Still the sultan remained silent. until st last he turned to his prime minister. and spoke in is low voicc. sud sf- towards to other othcers of state. seated near to his cushions. Thom turning to the ambassador. be said:

‘ The mission you so Well retina-int. is honorable nnd not unacceptable to us. Sir Ambassador; but upon I point so peculiar and momentous. time is required for deliberation. Buy with us here in our capitsl. and ac~ cept our royal protection and buspitulity, until we shall furthot entertain your business. snd prepsre our. selves to answ'er your mission.‘ '

‘ Your serene majesty is most grscmus.’ replied the smhsssndur.

Tho presence broke up. nml one of the officers of stain walked away with the ambassador. upon whom all eyes had been so earnestly bent. He was a man of fine. manly proportions. full in develbputent. sud with s "MIN! grace slid dignity of bearing beyond the cast of most men. and a heavy hlsck moustache shading she eit- pressive lines of his mouth. pus s striking classic sp- pcsrancu to the whole countenance. ills hair was black and curly. hanging so boulitifuiiy about his neck lllti face as to form in port s slivilul‘ or hell mask. His piercing. large black eyes seemed to comprehend ovary- thing with which they csmc in contact. and his gracious expression sud lsiiyuage won all hearts to rsgsrd him with friendship stii interest.

As the minister Walked with the ambassador among tho beautiful paths of the seraglio gnnlen. they met the dwarf. who. a tertollcwiugthcir footsteps for sometime. name up as they panned. and looked up with his kindling eye into the face of the atrsnger. and its they seated themselves for it few moments. the poor deformed crea~ lure drew near once more. and lyin down upon the grass. lsitl its head upon the smhsssa or‘a knee; an sf- lectionnie token often practised by an inferior to one above him in Turkey.

‘A srrsoga cresturo.‘ asid the prime minister. in an- swer to a look of enquiry from the smblsssdur. as he glanced from the ‘minister to the dwarf. ' He has been sttschcd to the palace these nuiny years. sod is ever fond of thy nation.‘

‘ Indeed 1‘

° Yes, he was kindly cared for by s Greek psge. who once served his serene hlgbncss. and though that boy foolishly run awsy from prefermcnt and bouts. yet the dwarf‘ bits shown grout regsrd for all of thy nstion aver IIHCQ.

' Me has I grsteful heart; I one rest! it. in his ays.‘ said the ambassador.

' Yes. the page once asved his life by risking his own at s fire in the palsce. and that is the principal cause of his liking for our nation.‘

‘ He ts dum . I should judge?

' Yea; nature. which cast blur forth so marred in body. also bereft him of speach.‘

Thus saying. they pmsd on to see the lions of the gsrtlens.

The sultan had slept upon the proposition of the Greek king; feuds and wars hsd evur existed between the two countries. He was himself heartily iirsd of

lbioodsbed. and thought this a good opportth to asks Is settled pans. sod plses Essh. k

belevs child. in

s position eminently above that which she could possibly hold smong her own people. where her sex filled a far dim-rant s here from that occupied by them at Athens. Besides. hsniab had for s long period of time been sad and melancholy. ever since the loss of Mick. sud indeed was so miserable that the sultan had more than once feared for her rcsson. He thought that s change of acetic might also do her good. as well as further his more worldly designs in sampling the propossi; and thus reasoning. lie at length made is his .illui to answer favorably the proposition of the am ssssdor.

It was ’ust subsequent to the hour in the harem. at the time of Lsmali‘a return from the garden and conversa- tion with her mother. that the sultan sent for his child. ‘ Esiiiub. my fair pearl, have you heard. through your mother. of this proposition for thy hand P' asked her lather. smoothing her soft hair afl‘cctioastely as he spoke.

' Yes. father.’

‘And whst dost thou think of it. my fairest pent-ll” asked the sultan.

‘ I hsvs no will. father} replied Esmsh. rcsignedlv.

' Wouldst be the bride 01's king. a southern monarch. who not only marries thee. l-Isuish. but shares also the honor and dignity of his throne with thee. my child 1"

' Thy will. father, is mine.‘ said the gentle girl. still unmoved.

' But. Esmsb. 1 would hsve thee pleased. nsv. I would have thce rejoice st so hit ipy sn slhsuce.‘ continued the sultan. ‘Art thou plesscl . my child, st. so becoming so alliance for thy birth and station i"

‘ No. fsther.‘

‘ No l'

' I cannot speak fslsely.‘ she replied, with her eyes boot. upon the floor.

' Ilut wherefore art thou not pleased. my child 9‘ asked the sultan.

"l‘he prophet alone may know. lsther.‘ replied Esmah. Tbla was a peculisr expression. and one tluit preclud- ed all further inquiry. Even to this day it is Ilt‘lfl sacred in the But: no uupurtunity {allows such it reply. be it made to whom it any. before judgment or elsewhere— tbe prophet once named. and the .‘ipa become sealed! no one tint-ea to break the charm!

This custom and observance. though a compsrstivcly unimportant one. is yet. most. striking in its “amplifica- iion of the Turkish clisracter. The simple impression. “the prophet shine may know.“ acts upon all interroga- tors llke n charm; the head is bowed in respect. and the party queried before is no longer importunsd. So with eni-lt national superstitious and mysterious rite; a Turk holds them dearer than his life. itnthould as soon dis. regsrd the one as the other. Iisuiab could not tell her lather the secret that assessed her. for he had never seriously untefllincd t e idea that his child loved the page. and such s revelation to him. even now. might be Attended with little less tlutu filial consequences, and thus she said. ” The prophet alone may know."

The truth wss. Esmsb‘s besrt was as much widowed as though she had been the wife of .Alick at the time of his fi-srl'ul loss. and nsVer could she love another as she would have loved him. my. ss she did love him. The world to her wore a tfifl'crent sspect. the future had no sllureuients. no attrsctiona; she was indifferent to fine itself. since Alick was no more. If her father desired the sllisnce referred to. she would not. object. further. She hail said sll that a female in her country might. say With propriety. and now she felt that she was prepared for the sacrifice if it were necessary.

in this frame of mind. I‘Jsuisli's heart bled for one confldsnt. one with whom she might share the grief that oppressed her. She bull once s icloved sister, but she wits dead nova and buried beneath the funeral cypress. In her longlngs. Emunh would repair to her sister‘s grave. and strive to hold communion with her spirit there. Beneath those durk groves of cypressca. among those turbsned stones of white marble. she often sat alone. And with the solitsry men absorbed in pruyer. or roupa of women sitting over the graves of 9t‘pll‘f' ed 'ricnds. Esmnb felt it secret sympathy that was holy in its prompting. it is s beautiful custom of the East that drswa the people so often to the gruveyards; here they seem to commune with those who sleep bo-ncath. or supply with water the soft beds of roses plsntcd show their graves. Over their heads are inyriads of‘ turtle doves fluttering smong the overhang- ing branches of the ’ trcca. dividing the away of the

loomy but consecrated place with bats and owls. fiyrun found stranger interest in a Turkish graveyard. and wrote them down as the “ loveliest spots on with." ‘Twss hers E-msb‘s sail lit-srt led her to resort—bare. that she sought for the sympathy her soul coveted.

The marriage was publicly proclaimed. and EI- mnh wss informed on the subsequent day to that just referred to, that within the present moon she must be prepared to depart with an escort of honor to meet her future husband. Arnsiius. King of Greece; and with the entire submission that is char- nctcrisiic of the sex of the East, slio acquiesced with- out s single murmur.
