reminds him of the assurances of His Highness Mahomed
All Pasha An Ottoman title used after the names of certain provincial governors, high-ranking officials and military commanders. to Her Majesty's Government.
One Hajee Kasim, formerly supercargo of a trading vessel, is
sent from Bushire as envoy from the Government ofShiraz
to Bahrein, having an escort of ten Sirbaz, to reside on the
island as Persian Agent, and be the medium of receiving
and transmitting the annual tribute, which the Persian
authorities vainly flattered themselves the Bahrein Chief
_jyas disposed to pay for their countenance and protection.
Hostilities are carried on between the A1 All at Aboothabee
and the people of Bahrein, which entail much distress
upon the merchants of the latter. The Assistant Resident
is despatched, to bring about a reconciliation. As no
terms would be entered into that had not the guarantee of
the British Government, his mission is of no avail.
The friendship between Esai bin Tarif and the Chief of
Aboothabee is interrupted: the latter, who was under
friendly communication with the Chief of Bahrein, requires
him to leave his country, or settle there permanently as a
peaceable subject. He is therefore obliged to relinquish
the prosecution of further aggressions.
Abdoolla bin Ahmed becomes tributary to the Egyptians, not
withstanding his having promised to communicate with the
Resident previous to placing himself under the protection
of any other foreign power; being aware of the light in
which Korshid Pasha An Ottoman title used after the names of certain provincial governors, high-ranking officials and military commanders. 's proceedings are viewed by the Bri
tish Government, and the encouragement he had received
from them to assert his rights and maintain his independence.
He declares, however, that it has been expressly stipulated
by him that no Agent of the Pasha An Ottoman title used after the names of certain provincial governors, high-ranking officials and military commanders. should reside in Bah
rein. The quarrels and dissensions among the members
of the Uttoobee Chief's family grow more serious. He
brings over a body of mercenary Bedouins from the main
land. His own weak and vacillating conduct greatly
disgusts the inhabitants.
3sai bin Tarif and his dependents remove from Aboothabee,
on the termination of the pearl fishery, and settle on the
island of Kenn, whence, he is forewarned, he will be pre
cluded from carrying on aggressive warfare against any
part of the Arabian Coast.
