AFFAIRS OFfCV'PT.

The Porte, ever since the commenmr_Nit of the
War, had secretly resolved to change the o.nv.crn-
. them of the Beys in Egypt; and in order to co:iceal
this design, the whole apparent- condua,- of.the
GRAND VI Z I It and theCAFITAN PACH A was calcu,
lated to persuade, them that their re...establishment
was at hand. After the evacuation of Egypt, seven
of the Beys were invited to repair to Alexandria,
there to concert a plan for their re-establishment.
--They used ail diligence to comply with this request.
On their arrival, they were received with every
-mark of distinAiQp ; tPUI the CAI! TAI PAC 11ASaiii
intimated to them, that it was the will of the Porte'
that they should for ever renounce the Dominion of
Egypt. ,He declared to them, .at the 'same time,
that they should he. carried. to Constantinop/e,, and
assured them, mit only that their liveS we're se_
'cure from all. danger, 'but also, that their rank in
the Empire of the Ottoman Porte should not be
less splendid, since it was the intention of the Porte
to 'preserve entire, to them their own Possessions,
or equivalents,' and likewiie to establish them in
honourable post,s-.

The CAPITAN PAutA had made the same assur-
ances to Gen. HuTcHiNsos, ,

The GRAND VIZIR haviUg been informed, by
an express from the Ottoman Admiral, ,that the
latter had secured seven of the Beys, ordered, on
his part, such as were in his power to be arrested.
His measures on this occasion were so well taken,
that in less than one hour, these ancient SOvereigns.
of Egypt were in his power.- Two of them, MEHE.
NIET...ELVY BEY and Ali O,UD•IAH BEY, found means'
to ,escape. The •first had been sent to Upper"
Egypt to coiled the Vributes. His re-call, ~under
some pretext, excited in him some suspicions, .and
instead of returning to Cairo, he fled to the'interior
of the country. . An-out:11ml, who was encamped
in the neighbourhood
,of Dgize; informed of the
disgrace of his colleagues, had sought fur safety in
flight, but whither is unknown. " Several other
Beys had attempted to escape, but the Detachments
posted at certain distances, had intercepted them.
Other DetachMents were sent in pursuit of. the
Mamelukes of the 'fugitive Beys; and every day
LI-ought in some of them. Several perished while.
snaking resistance. The GRAND VI ZIR had held
the same language :to :the Beys' as the cAPITAN
iriAcHA. had done. This conduft had produced the
most vigorous remonstrances on the part of General
HUTCH I N3O, and a=new circumstance induced him
to take a still greater interest ii the cause of the
Beys.
The CAP I TAN PAPHII had•persuaded those whom
he- had in his power, -to go on board one of .his
Frigates. Different b6ats were. employed to con-
vey them thither When -doting the passage,: the
Beys ,beg; a to repent of their too great confidence,
and to fear violence might be offered -them when
once they were got on -board tile Frigate. On this
account they began to request of the Officers who
condueted them, that they might be re-landed: The
:Meets, however, alledgino- the orders of the Ad-
mirals refused to comply withb their request upon
which the Beys drew their swords to enforce their .
deMand. A fray.ensued; in which foUr Beys were
killed and three wounded. Several of the_ boots
crews shared the same fate.

On receiving accoputs of.•this transaaion, Gen.,
liorcni'xsotz had odered troops to be got un-,
der arms,' addressed the Most pointed reproaches to.
the'GRAND ,Vi zIR and the CAP ITAN PA.eirA, and
had demanded of the latter-, with menaces, to. de-
liver up to him the three wounded 13eys. • • -
• The Ottoman Admiral, by attributing the mis-
fortune which hid befallen the Beys solely to their,
own ill-founded stispicions, had justified :the mea.:
sures taken to secure . their persons at the.saMe
time fortifying hhnself by the 'orders whiCh the
Porte had sent him, and the GRAND Viztr, after'
havingreeeived assurances that the Court of London.
had no intention of interfering with-it resolutions
on this subjed, and- that the intention 'of this
Court in sending the Troops to Egpyt, hadl3een
solely to assist in re-takiug that Province, leaving
it' in 'the option of the,-,Porte to establish there
Ivhatever form of c-overnment ji Cound most. con-
venient.

Subsequent to these transaetions, news have been
received that the GRAND VIZIR, having assembled
the Beys who were in his power, and also prevailed
on MEHEMET:ELFY-BEY to return to Cairo, .had
succeeded in convincing them of the necessity they
lay under of submitting to the' will of the Porte;
and he renewed to them the same promises, and the
same assurances, with regard to the security of their
lives) properties, and high rank in the Ottoman
Empire: and to give a snore sacred and a more, im-
posing suaion to his word, he had sworn'to its
otiservance on the Coran, which he ordered to be
produced, in order to give the greater solemnity to
that 'aet.

These proceedings of the GRAND Vrzitt had
produced the'best effeAs ; the Beys had consented
to give. up their claims on Egypt, and to repair to
Constantinople ; they had even stated their Submii-
sion in an Address tO the GRAND SIGNOR; which
they had signed, and which they had. sent to, Con-
stantinople by one of their Officers. Nay farther,
-they announced, by letter, to Gen. HUTCHINsori,
their voluntary submission to the will of the Porte.
The Porte intends to establish in Egypt, the system
of the PAcHAs,,,on the same footing as in Europe.
That province will be divided into four parts, each
under, tfle government of a PAC HA.
