choly event which was occasioned by the savageness
and cruelty of the licentious soldiery in that country,
and furnishes, unhappily, a new proof of the danger

but that they were at liberty, in order to live quietly
in the bosom of their families, to return to Cairo,
where he would give those who are advanced in year
a pension, and find employment in the service for
the strong and able. This corps of the Beys and
Mamelukes, once so powerful, is now reditced, ac.
cording to credible accounts, to 500 men.
