And hearts as ours together,
Moorish Slavery.

1t would do those good who write
passionate articles on Moorish slavery
to see the well fed, lazy slave of
Wazan lounging in the sun, kiff pipe
In mouth and scarcely doing a stroke
of work from weeks end to weeks
end. The most ordinary English kitch-
enmaid would accomplish in a couple
of hours what WaZan slave does in o
week All are free to come and go as
they please, but none avails himself
of this freedom. The reason is not far
to seek. In Wazan they are fed and
clothed by the shereefs and on holt
days and feast days receive presents Of
money.
Thus all the necessities of life are
found them without their having to
work for them, which otherwise they
would be obliged to do. Nor is it only
the necessities of life that are thus
supplied to them free, but they are
given each his room to live in and mar
ried at the expense of the shereefs to
slave women. Their children, by law
slaves, are not necessarily SO and are
often apprenticed to workmen to learn
some trade or if they wish are free to
seek their fortune in other lands
