two members and upwards, representing

repeat what injustice is done the old coun-

there hsd ever been an order presented or call made

he has the order, why deny ii to Mr.. Steele. Look
at his certificate. And last of all, this Ansnias calls
in to his assistance Ss phira, to prove that he sold for
so much. The public will bear in mind that this
little fellow is the Clerk of Mr. Owsley, and from
the certificate which he has given, it will appear plain
that he did not mature the plan with any degree Of

On the I'd ult. Admiral Stopford wrote
to the Parha, informed him that as Napier
had no authority to enter into such Il conven.

the 9Th ult. he transmitted to the Pacha the
official authority from the British Govern

maintain Mehemet Ali in the Pachalic of
Egypt only, upon the conditions that in three
days after the communications made to him
by Capt. Fanshawe, he agreed to restore the
Turkish feet to the Sultan and evacuate
Syria. In reply, Mehemet Ali accepted the
terms proposed, though much hurt At the d.

The precise words of the treaty are, that
