EGYPT.

ALEXANDRIA, April 11.—The 10th Hussars
arrived at Alexandria on the 7th, in 12 days'
march from Cairo, and took up their quarters in
barracks expressly prepared for them near the
Pasha's palace at Ras-el-teen. The officers and
men, bearded and mustachiod, and bronzed by the
climate of India and their march through Egypt,
and their horses—fine wiry animals from the Cape
and the Persian Gulf—all seem thoroughly up to a
campaign and adapted to encounter the hardships
of the Crimea.

On the day after the arrival of the Hussars,
Easter Sunday, the Bth, seven officers, 160 mtn,
' and 200 horses were shipped on board of the
steamer Etna, which left on the 9th for the
Crimea. The head-quarters of the regiment, 11
officers, 349 men, and 380 horses, were put on board
the Himalaya, which sailed for the Crimea yester-
day, and the remainder of the regiment, about 190
men and horses, are embarking to-day on board of
the steamer Trent, which will eave to-morrow for
Constantinople. Thus the entire regiment will he
under Lord Raglan's immediate orders in the Cri-
mea by the 17th inst.
The 12th Lancers are to leave Cairo on the 14th,
to be here about the 26th, when they will embark
without delay on boat d of steamers, expected about
that time, to take them to the Crimea.
The Viceroy Said Pasha returned to Alexandria
this morning from his visit to. the Tanta!' Fair.
The Egyptian steamer Faid Gelmad left on the

duce falling.
