FATHER POINT, G. E. Aug. 15.-Steanl-
ship North American from Liverpool, a,
1880 .. m. of the 4th, via Londonderry,
Just passed.
The news by the North American are
almost a blank. The United States war
steamer, Niagara, arrived at Liverpool on
the Sd, she received salute.
News from the British war steamer,
Majesty, the London Times publishes from
Richmond Of June 9th. the writer ex-
presses his belief that Grant knew full well
that neither Petersburg nor Richmond
make no more onslaughts on the Confed-
crate breastworks, but quietly assume the
defensive.
He says it is question Of subsistence,
but Richmond can never be starved out
until thel two railroads from the south, as
well % the James river canal and the rail-
roads from the north can be utterly ami
able to do. He admits that Grants ope-
rations may occasionally cause the con-
Ffederates 70 be placed on half rations, but
this wi1l not effect the result.
z The Alexandra correspondent Of the
zypses gives particulars OF . quarrel b.
tween the American consul and the Egyp-
tian government. An American in erect
in9 I steam engine partially destroyed an
aqleduct for supplying the town with va
The Consul being applied to by the au-
thorities, stopped the works, but subse-
quently permitted them to proceed. The
Government forcibly interfered and elected
the workmen. The Consul hereupon de-
manded satisfaction for the insult to the
American dag. He refneed to accede "a
\ proposal that each party should send an
engineer to inspect the alleged damage,
agreeing to abide their just decision, and
threatened to strike his colors unless salts
faction was given in "a hours. According.
~, after that time elapsed, the flag was
hauled down, and dispatch from the gov
eminent, which arrived almost imme.
Cliately afterward, was returned unopened.
