Accounts from Alexandria OF the 9th ut state that
Mehemet Ali was indefatg gable in organizing his
means of defence. The principal points on the coasts
Of both seas had been fortified and well garrisoned;
provisions Of all desc pti stored in the
senals and magaxRes regular troops in ria;
"a 600 irregulars ordered to advance on Alexandria

he was a simple officer. He also liked TO con.
verse with them apparently with delight on trade,
