I Aired, although it is supposed, perhaps with good reason, that
• they contain a demand for a further instalment of the tri-
bute. Be this as it may, the Pacha yesterday negotiated a
!oan against his produce for 250,000 dollars, and the Nile
leaves again to-morrow with bills to this amount on ac-
count of the tribute. On her next return, it is said the
Nile will positively bring Said Pacha and his suite here.
The Egyptian news is rather uninteresting. The, e ale vague
reports of robberies having been committed in the Suez desert,
and of about SOO irregular cavalry baring been sent there
against the Bedouins, but I have not been able to ascertain the
truth of these rumours. Mr. 'Wattle, the English Consul at
Cairo, has been told that it will be necessary to provide _a guard
for the transit of the India mails. .
Address of her Britannic's Majesty's Consul-General,
Ceilonel Barnett, to his Highness Mehemet Ali, Pacha of
Egypt :
" Highness--Sent by her Britannic Majesty to Egypt as her
Consul-General, to protect the British residents in your
country, and watch over their interests, I hare pleasure
in believing that on every occasion I shall find his
Highness ready to listen to their well-grounded corn.
plaints, ant: to do them justice. His Highness must be
convinced, that it is as much the desire as it is the
interest of Great Britain to see Egypt peaceable and flourish.

nued on a fair and equitable basis, without exclusive favour*
being granted to any one, but that each may carry on his corn.
mercial pursuits in strict conformity with the hies of the em.
pies, and the treaties existing between the Sublime Porte kill
the Government of her Britannic Majesty."
The Pache't reply :
. Sir—lt has ever been the object of my particular Carl
and attention to guarantee the persons res:dent in Egypt, and
their interests, as well as those travelling through the country,
from all harm. I hive at least the satisfaction of observing that
public opinion does me justice in this respect, and I shall not
cease in my efforts to preserve it. The continuance of the
good understanding established between Great Britain
and the Sublime Porte, will be, as far as I am
concerned, the object of my solicitude. 1 observe
the advantages of liberty of commerce, consecrated by existing
treaties. I c:.nnot but admit that the nurneions testimonials,
attesting the good derived, are to me sufficient evidence. ' Im-
perious circurustaws alone have forced me to establish and ir ain-
tain monopolies. I could prove the necessity which has forced
me to adopt such a system, but this is neither the time nor
place to enter into details en the subject. I shall confine
myself to observing that the system under which a country
has for a long time been governed cannot be hastily changed,
without causing that country to experience the most alarming
shuck; and )ou will agree with me, I trust, that in such case
one must act cautiously, in order that, by pi ogressive Teenage-
ment, such a change may be effected. My only desire, my
only thought at present, is to provide for the amelioration of
the internal government of Egypt, and I am convinced that
the result (not far distant) of my effects will cause my acts to
be fully approved."

M. Cala: a;i, Russian Minister atithe Court of Athens, be-
sides paying visits to the Ministers, had on .Sunday last the
honour of an audit race of the Sultan, who received him with
distinction. Last week, he and his friends went through the
mosques. palaces, &c. On Sunday evening M. Titoff, the
Russian Charge d'Affaires, gave a soiree musicale in honour
of M. CataciA.

The•Capudan Paella arrived here on Friday morning last in
the Sultan's beautiful steam- yacht Messiri Bahri. He was in-
viied to the Imperial Palace, -and had an audience of the Sul-
tan, who showed his Excellency marked kindness. After the
sealamhk (Friday's visit of the Sultan to the Mosque, in state),
Tahir Paella repaired to the Sublime Porte and had a long in-
terview with the • Grand Vizier. We subsequently had many
reports concerning changes of the Ministry, but they were
merely the revival of all stories, "twice told tales."
Lady Ponsonby has been seriously indisposed, and having
been thrice bled, sl.e is still weak, though fast recovering.
This retains Lord Ponsonby here, or he might already have left
Constantinople.
