letter: Of all the romantic stories in IN.
Arabian Nights, there is none more extra.
ordinary than the little episode that has
just occurred at st. Petersburg. You win
have noticed that an attempt was made TO
shoot the Emperor, which was frustrated
by the prompt action Of young man who
stood near the would-be assassin. That
young man, acting from q momentary i'm.
pulse in striking down the arm he saw
raised against his sovereign, was afterwards
80 frightened at his own rasl.ness that he
ran away Us fast as his legs could carry
him. He was pursued and brought back
to the presence of the Emperor, at whose
feet he threw himself in state of abiec.
terror, as if he had been the assassin him.

and kissed him, and proclaimed him .

set on foot to provide him with means TO
sustain his new dignity, and presents are

stated that something told him he must
do it," He said this woman had never

ragged condition at the time the deed-was
committed.
