were forecasting events at the departure of last mail, and the prevailing opinion appeared to be that the National Party in Egypt had defied the Khediva on the understanding that the Sultan would support them, and that the hated Foreign Control would thus be cast out of the country, The Tires thinks that the ob joot of the Porte was to show that Turkish of troops could alone rastere, order, and thereby reconcile Europe to the iden of Turkish, as against bifropean, inter vention. The Daily Telegraph puts it that to call in Turkey, after keeping her out of Egypt for forty years, is a confession of great weakness on the part of England and France; while Arabi Bey's part has been olaverly played so 18 to compel France and England to act thus feebly, Arabl is the instrument (say the Daily Nene) througli which - the Porte is seeking to oust the Foreign Control, which it hates, and to establish the Turkish sovereignty after which it konkera. It is easy enough to make use of Turkish troops, but when they are landed in Egypt, it is. not quite so easy to say what they will do. The Parisian papers are bigh in praise of the astuteness of Turkish diplo macy and ask whether we shall be obliged to go and take lessong of her in the diplomatic art These comments Certainly tend to throw light upon the motives of the parties involved in this Egyptian game but the telegraphia announcements to the elect that the Egyptian Government had determined to resist the Turkish troops seems to us to upset all the fine theories above sat forth-anless, of course, the assertion in mere bluster to mislead the Europeau last message, does not think the Powers Mr Gladstone, according to nots justify as yet any demand for a vote of credit. Further news as to the development of the various claimants for control in Egypt, will be looked for now with greater interest that evez.
