They both are appointed by the Sultan, with the nominal concurrence of the 'Ulema, ' or general body of lawyers and theologians, the Sheikh-ul-Islam presiding. The ' Ulema ' are the inter- preters of the Koran, who take the title of ' Mufti. ' The forms of constitution are after the model of the West European States. These were drawn up at various periods by successive Ottoman Governments, the first of these embodied in the ' Hatt-i-Humayoun ' of Sultan Abd-ul- Medjid, which was proclaimed Febr...uary i8th, 1856, and the most recent in a decree of Sultan Abd-ul-Hamid II. , of November, 1876. But the carrying out of these projects of reform, in the present condition of the Ottoman Empire, is entirely impossible. The Grand Vizier, as head of the Government and representative of the Sovereign, is assisted by the Medjliss- i-Khass, ' or Privy Council, which corresponds to the British Cabinet. The Cabinet consists of thirteen members, namely : The Grand Vizier, the Sheikh-ul-Islam, the Minister of the Interior, the Minister of War, the Minister of Evcaf (Worship), the Minister of Public Instruction, the Minister of Public Works, President of Council of State, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Finance, Minister of Marine, Minister of Justice, and Minister of Civil List.
