 CoNsTANTINoPLE, Aug. 14-Osman, the ruler of the Borum,a State in Soudan, has sent 8 special emissary to Constantinople with declaration that he refuses any longer to rec ognize the Sultan aa the caliph, because of his proposal to send troops to fight againss Mohammedans under Arabi. This declara- tion of Osman, it is admitted. has caused great deal of anxiety to the Porte. The em- issary bearing the message has been here three days, but the object of his mission was only made known at the court of the palace this morning. The emissary will return to Cheriva, the capital of Bornu, with secret in structions from the Porte. Osman's action is the first announced from all those States through which holy war has been preached both by emissaries from Arabi and by follow CTS of Fl Mehdi, and it is believed that it will be followed by similar action on the part of the warriors of nearly all the other States along the Nile. It is understood there that reports sent out by Arabi arc implicitly be- lieved by the Mohammedans along the entire Nile region, while those from the Porte are distrusted as either English inventions or as in English interests.
 The Mussulman jurists, whom the Sultan frequently consults, explain that Arabi Pasha ! in so far as he disobeyed the caliph is rebel, and may be unceremoniously treated as such; but in so far as he has been 8 defender of Mohammedans against the aggressive designs of Christians, he has merely fulfilled the dnfiaG me nd ! ly the caliph cannot make common cause with England. The Sultan may punish Arabi Pasha | if some act of rebellion is proved against him, but he must not associate with those who wish to crush Arabi Pasha as the defender of Islam. A correspondent says this will great ! ly influence the Turkish military action. The Sultan in an interview condemns Brit I ish interference in Egypt, and says that the bombardment of Alexandria vas most cruel and unjust The Khedive states that Arabi has offered no terms of surrender and that the Circassian officers will form the nucleus ! Of new Egyptian army. Reouf Pasha, ap emissary or Arabi stated that Arabi would l fight to the last and was backed by the whole I nation.
