Confident in the impregnability of his town, the Bey of Constantine hadleft his harem there and the ladies of it were shut up in the palace, which had been turned into head-quarters, and where I was living withNemours. As may be imagined, this harem gave me subjects for manysketches, which disappeared, unluckily for me, in the sacking of theTuileries on February 24th, 1848. In one of the courtyards, planted withorange-trees and roses, and surrounded by the elegant Moorish balconiesof the Bey's ...Palace, there was a little door, which had been confided tothe care of the vivandiere of the 47th Regiment and of a sergeant majorof spahis, of the name of Bel-Kassem. It was the door into the harem andgave access to several courts, surrounded by galleries, both on theground floor and first story, on which opened spacious rooms carpetedwith divans and cushions and with shelves all round piled withquantities of things, knick-knacks, and, above all, stuffs, especiallysilken ones. The women--there were over two hundred of them--spent theirlives night and day alike, squatting or lying on the cushions in theseapartments.
