is not of a eery important nature, though taken as a supplément to what we have had during the past week, it is interesting enough.One thing U clear, the reports about the condition of Alexandria, after the bombardment of the forts which overlooked the harbour, and which pictured the doomed city in a most deplorable light, have been grossly exaggerated.We may believe that the devaatation was extensive, the suffering of the people great, and the looting and violence quite considerable, however.It is said that it will take all of twenty years' time to put the city into the shape it was before the monster guns of the \u201cInflexible\u201d roared into her streets» and destroyed her beauty and commerce.The massacroing of Europeans, too, has been seriously large, though not as large, we are glad to say, as was at first reported.On Sunday night, our late despatches told of a terrible butchery at Cairo, but the awful tidings contained no particulars beyond the mere announcement that many persons had been slain.We look for fuller news from Cairo to-day, though it is to ba hoped that the first rumour which came can be proved false.Akabi Pacha is daring and brave to ibolliardiness.One would have thought that the downfall of the forts would have shown him that his enemy was in no mood to be trifled with, and that the quality and calibre of English guns, and the skill of British gunners, were more than a match for any force which he might be able to array against them, on land or sea.But the stout Egyptian is determined to make one stand against Britain's might, and has accordingly drawn up all his available troops at Knfr el Dwar, where he is now busily engaged In entrenching himself.It li said his men are disaffected and gloomy over the experiences of the past few days.Good authority, however, states that the force consists of four regiments of infantry, id*» irregulars and a regiment of cavalry with 800 horses, 36 Krupp guns and 12 mitrailleuse.A reinforcement is expected from Cairo, led by the false Prophet.The Egyptians are reported as being eager for a decisive battle with the English, whom they have been told are only capable of fighting on soa.Arab:, himself, has spread the story Among his followers : that the British are so circumstanced, owing to internal troubles, that a land force, considerable in number, could not possibly be landed in Egypt.This tale has had its effect, and within the last few days the army of the Nationalist party has been somewhat augmented.Cairo isdestined to play an important part , in the little war now going on.It is the second city in Egypt and is the modem capital ot the country.Cairo, often called Grand Cairo, or El Chahirech, the victorious, is situated on the east bank of the Nile, some twelve miles above the top of the Delta, 115 miles from the sea, and 75 \u2022 miles west of Suez.A line of railway connects*it with Suez and Alexandria On Sunday last, however, the British cut the \u2022\u2022 railway at a point near Lake Mareatis, so *\tthis connection is now severed.An extensive stone wall surrounds the city, and the citadel described in these uoljmns some days ago, defends it.The palaces and harem of the Khxdive, the Mint, Div&ir, State Mosque and arsenal aro situated in this fortress.Cairo is thj largest city in Africa, and including the port of Bolvac on the Nile and Old Cairo, haa a population of over 315,000.Two hundred thousand of these are Egyptian Moslems, 18,000 are Copts and the remain- .der ate foreigners and Jews.The great imAacre of 1811, took place at Cairo, when many thousand of Mamelukes were butohered by order of Mbhkmet Au, one of the most atrocious tyrants who ever held sway in the land of the Pyramids-He it was who rebuilt and fortified ^axanius Citadel, and daily menaced his people with the guns which were levelled a£ .them from the huge bastions of the ' place.Cairo is one of the filthiest cities on.the face of the globe, and though magniffcent in some directions, it con-taipe quarters almost contemptible in meanness and squalor.It is the abode of the Khedive and the seat of Government.It is filled with spacious streets, magnificent buildings, mosques, squares, bazaars, public cisterns, baths and coffee houses.The children are taught in one hundred and forty public schools.Many of these I latter have a very superior curriculum.Arabian literature and Mohammedan theology are here taught with great efficiency.Among the buildings may be mentioned the Coptic church, the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Greek and Presbyterian churches.A number of Roman Catholio convents may also be found in Cairo.w -h.gentleman, long resident in Egypt, Mods to the Montreal Utar, some interesting notes regarding the capital.Ha speaks «hoe of the routes to Cairo \u201cAa a march into the interior will be the aexft thing in order, it may be interesting here to state the routes which the army must take is order to reach Cairo.I should first, *\thowever, remark that, generally speaking! there ash Si roads (railroads excepted) in the ooontryt Round Alexandria there are some fairly good roads, extending four or five miles from the city on which the Europeans take \u2022.thtu airings in carriages and on horseback, ana there is also the old caravan route, of which I shall speak later on.Indeed, roads are not requisite.Where water carriage by the canals is not available, there is the \u201cShip of the Desert\" for all purposes of freight, sud far personal locomotion, the fleet Arab horse, which fora four or five mile gallop home of an evening will take you over the ground at the rate of 20 miles an hour.Ibe routes ftrota Alexandria to Cairo available for troops an: \u201c1st.A land route over the line of railway to Cairo., \"Sad.A water route by the Mahmoudicb Canal to Atfeh, and then on by the Nile to Cairo.