ARABI PAsHA oUTLAwRp.
ALEXANDRIA, July IS, Gas a. m.-The
khedive has signed decree aismissing Arab
Pasha and declaring him o rebel. He will
also issue general order forbidding the
Egyptian army to obey orders from Arab
Pasha and forbidding the people to pay him
tribute.
EMBARGOED MAIL STEAMER.
The mail steamer from Constantinople ar
rived this morning. 1t has been embargoed
and the captain arrested on suspicion that she
was conveying letters to Arab Pasha. The
steamer is guarded by four steam launches
from the British fleet. The British have
chartered two vessels to convey three hundred
mules from LYmsol to Cyprus. They will
start for that port to-day.
THE WANING WATER.
Mahmadoch canal continues to fall rapidly.
1t has fallen fourteen inches In the last
forty-eight hours. Miscreants are still &C.
casionally caught with cotton bales in tn cir
possession saturated with petroleum.
FIGHTING THE DROUGHT.
ALEXANDRIA, July 2S.-The staff Of the
water works are hard at work cleaning the
Roman cisterns for the storage of water. 1t
is a race between the falling level of the canal
and the dauntless energy of the English engi-
neers. If only water enough can be stored 10
tide over another month the Nile inundation
will probably sweep away Arabi's dyke or rush
around 1t and all will be well.

parture from Kafr Fl Dwar accompanied by

partitions and your refusal to come to us after
orders, | dismiss you from the office OF min
lister of war.

cular to the army:
On perusing the order for the dismissal OF
Arab from the Office of minister of war, you
Will know the great motives which necessi-
tated his dismissal. Hencsforward he will
ever agrees with his designs and
movements will have to participate
In his crime. Whosoever shows obedience and
conforms to our rule wilfdeserve honor, cour-
tesy, and good remuneration. You must be
aware the country Is surrounded with danger
and perils, for the powers have agreed on
Turkish Intervention, for the reform OF the
country, without delegating the privileges
granted to Egypt l am convinced you will
contine yourselves to my orders, which can
