The Cossacks —The following amusing
anececlotes of this j ileresiing people ftrt
derived from a work recently published,
entitled“CharsOtrristic Povrai's of ih
v.irious Tribes of Cos. c »oks attached to t he
Allied Armies in the campaign of ISIS
Taken from life at Paris, and accompanied
by historical particular.*,” &c.
Speaking of the period when they
V’crea' Dresden, the writer proceeds
—“ It appears that these rude people
ate by no means insensible to ihe charms
of music, of widen they ith-.uifest astnong
predilection: A party of them attached
by the solem peal cf the organ, enterei .
a church, and wliile-it was playing, con
tinued fixed in silent attention. -Its tones
Ceased and the officiating clergyman
commenced his sermon. T-hisaddress, in
an unknown language, soon began to ex
cite symptoms of impatience in the stran
gers ; one of whofn stealing softly up the
steps of the pulpit unobserved by the
minister, startled hiih not a little by tap.
ping liimon the shoulder in the midst of
the harrangue, and inviting him, ss well
as he could by signs, accompanied by all
sorts of grotesque gestures, to descei d,
and no longer interrup* die graft ideation
with the organist afforded to himself and
his companions. Notwithstanding the so
lemnity of the place the gravity of the
minister and his congregation were not
proof against this attack, and it aas some
time before the former could sofa? re
cover from its iudicirous elfc*i as to re
sume bis discourse.
This fondness of music was displayed
on another occasion. A young lady of u
respcciable family , was seated jut her pi
ano forte playing ami Binging-. She was
h. aril by a Cossack, who was passing «n
tier the window. As if enchanted, be
followed the. melodious gaiii.< », pm sued
his way up stairs, from room to room, and
after travail big several apartments dscbv
ered the right one. He entered, and
stood listening behind the loan'y musician,
who, half dead with fear, on perceiving
the figure of her in attain visitor in a mir
ror would naUindiy have iun away, lie
detained her, and, in unlelligiblc lun
guagi, but with friendly gestures, beg
ged for aDa lupo ; and, wilhont ceremo
ny fetched Ids com rads out of the street.
The music soon relaxed the joints rtf the
bearded cur.iors, and iii a (l w moments
they struck up a charming Cossack dance
in the best room in the house. The
trembling girl was obliged to summon up
all her courage and strength that her fin
gers m-glit not refuse to perform their of
fice in litis critical juncture. She return
ed sincere thanks to Heaven when the
dance was over, and was not a little sur
prised when one of the delighted per
ibrmert, with the most cordial gestures,
laid apiece of gold on the piano lorte. It
was to no purpose that the young lady re
fused it; the donors retired leaving be
hind them the piece of moxey- which
the fair one will doubtless preserve with
■;are as a memorial of Hie lovers of dan
cing and music from the deserts of Asia
The naivete of these people was expres-,
sed in a very different manner towards un
otheryouug lady likewise of a gent.c i fam
ily who, out of economy and supposing'her
guests to be so inured to hardship, .v to
be proof to all sorts of weather, had direc
ted that no tire should be made in the quar
ters destined for them. Dissatisliedwilii the
place, they studied out in a quest of a warvi
cr lodging. It v asnot long before they dis
c> vered one. This was the apartment cf !

saying, the reconnoitering parly took a
strong position aguinai the cold in Mams

soon transported. Mamsc.’l, unless she hud
chosen to turn Cossack too, was obliged to
relinquish her apaitments toiler pallint
guests and to procure in another the cli

A Cossack surrounded by a legion of boys
whom he sometimes took by tin* hand,

iad selliagcakes. He immediatly laid an
embargo on the whole stock of the itiner
