responded in his usual happy and

Immcdiate surrender Demanded.

Zanzibar Aug. 27.-An ultimatun
was sent Said Kalid last evening, in
forming him that unless he strikes his
flag and makes n complete surrender
today the palace viii be bombarded. All
of the British residents OF the town
have been requested to so on board the
warships lying in the harbor. The force
under the control Of Said Kalid numbers
$500 men, all well armed. The consen-
sus of opinion is that the action Of Said
kalid has furnished n favorable occa-
sion for the hosting of the British flag
and abolition of the Arab yGie and slav-
cry. The belief is quite general here
that the death Of the late sultan was
caused by poison.
