Rival diplomacy of France and England near the Maroquine Court. Mr. Hay's correspondence with this Court on the Slave-trade. Treaties between Great Britain and Morocco; how defective and requiring amendment. Unwritten engagements.
A change has come over the Maroquine mind, which, as to its immediate effects, is evidently for the worst towards us Christians. The distrust of all Europeans, which existed before the French hostilities, is now enlarged to hatred, a feeling from which even the English are hardly excepted.
The Maroquine merchants live in style and luxury at Timbuctoo, and tea, coffee, and sugar may be obtained from them at a reasonable price. The residence of an European at Timbuctoo may, perhaps, be considered secure for a short time; but the grand difficulty is to get there, and when you get there, to get safe back again.
His son, Edris-Ben-Edris, who inherited his virtues and influence, offering a species of ancient prototype to Abd-el Kader and his venerable father, Mahadin, was the first bona-fide Mussulman sovereign of the Maroquine empire, and founded Fez.
This, a Maroquine prince cannot comprehend, and he decides as to the riches and poverty of his country by the amount he possesses in his royal vaults.
The future alone can disclose what will be the particular result of this unfavourable feeling; both with respect to France and England, and to other European nations. However, we may look forward without misgiving. Islamism will wear itself out the Crescent must wane. In these preliminary observations, the commercial system of the Maroquine Court deserves especial mention.
It was said afterwards by the Maroquine Government, that "The order was merely to bring him to Morocco, and that, when being conveyed as prisoner, and after attempting to run away, the soldiers of his escort shot him." The Moorish Government also pretend that Darmon attempted first to shoot the guards who shot him, in self-defence.
Phillips, Captain of the Port Rumours amongst the People about my Mission. Visit to the Cemeteries. Maroquine Wreckers. Health of the inhabitants of Mogador. Moorish Cavaliers "playing at powder" composed of the ancient Nuraidians. The Barb. The Life Guards of the Moorish Emperor. Martial character of the Negro. Some account of the Black Corps of the Shereefs.
Turks are not found in Morocco, and do not come so far west; but sons of Turks by Moorish women in Kouroglies are included among the Moors, that have emigrated from Algeria. Maroquine Berbers, include the varieties of the Amayeegh and the Shelouh, who mostly are located in the mountains, while the Arabs are settled on the plains.
A Maroquine rabbi told me they are somewhere about the regions of Gog and Magog, in Central Asia, situate in a country where there is a river running perpetually six days out of seven, very rapid and full of stones, so that they cannot pass it and return to the Holy Land. On the seventh it stops, when it might be passed, but on the Sabbath day the law does not permit them to travel.
