BILE rebellion in Egypt. Tfarq1iIity
has since been restored there
and clemercy has been shown by its
ruler to the leaders of the rebellion.
The Withdrawal of British troops is
proceeding as expeditiously as pru-
dence and circumstances admit. The
reconstruction of the government of
Egypt and reorganization Of Its affairs
under the khedive has partly been
accomplished and continue to receive
my earnest attention. It shall be my
endeavor to secure full provision for
the e~xigencies Of order, for inst rep.
resentation of the wants and wishes
of the population and for OBJ
servanoe of international obi-
cations. have already been
able to fulfill my promise to the sultan
and powers that l would submit to
their friendly consideration the ar.
rangements which appeared to me
best fitted to insure the stability of
the khedive's government, the pros.
perity and happiness of the Egyptians,
security Of the canal and peace of
eastern Europe. My policy has
been and will be directed to
those objects. I rely confidently
on Its fnal appreciation by other
countries A conference has Assem-
bled AT London to consider measures
for better securing free navigation of
the Danube, which is placed under
the guarantee of the powera and
forms part of thepubliclaw Of Europe.
The condition of Zululand aad the
possibility of renewed disorders there
has engaged my most serious asten.
ton. With a view to preservation of
peace and order, l have moved the
former ruler be placed In possession
of the greater part of the territory he
held before the war. I earnestly hope
this will lead to the establishment Of
q more stable government and the
maintenance of good relations between
the Zulu nation and the adjoining
Cape colony. Papers on those sub.
jects will be presented you.
Gentlemen of the house of COM
mons, estimates for services the COM