\u2018\u2022With reference to the tirst route, it may.I ÎSrï*\tArabi bey will strive AU^Ülïw h!I locomorir*a nor car» at the * \"oc* wlU b« burned off to Cairo if possible.The fleet, however, commanda the railway terminus\u2014whidi is called Gabari Station from its proximity to Gabari Palace, near which must be also the Gabari fort or forts,\u2014and hence may prevent the removal of the rolling stock.If there ia no local rolling stock, aud if none can be imported iu time, then the adoption of the laud route would mean footing it to Cairo through as hot a section of country tat this time of year) &s a man need ask for.\u201cAt this time ol year, the best thing au European (especially a British one) can do is to remain indoors between 6.30 a.m.and 6.30 p.m.For several hours during the day 1 think it would be almost impossible for troops fresh from England to march, and even if there were no troops to harass them, diarrhu>a and dysentery would do the enemy\u2019s work quite as well.\u201cThe water route is the one which was taken by alt overland travellers until the opening of the railway, some 20 years or more ago.There would be about 10 miles of canal travel and.I presume, about CO miles or more on the Nile.It would have this advantage over the other route, that there would be an abundant supply of fresli water the whole way.The troops would probably be taken up on \u201cDahabiyeha\u201d (a peculiarly shaped canal boat), and escorted by gunboats, but no meu-of-war could be taken to Cairo, for the canal is shallow and the mouth of the Nile ( where it enters the sea at Rosetta and at the D&mietta mouth also) is blocked by a deposit of silt brought down by the river itself.No doubt the Egyptians have good artillery at just those points on the canal, or on the Nile between Atfeh and Cairo, where most damage could be done the British troops.Ths foregoing refers to troops going from Alexandria.\u201cNow, as to troops comiug from Suez, there would be : \u201c1st.A laud routeover the old caravan traok from Suez to Cairo.\u201c2ud.A land route over the line of railway from Suez to Cairo.\u201c3rd.A water route by the Maritime Caual to Ismailia, then by the \u201ccaual d'eau douce\" from Ismailia to Zagazig, from which point I think there is now a \u201ccanal d\u2019eau douce\u201d to Cairo or the Nile.If not, then it would be over the railroad to Benha (where the railroad from'Alexandria join son), aud then, still over the railroad, from Benha to Cairo.\u201cThe old caravan track was, up to the opening of the Suez Canal, the route followed by the railway from Suez to Cairo, but on the opening of the Canal the rails were taken up and the present railway route\u2014far removed from the old one\u2014opened.A more desolate route than the caravan track could not be found on the glebe.Throughout the whole 60 or SO miles of its course, there is nothing but desert to be seen.Douglas Jerrold used to say, \u201cYou cannot starve in the desert be-jause of the sand which is there,\u201d but I question if a consumptive grasshopper could hud half a day\u2019s rations ou the whole route uamed.Neither is there a single drop of water to be had.When the railway was running on this route, you could not get half a wineglassful that had not come from Suez or C&iio.The water trains (».e., water conveyed in tanks on cars) took about 50 p«r cent of the expenditure of the railway.Still the road as a road would be a good one for troops.With the exception of lizards, chameleons and a few hyenas, they would meet no loçal life.The railway stations used to be numbered from 1 to 14, and the whole resident population at each station was the station master aud his family (if he had one).They were splendid places for thinking \"In addition to the foregoing, there is the route over the railway from Suez to Cairo, to which almost the samo remarks would apply as to the railway route from Alexandria to Cairo, with this exception, that the troops coming from Suez would be native (Indian) troops, or British, that had been some time in India.The effects of climate would not in this case have to be feared ; hut for British troops fresh from the United Kingdom, there would not be much good weather for march-iog before the middle of October.\u201cThe route over the maritime canal from Suez to Ismailia would, if not damaged before hand by the Egyptians, be the best of all ; hut the water routo on from Ismailia would present the same difficulties as the Canal from Alexandria to Atfeh.\u201cAlongside the maritime canal, from Suez to Ismailia, there runs a caual \u201cd'eau douce,\u201d aud the railway runs almost parallel to both from Suez to Neflshe, where it branches off into the interior to Zagazig.Benna, Cairo, Ac.\" THE MORK1NQ CHRONTCUE, TUESDAY, JULY IS istra Fire ! Fire ! \" JST 011023.France has, at length, determined to make virtue of a necessity.She has decided to assist England in maintaining the protectorate of the Suez Canal.England had made up her mind to do this alone, and had already assumed the virtual guardianship of the great thoroughfare, but if France assists, so much the better.It would, however, have been more to her credit, had she acted earlier in the fray.As long as England talked, she talked, but when the guns were sighted before Alexandria, the French fleet sailed away, and left the English to batter down the forts alone.Furl her

