OF the gentleman from Ohio that the Chi

1t is certainly important TO Montana who
shall constitute the members of the next
Legislative assembly. While something de-
ponds upon the Delegate 10 Congress, the
legislation really affecting most vitality the
interests Of Montana, Is enacted In its own
Legislatures, ard there has never been q
time when it Was more important to elect
good men than the present. The railroad
companies now building In the Territory
will probably ask enactments, some of the
provisions of which will require discrimin-
mating judgment, keen intelligence and
fidelity to the public interests to give the
railroads the legislation they should have
and refuse them that which would be preju-

responsible position In the House of Repre-

EGYPTIAN AFFAIRS.
Baker Pasi,a's scheme Approved. Home
from the War. H.

CAIRO, October 20.--The Council of Min
listers has adopted the preliminary scheme of
Baker Pasha for the reorganization of the
Egyptian army. Baker Pasha recommends
that the field officers of each regiment, bat
terry, battalion, etc, be half British and half
Egyptian, and the other officers from the
rank Of captain downward be selected from
Egyptians, Aibanians and Others already in
the service of the Khedive.
The staff will consist Of an equal number
of British and Egyptians. The eendsrmerie
will be differed by the Egyptians, but will
have two British inspectors. Baker Pasha
considers that one of the principal advanta-
ges of his scheme will he the healthy emula-
tion between regiments commanded by
British officers and those commanded by
native officers. The army will number no.
600 men.
THE INDICTMENT AGAINST ARABI.
1t is believed the following will constitute
the chief counts OF the Indictment against
Arab pasha: First, that, in violation of the
right OF nations he hoisted the white flag on
Alexandria, aud under cover thereof retired
with his troops aud gave up the city to fire
and pillage; second, that be excited the
Egyptians to arms against the Khedive; third,
that he continued the war despite the news
of peace; fourth, with having melted civil
war, massacre and pllage in Egyptian terri
tory.
ALEXANDRIA, October 20.---Genl. Woise-
ley has arrived here from Cairo and has

LONDON, October 20.-The Horse Guards

London to-day. taking, unexpectedly. the
route by Ellington. The reception along the
whole route, over six miles long, was en-,
thusiastic to a remarkable extent. On arri
val at The Albany barracks, in London, they
were received by the Prince aud Princess of
Wales. The Life Guards met with no less
hearty greeting at Windsor.
