FEAT OF MAGIC.-The Khan of Eliza bethpol had ring of extraordinary value, which contained tasman. Once he lost this out of the ring, and all his efforts to find it were unwilling. A Tarter woman celebrated for her sorcery, was summoned she desired that vergin should be called in, and ordered her to sit down in the middle of the room, with dish of water placed before her; then with a large white cloth she covered both the maiden and the vessel and commanded the former to look into the water without turning round; she next seated herself behind the girl, and from book she brought with her read various incantations. After while she asked the maiden what she saw. "I see horsemen with long red garments" "Let them pass on." Then she muttered her incantations again, and enquired, What do you see nowH' l see women on horseback in green dresses" was the reply. "Let them pass" After pause she repeated her question. "I see boys in blue raiment" "Let them past" Once more there was mutterng of spells. "What do you now behold?" "Maidens in white flowing garments" "Ask them where the lost stone is to be found" "They answer, in the garden of the Khan" Then the witch went into the garden, divided it into seven parts, sat down, and began her incantations afresh; after awhile she fixed upon one of the seven parts and divided it into three, repeating the division until only one tree remained; this she also divided into three, until only one branch was left, at last only one leaf, and under this the talisman was found ITanscaescdsio.
