COMING TO A CRISIS.
The British Expedition Against Arab
Ready to Move-Great Suffering in
the Enemy's Camp.
England and Ireland = Indignation at
trays Arrest Increasing-Press
Comments and Speeches.

ALEXANDRIA, August 18.-The whole expe-
dition is on board ship ready to start in the
morning. Their destination is stilI uncer-
tain.
Arabi Pasha is said to be in negotiation
tor his escape in case of need to the reei-
dence of fsnaticsl Mohammedan diguitary
on the borders of Tripoli.
A deserter from Arab Pasha's forces give
a graphic description of the misery prevsil-
ing in the latier's camp, where the wounded
crawling about, their sufferipgs unheeded,
present sad picture of distress and neglect
Some of these poor creatures are said to have
been shot by their comrades to free them from
their agony. Many Egyptians are compelled
against their will to fght.
There is reason to believe the censorship
of the press telegrams will be changed for
the German system, making correspondents
personally responsible, and allowing them TO
send what they wish.
The enemy is content with his intreuch-
ments, doing little or nothing to improve
them.
Rebel official returns state that their forces
number $4,000 regulars, $4,000 militia and
$4,000 armed Bedouins. They claim to have
25,0 600 men at Ksfr Ell Dwar. These num-
bers are, of course, greatly exaggerated, but
show the tone of confidence adopted by the
native party.
The transports Orient, Capella, Palmyra
and Iberia left the harbor to-day; also an
other steamer with railway wagons, rails
and engines for Ismailis.
Men and stores were landed to-day from
the Orentes. The Guards, with horses, have
gone 10 sea on board the transports Batavia,
Orient and Iberia. The greatest secrecy ex-
lists in regard TO the destination of the trans
ports.
The British ironclads, with the Egyptian
and foreign men-of-war here, fired salutes
to-day in honor of the birthday of Emperor
Francis Joseph, of Austria.
Blue jackets from the flag ship Inconstant
mounted seven-inch gun at Ramleh to-day.
They will resume operations tomorrow and
complete a battery of four guns.
The Aboukir division will consist OF about
5000 men. In case of necessity it will be
reinforced by 1000 from the naval brigade.
Major-General SIR Edward Hamley's divis-
ion is 1000 strong. The weather is oppres-
sively warm.
1t is reported from Cairo that Arab
Pasha has warned European residents that
he will not be responsible for their safety,
having called all the soldiers and police to
the front.

successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in

efectual purgatiEe Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value

can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They

AN EXPENSIVE CENSUS.
MORE MONEY NEEDED BY THE BUREAU TO
CONfPI FTF THE WORK

WAsHINGToN, August 1S.-It seems prob
able that by the time Congress meets the
census bureau will want some more money
Running on the most economical plan pos
sible, with only 260, when twice that number
of clerks was needed, it has rapidly eaten
mp the S500,00o deficiency which Congress
appropriated at its last session. In fact,
large portion of this money was alresdy due
to the clerks when it was received from the
treasury. The bureau is so crsmped for
money now that the necessary blanks cannot
be printed. OF course the work Of the
bureau will go on, because arrangements
can be made by which the pay-rolls OF the
bureau will be csshed by local brokers, but
its work will be seriously delayed, if not
crippled, This lamentable result seems TO
be due chiefly to the timidity of the census
bureau in asking Congress for money. As
prominent member of the Census Committee
said just before Congress adjourned: "The
temper of Congress at the time the 100000
was appropriated was such that it would
have given 100000 as readily as it did
the amount which was asked for" The CEN
sus work could be finished in short order and
in good style if the census bureau had the
money il needs

New ORLEANS, August 1s.-The money
markey has become stringent, with a good
demand. Cotton-spot business restricted
by light supply; the market ruled steady and
weak in prices; weeks sales, 1900 bales
Crop accounts from all sections of the cotton
belt are favorable. Futures-only moder-
ate trade has been done; weeks sales, $4,000
bales. There is no speculative. feeling, and
what little is done is pretty much scalping
by brokers. The sugsr market presents no
new feature; prices remain unchanged, and
crop prospects are good. Molssses-trade
limited to reboiled and mixed goods; no
