and began MS Work ny
sketchiing the military history Of the
country up X the time when the cohorts
of Cesar and Mark Antony garrisoned

I'm 1859 the khedive called to his
staff American officers. They were
aworn to uphold the cause Of Egypt
;sgainst any nation but the United
States. No change in European politics
could effect the loyalty or embarrass
the service of these officers. In 1870 he
|(Gen. Stonells arrived in Egypt. He
found there not moro than q third Of the
officers i d the army could read Or write
and not one in ten Of the rank and file
.cos,ld do either. With the exception of
few Armstrong gums there were no
arms bnt old smooth bores in the har-
Dor fOrts, and the coast defenses We're
about as bad as those of the United
States. At this sally the assernblage
reared with laughter, and Gen. Han
cock nodded in affirmation.
The lecturer told how he had es-
tAblisheda military college on the basis
lof tho military school at West Point for
staR officers, and how the army was
gradually instructed up to the standard

lfications we're also equipped with the
best arms and ARTILLERY.

On evil hour for Egypt the
Khedive Ismail, trusting in the honor
IL European governments, allowed two
European ministers to enter his cabinet,
eAch iii charge Of . very important
ministry. An English minister of fl
nance and 8 French minister of public
works entered his service, but really
they, while holding portfolios in a
Egyptisn cabinet, were representatives
Of the interests Of their respective gov
ernnenta. Each one worked to secure
i his own government the commanding
power in Egypt. This unhappy change
