SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
PORTSMOUTH (Eng.), July IS. The
troop ship Euphrates is ordered to be in
readiness within twelve hours. She will
take 1900 troops to Egypt.
ALEXANDRIA, July 19.-Ramleh is not
to be occupied. Five hundred marines
will occupy seven different c%enters, guard
ing the whole town. The native police are
organizing to aid the military. Detectives
are searching for suspicious persons.
ALEXANDRIA, July 1S.-Last night was
quiet. The lines are now strongly guarded,
the fires nearly all sxtinguished, and the
police arrangements thoroughly effective.
You correspondent has opened commune
cation with the camp of Arab Pasha,
which his informant says consists of a
little over 5000 men, who are intensely
d~iscontented and surrounded with starry
ing women and children. Recruits of the
lowest class are still being .enticed by
Arab with promises of unlimited plumber,
and his force is held together by the asser-
ton that the English will kill all return
ing to the city. Arab and Toulba Pashas
have utterly lost prestige by their gross
cowardice daring the bombardment. The
artiilerymen were kept at their guns on
the 18th instant by the infantry posted
under cover. The Khedive states that 205
Europeans have been killed at Katilredwar.
There was an attempt last evening to set
fire to the st. Mark buildings, the head
quarters of Americans in Alexandria.
LONDON, July 1S.-The numerous exc.
cutions at Alexandria excite some comment
among the Liberal party in the press and
Parliament.
another crisis is approaching. The weather
threatens the utter destruction Of what
promised to be the finest harvest ever
reaped in Ireland. Heavy and almost in
cessant rains have laid low many flourish
ing fields. The potatoes have suffered
severely. If the weather improves there
will still be hope of recovery.
MONTREAL, July l6.--Last night the
abduction of the two-year-old child of Mr..
Melvin, a wealthy gentleman of this city,
was boldly carried out. A note on the
pillow demanded $50, 600 ransom, and
threatened to murder the child if refused.
PARIS, July lS.--A correspondent of the
Times says the idea of the renewal of close
cooperation Of France with England has
now forced itself upon the French Gov
eminent. The Cabinet Council adopted a
resolution to this effect. The resolution
is conditional on three things, namely
Turkeys reply to the identical note of
the Powers inviting the Porte to send
troops to Egypt; the decision of the con-
ference, and the sanction of Parliament.
Subject to these conditions the two Gov
ernments are now entirely agreed in re-
gard to the terms upon which their forces
Will undertake to restore order in Egypt.
LONDON, July 18.-The leading editorial
in the Morning Post says: The behavior
of the American Admiral and his men at
Alexandria is beyond all praise. Amid
the diplomatic protest Of European con-
certs and conferences, and naval demon
