Text Appearing Before Image:
like the Highlander of old, though feudallybound to follow his suzerain, requires the orderof his immediate chief, and the latter, when mostwanted, is uncommonly likely to rat or torevolt. The mercenaries of Zanzibar nomi-nally receive $2 to S3 per mensem, with rations:practically, the money finds its way more orless into the pocket of the Jemadar or C. 0-The fort is here garrisoned by some 80 of thesemen and their negro slaves : the former areequal to double the numl)er of Arabs in thefield, and behind walls they are a match for anation of savages. Police by day and nightpatrols are much wanted at Zanzibar, whereevery man must be his own Robert. Theslaves are unruly subjects; even those of thefort will commit an occasional murder, and thesuburbs are still far from safe during the dark ^ It is hardly necessary to correct in these days the error ofCarsten Niebuhr, who made the Belludges (Baloch) a tribe ofArabs. The Baloch mercenaries will be found further noticedin Part II. chap. vi.
