Achmet i. ascended the throne in 1008. tie made war Bgainst Hungary, but without much success. He built a magnificent mosque at Constantinople. A plague visited that city durir.g his reign, which swept off two hundred thousand of the inhabitants. Mustapha II. reigned in 1619. He was • weak prince, and was twicfe deposed. Otliman II. reigned very young. He marched an army into Poland, but after losing eighty thousand men, was glad to make peace. Amurath IV. reigned in 1623. He took Bagdad after besieging it three times, but rendered his name infamous by the slaughter ol thirty thou, sand Persians after they had laid down their arms, and putting the defenceless inhabitants to the sword. Ibrahim next reigned, and was strangled for his cruelties and vioes. Mahomet IV. ascended the throne in 1649, and had u long and stir- J ring reign of nearly forty years. He made war against Austria and Poland, but was defeated by John Sobicski, king of Poland. Solymun 11. reigned in 1687, and Achmet II. in 1691. Mustapha II. made war on Hungary in 1697, but was forced to conclude a peace and to cede Transylvania, the Crimea and Azof. Achmet II. came to the throne in 1703 and had a stirring reign of twenty-seven years. Ha gave an asylum to'Charles XII. of Sweden, after the battle of Pultowa. Ho made peace with Peier the Ureal in 1711. He made war with the Venetians in 1715, and recovered the Morea. Mahomet V. ascended the throne in 1730. He declared war against Russia in 1736, and against Austria the year following. This war was terminated by the peace of Belgrade, in 1739. Otliman III. reigned in 1754.— Mustapha 111. came to the throne in 1757. In a war with Russia, during his reign, Moldavia and Wallachia were several limes taken and retaken. So it seems the Turks and Russians are now fighling over the same bailies, on precisely the same ground, where they fought a hundred years ago. A Strange Race in California.

It takes its ribe in the mountains that skirt the right bank of the Rio Grande, Hows almost due west, and empties into the Colorado at a point on the same parallel of latitude with Walker's Pass. About one hundred miles north of this, and running almost parallel with it, is the river San Juan. Each of these streams is about one hundred and fifty miles long. Between them stretcheB an immense table land, broken occasionally into Sierras of no great height, which shoot up above the general elevation.— About half way between the two livers, and midway in the wilderness between the Colorado and the Rio Grande, is the country of the Moquis. From the midst of the plain rises abruptly on all sides a Butte of considerable elevation, the top of which is as flat as if some great power had sliced off the sum mit. Away up here the Moquis have built three large villages, whero they rest at night perfectly secure from the fierce tribes thnl live to the north and east of them. The sides of the table mountain are almost perpendicular cliffs, and the top can only be reached by a tteep flight ol steps cut in the solid rock. Around its base is a plain of arable land, which the Moquis cultivate with great assiduity.— Here they raise all kind of grain, melons and vegetables. They have also a number of orchards, filled with many kinds of fruit trees. The peaches they raise, Captain Walker says, are particularly fine. They have large flocks of sheep and goat.*, but very few cattle or beasts of burden. They are a harmless, inoffensive race—hospiiuble to strangers, and make very little resistance when attacked. The warlike Navajoes, who inhabit thh mountains to the northeast of them, are in the habit of sweeping down upon them every two or three years, and driving off their stack,— At such times they gather up all that is moveable from their farms, and fly for refuge to their mountain stronghold. Here heir enemies dare not follow them. When ajjjjanger approaches, they appear oijj|ie AND THE SAT OF REST. The eyea of the world are fixedgupon Turkey at ihe present moment with greater interest than upon any other portion of the globe. The Ottoman power has reached a crisis. Whether thai empire is to remain longer a "power on earth," or to be absorbed by Russia, or cul up like Poland and divided among the nation, ia a problem now in process of aolmion. All Ku- j rope has a deep ar.d thrilling in crest in the question, and the world ib watching with eagerness the denouement. At such a time a bird's eye glance at some of Ihe prominent points in the history of the Turks and Constantinople would doubtless be acceptable to the readers of our new magazine. lai|nchana Anthracite Journal a n»» rtnui won e**BA»ii'a u«a»»ath."

