ALEXANDRIA, Aug. 21.—His Highness Said
Pasha, the Viceroy, who has been moving from
place to place between Cairo and Damietta, re-
turned to Alexandria yesterday, on the arrival of
an envoy from Constantinople with special de-
spatches for him. It is said that Said Pasha contem-
plates a visit to Constantinople. This is not be-
lieved ; but El Hamee Pasha, son of the late Abbas
•Pasha, is to proceed thither shortly, to be married
to the Sultan's daughter, Sultana Munireb, to
whom he was betrothed in 1854.

The river Nile is rising rapidly, and its waters
are beginning to cover the country ; last year's
crops are being brought down to Alexandria in
large quantities for shipment, while the prospects
for next year's harvest are very encouraging. On
the 11th the Pasha attended in State at the cere-
mony of the cutting of the canal which leads from
the Nile into and through the town of Cairo, and
which is generally done when the river has attained
the 16th cubit of the Nilometer. Much import-
ance is attached to this ceremony, as it is taken as
a proof that the river has risen sufficiently to in-
sure average crops, and there is an old law that
the land-tax cannot be exacted unless the Nile
rises to the height of 16 cubits of the Nilometer.
The Pasha's steamer Faid Gehaad, after con-
veying Redschid Pasha to Constantinople, brought
Lack to Alexandria about 2,300 nen who formed a
portion of the Egyptian army which took part in
the war with Russia. All those troops have landed
with the Crimean medal, of which they are very
proud, and when they left Constantinople they re-
ceived the pay due to them up to the day of embar-
kation, so that they have returned to their homes
comparatively rich. The remainder of the Egyp-
tian troops—about 16,000 men—are shortly ex-
pected from Constantinople. Said Pasha gives
them all a leave of two months, after which there
will be an inspection, when some will he finally
discharged, and the strong and healthy will be en-
rolled in new regiments.
The fall in the prices of corn in England has had
the effect of paralysing trade here, and just now
nothing is doing. The harbour is full of vessels,
most of which barely find employment, as holders
do not like to effect shipments with the present
prospects. Prices of wheat are nominally kept up,
but they must fall in a few days. Freights are
very dull, at 53. per quarter.
Our exchanges keep up at 1001 piastres per £
sterling.

The—surveying steam-sloop Tartarus, Captain
Maunsell, is to return to Pelusium on the 23d, and
will remain there about a month to complete the
survey of that coast. On corning back to Alexan-
dria Captain Maunsell is to make a survey and
chart of the port of Alexandria.

A box containing 4,0001. worth of India postage
stamps, lost last October by the transit adminis-
tration, and found in May by an Englishman em-
ployed on the works of the electric telegraph, has,
after much conversation and correspondence with
regard to the responsibility of receiving and claim-
ing the box, been given up to the agent of the East
India Company, and will be sent back to England.

" The Emperor and Empress and their suites,"
says the Messager de Bayonne, " took another
excursion at sea on Tuesday in the boats of the
Newton and Pelican. On landing, their Majesties
entered their carriage on the Place de I'Eglise, and
followed by the persons of their suite in other car-
riages took a drive on the road leading to Gramont
and towards Spain. The Empress is in excellent
health and bathes in the sea every morning. M.
Amilibia, the Governor of Guiriuscoa, has been re-
ceived at the Villa Eugenie, having come, as well
as the Captain-General of Navarre, to offer the
congratulations of Quen Isabella. On Wed-
nesday their Majesties visited the establishment
of the Refuge of the Abbe Cestac. The Prince
Imperial is in excellent health. He is every day
carried out into the Park of Gramont, where he
can breathe in the shade the invigorating sea-
breeze. Marshal Serrano, the now Spanish am-
bassador at the court of the Tuileries, has arrived
at Bayonne, and has been received by the Empe-
ror. The marshal was accompanied. by Mine. Ser-
rano ; by an officer of artillery, his aide-do-camp,
who served with distinction as a volunteer with
the army in the Crimea ; and by M. Potestad, an
attache to the embassy."
The Moniteur says :—" The evacuation of the
army of the East is completely terminated. The
vessel on board, of which our last soldiers embarked
left the Bosphorus on the 16th. Rear-Admiral
Pellion, the superior officer of the navy at Con-
stantinople, quitted the port on the 12th, leaving
for a few days longer in the Bosphorus the Belle
Poule and Orenoque frigates in order to definitively
settlo some administrative details."

The Moniteur publishes a decree, founded on a
report from the Minister of War, modifying pre-
aecrees rt. olio ..-,miracrino• of colonisation in
' Algeria, and ordering that untetne year iar,o vat,
State shall purchase on its account the cotton
grown by planters in Algeria at a price to be fixed

HOUSE OF COMMONS OFFICES BILL.

