The Egyptians made some advance yes
terdsy for peace, but refusing to come 10 the
terms proposed by the British-the surrender
OF the forts-the bombardmeut was renewed
this morning at o'clock. In the meantime
the wretd he'd and fanatical lower classes who
swarm in the streets of Alexandria have been
busy, and like the petroLeusc of Paris during
the bombardment of that city at the close of
the o-Prusaian war, have determined
TO burn and destroy the city which was built
with so much care by Mshemet Ali
and his successors. The fires in the
doomed city, which has many times before
been sacked aud destroyed-7once by the
Mohammedans themselves-seemed at last
sdvices TO be increasing, and the khedive's
palace, which looked out upon the western
harbor or old port, has been destroyed, and
the British consulate with great many
O her houses in its vicinity. The palace
was finely situated facing the sea, and was
surrounded BY beautiful gardens. The
grand staircase reaching up from the water
was of Carrara marble. The buildings
of the harem stood opposite the palace.
The population of Alexandria by the last
census was 800, 900, of which 10000 were
Copts and $4,000 were Europeans, most OF
them Greeks and Italians. The modern city
was built on the isthmus connecting the main
land with the Island of Pharos and on the
Island itself. The new streets, like the hue
Ras FL Teen and the Rue de Meidan, presented
the aspect of a European city, but IN the
Turkish quarter the streets were mar
row and dirty. The new emoank-
meut along the eastern hsrbor and
the new buildings on the great square oil
Mehemet Ali added greatly to the at
tracliveness of the city. The palace OF the
pasha and the lofty harem were the first
buildings to attract the strangers attention
on entering the city. Among the other large
buildings we're the customhouse, the arsenal,
the medical, naval snd other schools. The
Place Mehemet Ali, or grand square OF the
consuls, where the greater part OF the mas-
sacre in the recent riots took place, was the
center of European Alexandria. The older
houses recalled somewhat those of Italian
seaports Ga this square were the principal
hotels, bankers, steamship offices and the
dwellings of most Of the consuls. At each ex-
tremity of the square there was fountain,
which a. sunrise and sunset was surrounded
by Arabs performing their abiutions. 1t Is
feared that all these evidences and lndIces oil
civilization will fall prey TO the torch, and
that buildings aud quays constructed with
50 much care and at much expense Will
be a heap Of ruins before the English can
take possession.

Meeting orIron and Man n manufacturers.

PITTsBURG, July 12.-There was a meeting
OF iron and nail manufacturers of the West
here to-day. The attendance was large, rep
resentatives being present from all points
excepting st. Louis and Cincinnati. The
nail manufacturers first met, and after a
brief discussion it was decided not to inter-
fere with the card rate, and to leave matters
just as they were until the next meeting, in
October. The newly-formed iron associa-
ton then marshaled Its members for the first
time since its organization, six weeks ago.
The meeting was taken up with discussing
the situation, during which it was found
that not one who had signed the constitution
of the new association had signed the scale,
and that the members were as firm as ever
in their determination to resist the demand
of the strikers. The situation has not
changed for several days. Dilworth, Porter
& Co., of this city, signed the scale to-day,
but as they do no pudding their signing has
no significance and will in 10 wise affect the
manufacturing side.

The Times Paris correspondent reports that
NJ. Goblet, replying 10 Gambetta in regard
10 the Egyptian affair, said France had not
co-opersted in the bombardment because
Englands conduct did not seem to her iusti-
fed, and because France did not desire TO
emerge from the European concert. The
correspondent adds that it is at least three
weeks since England proposed to France to
join her 10 an occupation OF the Suez canal,
but, as France raised objections, England
gave up the idea of French cooperation in
that direction and turned her attention TO
Alexsndria. Since then she has urged
France to keep her company, and until the

THESiaie canvass has been fairly launched.
There are four candidates. for governor in
the field. William 2. Bate is the candidate
of the Democratic party; Joseph H. RUSSELL
is the candidate of the boiling Democrats;
Governor Hawkins is the Republican can
didate for re election, and j. r. Beasley is
the Greenback candidate. Besides these the
Etheridge in the field az their candidate.
notwithstanding the boiling Democrats have
made bid for their votes by iudorsing the
four-mile law. The canvass, it is predicted,
will be bitter on all sides. The fanatics on
the temperance question will make strong
and earnest appeal to the religious element
in the State and the Greenbackers will pander
to the regulators. Between the boilers and
the Democrats The war will be waged with
the bitterness and intensity usual when
brothers fall out, and the Republicans will
take advantage of the feud to push their
fortunes. The APPEAL will do what it can
TO smooth the troubled waters and con6ne
the canvass to temperate and conservative
limits, but 1t will be none the less earnest in
its advocacy of Bate upon the platform
which more than 1900 of the 400 delegates
10 the State convention unanimously adopted
In the annals of the State no such contest
as this has ever been precipitated upon the
people, but every right thinking Democrat
by the light of the doctrine that "tbe M jor-
iiy shall rule" will be able to steer clear of
the complications and land with a major
iy of the party IN the haven Of success.
