After the te l rrible massacre in Da mascus in 1860, thousands of the Greek and Greek Catholic families migrated to r:eirat, and among them , nas a man - named Khalil Ferah, who escaped the fire-and sword with his wife and his little daughter. Zahidy. remember well how we were star tled oho evening in 1862, by hearing a crier going through the streets, "child lost!. girl lost! " The next day he came around again, "child lost ! " There was great excitement about l it. The poor father and moth. :er went almost frantic. Little Zahidy, who was then about six years old, was 'coming home from school with .ther girls in the afternoon, and they Said a' man came along with a sack on his back, and told Zahidy that her ra r other hid sent him to buy her some plums and then take her home, and she went away with him. It is supposed that he decoyed her away to some by-road and then.put her in to that great sack; and carried her off to the Arabs or gypsies. The poor father left no means un- tried to find her. He wrote to Da mascus, Alexandria, and Aleppo, de scribing the child, and • begged , his friends everywhere to watch for her and send him word if they found her. When she was a baby, and nursing at her mothes's breast, her mother Upset a little cup of scalding coffee upon the child's breast, which burned 'it to a blister, , leaving a scar which could not be removed. This sign the father described, and his friends aided him in trying to find the little girl. They went to the encampments of the gypsies and looked at all the children, but in vain. The father journeyed by lima and sea. Hearing of-a little girl in Aleppo who could give no account of herself, ho went. there, but it was not his child. Then he went to Damascus and Alexan dria, and at length bearing that # French Countess in Marseilles had a `little Syrian orphan girl whose pa rents were not ,known, ho Eellt 1 to Marseilles and examined the girl, but she was.not his child. Months and years passed on, but the father never ceased to speak and think of that little lost girl. The. mother too was almcist distracted: • At length light came. Nine years I had passed away, and the Bind peo ple had almost !forgotten the story of the lost Damascene girl. Your uncle S. and sour aunt A. were sitting in 1 their house one day, in Tripoli, when I Tannocs, the boy„ brought word that a man and woman from Birnt wished to sea them. , hey came in and in troduced the selves. They , wore Khalil, the fa th er of the little lost .1 1 girl, and his. si ter, who had heard that Zahidy wa in Tripoli, and had come to search for her. The mother was not able to leave home. It seems tha a native physician in Tripoli, named heik Ainb el Hashim, was an old frie d of the father and c i had known th family and all the circumstances i the little girl's dis appearance, an for years ho had been I.:;oking for her. At length he was called one day to attend a sick servant girl in the family of a. MoslemnamediSYed Abdullah. The poor girl was ;11 from having! been beaten in a cru 1 manner by the 24101 em. lem. Her faci ] and arms were tat )(,i)oed-irt the Be awin style; and she= old him that she was a Bedawin 'il, and had be n; living here for soy- D ral years, and er name was Kho a.. While examining 'the bruises n i her body, h 4 observed a peculiar pear on her breast: He was startled. (He looked agai . , It "was precisely the sear that hi friend had so often, 'described to h ni. From her age, iletr feature.% he 'complexion and all, f he felt sure that , she was the lost child. He said nothing, bnt went, home and wrote all about it to the father in Bird. He hastened to Tripoli, bringing his sister, as be be tug a man, could not be admitted . to a Moslem hared. Then the question arose, how should the sister see i the child ? They came and talked with your uncle, and 'went to Yanni and 1 ho other vice-consuls, and at length hey found out' that-the women of ,hat Moslem fluidly were skillful in inarking silk and, gold embroidery which they sold / So his sister de termined to go and order some em broidered work . and see the girl., She talked with{ the Moslem women, and with their Bedawy servant girl, nd made errands ,for the women to bring her specimens of their work, improving the 'opportunity to talk With the seriant. She saw the.sear, itrid satisfied herself from the striking resemblance of the girl to her Moth er, that she was the long-lost Zahidy. I The father nova took measures to imam his daughter. The American, Prussia' n, English and 'French vice , Consuls sent a I united deinand to the Turkish Pasha, that the girl be brought to court to meet her father, and that the 'thee he tried in the itejlis, or City pinmcil. The Mos terns were now greatly excited. They Icn Mir that therelwere not less titan 4widtwenty girls in; their , families who been stolen [in -this way, and : if e could be'reclaimed perhaps the rest might, so they resolved to resist. Theylrought Bedawin Arabs to be resent,at the trial, and hired them to swear fidaely. l ' When the girl Was brought in, the father wasquite over; come.

