EGYPT.
Col. Lackett's Lecture.

The rooms of the Young Mems Christian
Association were filed to overfowing last
night, by an audience drawh from the
wealth, intelligence and refinement ofathe
city, to hear Col Lockett's lecture on the
Egyptian War.
The Colonel opened his lecture by stating
that he had derived his information largely
from personal observation while ne was
''carpet-bagging" in Egypt several years
ago. He found many other Europeans
also ''carpet-bagging" in Egypt at the same
time.
He described the operations Of
the former Khedive, Ismail, IN
doing for Egypt what Solomon
did for Judea, making it beautiful, and hll-
ing it with palaces, while the people were
oppressed with burdens unbearable.
Ismail used all the money he could make,
beg and borrow, and finally became bank
rupt. Then Tewfk was put in his place,
the large army was reduced in numbers,
the Europeans were paid, the natives left
unpaid, and system of petty tyranny
awoke animosities among the people.
Arab Pasha took advantage of this state
of affairs, and espoused the cause of the
natives as against the ''carpet -baggers, ]"
and so gradually rose until he overstepped
the Khediye himself, both in popularity and
power.
Egypt for the Egyptians and Arab
Pacha for our chief !" became the rally-cry
of patriotism. England and France inter-
fered and demanded Arabi's degradation.
The people rallied around Arabi-and war
was the result.
England espoused Tewfk's cause. 1t was
the old story of invincibility against pusil-
lanimity. Arab went down. and now
England is master of Egypt.
And Colonel Lockett predicts that
England will not lose her hold upon
that land; but will remain and finally
make it tributary.
He described the incredible helplessness
of the Egyptian soldiers in their war with
the Abyssinians. He says they were cut
down like blind helpless towards, making
no resistance, though armed and equipped
with choicest weapons.
Arab Pacha was described as much re-
sembling Policeman Nose Smith In colo,
and general appearance-but probably not
possessed of either as much intelligence Oh
as much ability, as Nose.
The lecture was very interesting; 6
model in length; quite instructive; wei
delivered, and, altogether well worthy Of
the audience-which we deem high com
pliment.
