Personal appearances and character of Muley Abd Errahman. Refutation of the charge of human sacrifices against the Moorish Princes. Genealogy of the reigning dynasty of Morocco. Muley Suleiman, the "The Shereeff of Shereefs." Diplomatic relations of the Emperor of Morocco with European Powers. Muley Ismael enamoured with the French Princess de Conti.
Muley Abd Errahman was nominated to the throne by the solemn and dying request of his uncle, Muley Suleiman, to the detriment of his own children. He belonged to one of the most illustrious branches of the reigning dynasty.
But this port, and our influence receiving thereby a great shock, I am happy to state that the latest account from this most interesting Moorish country, represents Muley Abd Errahman as steadily pursuing, by the assistance of his new vizier, Bouseilam, the most pacific policy.
In transmitting the sceptre to him, Muley Suleiman, therefore, only performed an act of justice. Muley Abd Errahman, during his long reign, rendered the imperial authority more solid than formerly, and established a species of conservative government in a semi-barbarous country, and exposed to continual commotions, like all Asiatic and African states.
If you had told Muley Abd Errahman you had been coming here, he would have sent me a letter by you." "I have no doubt of it." His Excellency. "How is your Sultan?" "Very well, thank you?" His Excellency. "When did you last see Sidi Abd-el-Kader?" "Not very lately." His Excellency. "He is a prophet." Interrogatory, by Sheikh Jabour. The Sheikh. "What did Ouweek to you?" "He was very rude."
Went to call upon Hateetah, and met in the way a son of Abd Errahman of Ghadames, who has just returned from the oases of Touat. The oases of Touat have unwalled towns, or scattered hamlets, but the country is perfectly secure.
I often found him chatty and facetious, but sometimes he was sulky and morose, and would not speak for hours together. He had a fine horse, but rarely could be prevailed upon to go out and ride for his health. Every great man has his shadow, his echo, the expression of himself more or less in his fellow men. The Rais's shadow is one Abd Errahman, a small merchant.
It seems nations are to be governed always by setting up one portion of the people against the other. Muley Abd Errahman was chosen by his uncle, on account of his pacific and frugal habits, educated as he was by being made in early life the administrator of the customs in Mogador, and as a prince likely to preserve and consolidate the empire.
On reaching Gibraltar, I made the acquaintance of Frenerry, who for thirty years has been a merchant in Morocco. Mr. Frenerry had frequent opportunities of personal intercourse with Muley Abd Errahman, and had more influence with him than the British Consul.
This minister, being very rich, is enabled to consolidate his power by frequent presents to his royal master, thus gratifying the most darling passion of Muley Abd Errahman, and Vizier and Sultan amuse themselves by undertaking plundering expeditions against insurrectionary tribes, whose sedition they first stimulate, and then quell, that is to say, by receiving from the unlucky rebels a handsome gratification.
