THE cennus of Italy, which has just been com- pleted shows a population of 28,500,000. It is interesting to know in this connection that act- ording to the new projected military arrange- ment the army will consist oftwelve corps, 427,000 strong, besides 20,000 men in the Alpine regis lives were Just altogether in the riots last Sunday PRINTERS SINDION! ments, 100,000 moveable militia, and the Terri.in which are included six Englishnica. The *torial army.

garrison at Alexandria has been increased to iwelve thousand men. The authorities have arrested 200 of the rioters.

ROME, June 12th.

A HOME paper states that the scarcity of water is excessive in France and Germany; the level of the Seine has never been so low since 1734. The quantity of rain which fell this winter has not reached half the usual amount. The engineers of the city of Paris and the Government are try- ing to find protection against such a scarcity, which will turn to a calamity if rainy weather does not set in shortly.

The semi-official Arabic paper El Jawab pus blishes a letter signed by Ali Ben Khalifa, in which the writer contradicts the rumour that he was negotiating with the ley of Tunis with the object of recognising the latter's authority and abandoning the struggle. The letter proceeds as follows: The Bey having delivered up Tunis without consulting me or my partisans, we have resolved to recognise no authority in Tanis ex- cept that of our Caliph the Sultan, and we are determined to fight for the independence of our country to the last extremity." The semi-official journal adds that the names of the chiefs of the great tribes who have refused to submit to the Key, and now follow Ali Ben Khalifa, are as fol- lows: Ben Youssouf, Chief of the Hammama

Tribe; Hussein, caid of the Class Tribe; Houla, Caid of the Fxladiesit; and Sheikh Zou, Caid of the Ourghemmas.

WHATEVER may be said of the Black Gang" in Russia, the charge of want of energy and en- terprise certainly cannot be laid to their door.

It transpires that at St. Petersburg an attempt

was recently made to rob the Treasury at Jaros law. The plot for accomplishing this end seems

A Ministerial bill has been introduced into the Italian Chamber of Depoties declaring Assab an italian colony and a free port.

CAIRO, June 13th. The Khedive has gune to Alexandria with Dervish Pasha,,

Rome, June 13th.

In the Chamber of Deputies the Minister for Foreign Affairs declared, that Italy absolutely refuses to assent to an armed intervention by England and France in Egypt.

LOSION, June 14th.

In the House of Commons, the Opposition demanded further information respecting the Egyptian crisis.

Mr. Gladstone deprecated discussion at present, but summed up the British policy which was the maintenance of existing rights in Egypt and the obtainment of guarantees for the same. The French Government had promised cordial co. operation, and other Powers also were heartily co-operating with England Turkey was no- cessary as an intermediary; and the Sultan was in harmony with the great Powers, particularly with England.

CAIRO, June 14th. All the Foreign Consuls-General have arrived at Alexandria.

LONDON, June 15th, The Times publishes a telegram from Alex- andria that the Khedive and Dervish Pasha have requested the Porte to despatch 18,000 Turkish troops to Egypt.

The European Control have closed their offices and a general exodus of Europeans is taking place.

The Egyptian soldiers are behaving well.

The suspicions of the police, however, being aroused, a descent was made an the premises, and it was found that an under. ground passage leading to the Treasury was being excavated. It is needless to add that the enterprising ironmongers were not allowed to wait for any more customers. The Government olicials entertained the notion that it was time the ironmongers' shop was shut up-ditto the proprietors thereof.
