The last steamer from Trebiz9nd
brought among her passengers Adile
HAnum. She is one of the rotable char
acters of the recent war. She is a native
ofBagdad, and aMohammedan by religion
She is rich and enthusiastically devoted
to her country, wears the yiel, and is as
brave as she is fair. AT the beginning
of the war she rode into the camp of
chazi Moukta Pasha, at the head OF fifty
six mounted troopers. At first the Turk
ish General declined to accept her serv-
ices, but as she persisted, be gave her
the command OF the forces she had
brought with her, and of the recruits she
could induce to join her ranks.
Atthis time Monkta Pasha was await

tier. The weather grew cold, and great
were the priyations and sufferings of his
army in that mountainous regioR. Most
at the battles we're fought on frozen
ground, and among the sno covered
crests Of the Ararat range. The patience
she exhibited under severe sufering, and
her hardihood seemed to nerve the Turk
ISL soldiers. Her greatest fault was her
reckless courage. When the word to
charge was given, she was eff like a
streak Of lightning. She took part in
the battle and seiges of Bapazid, Kars,
Arabian, and Horum, aud on " 0ccas.

six men, twenty were taken prisoners,

The Minister of War has received her as
a guest. The Sultan has sent word that
he desired to make her acquaintance
