LOVE, TREACHERY, AND DIS
PAIR.

The following romantic story is rela-
ted as fact in letter from Thcssalo
nice, dated Nov. l0:-"Mustapha Pa
cha, rcputed to be the ablcst Of all the
officers Of Turkey, has just delivered
Macedonia from formidable band Of
brigands who have infested the country
for upwards of four years. The means
he took are too siugularnot to BIT men
toned. Having learnt that a young Al
bauian gi77a., aae et.:::ng the name of The
odosja Maria Samik, residing at Mel
mix, town on the frontier Of Greece,
had sccretcommunications with the rob-
bers, Mustapha had her watched and
questioned but could not obtain any dis
closures. He then engaged one of his
licutcnants, named isamel, young man
of remarkable personal beauty. to go
and cndcavor to gain her affections.
This officer succeeded TO such degree
that she became warmly attached to
him, and informed him that her real
name vas Eudoxia Theresa Gherundaxi
and that she was the niece Of the chief
ofthe brigands, Michael Grcgoria Cher
undaxi, whose troop amounted to be-
tween l,400. | $50 mcn. She painted
in glowing terms the charms OF their
Grant and adventurous life. and urged
lsmael TO Join them. He pretended to
| yield to her instances and then learnt
! further from her that her uncle would
hold a general muster of his band on
Oct. 2Sth, in the forest of Pheloidos.
All this lsmacl communicated to Mus
tapha, but. in order to avert suspicion.
went with his fair one to the rendcs-
vous. The willy Mustapha collected his
troops, surrounded the assembled free
hooters, and as they refused to surren-
der, attacted them with all his forces.
The greatest numbev Of the brigands
fell on the spot, preferring death on the
field to capture and an ignominious ex-
ecution. A few escaped for the NOM
cnt, but they were afterwards taken.
and arc now waiting their sentence in
the citadel of ThessaIonia. Among the
dead were found the chief, GherundaxI,
whose head was cloven by a stroke
from sabre. and the young lieutenant,
lsmael, whose breast had been penetra-
ted by musket ball. Mustapha cut
off the heads of all the killed, and has
paIadcd them in triumph through the
town. The wretched EudaSia, on dis
covering the treachcry Rher hover,
has fallenrntoa state of complete aban-
donment, and is believed to have en-
tirely lost her senses. Mustapha has ia
ken her into his own palace. and or
dered that every care her deplorableI
condition requires shall be lsvished on
her."