Government, the restoration of order.Nobody is allowed to leave the town after sunset.During tbe massacre the soldiers fired the bouse of a timber merchant.The maid servant escaped to tbe garden, where she remained surrounded by the fire, the soldiers laughing at her agony and firing at her, but purposely avoiding fatal injury, preferring to see her burn to death.Finally she rushed thiough the flames and though wounded by bayonet thrusts succeeded iu securing refuge in the ruins, where she was discovered by marines and banded over to tbe Americans.During an alarm on Saturday night 150 Bedouins at the Gubarri Gate fled before the attack of a midshipman and 12 sailors.General Stone rode on Sunday six miles in the direction of Arabi\u2019s camp but saw nothing of his army.A large

il.-sert ; also 1500 Arabs at Fort Guelini, six miles hence, ; throwing up earthworks.Three British, four French, two Italian meu-of-war aud one .Spanish war ships are in the harbor.The Governor is loyal to the Khedive, but the Egyptiau Colonel who commands 250 men is suspected of disloyalty.ÂLKXAKURIA, July 17\u2014There were several fresh lires last uight.Troop» from the ship \u201cTamar\u201d

to Egypt is ordered and all officers absent ou forlough have been ordered to rejoin their commands.Alexandria, July 17.\u2014It is stated Toulba Pacha, military commander of Alexandria, was personally engaged in the looting and arson.The Austrian Consul is the only foreign diplomat who has quit Alexandria.He has gone to Port Said.Durvisch Pacha states he has sent fifteen telegrams to Constantinople for troops which were all unanswered.A party of sailors aud members of the Khedive\u2019s body guard, previously referred to, ]>enetrated within 300 yards of Arabi\u2019s lines.They found all quiet.Reports of the proximity of large bodies of Bedouins are untrue.Lieut.Jackson, wounded * on the 12th in the attack on the forts, is dead.The first reports of the extent of the devastation here were exaggerated, although long lines of streets are still burning and a heavy smoke encloses the city.The universal hope is that Arabi will stand firm at Kafr El Dwar so that a decisive battle may occur.The Khedive last evening sent a horseman to demand the surrender of Fort Marabout, but the garrison had departed.The people in Egypt appear to be preparing for a great war.All strong men are leaving their families and the old men, children and women are moving toward the borders.The Arabs are flocking to the ranks of the fighters.Great numbers have joined Arabi\u2019s forces at Damietta.The forces of Arabi seem to be well disciplined and provided for fighting.The troops are regularly marshalled aud may be seen drilling frequently.Strong earthworks are being erected and great preparations are being made for a military movement of some kind.It is believed the movement will be offensive.It is stated a council of British officers decided the situation is more serious than ever before.London, July 17\u2014The Turkish Government is endeavoring to charter troopships ! and have offered as high as twenty shillings a ton.Ship-owners are very cautious.Cairo, July 17.\u2014One hundred and fifty Europeans, mostly Italians, with the Italian Consul and an escort of forty soldiers, left on Saturday.The German residents and the German Consul left ou Friday.Dutch parties arrived in safety at Ismailia.Anarchy prevails in the Provinces.It is reported fifty Europeans were massacred at Tan ta h.Alexandria, July 17\u2014Rogeteb Pasha, President of the Ministry, has written a letter to Admiral Seymour, stating that the preparations that Arabi Pasha is making are against tho will of the Khedive and the Gov-eminent, and that Arabi has been ordered to suspend them, that the Khedive has decided to dismiss him, but that the danger of a repetition in Cairo and elsewhere of the fatal disorders which occurred in Alexandria induced tho Khedive to temporarily delay the publication of his decision.The International Tribunal and the Post Office have been re-instated.Quo hotel has re-opened.Victuals are arriving from the country.Tho streets from the Custom House to the grand square have been cleared of ruius and made passable for carriages ; tho dangerous houses have been demolished.It is reported two British sentries were shot last uight by Arabs.Arabi\u2019s troops were eutreuchiug yesterday, but seemed to lack proper implements.A correspondent hears that Arabi\u2019s troops aie 16 miles from Port Said, and that there arc some troops near Suez.Intelligence haa been received from Cairo that the