There is no Recently Deleted folder in iPhoto. You must be using Photos as that's where that smart album is used. When you empty the Recently Deleted album it goes away from the sidebar or menu bar. When you delete another photo it will return.

Version 1.3 (350.23.0) is what I'm using and I cannot find a Deleted Folder. Have deleted more photos and still don't see it.

Repair the library according to the instructions in this Apple document: Repair Your Library.

Note: If you use iCloud Photo Library with Photos, this action will cause Photos to upload all your pictures again (from Fix missing or incorrect thumbnails in Photos - Apple Support).
