near the French camp between the Moors and
the forces under General Drude was one Of the
most serious engagements since the occupation
Of Casablanca. The Moorish attack was unex

flaming burnoose was seen in the thickest Of the
fray.

noitering party by Moorish cavalry. The French
at first drove the enemy off, but the natives
ceived reinforcements. and this obliged General
Drude to send out detachment to extricate his

engaged. The loss Of the latter is not known,
but il Is believed to have been heavy. French
officers counted the bodies of twenty Moors in
one roadway. The French loss was fifteen men
killed or wounded.

party was attacked by fifteen hundred Moors.