Prefect of Polie» declines to permit Arabi Pasha to enter the oity.Three Bedouin chiefs came in aud swore allegiance to tbe Khedive.Very few houses are now on fire.Refugees from Cairo report a holy war is being proclaimed aud, Europeans aro being massacred in Tantah, Minsurah and Zagazig, A consul has been killed at Zagazig.Alexandria, July 17\u2014Evening\u2014This morning tbe sailors drew up close to the gatliog guns and the marines were ordered to get ready for attack.Scouts had sent word that Arabi Pasha was coming.The English sailors communicated with the Americaus and asked them to get ready.Seamen at the Palace of Justice and American Consulate were prepared and having got ammunition ready awaited the sequel.They waited until nine o\u2019clock, when they heard the alarm was false.Plenty of mules have been lauded for tbe field batteries, which have also been lauded, so that the English force is ready to move at a moment's notice aud large num bers of people are returning ashore.The ironclads \u201cMinotaur,\u201d \u201cSultan\u201d aud \u201cTerneraire\u201d have arrived off Aboukir to pre vent Arabi Pacha cutting the dykes.Directly after the ships appeared the white flag was hoisted.One of the Khedive\u2019s body guards, who rode to Kafrel Dwar yesterday on a re connoisauce, galloped off and joined Arabi Pacha.Several Arabs were killed last night for incendiarism.Three of the Khedive\u2019s grooms were killed by the English guard at Has El Tin Palace by mistake.An Arab soldier was tied to a tree to-day in the square and shot before the Arabs aud Europeans Despite these examples pillaging continues.Later.\u2014Arabi Pasha\u2019s army is strongly posted.All the Bedouins lately hovering around the city have disappeared.Arabi has written a long letter in reply to the Khedive\u2019s demands, which the Khedive declares unsa tisfactory.Arabi says he did not intend to make war, but as the Powers are determined to force an attack he considers it better to fight at once.He expresses a willingness to come to Alexandria if the Khedive induces the English tieet and troops to withdraw.If the Khedive cannot do this, Arabi recom trends him to send a Minister to his camp to discuss the situation.Constantinople, July 17\u2014Lord Dufferin has had a very cordial interview with the Sultan, who appeared willing to send troops to Egypt, but stated that certain difficulties appeared in tbe conditions.It is believed the Sultau is on the w'hole in favor of the project of sending Turkish troops to Egypt, but is still undecided.The Sultan will give an audience to Mr.Wallace, United States Minister, to-morrow.Cairo, July 17\u2014The German Consul, with three hundred Germans and Austrians, pro ceeded safely on a special train placed at his disposal by the Egyptian authorities to Is-maila, whence tbe party went by tbe Suez Canal to Port Said.The Knglish and French mec-of-war in the canal have received orders to protect Austrian and German caravans.It is stated orders have been received from home enjoining tbe British to content them selves with maintaining order.Arabi Pasha has appointed Ali teima, the notorious Anglophobiat, to command the Suez Canal.The Khedive has found an officer williag to carry the decree for Arabi\u2019s dismissal to bis camp.Arabi has cut the telegraph which con nected him with the |>&lsce and by which the Ministry constantly communicated with him.British outposts stopped the Egyptiau officer bearing tbe Khedive\u2019s dismissal of Arabi, which baa therefore not reached him.It is believed Arabi would behead any officer bearing bis dismissal.port said, where the European Powers will probably land their troOjps if they resolve to protect the Suez Canal against possible destruction by the rebellious Egyptiau army, twenty-three years ago was merely a narrow strip of sand which had been selected as the starting point of the great canal between the Mediterranean and the Red Sea.M.De Lessens then predicted that some day it would rival Alexandria.As a proof of the increasing importance of Port Said, it may bo mentioned that land there, from being procurable in 1859 at a mere nominal value, is now worth $4 30 a square metre (a metro equals 39.37 English inches) Like Alexandria, tho water supply of Port .Said is a source of difficulty, as half the Suez Canal ithe part connecting Isniaila with Port Said) depended for its water supply on the 1 resit water canal which passed Ismaila, turned southward and ended at Suez.This supply was both precarious aud insufficient, aud if it wera interrupted would render Port Said uninhabitable, and would necessitate the abandonment of many stations on the canal.SUEZ Sresents no features of interest apart from its teks.especially a huge diy dock built 1 y the Egyptian Government, aud capable oi holding a large frigate.Whatever it is with its 6,000 or 8,000 inhabitants, it owes everything to the canal, through whoso operations it has been transformed from a filthy Arab fishing village into a busy town boasting already no small wealth and giving gieat pre* mice for tbe future.P.M.Market), West Jsddors.N.S., writes : I wish to infoi m you of the wonderful qualities of l>r.Thoms»\u2019 Kclectr o Oil.I had a horse so lame that he could scarcely walk ; the trouble was
