the quarters Of the Mussuman soldiery.
Winrate met the moslem aga-or leader-walk-

where his company were quartered, quietly
smoking his chcboque.

The moslem, seeing that such most proba-

aid of Roderick, succeeded in shaking off his in

slight wound in the a1ray; he borne Oft to
the convent where, owing to the loss Of blood,
and the violence of his feelings he became Sc

night During his indispositon-the first he had
ever experienced--he had time for thought, and
he walked forth from his confinement, wiser, a
more prudent man. But he had by no means
forgotten Naomi no sooner was he able TO travel
: than he set forward for Cairo, in hopes of dis
covering some trace of the beautiful Jewess. He
arrived at the chiefcity Of the Egyptian pachalic
