Stayl what a cloud of perfume and sweet scents burthena the sirl Here are gathered all the sweets of the fer east and waist. from the long fla- con of cologne to the tiny. gilded bottles of utter- gul, the aroma of biirut spices. delicate mixtures of rose and musk, with burning pcsiles of rarest flavor and most costly ingredients. calling to mind the sweets of “Araby the blast." Bartering for some trifling article of perfume at the bazanr, stood a young Greek. in the national dress of his people. with a short Spanish cloak of blue broadcloth thrown slightly about his shoulders, as if to protect the wearer from the night dew, which already began to full. He seemed to be less engaged. after all, with the scent-merchant than in anxiously looking about him in the expectation of meeting some other person. Anon. a female. clothed in the ample dress of white which causes all the sex to look alike in the streets of Constantino- ple, and her features so hidden as to puzzle all con- purchasing a small flask of bite of rose. exchanged a hurried and secret greeting with the Greek. and both turned together from the perfume bazaar.
