We can smile at but scarcely censure his rap- etry ster turous praises of the gentle and lovely Tur lerk princess, .who, fresh and fair as the sweet boTur ,ward May's blossoms," that dewy morn, while der 7 the Spring blossoms were eopening in but ckthe fresh beauty, and the soft .winds were doe sighing through the green bowers and in t. hedges that "beshaded all tLe alleys div that there were" in whose fragrant coverts Pdi ER. were hidden "thelittle, swete nyghtingale Pui that sang so loud and clere the ympni s ui uger (hymns) consecrat of luvis use;" walked oni over the vrelvet turf of Vindsor lawn and through the pleached alleys, into the grated prison room of Windsor Tower pward and into the warm and ausoeptible heart la 'lock. of the royal captive. Happy pair to have tid every had so kind a termination to their prison wooing; so beautiful and tender an epi it. sode in their eventful and tragic lives -- were enough to compensate for all after AALER disasters. Without this happy finale is ted in the story of Rechedi Hanoum, of which in the Miss Pardoe makes brief mention in her 'cel- fistory of the Thrks." u] Upon the declaration of war against Russia, made by the Turks in 1786, the S young Russian minister to the Turkish h NES, Court, as gallant and as handsome as his Scottish prototype,James Stuart, o as ui, alezed and incarcerated in the "Seven w Cen. Towers" a Turkish stronughold. He was however treated with much consideration dreess and delicacy; overy priviloege oompitible b Co, with his situation was allowed him, nor 'reat, s did he feel the rigors of strict confine ment. In the endeavor to lighten his --- weary months of captivity and to cheat time by filling his days with occupation he was even allowed to construct and aN', adorn within the Tower itself, a hand l styles some apartrieut, and upod the walls of the Fortress a Kiosk or pleasure house possess from . hence at evening he could view Sthe gayly deorated Caiques glideiug orna- by beneath his prison walls with their ity offreight of joyous, happy and free crea- i gantde- tnrea, or at morning behold the advent Svariety of the day clothed in purple and fina g' old, but which brought to him no happy ly hopes of release. One can easily imagine that even his gorgeous prison failed to INJU satisfy the homesick prisoner that even the lovllness of that balmy clime brought TH to his satiated sight,'visions of his own loved country, that he would have given years of life in that Asian lanfof delights for one glimpse of the snowy hills and rushing waters of his beloved Russia. Anoti Fate had decreed that his dreary lot last few was to be yet further ameliorated.

But it was not to last thus for lovel ever; one morning a resplendently clad sweet Turkish official waited on the prisoner while bearing him papers of exchange, that or g hie der which once he had so ardently desired, sg in but which now he read and. re-read as pf does the convict his death warrant, for a sand in it he beheld the decree that was to alleys divide himself and his innocent love. iuale Poor Rechedi Hanonm, her bright glance hungale quickened by affection was swift to read W ked upon her lover's face tle omen of some w and misfortune, and with gentle and artless tto the words of fondness she endeavored to Tower chase away the effect the cause of which, le heart as yet, she was in blissful ignorance; at 8 last he mustered courage to tell her the C to have tidings the morning had brought him; to r prin tell her the coming day would find them ic lives widely severed; also! too soon and fa all after tally the sensitive heart of the unhappy A fl girl interpreted the sad import of the I f i faltering and incoherent words; too well Swhich she realized that t8heilr parting must in in deed be forever.