They derive liieir origin from a tribe of Huns, who dwelt in Great Tartary, and being forced by the other tribes to abandon their country, they dispersed in different directions. A portion of them, under the name ot Turks, founded an em. pi re in Asia Minor, about the year 1074, and iheir chief took the title of Sultan of Iconium.

The history of the Ottomans commences in 1299. Othrnan 1., who had been an Emir under ihe lust Sultan of Iconiuni, being joined by beveral other Emirs, seized Iconium, and established a new empire on ihe ruins of the one overthrown by the Moguls. On the death ol Oihman, Or chun assumed the title of Sullan. In 1359 his son Solyman crossed tlie Hellespont on rafts, and took Gallipoli, the key of Enrope, penetrated into Thrace, and laid the foundation of the Tmkish power in Europe. Orchan move,I ihe scat of his empire o the town cf Bursa, on the Asiatic side of the sea of Murmora. Amurath, the third Ottomau Sullan, removed the seal of his empire into Europe, to Adrian ople, north of Constantinople, and near the Black Sea. His son revolted in 1387, and was sentenced to have his eyes put out and be imprisoned. Amurath. walking over u field of battle after he had achieved a vie tory, was killed by a soldier who was lying among the wounded. He was succeeded in 1389 by Bajazet 1., surnarned lldcrwin, or Lightning, who on ascending the throne put lo death his own brother, who had a! tempted to oppose him. Bajazet was defeated in baiile by Stephen, Prince of Moldavia ; bi t a year or two after he defeated Sigismud, king of Hungary, at the battle of Nicopolis, in Bulgaria. In 1400 Tarneilane the Tartar invaded Asia Minor, and in 1402 took prisoner the Sultan Bajazel, who died the next year in captivity. After an interregnum of ten years, during which an irregular warfare was carried on, iV.'ahomet T. ascended the throne, in 1413 and in 1421 was succeeded by Amurath II., who had a stirring reign of thirty years, and was succeeded by Mahomet II., the first Emperor of Constantinople. In 14i3, iwo yeara after tie ascended the throne, Mahomet II. besieged and look Constantinople, end made it the seal of his empire. Thus it appears that Constantinople has been the "City of the Sultan" tour hundred years. Mahomet II. conquered ihe whole of ihe Morea. He was defeated by Stephen, Prince of Molda via, in 1475 ; but triumphed again tho following year, and laid waste the whole country. In 1480 he besieged Ihe island of Rhodes, with a hundred thousand men, but without success. He died the following year, and Bajazet II. reigned. He in. vaded Italy, and carried on a war in that country for five yeara. In 1512 Selim 1. ascended the throne, and immediately causcd his two brothers, Achmet and Ko. reud, to be strangled. In 1516 he made war upon Egypt. In the battle of Aleppo the Sultan of Egypt was killed. The next year Selim gained another victory near Cairo, and caused thirty thousand Mame. lukes to be barbarously slaughtered. Finally, qnder the bloody reign of Selim 1. Egypt became a province of the Ottoman empire. Solyman I.

He gained a celebrated battle at MohatE, where Louia 11., king of Hunga. ry, was slain. In 1529 he besieged Vienna, but waa forced to retire with the loss of eighty thousand men. He besieged Malta for four months, but was repulsed by one of the most heroic defences on reoord. In 1500 Selim II, reigned. He took the inland of Cyprus. In 1574 Amurath III. came to the throne, and immediately strangled his five brothers. He made war against Persia for eleven yeara. He also went against Hungary, but waa defeated, In 1505 Mahomet lU. came to the throne, and signalized his aceeasionby strangling his nineteen brothers.
