commander OF Damietta, has been shot by
! his own soldiers.
| Abdellah summoned his black regiment
and said he expected them TO fight till the
| last. lie declared that Arab had turned
| traitor and fed, but Kafr Ell Dwar was max
| ing heroic resistance. The soldiers asked
why they should risk their lives for Arab
| and Abdeilah. The latter replied that they
were not fighting for him, bu. for their re-
| Lgion, their country and their caliph. They
should be ready, be said, to die, he was.
| The soldiers replied: "Then die" and shot
| him through the stomach.
The following general order has been is

| ment on three successive parades: "The
general commanding-inc chief congratulates
| the army upon its briIlisut successes,
crowned by the capture of Arab Pasha and
the surrender of Cairo. The general COM
| maudfag in-chief feels proud to place upon
record The fact that the brilliant achieve
menis Of the campaign are to be attributed to
the high courage end noble devotion of all
ranks. Called upon to show discipline under
exceptional privations, to give proof of FORTH
tude Ia extreme peril, and 70 show contempt
for danger IN battle, the officers and men
have responded with zeal and alacrity, ad-
ding sppthAz- ehapter 10 the long roll of
British victories"
The review OF the British troops on the
arrival of the Khedive will be an imposing
spectacle 1t is expected that about 10, 900
men will be IN line.
A large deputation of Ulemas waited on
General Wolseley and assured him that no
attempt will be made to excite the religious
feelings of the people.

chiefly by his servant, Sultan Pssha. Grena-
diers are guarding Arab Pashs.
All Egyptians wounded in the battle of
Tel Ell Kiber have been brought here.

render.
AT LONDON.
LONDON, September 20.-A telegram is
published here stating that, in consequence
OF disorders in The Arab quarter of Cairo,
General Wolseley has threatened in the
event OF their renewal TO open fire from the
citadel
The Times says: s'There can be no possible
questioE that whatever may be the ultimate
solution OF the political problem, the Khe-
dive must Tor a considef able time Team on
the force which has destroyed the rebellion.
Large numbers of our troops will no doubt
return home, but there must remain a sufh-
Gent number to overawe dissffecten. We
may go further, and say that the organiza-
ton of permanent force for the mainten-
ance of order must proceed under English
direction"

THE FOUR KELTs.
The Boston Advertiser makes the curious
mistake of calling "four Irishmen who are
doing good service for Great Britain Just
now"-Lord Duferin, Admiral Seymour, Sir
Garnet Wolseley and Lord Beresford-"all
Keis." The New York Sun, in correcting
this, makes mistake of its own, for it says
that ''only one of them is Kelt," Lord Duf-
FERN. The fact is that Admiral Seymour is
neither an Irishmsn nor Kelt, and that
Lord Dufferin is no more a Kelt than Sir
Garnet Wolseley. His family name is Black
wood, and his ancestor, Scotchman, settled
in Ireland in the seventeenth century. Since
then The Blackwoods have iutermarried with
Joycep, Stephensons, Temples, Finiays, but

truth is, the intermixture Of blood among all
classes IN Ireland is very great, SO that It is
questionable whether the island now con-
tains any pure Keils at all; but as
general rule, if any exist, they are
to BE- found among the Catholic Macs
or O's. The chances are a thousand to
one that Protestant Irishman who is neither
Mac nor an o. has little or no Kettle blood
in his veins. But it is none the less true that
the Kettle temperament is more or less diff
fused through the Irish of all breeds by
process which in every country works
greater or less assimilation even without
mixture of blood. Both Sir Garnet Wolse-
ley and Lord Dufferiu are, though not
Kelts, disiinctively Irish in mind and man.
ner, and the Beresfords, though very pure
AnSlo-Normap, have ouidone most Kelts in
love OF what the Kelis call "diyilmint," or,
in other world, in exuberant animal spirits.
Wellington WAS one of the few examples of
an Irishmsn with a very English tempera-
ment, but he was peculiar even in his own
family. His brothers we're men of the Duf-
ferin type, though none of them, we believe,
cared much for the country of their birth, in
which their ancestors had dwelt on one side
for 500 and on the other for 700 years-one
