The 1850 Killed near Tekar
GEN. GoRDoN's MISSION IN THE SOU
DAN.

LONDON, Feb. T. Official advices
from Cairo announce that the total
number killed near Tokar was $3.50.
This includes 96 officers, l6 OF whom
were staff officers. Baker Pasha teIe-
graphs that he has at present under
his command $500 men, a third of
whom are unarmed. 1t Is officially
denied that the tribes beyond Korosko
are in revolt.
The transport Poonah, now at Ports
mouth, has been ordered 10 put itself
in readiness 10 sail forthwith. 1t will
take 500 marines 10 Suakim. The
government has ordered the comman.
der of The Mediterranean squadron at
Malta 10 dispatch as many marines as
possible to Suaklm. 1t is expected
that he will be able 10 spare | 200.
A dispatch from Cairo 10 Reuters
Telegram Company says that Gen.
Gordon cannot reach Berher before to-
morrow. 1t is therefore quite impossl-
bic for any authentic uews of bis move
ments to reach Cairo before tomorrow.
1t is reported that he has been cap
tured. but The story is dlscredited.
A letter from Gen, Gordon has been
made public, IN which he says: 1T is
no secret that England has abandoned
all intention of guaranteeing the con-
tinuing Of Egyptian supremacy over
the Sudan. 1t has decided that the
task is altogether too oneIous, aud
would be attended with no correspond
Ing advantage s. 1t will therefore al
low the people now in rebellion 10 re-
vert to their old Sullans."
Gen. Gordon accepts this decision as
wise and Just. For" he says. "un-
less England shall secure the Soudan
in the possession of a good govern.
meut, it ought not 10 conquer the
country itself nor allow others TO do
So" Gen. Gordon's mission, there
fore, is to try and arrange with the
people in a quiet way regarding their
future affairs.
Great anxiety is felt for the safety OF
Mr. James O'Kelly. NJ, p, the new
correspondent of the Daily News in
Egypt. Nothing has been heard from
him since Decem Der Is.

When the Malone party was domi
nant in Virginia the manly, thrifty, hard
working, intelligent people were for &
little while cast down, as they saw a
tyran's heel pressed savagely upon
liberty. We were defeated 10 1881, anC
again in 1882. Oae victory was enough
to raise the conceal ola narrow minded
upstart, and N axe the incendilry lie ader
run riot over The rights of the people.
The second victory, Of course, increased
the arrogance and the bodness Of thi;
infamous tyrant. Decency was tram
pied under foot, The temples of justice
we're converted into partisan tribunals.
The charities of the State were reor-
gained SO as to give Cfice TO partisan
valtures. Virginia was being dIsman-
tied.
All these things the Conservative
people saw, but though their wrath was
kinded, they did not make fendish ex-
hibi;ions of their temper as the defea-
ted Mahoneites are now doing. They
did not try to incite to incendary deeds
as the so'called COaliIiOnlsts are now
doing. They simply bore the evils oil
misrule philosophically, aud at the
same time deteImin 10 overthrow
Mahoneism at the pools; aud last fall
rising in their manhood and power, the
freemen Of Virginia accomplished their
work ef'ectually. They overth rev tyr
amy and put an end forever 10 Boss
ism in this Commonwealth.
Was eyer heard such hOwllDg as the
whilom Boss and his Lenchmen send
forth Like hungry hyenas driven
from their prey they howl be-
cause they cannot longer prey upon the
people Of Virginia, Fa! places they
made for themselves, and they howl
because they are TO be put out sooner
or later on account OF Incompetence e
aud maladmlnistratiOn of their trusts.
Such bowling 10 the hour Of defeat
shows what rich spOlls the spollsmen
had found. And such bowling on the
part of the ex Boss shows how that
selfish individual hates TO give up his
position OF legislative manipulation.
Everyone must be struck with the
difference between the Malone meth
DDS and the Democratic methods. Will
lia Malone as chairman OF the Read
ulster party was ex.officlo dictator OF
that party, manager Of lis Legislature
and autocrat of Virginia. During The
last session oil the Legislature he left
the Uoiled States Senate and spent
much of bis inc in Rchmond ruling
that Legislature. No railroad charter
could be granted, no bill of any kind
could be passed without his approval.
AS chairman OF his Executive commit
tee it was virtually tue Legislative,
the Executive and the Judiciary.
Greater scandal thau his methods
brought upon Virginia was never known
IN the history of any American Com
monwealth.
Last summer delegates selected BY
the Democrats met in Lynchburg and
elected John s, Barbour chairman of

The Ragin & Floods.

CINCINNATI, February S.-The Relief
Committee, in conjunction with May
or Stephens. have decided to call out
the militia tonight to serve as assis-
tant patrol on account of the dark
ness. The president Of the gas COM
pany says that the supply Of gass will
not be sufficient to last through the
night. Three hundred men have been
placed on duty. The river was so feet
y inches at P. NJ. aud G. feet 81
inches at P. NJ.
A dispatch from Zan esville says the
Muskingum river was higher this
morning than ever known, and is still
rising an inch every half hour. The
water reaches the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad bridge, and only the absence
of drift saves it.
There has been no loss of life on this
side of the river. In Newport, Ky,
early this morning, William Buchelt,
bugler of the United States troops at
Newport barracks, fell from a skiff
while trying to reach the second story
of the barracks building, and was
drowned, He was twenty-five years
old and belonged to Raltimere. Mrs.
Waddler, a widow living in Newport
has become a raving maniac on &C
count of the flood. At meeting Of
the executive committee of the Relief
Committee appointed by the CHAM
Der of Commerce this morning 1t was
unanimously determined that all mon
ey received from other places shou Id
used for the relief of suffering in los
calities outside of this city, 1t bel ng

gahela marks showing twenty-six
