While on his way thiher he had fallen in with
party Of soiders-they were chatting SO busy that
they did no; notice his approach, From the tenor of
their conversation he discovered that the agree
ment between himself and Wingate to meet at
the pyramid, had BEEN by some means, discover
ed--probably it had been overheard by some one
in the pay Of the tyrant. 10 sooner had the
Jew gained this information than he fastened
away to the spot where he had informed Wingate
IA boat would be in readiness to convey him across
the Nile but upon his arrival there, the boat was
already gone. The jew was now utterly at a
loss what course to pursue, and after wandering
up and down for half an hour, trying TO fix upon
some project for the rescue of his young friend,
should he have fallen into the Pachas hands, he
returned home desparing of success. But the
quick wit of Naomi was more fertile in expedi-
ents The Jew had relation at the palace who
figured in the capacity of overseers or chamber
lain. II was known that the Pacha was absent,
and Naomi proposed that she should be sent thi tn
er, under the pretence that her father had per
suaded her to submit to the Pacha. Once in the
palace, she trusted, with the aid of this kinsman,
to be able to free her friends and to escape her
self before the Pachas return. The kinsman was
sent for-the capture of the young as
certaned and douceur of thousand dollars, Sc
cured in the chamberlain, oadutor Naomi
accordingly went with him to the palace, where
means were found to effect the liberation, as we
have already shown. AS soon as this was accom-
plshed, they donned DISCUSSES and escaped to Alb
solom's house, where they found some six or eight
of her fathers friends, armed and equipped to
conduct them to a place of safety. Jerusalem had
been pitched upon as their place of retreat, and
an untraveled route the desert had been de-
termined on, the better to avoid detection. 1t was
by this route that they arrived at Palmyra.
During the recital, Wingate's eyes were fire.
qnenty wandering in search of the young Jew
ess, and no sooner had the old man finished, than
he FASTENED towards her.
"Naomi,' said he, taking her hand, and leading
her apart from her companions, 81 owe you my
life How shall pay the debt-how shall ex-
press my gratitude towards YOU
In the brightness of the round moon, the desert
was almost as light as at meridian day, and when
for the first time, she drew aside her veil, and
discovered her features, ne tremDied before the
earnest expression of those large dark eyes-all
the deep fountains of the affections in his too sus-
ceptble heart were broken up.
"Gratitude debit - exclaimed she. "On my
side lies the ndebtedness-the gratitude. You, a
stranger, voluntarily rsked your life inmy behalf
and by 50 doing brought yourse ITO dungeon
aided in setting you at liberty, but you are still
under the dsploasure of the Pacha, and might
meet with a sudden end if you should fall again
into his power, which, may Heaven avert. Yes,
the weight of the gratitude is my side, and |
trust my father may yet find some means of eX-
pressing our sense OF Indebtedness to you
"Say no more about it, said Wingate, gazing
with admiration at the thoughtful countcnance
of the Jewess as she stood facing the moonlight,
than which, that of the Forentine Venus could
not have been more regular or lovely. "To have
had the satisfaction Of assisting one noble and
generous, is sufficient compensation in itself -
Naomi could but notice the look of passionate
admiration with which he regarded her, and she
felt his trembling hand tighten its clasp in
hers, her eyes lowered, and her face became
sufused with crimson.
"Lady," continued her companion, 'can you
pardon me when tell you that from the moment
we parted at the gate of the Pacha's garden, you
have been in my thoughts-on the sea, in the city
in the desert, among those lovely ruins Our linn
tied intercourse will hardly warrant it, yet time
: passes-I must express my sentiments you have
awakened in me"
, "To horse to horse !" cried the sentoran
voice of the look out-"we are persued -
The old Jew came hurrying towards his daaght-
err. "Naomi ! Naomi - said he, ''your trials are
3, not yet over youmust into the saddle Perhaps
by fastening away in the shadow the ruins we
may yet escape detection
0 "But what will become ofmy preserver?" ex
claimed the weeping girl, still allowing Wingate
1 TO retain her hand. ''You would not leave hin
to the mercy of the Pachas soldiers"
: 81 have a passport from the French consul, en-
: dorsed by the Pacha's minister, and they may
: respect it" said Wingate.
n cat least your chance of safety is better with
9 it than in flying with US, said the old man.
