To the Editor of the Herald:

VIII yOu please state in the columns of your paper
the morning Herald, the causes Of the present war
In Egypt, and oblige A READER.
Genoa, March s.
There is another inquiry of similar eff
| feet as the above. 1t is hardly necessary
to detail the history of England's inter-
ests in Egypt, the Suez canal ENTERPRISE.
the railroad building, the Improvements
on the Nile delta, the interests on the
Blue and White Nile, and the war that
sent ARABIA Pasha into exile.
When Egypt took possession Of the
provinces of the Soudan, years ago,
rulers were set over the people who
We're expected to turn in to the Govern
ment certain large annual tax. These
rulers, pashas as they are called, by a
system of extOrtion embittered the
tribes that lived in the Soudan against
the Government. When Ell Mahdi
the False Prophet, who claims to he do,
cended from Mohammed, proclaimed
himself the head of Mohamme re-
ligion. one by one the wandering tribes
fi0cked under his standard. The smaII
bodies of Egyptian troops that were
disposed at various points to Uphold the
government of the pashas were NOT
competent i'm any respect to enforce the
will of their masters, and in the con-
fiicts that ensued were defeated and
driven away or slaughtered. The
EGYPTIAN Government was informed
that they need expect no assistance
from England in any attempt that
might be made to establish their au-
thority in the Soudan. England no.
titled Egypt that the course that should
be pursued was to abandon the Soudan.
Meanwhile the following of Ell Mahdi
increased to an extent that even he in
his widest dreams never Anticipated.
The mission of General Gordon to the
Soudan is to announce the remuneration
of rule by Egypt, restore the former pet
ty Sultans or their families to- sover-
eighty, and in this way to deprive Ell
Mahdi Ofpower and influence. A part
of his mission is to withdraw in safety
all the Egyptians and Europeans that
wish to leave the SOudan and to estab-
lish friendly relations between the re-
stored chiefs, Egypt and England.
The demonstration of Osman Digna
at Tokar, Trinkitat, Sualxim and Sinlxat
are not directly connected with the
cause of Eel Mahdi, yet they are the
legitimate outcome of that uprising.
Osman Digna is an adventurous phsha
who has acquired an influence over the
wild Bedouin tribes, and saw in the dis
turbed condition of affairs an opportu-
nifty to secure great booty by looting the
towns on the Red Sea and on the road
to Khartoum and Berber. In the re-
cent battle at Teb he was severely pun
ished, but he is disposed to try conclu-
sions with the English once more.
