EGYPT.

ALrXANDEIA, AuousT 7.—Her MAJESTY'S steamer
Growler returned to Constantinople last week
with dispatches from our Consul-General in reply
to those of Sir STRATFOED CANDLING relative to the
enforcement of the Tanzirnat on Egypt by the SUB-
LIME PORTE.

The Viceroy, ABBAS PASHA, seems willing to sub-
mit to the SULTAN, with the reservation, however, of
some clauses vitally affecting his authority, and it is
now to be hoped that the SULTAN will put an end
to those vexations proceedings, which are plainly in-
tended to diminish the power and importance of this
country.
Mr. 13oBrnwicx, the engineer, sent out by Mr.
R. STErHENSON to arrange with the VICEROY some
preliminary matters regarding the railway between
Alexandria and Cairo, returns to England by the pre-
sent opportunity, having settled all things to his en-
tire , satisfaction, and having even received the first
instalment of the sum which is to be paid to Mr.
STEPHENSON.

The Sublime Porte bad been endeavouring to
raise difficulties with regard to the construction of
the railway, but Annas PASHA has shown firmness
on this point, and it is now confidently expected
that the works will be commenced by next October.
During the course of the ensuing winter the Go-
vernment has determined upon running steamers re-
gularly every fortnight from Cairo up the Nile as far
as the Cataracts, making stoppages at all places of
interest on the way. This will be a very great ac-
commodation to travellers visiting Egypt and a great
saving of time and expense.
Several detachments of Albanian troops have ar-
rived hero from Constantinople on their way to Id.ecca,
where the population has given some trouble to the
SUBLIME POSTE and shown symptoms of rebellion.

Nile has risen considerably ; the locks of the
canal at Atfeh and Cairo have been opened, and the
new crops are coming down in abundance. Ex-
change on London has risen to 100 piastres per 11.
sterling.

Mr. Edward Lawes is appointed Chairman of the
Commissionersof sewers, under the late Act for renewing the
CoriLIIIEZIO/1 for another year.
