Egyptian Troops Defeated by the False
Prophet.
LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE Times saws: The
scheme formulated by the Egyptian govern
ment and approved by Lord Dufferln and
transmitted to the foreign office proposes that
the Khediye shall have council of twelve
responsible ministers and that legislative
council of fourteen members shall be formed
hait ct whom shall be nominated by the Khe-
dive and half ehosed by system of double
election such rs that for which abundant pre-
cedentS exist IN the American consttu-
tion and others. A legislative council of
"A members is also proposed to be convened to
occasionally discuss special subjects. The
latter will not participate in legislation, but
WIN assist legislation by giving voice to the
classes hitherto inarticulate. The initiative of
legislation rests wholly with the council of
ministers, but its projects must be submitted
to the legislative council before becoming law.
In the event of irreconciable differences be-
tween these bodies the decision probably will
be left to the Khedive.

Prince Napoleon's Manifesto.
LONDON, Jan. ia dispatch to the Daily
News from Paris says: Prince Jerome's mani
festo was placarded in the provinces and also
in the Faubourg st. Antoine, at Halles and at
Belleville. Some Of those who read the mani
festo tore it down, while others laughed con-
temptuously. It is estimated that 5000 bills
were posted. Twenty-six bill stckers were ar
rested while posting bills, eleven of them on
the denunciation of wsrkmen. They were re-
leased after giving their names and addresses.
At a Cabinet meeting, M. Fallieres, Minister
of the Interior. said that under the Press law
he thought nothing could be done. There was
tlx1co oh.
The other Ministers favored immediate aotion,
and it was finally agreed to arrest Prince Je-
rome Many dispatches have arrived from the
provinces encouraging the Ministers TO act en-
ergetlcally. AT the moment OF his arrest
Prince Jereme had just returned from walk
with four friends, being decorated with the
Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor. The ar
rest warrant was signed by the First President
OF the Court of Appeal. In the Chamber of
Deputies M. Cuneo Dornano stated that
he would Dlacard the manifesto in his depart
ment Many members thought that the vote
expeillng members of former dynastics went
beyond necessity, and that it would be sufi-
clent to arm the government with power to ex-
pebPrinces at discretion. 1t now appears that
the manifesto was agreed upon on the day af-
ter Gambettas funeral, the national character
Of which impressed Prince Jerome with the
idea that the people were, in their worship of
Gambetta. Bonapartists WITHOUT knowing it.
AS there was no Republican who could sue
ceed Gambetta, who was buried with more
than royal state, Prince sJerome thougbt that
only member of sovereign family could fill
the void. 1t is supposed that the manifesto
was printed in town where the Imperialists
prevail, amongs the artisan class, and that
bales were sent to different agents in the quar-
ters of the city where it was posted.
M. Georges Lachand is said to have been
the Intermediary be tween Prince Jerome and the
Figaro. The latter was not seized, but many
newsvenders, fearing seizure, hid it and only
sold il to known customers.
The followers of Prince Victor condemn and
M. Rouher approves the manifesto. The Bon
apartist Deputies hope that Prince jerome
will not be treated harshly in JAIL as he might
become popular if treated as a martyr
The Gauleis states that its printing establish
ment had obtained large order for placards
on white paper, which was distributed at XII
osks and sold as journals for i've centines.
A dispatch from Paris to the Times says:
The appearance of Prince Jerome's manifesto
is regarded by some as march stolen on 9the
Legitimists, for it was known that the Count
de Chamhord, impelled by his supporters, was
preparing manifesto. $4,000 placards had
been printed with the greatest secrecy. Baron
Brunet asked TO be arrested as an accessory TO
the PRONUNCIATION of the manifesto, but the
magistrate refused to take him into custody
Reports from the provinces state that the news
of the arrest OF Prince Jerome has created no
great sensation.
Paul Cassagnac Repudiates the Prince.
EsPARIs, Jan. 17.-Paul de Cassagnac on be-

pudiating all connection with Plon Plon. "I

least General Charrattees few thousand zou-
aves, who, at a crisis, might attempt coup de
main, though they would doubtless fail. Je-
rome has nothing, not general nor reg-
ment. His protests are platonic. We will
have nothing to do With him.
Jules Simon on the Situation.
NJ Jules Simon does not believe that any inn
minent danger threatens the republic He
thinks that new elections would nov result in
the return OF chamber similar to that exist
ing No pretender would have chance yet,
| though couple of years hence, unless the re-
publis ceases its impolitic war against the Cath
| olics, monarchist restoration may be quite
| possible The Count de Chambord would not
| have the least hope, he believes, while he
knows positively that neither the Duo d'Au-
male nor the Compte dc Paris has the slightest
| wish or intention to attempt revolution. The
| BonapartiSts alone might men9ce the republic.
| They were uDsoTupulous enough for anything,
but despite the weakness of the present minis-
try, the republic win stand certainly some time
| longer.
The papers generally approve the arrest of
Prince Napoleon, but nearly all of them con-
| denim the vote of urgency in the Chamber OF
Deputies on NJ. Floquet's motion prohibiting
thespresence in France or Algeria o any mem
Der of former French dynasties. The Debats
| says the Chamber gave proof of lameatable
simplicity and papic.
