The man hcaiing all this welcome intelligence concern ing his wife, his son, and his [ piopeiiy, wan so lejoiced that like began to eat with still great er appetite, but offered the Clanguifhing Arab not a single morfcl. This unfortunate wretch, tormented with the pangs of hunger, was now a. shamed of his flattery, and said to himfelf, “ I must attack this covctuous and infatible fellow in another way.” At this moment a dog came up; allured by the smell of the vic tuals, he tsood still and wag ged his taill. “ Y'es,” said the hungary Arab, “if thy dog were still alive, hewould have wagged his tail exaftly in the same man ner.” —“Alas ! “exclaimed the man, “ is my dog dead? How did he perifti ? ’ By drinking the blood of thy camel! said the Arab. What! did my camel die too ? No, replied the Arab, they killed it for the funeral dinner of Chalid’s mother. O, heavens ! is Chalid’s mo ther dead ? Yes, answered the Arab. Os what dilorder did flic die? Os what disorder ? she struck her head wiih such vio lence against Chalid’s tomb, that she died of the wound. What ! my son dead to ? A violent earthquake demol flicd thy house, said the Ar iab, and he was buried beneath ihe ruins.
