The suItan's Clever Little Game,

CoNsTANT1NoPLE, July 2s.-It is rumored that the Porte has counseled Arabi to make temporary terms and that the Porte has se- cretly directed the Khsdive to accept them. It is supposed that the Porte fears to actually send troops into Egypt on account of the ule- mas, who will turn against him and support Arabi in proclaiming a general holy war, which would result in the disruption of the Sultan's authority over the Moslems and the permanent occupation of Egypt by England or the eventual elevation of Arabi to the place of religious leader.
