VALUABLE ADJUNCTs.
PORT SAID, Aug. A.-Morice Bey, Zrab
Bey and other Egyptian officers who left for
the front yesterday in company with Lord
Charles Beresford will be of immense service
to the English staff when the inevitable COL
lapse of Arab Pasha's power begins, as they
can discriminate between real traitors aud
those merely forced into the rebellion.
Pasha's generals know exactly our move
ments we are entirely ignorant of theirs. The
absence OF balloons is much felt here. There
is no place where they would be more useful.
