It is at present the commencement of spring, and the heat at two hours after mid-day, at least to the sense, is as great as in the month of the summer solstice, in Cairo. I have seen no ferocious animals, either in Berber or the country below, and believe that they are rare. 5th of Regeb.

"The conditions of peace agreed and sworn between Abdelaziz, the son of Musa, the son of Nassir, and Theodemir prince of the Goths. Given the fourth of Regeb, in the year of the Hegira ninety-four, and subscribed with the names of four Mussulman witnesses."

I told him, if circumstances would admit it, I would visit him in a few days. From the 10th of Regeb to the end of the moon, nothing worth notice took place, except the successive and gradual arrival of the remainder of the cannon, ammunition, stores and troops from the cataract, which had been left there when the Pasha quitted it, for want of camels to transport them.

Toledo, too, he invested, but in vain. He returned to Africa, caused his son Mahomet to be declared wali alhadi, and died, the 22d day of the moon Regeb, A.H. 595. He left behind him the character of an able, a valiant, a liberal, a just, and even magnanimous prince of one who labored more for the real welfare of his people than any other potentate of his age.

9. 2nd Jumay Acher, 1289, letter from Abou Saood, Fatiko. 10. 29th Jumay Owal, 1289, order for confiscation of Fatiko after the attack made upon the troops. Letter from officers of Fabbo. 12. 4th Regeb, 1289, report of Abou Saood's escape with government guns, &c. 13. 22nd Jumay Acher, 1289, letter from vakeel Suleiman, Fabbo.

They are expected to arrive in a few days, if not delayed by the sickness of Ibrihim Cacheff, who, it is said in the camp, is dangerously ill on the road. 7th of Regeb. This day Nousreddin, the Malek of Berber, came to kiss the hand of the Pasha. He had been prevented from paying his homage to the conqueror heretofore by sickness.

Tell him also not to hide himself during the action: let him meet me face to face!" The two armies engaged the 13th day of the moon Regeb, A.H. 479. The onset of Alfonso at the head of the Christian cavalry was so fierce that the ranks of the Almoravides were thrown into confusion; not less successful was Sancho, King of Navarre, against the Andalusians, who retreated toward Badajoz.
