following is an account of -the observations I have
made, on the accuracy of which 'you may rely : •
o The Emperor of Morocco wishes-to have no war
with any European Power : on the contrary, he
dreads them exceedingly : and the secret aject of
his precipitate journey to Tangiers was to ascettain
whether the projects of England, and those of the
Association over which.you preside, tended to torn,
prebend him as one of the Baibai y Powers in the
animadversion excited against Algiers by the con:fact
of that Regency. The English Consul, to whom he
explained himself,' answered in the oegative ; because
he had been pacific and moderate, and did not imi
tate the conduct of the ferocious
,Algerine Tuiks
He also came here to receive the presents of the
Consuls for the Ramadan, for be is very fund of
these gifts. There is, however, no truth in his
baying projects against Ceuta or Spain, though he
is very much dissatisfied at the extensive smuggling
carried on by the Spaniards on the coast of Rit to
the east of Tetuan ; to prevent which, it is said, he.
has fitted out his two frigates, one 01. 'which is an-
chored here, and the other at Tetuan. Had 1 seen
him,
..or had any one else had the.courage to tell
him a useful truth, it would bare been prosier to have
shewn . him, that tilts was not the time, when the
Algerines are ciammtuing horridpiracies (same de-
tails of which I shall give you by the first courier),
for sending out armed venele. • •

secretly asfist the Algerinea, if. he be. not watched,
and if a bold and vigilant agent.dh not prevent hins:
am infotmed (and I shill acquaint you with cer-
tainty by the next courier, whether the -information
be true) that the Jews at Sale have purchased salt-
petre for Algiers, and that, he not only anthorites its
exportation, but exempts it from the. duties. He is
the mortal enemy of every kind of trade with•gero-
vans. •He allows none of-his • subjects, whether
blusstilmen 'or Jews-, to go beyond seas and prohibits
exportations, particularly: Of cern. At present he
has a legitintaie pretext for this' prohibition, the. lo-
custs • having destroyed the last harvest and laid
waste the country. The only articles he permits' to
go abroad are gums and wax: nothing else, not even
-dates and oranges can be _exported.. Cattle caw Only-
be sent to. Gibrakar.-and that limited precisely to
the number stipulated' in the treaty with England.
He has told all the Consuls that the happiest day of,
his life would' be that-in which-his custom duties-did
not produce a blaseall (the smallest piece of money)
that he wants nothing from any Enrorean Power,
ind lvisitei that nont of them may want any thing
from him. • • Ailbe•same ii he says. there is'
