GENERAL GORDoS's JOURNEY FROM AssoUAN TO
BERBER.
LONDON, Feb. 2-Advces from Cairo to-day IN
dcate that the alarm for the fate OF the garrlsons
of Tokar and Snkat is greatly intensified. Ihe
delay of Baker Pacha's advance has without doubt
sealed the fate of Siukat, where Tewhk Bey, with
400 soldiers and 1000 women and children, has
been besieged for some weeks past. messenger
reached Suakim from Tewfk on Thursday, who an
nounced that unless relief reached Sinkat by sat
urday Tewfk would make one rally more, and III
case he was defeated would then surrender III E
reported that the delay of Baker Pacha to advance
Is due to the dsafectOn of the black troops owing
to the removal of their leader, Zobehr Pacha.
The English officers with Baker Pacha at rrinktat
report that the Egyptian troops so utterly in
efficient in drill and the use of rifles while the
native officers are cowardly and unwilling to march
on the ground. that defeat is certain. Baker VIII
await the arrival of friendly Sheks and do all In
his power to relieve Tokar by the use of diplomacy
and bribery before forcing his troops to march in
land. Military critics ca culate that in case Baker,
Pacha is compelled to cut his way through to Tokar
the chances are three to one in favor of the COM
plete annihilation of all his forces
The adviccs from Massowah regarding the Abys-
sinians are conflicting The report that Rao Aloula
commander Of the Abyssnan forces had withdrawn
his troops and left the road between Massowah and
Kassala open, is now cOntradicted 1t is rumorcd
that the Abyssinians are seizing territory beyond
their frontier. Parties of raiders have appeared IN
the vicinity of Kassala, but they were unable to
make an attack as they were armed only with
lances.
The fears for General Gordon's safety have been
greatly allevlated by the report that he takes
guard with HIM from Assouan to Berber, where a
small force will meet him from Khartoum. 1ha fact
that General Gordon has been obliged to send
complaint to Cairo that the son of the Sultan at
Darfour who was sent with him to assist in the
work of pacifcation, is an habtual drunkard, and
is totally incompetent for the place, raised the sus
picton that the Egyptian authorities are trying to
hamper General Gordon in his arduOus undertaking.
1t is considered doubtful whether the Egyptian au-
thorltics are giving Baker general support. These
and similar troubles are tending inevitably to the
permanency of British protectoTate over Egypt.
Even its annexation by England is now advocated
by the German official papers, while Baron Roths-
child and other inanceTs who interested In the
security of Egyptian finances are urging public
assurance of the continuance of the protectorate

BORNE-THE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT
LONDON, Feb. 2,--The Queen held a cabinet
council this morning at Osborne, Isle of Wight,
where she is residing, preliminary to the open
ing of Parliament. The subjects to be considered
in the Queens speech were discussed. 1t is already
known that the speech will have nothing new to
disclose and it is awaited with general indifference
and lack of interest. The first night of the session
will be marked by the renewal of party conte' ts
The Opposition will take the initiative by moving

on Thursday to decide upon policy and concert
plans for the Parliamentary campaign. Ii IS be-
ieved that they will decide 20 follow the same gem
