Or again on the visit of a Pasha, when the present offered him in stuffs and cloth costs as much as 150 sequins. Presents too are made to the commanders of caravels, or Turkish men of war, which anchor in the roadstead. The captains and officers of men of war are entitled to board at the table of their consul. The French consul is allowed 10 piastres or 2\ sequins a day for each such vessel. The English consul keeps an account of his expenses and forwards it to the Levant Company, by whom he is... repaid, with some slight addition. The Venetian consul bears his own charges. Xxii] Constcls 129 One of the chief duties of a consul in Turkey is to enhance as much as possible the dignity of the sovereign whom he represents, and to protect to the best of his power not only his subjects, but others commended to his care. A consul must not protect the subject of any Prince who is represented in the same city by a consul of his own, but he may give refuge to anyone who escapes from the jurisdiction of his own consulate, the consular house being inviolable, even by the Turks.