The Be:dawi men and Ndomen were now brough in. One swore ' that he was the ther of the! girl, and a woman swo that-she 'weeher direr. Then a veral swore' that th y were her n cles, but it was prOved that they re in no ,way re lated to the one w o said ho t wee her . father. Other wit eases were called, ' but they contradict ed one another. They then asked the girl; 'Po or thing ; she had be n so long ne lect edlend abused, the she hadlorptten hei;cdher and th Moslem ;women ha threthened to • her if She said i eh lwas his daught r, E 0 she declared she;was born among the Bed win, and was a Moslem in religion.; 4o T tey had been given to ertain of tile Me jliS,jand they finsll decided that the gir:should go to t o Moslem house of erwish Effendi to await the final .I de I ision. The pOor-father now went, to the Consuls. They made out, ntate merit of the case and sent it , the' Consul General in Beitut,' who sent Mat dispatch to the Waly f all a Syria, who lived in Damascus, de mending that as the case coul d not be fairly tried in Tripoli, the girl be broight to Beirut to be examined by a Special Commission. The, Waly , telegraphed at onceto Tripoli to have the i r , girl sent .on by the first steatner to Beirut. The Moslem wo men now told the girl, that oilders hadl come to have' her killed, 1 and that! she was tokbe taken on a steam er ail if ogo to,Beirut, but that real; ly they were going to. thro a w - hbr into the Sea, and that if she reached Bei-` rut alive they would cut .her rip and burn her ! So the Poor child went on the steamer in perfect terrOr,land she reached Beirut, in a state of ei haunion. When she was reste, a CoMmission , was formed coin ting of the Moslm Kadi of Beirut who fi was I acting Governor, the political' Agent, Delenda Effendi, the leek Catholic Bishop Agabins , the Ma on ite Priest Yusef, and the agento the Gre k Bishop, together with all the i e) me hers of the Executive C o uncil. /1 r father, mother and aunt ' ere now rought. in and sat near her. She refu dto recognize then; and was in c _patent fear of being inj ed. The K.iidi then turned _to her and said- "Do not fear, my child; ' you are qrSong friends. Do not be ,afraid of - ptaple who have threatened you. No one shall harm yon." The Mos lem Each, the Greek Catholic In.este and others, haviug thus kindly- po T ken to her, the father and mother 3 'Stated the history of -how the; I!ttle girl was lost nine years age, and hat she bad a scar. on her breast ! The scar was elamined, and all began to feel that she was really their own daughter. The girl began- tb Teel more calm, and the Each , told her that her own triothei wanted tb ask her h few questions. Her mother now went, up tb her and said: ".My child, 'don't you re member me?" She said. "NO, do not." " Don't you- reitember, hat f your name was once Zahidy, ail I used to call you, and you. lived i a - house with a little yard and flowers before tho door, and that yout itent with the little girls to school, and came home at night; and that One • day a man. came and offered .on scale sugar plums and led yonaway and carried you off to the Ai 'bs ? Don't you know me, my own :dot A ter ? The poor girl trembled; her, lips quivered, and she said, "Ye 'l . - did have another name. I icicis Z a- hidy. I did go with little girla, ih, ya imme!

This girl is the dang ter of Habig Ferah. Sir, take your, child, and Allah be with you! 1 The father wiped , away the ;t ars and said: "Your Excellency , yen see this poor girl all tattooed and is. figured. Yon see how ignorant nd feeble she is. If she were Mot my child,..there is nothing about, her to make me wish to take her. But he is my own darling child, and 'th allher faults and infirmities II I ve her." The whole Council then a et and congratulated the father d mother, and a great crowd eccoin a nied them home.

I can hardly think over this 'at ry oven now without tears, for I th nk how glad I should have been to et back agin a child of mine if it ad been lost., And I have anot er thought too about that little lost irl. If that father loved his. daughfii so as to search arid seek for her; nd expend !Money, and travel by `-I, nd and se.i for years, in trying to ! nd her, and, When at, length he fond her, so forlorn and wretched, d degraded, vet he loved her still e _cause she was his daughter, do ou not think that Jesus loves as ' even more ? We were lost and wretched and forlorn.

Don't you think that the Ali tle i li lost Damascene'girl , was than 111 1 when she reached her home, and as loved - and kindly:treated by fat er and Mother and relatives and friOnds?
