MAIDEN At ilte commencement of the massacre I upon the island of Scio, Ellen, a beautiful frirl of Callemasia—in Scio—fled with her father’s family to the mountains, where they lay concealed beneath a rock surrounded wjth shrubbery. They supported themselves with crass and snails, which they' collected by niullt.’ .After two weeks, their confine ment a'nd spare diet began to prey upon their health.. They at length ventured to go a broad and procure some more substantial nourishment. They had not proceeded far before they were surprised, by a parly of Turks in ambush. The father and mother of Ellen were immediately killed_by Jicr side. She and her sister were spared for their beauty; but, as the hostile band was too nunierous.-ttlUy could not agree to whose .lot the cuptivoSfSuould fall. Her sister was cut in picccsi-tSttcElleii herself was retained alive by the Jlouloukbas or chieftain, who o-avc to each of. liis men two dollars to pre vent further,disturbance. Ellen was led by the Houloukbatf'io a konak in the city of Scio, where sfieAvas obliged to perform the duties of a slave. Her rnasttr was so brutal 'that she meditated a scheme to regain her freedom. One night she left her residence; and fled to ‘the English consulate, the'doors of which were ,closed. Not succeeding in "mining-admittance,’she climbed into one of the orange trees in the garden and remained there till morning,.when the Bouloukbas, her master, sumpjjjned his gang and started inpursuitofh^^He-oamctothcEnglish consul and all®Kpermission to search his garden for' a fugitiver' The rcqU?st \vas granted.

He proceeded to the konak of the Boulqukbas, and offered i two thousand piastres'for the Greek captive; but them aster declined part ing with her for any sum whatever, and de clared that she should always live with him.

At the same time it was agreed between them, that they should leave the island that very night. Earnest promised ta send her a man’s dress, that she might assume it, to avoid the suspicion of the watch. The Turk, who did not understand the import of (lie conversation, 'Was still obstinate in’ his vein - sal to part with,, her, and Earnest who un derstood sufficiently well the Turkish lan guage, promised to rome again and make' some proposal, which, he hoped, would not be resisted by her unfeeling owner." They [separated, and Earnest rejoiced in the hope of-possessing one'of the-fairest-of-the fair.— He bribed the servant of the Bouloukbas, and by.him forwarded to Ellen the disguise which bad been proposed. At midnight he appeared under her Window, and clasping her in his arms, placed her upon the ground.
