftnrmr offer beautiful Circasiant; while tho braes* (Xfe fee MMo wafts the sweat perfumes, Aigf fee air resounds with lbs delicious mssond Os Mosart end Rossini, Stayed by the military bands of tho ffccha. The effect of such a stare is more in eiwraclermith the legends of feiry fend and remanes than with dm sober realities of the nineteenth century. 7e obtains eloar view of cotemporary history** always difficult. hut fee future histo-

But the most important feature ih fee history of Mohammed’s career is fee labors of two English Engineers, by boriify.have discovered water i severe! places of the desert. The absence of feia clement in those immense regions has been the greatest berriorto the civilization of Africa, and directly proves how correct were the conjectures (ff many learned antiquarians, feat the ancients were acquainted with the art of procuring this necessary element. Indeed, it would be difficult to account otherwise for the immense and magnificent ruins that strike the eye of the traveller, in various parts where, at the present day, no water exists. '' \/- v : -“' tire person of Mohammed Ali; is imposing; a dark piercing eye, a clear marble oriental complexion, a tong white beard that imparts a patriarchal air to bis whole exterior, and a benignant emile. The spectator, while gazing on him, can scarcely imagine that he is looking on a man, whoconceals the most profound dissimulation under the guise of frankness, possesses steadiness to pursue bis ends, flexibility to carry his means, and the art of coloring his own ambition with the roost specious pretences of justice and public Utility.
From the Poughkeepsie Republican. SPEECH OP BLACK HAWK. You have taken me prisoner with all my warriors. ' I am much grieved, for 1 expected, if I did not defeat you to hold eat much longer, and give you more trouble ‘before I surrendered. I tried hard to bring you into ambush, but your last general understands Indian fighting.* The nrst.one was not so wise. When I saw that I could not beat you by Indian fighting, I determined to rush on you, and fight you face to face. I fought hard,, But your guns were well aimed. The bullets flew like birds in the airl and whizzed by OUT ears like fee wind through fee trees in the winter. My warriors fell around me; it bfgen to look dismal. I Saw the evil day at hand. The sun rosedim on us in the morning and at night it sunk in a dark cloud and looked tike a ball of fire.— That was (lie last sun that shone on Black Hawk. His heart is dead, nod no longer, beats quick in his bosom. Heisnowapris oner to the white men, they will ando 4 with him as they wish. But, he can stand torture and is not afraid of death. He ia no coward. Black Hawk is an Indian, He has dona nothing for which au Indian ought to be ashamed. He h*> fought for bis country-men, the squaws and papoosos, against the white man, who came year after year to cheat them and take away their lands. You know tho cause of our making war. It is known u> nil white men. They ought to ,be ashamed of it. The while men despise fee Indians and drive them from their homes. But the Indians are not deceitful. The white men speak bad of the Indian, and look at him spitefully. But the Indian does net tell lies; Indians are not drunkards ;-Their wives arhonest: Indians do not steal. An Indian who is os bad as the white man, could not live in our nation, he would be put to death and eat by fee wolves. The white men are bad schoolmasters: they carry salsa Indies and deal in fals actions; they smile in the (ace of the poor Indian to cheat him; they shake them by the hand to gain their confidence, to make them drunk, to deceive them, and ruin our wives. We tolcfihem to let us clone and keep away from us; but they coil themselves among us like the snake. They poisoned us by their touch. We were not safe. We irtod in danger.— W were become like them, hypocrites and liars, adulterers, lazy drones, all talkers and no workers. ■■ We looked up to the Great Spirit We went to our great father. We were encouraged. His great council gave us lair woids and big promises; but we got no satisfaction: Things were growing worse. There were no deer in the forest. The eppoesum and beaver were fled; the springs were drying up, aod our squaws aod papooses without victuals to keep them from starving; we called a great council, and built a large fire. The spirits of our lathers arose and spoke to us; and told us to avenge our wrongs or die. We all spoke before Urn council fire. It was warm and pleasant. We set up the war whoop aod dug up the tomahawk; our knives were reedy, and the heart of Black Hawk swelled high i his bom a, when he led hi* warriors to battle. Ha ia serisfoni, He will go le fee world of sptrita.cootemed. He has done fcis duly. His fefeu will meet Mm there and commend him. Black Hawk isa true Indian, and disdains leery like* woman. He feels for his wife, his children and friends. But he does not care for himself. He cares for his nation and fee Indians. They wiH suffer. He foments their fete. The white men do not aaelp the heed; but they do worst-*they pofoot the heart, it is act pore wife them.
Hieeeuntryntei will nethescalped,but they will iq a few tear* become like the white men, so that yju can’t trust them, and there must be,as in fee white settlements, nearly as many riflfceri as men, to take care of them end keep themyi order. Farewell mynltiaa! Black Hawk tried 'to save you, and sttogs your wrougs. lie drank the Wood of some of tho whites. Ho has bean taken prisoner; and hia plana are stopped. He can do no more. He is near hi* end. His wis setting and will rise no more. Farewell tc Black Hawk.
