The Great victory OF the False
Prophet.

NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-Thls mornings
He raid commenting on the late decisive
victory OF III Mahdi, aud the humiliation
OF the Egyptian army, says Of the probable
future course Of the False Prophet:
at seems to be thought in Cairo that FL
Mahdl, having destroyed the forces in his
front, will at once rush to Cairo, which is
fancy that exhibits the panicky condition
OF opinion 10 that city. 1t Is more likely
that his force will melt away rs such forces
generally do after the one supreme effort.
But his victory will furnish the occasion for
further fastening Of the hold OF England
upon Egypt, and perhaps for final organ
iza'ion OF that country as British province
upon the plan found effective in ludia."
