The Jews of Morocco are to my mind
mt once the most interesting and the
most trying race of people | ever met,
says Il letter to the Boston TRANSCRIPT.
Subject to restrictions i'll their life and
business which would extcrminatr nj
ordinary race Of people in two genera
tions, they have grown, prospered, aud
III many places ale masters of their
masters. 1t would take more room
than could give TO tell you the story
OF the Jews in Morocco, So, | f.iuSt be
content with the slijTiest sketch posi-
Die. No m knows Just where the
Moorish Jews camc from, butof course
they have been connected with the lost
tribes and all that, The main facts
are. that they gre Iii Morocco without
knowing themselves just how they got
there. Among the anomalies con
nccted with them is thatthcy are hated
and despised by the Moors, st,biect to
every insult and degradation that can
be iniagiacui yet they are recognized
as such Necessary members of society
that there is Il law, which is actively
enforced, forbIdding Jews to leave the
country under an. Circumstances. The
Jews. outside of one q twoc onsttowns,
are treated worse than the m@cancstand
lowest aninnlS; and, whether in the
way Of retaliation or t!i9 means which
Ill the !irst ,,'Suc secured this brutal
tteTtlnent | am not competent to say,
they in return treat the Moors with fair
ly dcVilish cruelty when they yet them
III their power, Il stlcy often do through
money transactions; for. as in other
lands, the superior cunning of theJews
makes them the BANKERS Of thecuuntry,
and, with ii debtors law which allows
the Imprisonment of II man until his
debt is discharged, there are ample op-
pottuhitics for the Jews to act as iicnds
incarnatc.
In return for this Il Moor thinks nc
more of killing a dew. ii he can do it
quietly, than Of killing y rat. The
Jews are no allowed to carry arms OF
any kind. nor To ride upon u horse,
mule, donkey, or bullock, but mus
make all Journeys on foot; neither are
they allowed to Wear any foot covering
outside of their own quarter, where
they are hcrded together like animal's,
their dress being regulated and re.
