in which the rngeaders of the instruction took passage
promising TO follow after them. But it appears from the
letter of Raggo, that their intention steer an
other course and keep booty TO themselves The long

THE SLIPPERS.
AN ARABIAN TALE.
Translated from the Frenct.

There formerly lived at Bagdad an old
shopkeeper, Abon Cassam, by name ;
much celebrated for his avarice. Tho
he was exceedingly rich his clothes were
composed Of shreds and patches his tur-
ban, of the coarsest linen, was so filthy,
dirty, and greasy that its original coor
could no longer bo distinguished bu. Of
all his wardrobe the whole of which he
carried on him his slippers merted tho
particular attention Of the curious. The
soles were ornamenled with immense
hob-nals, and tho uppors were apparent
ly nothing but patches. The far famed
ship Argo itself, was not composed of rs
many pieces and during the ten years
that they had been slippers, the most skill
ful coblers of the country had exhausted
all the ingenuity Of their art, IN collecting
and drawing together their ruins. They
had even become SO weighty as to be q
proveib and when his townsmen wished
to speak ofany thing as peculiarly bur-
thensome the slippers ofCassam were the
objects of comparison.
One day as the merchant was walking
in the grand bazaar of the city, some one
offered to sell him considerable quanti-
ty Of chrystal, he quickly concluded tho
bargain as it was an advantageous one
Having learned some days after, that a
ruined perfumor, being compelled as a
last resource, to sell quantity OF the f.
nest rose waters, the merchant, profited
by the misfortune of this poor man, and
purchased the rose water at less than hall
its value. This good fortune put him in
a good humour in place Of giving great
feast, as was the custom of the eastern
merchants, when they made good bar
gain, he found il expedient to venture GO
ing to the bath, where he had not been
Tor long time. .J
As ne was taking or his garments, one
Of his friends, or at least he took to be
such, (for misers very rarely have friends
told him that his slippers. made him the
laughing stock Of tho whole city, and
that he ought TO purchase others.
az have been thinking Of that for a
long time replied Cassam, "but indeed
they are not so much worn out, but that
can wear them sometime yet"
During this conversation he had entered
the bath room. Whilst he was bathing
the Cadi of Bagdud came in also. Cas-
sam having finished before the Judge pas
sed into the outer room, he dressed but
sourh, in VAIN for his slippers, but in tho
place of them he found a beautiful new
pair. Our miser persuaded himself be-
cause he wished it-lha, he who had sPo-
ken so we'll, had LEFT them as a present |;
and put them on, and LEFT the bath IN very
