Scarcely bad she seated herself upon a sofa when a second domestic opened the door of a handsome saloon, and tall old man, wrapped in a rich morning gown, advanced and said— "Of what service can I be to yon.

Such an occnrrence, in any other part of the world, would certainly seem incredible, but in a wonderful city like -Paris, it is only n common-place affair. PERILS OT TBS ARABIAN DESERT—THE SIXOOH ABO m HOBROHSThe following is a graphic account of the simoon, that terror of those etossing the Desert, and the Scenes that attend it, encountered near Doan : The heavens became suddenly obscured by h^hvy clouds, until the sun, rayiess and as red as blood, warned us of the approaching tempest. Whirlwinds of Band, mingled with the falling vahwepl the Desert, which surged before the blast like angry waters. We hastily ranged ourselves in Indian Ole,, so as to present as little service os pos sible to the coming simoon, for which, this occasion, we were not nnprepar-

ed.

Gradually oor -lugs became oppressed, one eyas bloodshot, our lips Lot and parched. The air around us ecousbing breath of a furnace, was charged with particles of fine sand drifted bcwtad like se«-/o*m in a storm.

Among then we found a young man and a girl—brother and sister—clasped in each others arms. A slight indication of moisture on the bodies of these inspired one witb hope that it might not yet be too late to restore them to consciousness. By judicious and persevering friction, and tbe copious use of lavender water, with which, luckily, I was always well supplied, I soon had tbe pleasure of seeing the young girl revive ; while Selim, by the application of similar remedies lo the youth was equal-
