An Incident In the Trial Of a
Turkish Pasha.

An incident in the trial Of Ahmet Pasha
will serve to show the depth of his treacb
cry and the Llackness Of his own heart:
"Why did you allow this wholesale muir
der Of the people of the SultUn's city ?"
said Fuad Pasha.
To punish the Christians" coOlly re-
Piled the late Governor General.
Punish the Christians For what
am not aware that you had any orders to
punish the Christians-let me see them"
sThe Christians had conspired against
the Government Of the Sultan, and | wish
ed to punish them for theiI treachery."
Show me the evidence Of this cUnspi.
racy," faid Faud Pasha.
q Here it is; read it, and see, that |
have been faithful to my master, and
Ahmet Pasha drew forth long document,
signed by the seals Of about fifty Of the
principal citizens Of Damascus, containing
a plot against the Turkish Government.
Send for the persons whose names are
appended to this document and confront
them with these signatures"
They we're brought and examined and
cross questioned, but no light could be
gained. They denied all knowledge Of
such document but acknowledged the
resemblance of the signature and seals to
their own. Their astOnisbment seemed so
natural that Faud Pasha was for mo-
ment puzzled to know whether the Pasha
was deceiying him or whether the Chris
tians were really conspirators, or the VIC
Tins IF some hellish fraud. A few mos
ments reflection suggested au expedient
which solved the difficulty.
The seal makers Of all eastern cities are
limited in number, and are licensed by
the Government AID as every mans sig
nature is thus In their hands-for Orien-
tails, instead of signing their names, use
small copper or brass seal-they are
placed under bonds to prevent them from
forging. An order was given for the arrest
Of the six seal makers of Damascus, and
they were brought into court. Being duly
questioned as 10 the number of scales made
during the year, they gave no indication OF
bad faith, when Fuad Pasha announced tho
discovery of the forgery Of fifty Christian
names, and told them, as they hoped for
pardon, TO confess fully their guilt.
Greatly terrified, two seal makers came
forward and threw themselves at his feet
They testified that they had been taken Sc
cret1y to the house Of Turkish Efendi,
and were forced to by threats of violence,
TO make duplicates of fifty Christian seals
in possession, but they were entirely igno-
rant Of the use made Of them, as they were
sent away by the Efendi with a reward,
after having given solemn promise never
TO make the matter public.
Faud Pasha arose from his seat, and af.
ter splitting in the face Of Ahmet Pasha
ordered him to the lowest dungeon.
