BALLIOLENSIS.

_Sathaniel._--Can any of your correspondents inform me in what book, play,

poem, or novel, a character named Sathaniel appears? There is a rather

common picture bearing that title; it represents a dark young lady, in

Eastern dishabille, with a turban on her head, reclining on a

many-cushioned divan, and holding up a jewel in one hand. I have seen the

picture so often, that my curiosity as to the origin of the subject has

been completely aroused; and I have never yet found any one able to satisfy

it.
