But this latter did not give him much hope. - Itwather made the way more dark, for he found that the present possessor of Myrrha was not- ed for his sternness of manner and utter disregard of eVarything oppos- ing him. Yet he resolved to go toâ€" Ward ,the suburb of Pera and see what fate had in store for him. He, might at least, he thought, find some one who could tell him of herâ€"some servant who had seen her, and knew her situation. He knew he had no powerâ€"no authorityâ€"no friends. He did not dare to apply to one of his own countrymen, for from his native land he was but a fugitive, and the sword of death hung pending from the flag that might have been his afety. He was all alone can; fate that opposed tuous in conceptionâ€"where hall find all he can , and where the vol- uptuary shall realize all he can hope for in pleasure’s powerâ€"and the fan- ciful picture wi mensely short of was manifest in the reality'of which the harem of the en tapestry and the most costly eaStern fabrics ; the lounges and ot- f the softest and most pliable materials, and literally groan- ing with their weight of wealth ; the fl00r was lost beneath a carpet that covered up the feet in its luxurious : in the centre of the apart- , a silvery fountain of richly perfumed waters. while the lat- ices upon the high windows were cur- tained with roses that breathed forth such odors as might tempt the gods from the pure atmosphere of their celestial abodes. Selim one of the most wealthy Moslem capital, and in this abode he made it all palpable. In this apartment was CirCassian captive, Myrrha. reclining on one of the low lounges. with her pale brow bent upon hand. She Was as beautiful as ever, though the bloom of health had giv- en place to a cast of sadness. and the had passed away .leaving a crushed _- the grief marks of soul upon those sweet features. Sor- row could not mar such beauty as hers, nor could grief blot out the an- gel that virtue had inspired within her. Upon a rich cushion at Mryyha's feet sat a young female, beautiful in the extreme, but with a beauty tot- ally diflerent from her companion ; and yet she was a Circassian. and her name was Fatima. Her hair was black as the plumage of the ra- ven. and her large black eyes were like the depths of starlit night. She was gaYing up into Myrrha’s face. and the kindest of sympathy was palâ€" pable upon her features. “Be Calmâ€"be calm," she said. in a soft entreaty, the same time raising one of her jewelled hands and resting it upon Myrrhazs arm. Why should you bewail your fate more ? It will do you no good. and it may do you much harm- Selim is not a man to be trifled with. Myrrha. I know hrs nature well.” Fatima spoke in a tone so strange and full of import, and her face bore such a stamp of meaning upon it. that Myrrha was startled. “What mean you," she asked. ing her brow from her hand gazing inquisitively upon her rais- and com- ed." was Fatima’s reply. him well.

"I might risk my own life and yet I might save yours." responded Fa- tima, Casting her eyes upon the car- pet as' though she Was meditating. “But you must tell me. You mean somethingâ€"something of importance. I should surely know my master's character.’ ' “So you ought to ed Fatima, looking up again. Can you be secret?" “As the grave!” said Myrrha. “I said that you had better obey him," returned Fatima; “for he will not long brook disobedience. I have seen those. who disobeyed him, and I know how terrible is his judgment. Do you see those rippling waves that now dance in the sunlight ?” "Yes,” whisper Myrrha, gazing out upon the waters of the Bosphorus. “Well, they are dancing over the graves of those who have been false to Selim." ~ , Myrrha trembled and clasped her hand upon her bosom. “And is there no law in Constanâ€" tinople ’to prevent this?” “Ah, yes there is a written law, made by the present sultan: but who shall apply it to Selim? The law: does not know what he does. If Ab- dul Medjid knew of it he might pun- ish our master; but the dark, deep, waters of the Bosphorus do not tell his secrets. Beware !" Myrrha had heard it all, and she knew well its meaning. ‘ At first she was moved by a terrible fear, but gradually she overcame it, and, uttered from risk know it.

Fatima indeed understood this, for she bowed her head, and the tearâ€" drops of sympathy stood out on her but before she Myrrha continued "It may be that when we meet again it shall be in heaven, but be it whatever it may. my heart is all his own. When I saw him last he was weak and faint, and his best blood had been spilled in my defence. But he Was not dead then. I hope he lives." "Ah." uttered Fatima. with shake of the head. "you must not hope too much. You may as well acknowledge the truth at first. Your early love is dead to you. for from this place you will find no escape." “None?” said Myrrha. "Do none ever escape from their prisons?" -“I never know It, though I know not that I ever knew one who wish- ed it ; but I know there is no escape from here. Selim’s harem is guard- ed by most jealous eyes. Between here and liberty there are scores of scimitars that are never sheathed. You would escape his power only to a sad fall into the arms of death. I love you, Myrrha. and I would saw you. Were it another. or were you from any other country than Cil‘CllSSla. I would let you die ere you should share Selim's love.” “You need not fear," Myrrhu, with a grateful look. I shall take none of his love you." “But you cannot take it. for he al- ready loves you. Hark! here he comes. I know his step." “Then God save me." “No, save yourself. Try to please him. Take my advice, now, for I know him well." “He may kill me if he pleases." “Beware! or you may find how quickly your prayer can be answered. For one that he loved not he might feel only anger ; but for one that he loves as he loves you, he has but one other feeling and that is almostâ€"sh! he comes. Beware! Let us live happily together. Love him, and I will be all I can to you." As. the footsteps sounded'upon the corndor, Fatima glided away into returned 0 sfor from an adjoining apartment. and Myrrha was left alone to meet her master ; and in a moment more the heavy silken arras were drawn aside. and Selim entered. \ (Continued Next Week .-) ______+.____â€"â€"â€" An Editor’s Diary The diary of a western editor con- tains the following entries. which may be taken as a sample of what the average newspapermnn's life is made up of, both east and west.

Moreover. every morning. regularly, the handsome desk in the centre of the COUnCll chamber, which the city clerk occupies, would be found covered with scraps of mortar and other debris. It was at first thought that some practical youth Was trying to have a little fun at the expense of the city fathers; a watch was set, but the ghostly sounds continued and the mortar was found every day as usual on the table. One day last week, Mr. Drouin.1he janitor, had a systematic search made " of the loft over the council chamber. The mystery was at once sowed. A disconsolatc pigeon Was found under the boards of the loft and directly over the chamber. The ornament over the chamber had been arranged so that air could come through it. In this cosy retreat the pigeon could see both the city fathers ‘ and listen to their flights of oratory. It is thought that the pigeon must, have flown into the loft through one of the towers. When found it was was very weak through hunger. Mr. Drouin gave it a good square meal and then set it free. It will doubt~ less haVe wonderful things to tell to its comrades of what Montreal aldere men can do in the way of speech- making. ______+_____â€"â€"- CAMERON School report for the senior departa ment.
