seamanship. There are at present some three
hundred scholars, who presented very neat
appearance. We rose early next morning, in
order to visit the rest, and, taking a caique, we
steered for the principal one called Princes Is
land, from which the group takes its name.
As we foated across the water, the scene that
presented itself was truly beautiful. The sun
was Just rising from the waves Of the Marmora,
gliding the far-off domes and minarets OF
STEAMBOAT. The Bythinian Olympus doomed
up in the distance on the Asiatic shore, its
snow-capped summit glitteringin the sunbeams
The placid Propontis reflected from its bosom
the lovely islands that surrounded US while
the morning breeze waited from their hills the
sweet odor of the wild geranium, with which
they are covered. Twas, indeed, scene not
easily to be forgotten.
Princes island, the largest of the group, is
some eighteen miles in circumference, and is
much frequented during the summer season,
not only on account of the GOODNESS of its stu
alton, but also for its medicinal springs, which
are held in high repute. Many OF the wealthy
merchants of Pera and the pashas Of Constan-
tinople have built villas upon its heights. The
vineyards are very fine, the soil being well
adapted to the cultivation of the grape. There
is quite large town built upon one Of its east
ern slopes. The rest have nothing upon them
worthy of mentioning. As there was no boat
for several days, we were obliged to return to
Constantinople in large caique; the wind was
fair, and we reached there as soon, perhaps, as
if we had been upon the steamer.
On Thursday last the Mussulmans celebrated
the feast of Kadil Ghedjessi, which always pre-
cedes the fast of the Pamazan of fifty days.
This feast takes place on the Friday before the
moon Of the Reajeb. Allthe public buildingsare
brilliantly illuminated, and the variegated lights
on the minarets of the mosques presented a
beautiful and picturesque appearance. The
faithful pass Thursday night in prayer, and on
the succeeding day all the ministers Of the
government exchange visits of congratulation.
just as was closing my letter for the mail,
| learned that a special carrier arrived from
the Danube, bringing the intelligence that the
Turks under Omer Pasha had been completely
routed by the Russians in two separate en-
gagements, with loss of 5000 men and that
Matchin, with all its cannon and munitions Of
war; had been captured by the enemy. The
Turkish general had fallen back, and was now
shut up in the strong fortress Of Choumla. The
shi-banjouks had acted as was anticipated
They made but a slight resistance, flying from
the field Of battle after the first encounter; and,
in their retreat, committed the most horrible
outrages upon the people Of the country. They
fell upon an unprotected village, plundering
and killing many of its inhabitants. c.

A FANCY Thief.-several DAYS ago a friend

A Fancy Thief-Several days ago friend of
ours, while in certain store, on Pennsylvania
avenue, saw weldressed woman plentfuly sup
ply her capacious side-pockets with u number OF
pretty little china and other articles, such as would
ornament the parlor mantlepiece, or prove at
tractive on the shelves of one of those "baby-
houses known as. swhat-nots,n now SO fashion
able among female adults. She doubtless thought
that her respectable appearance would shield her
from suspicion Our friend, however, loves to
look at the fair SEX and hence his eye had atten-
lively watched her movements. Seeking favor
able opportunity, he privately informed the store
keeper OF the larceny; when the latter invited the
woman, who was old enough TO know better, into
his private office, and politely asked her name, so
that he could charge to her, upon the books the
articles 10 which she had quietly helped her
self She evinced little surprise, and perhap
thought for a moment that the merchant was gliled
with clairvoyant powers, or had connexion with
spiritual medium; but, being strong-mlnded
woman, she recovered her equilibrium, and then
the merchant recovered his goods, for she, win
exceeding grace, emptied her pockets, and depart
ed with the calmness, apparently, OF one who mao
merely committed a slight mistake.
