MISCELLANEOUS.

ADMIRAL SEYMOUR has issued man.
ifesto saying that he has undertaken, with
the consent of the Egyptian Government,
the restoration of order in Alexandria. A
number OF Arabi's soldiers were captured
by marines and handed over to the Khedve
who ordered them shot by loyal troops.
English sailors flogged ten Arabs who were
guilty of arson, pillage, ETC., and four
men were publicly shot for murder, and one
as a spy. The grain market has reopened,
but hundreds Of people are starving and
houseless. Arab Pasha is at Kafridwar,
where he has four infantry regiments, l., 500
irregular troops, one cavalry regiment, thir-
ty-six Krupp guns, and twelve mitrailleuses.
He has been summoned to Alexandria by
the Khedive, who will treat him as a rebel
should he refuse to obey. Arabi says he did
not intend to make war, but as the powers
are determined to force an attack he con-
siders it better to fight at once. He ex-
presses willingness TO return AleXan-
drla if the Khedive will induce the English
fleet and troops to withdraw. II the Khe-
dive can not do this Arab recommends him
to send a minister to his camp and discuss
the situation. A C0nstautinople dispatch
states that Count Cortii is strongly opposed
to the AngIo-French control system In
Egypt. Onon, representative Of the Car,
is by no means kindly disposed toward the
law of Egyptian liquidation which was es-
tabished under the auspices of Sir Rivers
Wilson. Baron Herschfeld, German rep
resentative, is known TO favor the unre-
stricted military Intervention OF Turkey;
this IS quite opposed to the ideas OF the
Marquis de NoaiIles, and is against the ira
ditional policy of France.
A BUST of Garfield, from the photo
graph used on the fYe-cent postage stamp,
has been completed by Preston Powers, Of
Florence, Italy, and is pronounced by the
widow and mother OF the President beyond
criticism.
THE French Government has signi-
fed It's intention 10 send troops to Egypt to
! assist in the protection of the Seuz Canal
and has ordered transports to be placed in
readiness for service.
AT AIillville, Mo, two years AGO, q
young physician named Keys killed Dr.
Roberts, an old and popular practitioner.
Keys got off on plea OF insanity and was
sent to an asylum. A few days ago he was
pronounced sane and set free. Fate led
him back to the scene OF the tragedy, where
he was shot three times by Charles Roberts,
a son Of his victim. Public sympathy is
with the ayenger.
THE famous James suit of r. Lang
don and others against the Vermont & Can
ada Railroad, asking for a foreclosure on