On the motion to proceed with the orders of the day, the

the Speaker should have a voice in the appointments, read a
second time and ordered to be committed.

Sir J. SHELLEY said his attention had been called, by
some of his constituents, to the circumstance of the Chief
Commissioner of Police having signed the orders for keeping
regulation and order in the parks, on occasion of the late dis-
turbances. He thought that such orders should have been
signed, not by that official, but by the Secretary of State ;or
the Home Department, and that the Chief Commissioner
should not act as if he was a minister of police.

Sir J. SHELLEY said his attention had been called, by
some of hil constituents, to the circumstance of the Chief
Commissioner of Police having signed the orders for keeping

CORRUPT PRACTICES AT ELECTIONS.

Mr. H. BERKELEY said he wished to ask, seeing
that the Corrupt Practices Prevention Act expires this
session, and that a strong and general opinion prevails
As to its inefficiency, whether it was the intention of
her Majesty's Government to bring in a bill to renew
that act, or to submit its operation to the inquiry of a
select committee ?

Lord PALMERSTON said it bad not been deter-
mined by the Government whether they should bring in
a bill to continue the act or'refer the subject to a select
committee. When it had been determinei what course
should be pursued the boast: would be informed on the
subject.

THE CRIMEAN CLUB AGAINST THE REST
OF THE ARMY.
The above match and musical fete, which was con-
tinued at Lord's Ground yesterday, attracted a large
concourse of spectators, the bands of the 2d Life Guards
and the Royal Horse Guards being present, enlivening
the scene with some splendid music. On account of the
great score made by the Army in their first innings, and
being so many ahead of the Crimeans, the latter followed
their inningQ, and although they made a goodly score of
131, they left but 28 for their opponents to get to win.
On the Army taking their second innings much excite-
ment prevailed ; for, although the number to be ob-
tained was but small, still the wickets fell rapidly, as
thus—one for 11, two for 13, three for 13, four for 19,
five for 19, kix for 26, and the other two were eventually
got, but it ended a closer match than was anticipated.
The score stood as follows at the close.:—The Army,

THE ACCIDENT AT GOODWOOD.

Our reporter visited the Chichester Infirmary yester-
day, for the purpose of personally making inquiries into
the state of the injured jockeys. Mr. illiott, the senior
surgeon, gave him a *lost satisfactory account. Although
Bartholomew still lies in a precarious condition, yet he
is gradually and surely improving. He was visited by
his wife on Monday, but did not seem to recognise her.
Little Mundy, who received a frightful comminuted
fracture of the thigh, is progressing most favourably.
Ashman, Salter, and Hearnden have left the infirmary.
The wants of the sufferers are studiously consulted by
Mr. Holman, the house surgeon, and Mr. Elliott.

TEE LATE DOUBLE MURDER AND
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.

eINTZTIBURY, Tuesday Evening.—Dadea Bedanius,
the marderer of Caroline and Maria Back, lies in a very
precarious state in the hospital, at Canterbury. He has
inflicted three wounds on himself, one of them having
extended, it is believed, to the left lung. The incisions
are about six inches in depth, but not necessarily mortal.
Bedanius apneare to be a man somewhat above the com-
mon level of his countrymen ; he is a Servian, and comes
from Belerade. He speaks very gond German (the Aus-
trian dialect), and can also converse in Italian, having
served in the Austrian army. His countenance is rather
mild and intelligent. Dr. Rhea, a linguist at St. Au.
gastine's College, has been to see him, but he does
not appear inclined to say much at present in refer-
ence to the crime he has committed. He merely alludes
to it in general terms, aed states that "he did it out of
love." During the night, when he was quite composed
and sensible, one of the nurses in attendance asked how
he could have done it? Bedanius merely replied that he
stabbed her, and she was dead in a minute. When asked
by Dr. Rhost it he wished to make any voluntary state-
ment, or was desirous of communicating with his friends,
he replied, " Not at present ; I am too weak to speak
yet." About 11 o'clock on Monday evening it was ex-
pected that he was near his death and upon being asked
if he should like to see the priest, Bedanius replied in the
affirmative. The Rev. Mr. Siddens, the Roman Catholic
priest of the district, was therefore sent for. Upon the
arrival of the rev. gentleman the usual questions were
put to the sufferer, and subsequently the rites of the
Roman Catholic Church were administered to him. At
a later period, however, be asked for his knife, as hf.
wished to finish himself. He is watched by a const ,ble,
in case he should make any further attempt upon his
life. He has not shown any kind of delirium.
