defeat of. the Turkish li:orces.in Egypt. The partial
sueeesses of the PAC ft A of CA.' Ito over the Beys, seem
'to have inspired , hitb with too great a contempt of
hit opponents,lor he.suffered them to attack, him in
the front and rear at the same time ; the consequence
of which was, that his Army was totally routed ; he
was, pursued for several clays by the viaorious Ma.

THE PORTE has received the disagreeable intel.
ligence, that its Army in Egypt has been entirely
'defeated by the Beys„,„ The accounts from Egypt
which have ,been sent' to the PORTE, and the Eng-
lish Ambassador Lord E4G IN arc, of the. date
vembcr 2, and are to the following purport
" The Egyptian Beys were.surrounded by the
Turkish_ Army, and made repeated attacks on it,
but were always repulsed. •
" At length, OMAR. Bel, in the beginning of
Oaober, by addrea,and courage contrived to evade
the Attention of the PACHA of. Cairo, and led ills
Troops off through his lines. The Pacha conildere
ed him as not very dangerous, and did not greatly
notice his movements.

" OMAR BEY, in the mean• time, having condi-
ed considerable reinforcements, approached the place
of ;idiot), and the other Beys, who ware at iiiainted
with_ his, designs, made a furious attack on- the
Turks, while OMAR. PRY fell upon them in the
rae. The Army of
.the Paclia being thus placed
betWeeri fife's) was totally defeated, and almoit•
entirely cut
.tO pieces. ,The Beys following ,their
succeo,., pursued and massacred the Turks for. fe.
verardays together ; and scarcely any would have
•
escaped, had not the Commander of the English
-and Turkish .Troops in Alexandria, detached‘a pm.;
of. the Garrison to rally the Fugitives, -ansl.4,kheek
the further progress of -the Beys;
" The PA CHA of Cairo is -now endeavouring to
colic& the remainder of his defeated Troops,. and
to procure reinforcements ; but the. .13cys arc now
greatly superior to hiM. in fOrce, and completely
masters of the plain Countrytif Egypt." - ' - ,
