The sultan then beckoned to him very graciously, and he ap- proached about half the distance of separation. Sir Robert now made his speech, which was translated by the principal dragoman of the Porte. The caimacan not repeating it fast enough, or to the satisfaction of the sultan, it was taken up by his highness, who fi...nished the sentence himself. This is esteemed a very great compliment, as usually the sultan is not supposed to vouchsafe even a look towards a Giaour. Without appearing to do so, he took a comprehen- sive view of us all : not seeing Captain Lyons, he in- quired for him. Observing M. Chabert, who is an oldish man, and whom he knew very well by sight, he said, " I perceive Chabert dyes his mustaches; but he must put on a greater quantity before he can make himself look young again.
