EASTERN NEWS.

ram the Supplement to the Malta Times of the
28th of December.
" From Alexandria, Dec. 24.

" Vice-Admiral Walker Pacha was expected daily.
from Constantinople to take charge of the Turkish
fleet (but that will depend on whether the Sultan rein-
states Mehemet Ali in the Pachalic of Egypt.)
The Bedouin Arabs had became troublesome to
persons crossin, the desert ; the Pacha had sent 2,000
cavalry to protect them from insult, and said that if
they were not sufficient he would send 10,000 for that
purpose, being--determined to keep open, and facilitate
as much as possible, the passage of the India mails and
passengers. . _

The report which had prevailed, that Ibrahim
Paella had arrived at Gaza with his troops, was not
confirmed, the Hydra having brought an account that
'he was at Damascus with 70,000 men, and 30.000 wo-
men and children, whom he was clothing preparatory
to crossing the desert into Egypt. On the 14th inst. at
Zakle 5,000 Druses, consisting of men, women, and chil-
dren, approached the Egyptian army for the purpose of
ascertaining the disposition of the troops towards Ibra-
him Pasha ; an engagement ensued, when every one of
the Druses was put to death, includir.g twenty of thtir
chiefs who had surrendered. This account was told
Capt. Engtedue, of the Great Liverpool, by Mehemet
Ali himself.

" At Damascus Brehm had put to death many of
the most influential inhabitants. Some of his troops
Laving exhibited a dissatisfied feeling, he gave them
permission to leave, sending them into a large house
under which power had been placed, when they were all
blown up tv the number of four hundred. The Carys-
fort was ilying in the harbour of Alexandria. The
Hydra arrived there on the 17th, and left aga,. n on
the 22. d for Marmorice, for the purpose of obtaining
leave from Admiral Stopford to convey the Pacha's
despatches (which she took on board) to Ibrahim
racha, and to convey him to Alexandria, if he should
he near the Syrian coast. Too Pacha's steamer Nile,
with provisions on board, was ready to proceed to that
coast to bring away some of troops, should they be there.

" 'rhe Great Liverpool steamer arrived off the har-
bour last night, and came into the port this morning,
having left Alexandria the 24th inst. She brings a
mail from India, despafthed from Bombay the Ist inst.
by the Cleopatra steamer, which arrived at Suez on
the 18th.

The Acheron steamer will proceed to-day to Mar-
seines with that yivct of the India mail to go by that
route, and the Great Liverpool will leave to-morrow
morning for (=.;oraltar and England."
