EGYPT,

The commercial and political world, was
startled a few days ago, by the announce
ment that England had bought frsm the
khedive, his entire interest in the stock
of the Suez Canal. Murmurs have come
across the ocean that she intended taking
Egypt as counterpoise to the occupation
of Constantinople by Russia, if such ar
act was to oc:ur in the drama, known as
the Eastern Question. There are few
countries, so familiar to our people, as
Egypt. Genesis tells the story of many
manifestations Of Gods power in that land;
Of Joseph's trials and triumphs. The
suflerinss of the Hebrew people,
the preservation, and mission of Moses.
The departure of Israel, the disaster of
the Red Sea; stories craven upon the in
FAINT minds eff every Christian and Hebrew
child. To the Christian it is peculiarly
interesting country, it was into Egypt that
the Holy family fled from'the murdereus
wrath of Herod. Under the shade of il
stately palms the Blessed Virgin and the
infant Saviour reposed, as the monday
Sun shimmered upon the hot sands of the
Delta. In the unannelled past, the
Pyramids arose, and yet stand, as imper-
ishable mementoes of power. Withal for
nearly two thousand years, Egypt has
been a subject land. The Greek, the Ro-
man, the Arab, the Turk, in turn have
ruled and robbed the valley of the Nile,
lording it over the descendants of the
Pyramid builders.
A few months ago, by frman Of the
Sultan, Egy pit assumed position of indie
rendence, although still contributor to
the expenses of the Ottoman Court. The
grandfather of the present Khedive the
famous Mahemet Ali, laid the foundation
of the present kingdom. Both he and his
son, lbraham Pacha enlarged their inter-
course with Christian peoples. France
until her late misfortune dominating in the
councils of Egypt. Alone Of all Mahom-
medan States, Egypt has kind of repre-.
sentative government. The Copts or
native Christians have been relieved of
many exactions, and bells Of Christian
call men to prayer after being
dumb and voiceless for twelve centuries.
With the quicking power Of freedom,
Egypt has been impelled rapidly in her
forward march.
In the domain Of commerce, agriculture
and manufacture much has been done.
Alexandria and Cairo are large, bustling,
and important cities, the latter with pop-
ulation of 100000. The former about l00,-
600. Silk, leather, glass, carpets, weapons
and sal-amsniacare largely manufactured in
the Nile valley. Schools under European
teachers are being opened, the customs
which govern the people have been codi-
fed into laws. The army has been armed
with the most improved weapons, and Or
ganized and drilled by some of the best

The Khedive short time age, made {
tour Of Europe, and was received kindly
at most Of the courts. This journey wal
evidently intended to feel the pulse Of th'
continental potentates, as to separate Egyp
tian nationality. The Khedive was AM
bilious. He had meditated a separation
from Turkey, break with the Sultan, {
contest with his Imperial master. He has
measured the power Of Turkey, the re-
sources Of Egypt. None Of these matters
had escaped the attention of the Khedive
when contemplating the possibility Of an
Empire beneath the shadows of the Pyra-
mids. The construction of the Suez Ca
nal, and the duty imposed upon the great
commercial nations of the world of keep
ing that channel open to the ships Of all
countries, also induced the Egyptian ruler
to believe that Tsrkey would be restrained
if she attempted to crush out all national
ity in the land through which that great
Improvement runs.
The Snltan protested against the growth
and expansion of the naval and military
power Of Egypt. Iron-clads and riaed
cannon, were seemingly inconsistent with
the subordinate position of Khedive. He
said "God was great, Mohammed was his
Prophet, and the Sultan was the supreme
ruler of the universe" but halted not in
his military preparations.
Thirty years ago, Egypt defed the power
of Turkey, invaded Syria and threatened
to overthrow the Ottoman Empire but
England, Russia, Austria, and Prussia,

oarded, and the Egyptians driven back to
Egypt. Since then Egyptian energy and
,mbition have taken another and wiser
direction.

ne military column Of the Khedive is

ave yet been struck, but it is the lull
ending the storm. An Egyptian force is

FoRFEITrRE FOR rsrRY.-The Rn

FORFEITURE FOR UsURY-The Buffalo
Commercial Advertiser of October ~ says.
The decision in the Supreme Court Of the
United states in the case OF the Farmers
and Mechanics National Bank of Buffalo
against Peter c. bearing has an important
bearing relative 10 the usury laws of this
state and in the United States. The old stat
uteS OF this state provide that corporations
or persons charging more than legal interest
shall be liable TO forfeit the principal and in
terest OF the sum in question, and the Court
CT Appeals so held in this case. The ma
tional banking law, however, says that such
person shall forfeit the interest in excess
OF the legal rate only, aud as the Farmers
and Mechanics bank was doing business
under this law it was able to carry this case
10 the United States court and obtain q re-
yersal OF the state courts decision. This
does not, however, give any advantage To the
national banks over the state banks in this
state. By special act passed by the legisla-
ture OF New York April O. 1875, fchap. I63 J
the New York state banks are placed on an
equality with national banks in regard TO
me question OF usury. II the state banks
take more than seven per cent. the forfeiture
Will DE The same as with national banks
The decision OF the United States Supreme
Court applies, therefore, To the state as well
the national banks"
