The scene of the military operations now about to
begin from smalla Is none other than the land of
Goshen. The very names sent over the wires may
be found in Alurrays guide-book and tho Book Of
Numbers Ramses the outpost of the Egyptians,
is situated twelve miles from lsmaia. II is probably
the ancient Raamses mentioned in Exodus l., IL {:
"Thcrefore they did set over them taskmasters TO
a0lict them with their burdens. And they built for
Pharaoh treasure cities. Pithom and Raamses." The
name also occurs in numbers xXxi, 3. one of the
camping places of the Israclites. The site of
ancient Pthom Is identified a. Tcl-el-KcbIr A large
portion of what WAS once the land of Goshen is now
covered by Lake Menzaleh. Many of the ancient
canals in tbs part Of Egypt were undoubtedly
constructed by the lsraeltes who compelled TO
serve precisely in the same way III which Ismall
the late Khedive. employed the forced labor of the
Fellaheen IN constructing his modern canals Tho
route through which Sir Garnet Wolseley enters
Egypt crosses that by which the Children of Israel
left it on the journey to the Red Sea.
1t is significant fact to Americans that the only
part OF the Arrears bill which was voted tor with
enthusiasm by both Conservatives and Liberals was
the emigration clause. The secret belief of most
Engshmen evidently is that the only way to
Ireland is to clear it OF lrlshmen. The figures given
by the advocates OF assisted emigration are also
worth noting. Government was TO give q grant of
$500 900 and Boards of Guardians were empOw
cred to borrow tor the purpose OF exporting the
poorest aud most helpless or the population IL
was calculated that one-third at least OF that
amount would DO contributed by Engishmen in
favor of the scheme. Mr. luke, who may DO
sidered an expert tho condition OF the West
Coast asserts that 10000 OF the population must
be sent away before there is any chance for the
rest. The conclusion forces itself upon the most

pledges, international action VIII not NC re-
ouired. He aims to restore the sovereignty oil
the Khedve by suppressing military revolt.
If the British forces withdraw when their work
Is done. and the Viceroy be lett to govern his
dominions. Europe will have no grounds for
complaint or criticism. If, however, the re-
lations of England to Egypt are to he recast,
international action may become necessary.
But whatever may be done in Conference, 1t is
safe to predict that there will he no bargains
on the back stairs as there were before the
Congress of Berlin. There will be no treaty to
revise, for none will be made with the khe-
dives rebelious War Minister, and there will
be neither Anglo Russian memorandum nor
Anglo Turkish intrigue.
General WOlseley uses the newspaper CORE
spondents for purposes of his own When lie
wishes to dupe the enemy, and anticipates 'ner
dispatches when there is any real news 10 oc
told. His official accounts of the operations
of the army in the field are received IN advance
of the correspondents notes, anu Delhg amply
conscious of the merits of his campaigning
nlans and the superiority of his tactics, he sue
ceeds in doing full justice to himself ana MS
men. There are vainglorous passages and
bits of gratuitous patriotism in them. but they
are clearly if not modestly written, and an IN
telligible report from headquarters Is more
satisfactory than dozen incomplete and con-
Trajectory accounts. Dispatch-wrlting has
ALWAYS been considered one OF the highest OF
the military arts. NapOleOn's bulletins have
been as famous as his battles Every ambi-
tious commander is apt to plume himself upon
his talent for epigrammatic statement, espe-
cially at the opening of a campaign, when pub
lie impressions are vivid. General Grant made
several hits in phrasing. General Mcclellan
fred the Northern heart by graphic Official
account of the West Virginia skirmlshlng
and was speedily given command OF the Army
of the Potomac. His colleague, General
Patterson, like the vaingloriOus and volumnous
Beauregard, was so busy over his dispatches
that he never found time for anything else.
General Wolseley seems to have genius IOr
war us well as a talent for bulletin writing.

Tie weakness and imbecility OF the officials
oil Long Island City have at last become so APP
parent to the residents of that misgoverned
community that the people have appealed to
the county authorities to put stop to the
fragrant law breaking that has been going on
there so long The mere rumOr that the Sheriff
was about to break up pOol-selling was sufii-
cient to cause the operators to make a pre-
ciptous exit. Now if the city officials will
abdicate, and let Sheriff Wright take charge
of the duties which ;hey have shown them
selves VIGOROUSLY incompetent to perform,
Long Island City may in time become Il decent
and reputable place of residence.

The burning of crowded summer hotel at
Newport has not been attended with loss OF
life. although the fire WAS discovered when all
the guests were in bed. The progress of the
flames was so deliberate that most OF the board
ers seem to have had time to pack Their trunks,
but the fre-engines having a long way to go
did not sucrecd in saving the building. The
wonder is that similar alarm is not Oitener
raised in summer hotels. Most of them are
built in the hmsiest way of highly combustlble
material, with SO few muer walls and brick
partitions that the first spark speedily creates
al uunanageable bonfire.

The facts are always accessible in the guide

The following from the Citizen refers to former lesdent of Yuma, and an old Sentinel typo: Died at noon on the 11th instant, of assumption, in the twenty-f fifth year of his age, Jesus Maria Ballesteros, native of Sonora and citizen of the United States of whom we had need be proud, for he was a man among men; capable, honest and upright in all his dealings both in private and public capacities. He was for the year 1879 United States Inspector of Customs at this place and in the year following was United States Deputy Collector in Har- shaw. His health failing, he resigned his position, but ca recovering strength he accepted place as compositor on the Citizen, he being an adept at the trade. Afterwards he was promoted to foreman of the composing room, which position he filled with much credit to hlmself till ill health again compelled his retirement, and now death has closed his earthly career He leaves a mother and many friends to mourn his sad and untimely end. He was born in Altar, Sonora, but when six years of age his family emil grated to Arizona. When of age he be- came citizen of the United States, and was at the time of his death twenty-four years, seven months and twenty-f days old. He was buried at D. m. to day.

Or Monday night about the midnight hour, the peaceful sleep of the good peo- pie of our burg was disturbed by an ex- traordlnary exhibition of the elements. A most violent sand storm was in full blast. the wind rushing and twisting ev- erything out of shape. The atmosphere smelt strongly of the ore which is sup- posed to abound in hades, and many awakening from sound slumber thought they had made connection" The light hing and thunder were terrific, but not a drop of water fell. Awful as the Yuma snow storm was-howling like thousand furies-there were some who did not hear the uproar. Verify, the kind in heart shall slumber well

The Nations Characteristics.

Shrewdness and incredulity are the predominant characteristics of the Ame. rican people. They will take no stock in an article unless it is meritorious. When Dr. Swayne launched his Oin ntment for the Piles, that itch SC in teGselv at night, on a Sea of haman suffering, the phy- sician laughed, but the people tried it all the same and manifested tbeir appobation in a National endorsement. Now the allopaths and homeopaths are laughing the other way. This world is full of re- verses.

Richard Mellus. one of the passenger engineers, tells us that from near Montezuma section house to Maricopa, g miles, the road bed has all been washed away.
