ILUSTEATION'OY LITE IN CONSTANTINOPLE IN 1840, There lived in Constantinople a poor old tailor, who was an excellent hlussulmau, scrupulously performing his five ablutions a day, a good observer of the Ram *ban; and who regularly kept himself, from morning till night, in a stall which he dignified by the name of shop, and who for more than twenty years had inces. sandy occupied himself in mending old clothes. His prophet had not even once sent fortune to visit him; nor had en opportunity ever been granted him of preying his talent in nrakinga new suit of clothes. With his business, he joined an almost titular one of bell ringer to a mosque, situated near his abode. It is well known, that the residences of Turkish shopkeepers are always seperated from their shop, which forms part of a bazaar. One day, while Hussein the tailor was seated in his shop, counting his wooden beads and, waiting for customers, be remarked a well dressed marl, who was walking slowly along the bezmar, pass, ing and repassing before his shop, and appeared, to him as if waiting the moment he could enter without being ebserved. Hussein was not wrong io his conjectures. notwithstanding the individual appear, ed to him a personage of too high rank to need his humble services. Great was then his surprise, when, on entering, the stranger demanded if be thought him. self capableof making a complete suit of clothes to the pattern of a model which he would give sum. At this flattering preposition, the tailor felt himselfertanspor. ted to the third heaven, and as he bad a vast opinion of his own abilities, he immediately assured the strange*. that he would not regret having addressed himself to him, and he would perform what be demanded as well as the most able tailor of Stamboul. 'lt is well,' answered the stranger, 'but you must come yourself to get the model I have spoken of.' • Emmediately, if you wish h: 'No, be here when the, cluck strikes the midnight hour, and I will then come to conduct you where it is necessary to go.' Your wish shall be obeyed.' *That is not all; you must eon. sent to have your eyes bandaged.' At this second proposition pour Hussein trembled v.ith fear, but the unkuown threw on' the counter three pieces of gold, ,and continued.--'Twenty other pieces of gold shall be your recompense when the work is done, and by Ma. hornet! you shall have nothing to fear. The sight of the gold, and the prospect of a cnnsid. ereble sum in addition, produced on the good tailor the same effect it always does on a Turk, and, need we add, as it does hut too often alga on a Christian. 'AI. lab Kerins!' said Hussein between his teeth, and promised to be exact in waiting fur the stranger st the specified time. After this interview the tailor wont to see his wife, to whom he recounted his ad, centime, without concealing from her the conditions which fortune had imposed upon him. His wife, who felt much interested at his recital, used all her pursue. shins in encouraging him in the nocturnal enterprise. At the promised midnight hour the stranger was it ihe shop of the tailor, where the latter was anxiously awaiting him. The former duel placed a bandage over Hossein s eyes, and giving him his arm to guide him, conducted the tailor along the streets and for two te, dims hours Hussein was unable to form the slightest idea a, to where he was leading him. At length his guide halted, and directed him to kneel, when, removing the bandage, and ordering biro to wait a little while, left him by one of four doors which the room he had entered contained. The me. meet Hussein recovered his sight, be found himself ie a splendid saloon. Never could he have imagined a magnificence equal to that which now surrounded him. Immense mirrors encased with golden frames, silks of the most costly nature, displayed , tbeneseNeir to his eyes, while the whole saloon was illuminated by viers. did girandoles and lustre.. Hussein, kneeling in the midst of this splendor, on a carpet of the richest design, had not yet recovered Lis astouishment, when he beheld the door open by which hia guide bad disappeared, and a man of ma. jostle appearance. in the bloorp of youth, entered the room, as equally rematkable for his beauty as for the t ichness of his dress. This &pleaded petsonage bore packet enveloped in a cashmere of the most beauil ul which partly unfolding, he displayed to the trembling tailor the pattern which the cashmere contained, together with the rich stuffs necessary to make a similar one, saying, that be give him five days to achieve his work. Unfolding the packet, and , throwing it on the ground a few paces from where Hussin remained still kneeling, immovable as a statue. the *pleaded looking personage left the saloon. aud immediately afterwards the guide re-appeared, wbo immedtately replaced the bandage over the eyes of the tailor. forcing under hia arm the packet which the latter had not dared to touch, so great was his awe and astonishment. The guide re-conducted the tailor out of the saloon. When they had entered the bazaar, the guide withdrew the bandage from Hussein's eyes. and recommended him to apply himself diligently to the work which had been confided to him, After ad ding that he would COM 6 hirnaelf to receive it, and beg, ging him not to mention his good fortune to any one, he left the tailor to his own reflections. It was autumn—the fourth hour of day had scarcely struck, so that three hours would yet elapse before the rising ache sun. Hussein thought it was too early to instal himself in his shop; he therefore directed his way towards his humble abode where he found his wife anxiously waiting fur his return. He recounted to her the extraordinary things he had seen, but scarcely giv ing hint time to conclude his relation. she seized the packet that she might gratify her curiosity in beholding the beautiful stuffs it contained. Seating herself, she first examined the beautiful cashmere. With an ex clamation of delight she then unloosed its knots, where a cry of terror broke from her while she threw the packet to the ground. Hussein, OA the cry, rubbed to. wards his wife, end by tlje fading light of asolitary can, die beheld a human head rolling on the floor. His ter• :or equalled, if not surpassed, that of his wife. When the terror-stlicken pair had pevay regained their self possession, they lost themselves in conjec. tutus upon such an extraordinary event. For a long time did they hold.counsel to find out some expedient to prevent their ruin. "By Ali! we are saved," at length exclaimed the wife. "Only yesterday, that upstart of a baker, our neighbor, refusod to give me credit, but he shall now pay for it. Give me the tin dish we bake meat in,and, let me arrange the matter." The tailor brought the dish to her, wherein she pla, ced the head, and covering it over, went out. Hussein, alarmed at the events of the morning, a, waited his wife's return with anxiety. A quarter of an hour had scarcely elapsed when she re-appeared. "All goes well," she exclaimed on entering—"make yourse lf perfectly easy. You may now go to the muse que -to ring the bells as usual, so that nobody might suspect anything." We will now see what has become of the bead, The wife of the tailor, well acquainted with the habits Of the baker, was aware that every morning while hia oven was heating, to tako a stroll out with his dog, wbilehis son did not rise until his father had left the house, so that the shop remained without any one in it for a short time. She therefore seized the opportunity to place her baking dish among others filled with goat. which the neighbors had left for baking, who the baker returned from his walk, he found his soh wait, ing for him on the steps of the door, without suspect, ing any thing. Suddenly the dog rushed with extra, ordinary energy against the tailor's dish: the baker stirs prised lifted up its cover.
