WAR NOLES. FULLER PARTICULARS.

A telegram from Off Alexandria at mid night on the [2th inst., says :—

‘‘The barracks, houses and windmills around Fort Mex are shattered to pieces. A portion of Ris E! Tin palace, recently inhabited by Dervisch Pasha, which formed ja separate building from the Khedive’s iresidence, has been burned to the ground, ' The lighthonse is still standing but a num- ; ber of holes are visible in the masonry. | The light appears injured. | The Bittern, after taking Flag Lieut. ‘Lambton on board, proceeded to the harbor ito learn the object of the flag of truce. ‘Information was conveyed to the com- 'mander of the Bittern that Toulba Pasha, | military commander in A'exandria, wished jto communicate with Admiral Seymour. | rc Lambton replied that as a pre- lliminary condition to further negotiations the forts dominating tiie «ntrance to the | harbor must be surrendered. ‘Toulba Pasha refused to accept these terms, and the Bittern returned to acquaint Admiral Seymour with his refusal. It is understood among the officers that firing will be re | sumed at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, but no | order to that effect has been given.

The Egyptians subsequently hoisted a second flag of truce and the Helicon was thereupon sent in to obtain information. The Bittern ascertained that the Khedive

will proceed direct to Alexandria, where, tozether with the naval brigade from the flect, numbering at least 2,000 men, they will be indecd under cover of the guns of the ship under the command of Sir Beanu- champ Seymour, The troopships being prepared in this country will embark the troops detailed for serviee in the Mediter- ranean, and also war material for the East. Tnese treopships carrying troops for Gib- raltar will land them on arrival at the rock, and at once embark the whole of its gar- rison, or about 3,000 mer, and convey them as reinforcements to Egypt.

the Temeraire signalled that parties of the suldiers were at work at the hospital battery near Fort Ada. ‘The iron clads opened fire ; only six rounds of shot and shrapnel were fired All took effect, the practice being excellent. The troops en- ed upon the work at once abandoned it and firing ceased. A white flag was now hoisted at the lighthouse. The Bittern was sent inside to inquire as to the intentions of the Government. After she steamed off the Temeraire made the following signal : ‘The body of men we saw working the hospital batteries have dispersed after our last shrapnel was fired. They took refuge in the casements near by. We saw about 160 men armed with rifles, running to- wards the lighthouse fort. They carried bags. We also sawan Egyptian General, apparently Arabi Pasha, surrounded by his staff Two 80 ton guns in Alexandria are disabled.” At 3 p. m., the Bittern was seen steam- ing out of the harbor. As she came out she signalled ;: ‘‘ Negotiations have failed. I have accordingly informed the authorities on shore that we will engage batteries at 3.30.” From this it seemed as if the officer and staff were observed in the hospital batteries. Finding themselves in a dan- gerous position and unable to escape, they had simply hoisted a flag of truce in order to get out of fire. When the Bittern went in, large bodies of troops were evacuating the barracks behind the forts, going out in field marching order. The Minister had no proposals to make. Lieutenant Lambton informed them that he had not come to offer conditions, but to re- ceive proposals. They replied that Fort Marabout had already been evacuied, but they could give no definite answer as to Mex Fort. The Governor conducted the conversation. He was in command during the action yesterday. He admitted that the troops suffered heavy losses. Lieut. Lampton informed him that should he agree to terms, the troops would beallowed to evacuate the forts with rifies and all the honors of war, but unless these terms were complied with, no negotiations will be en- tered upon.

As the Bittern steamed out the Egyp- iians hauled down the flag of truce. Orders have been given to the Temeraire and Sua- perb to fire five rounds each at Fort Pharos. We shall do the same at Mex Fort. If there be a reply we shall anchor for the night and resume operations to mor- row.

At five p. m. the Invincible has just fired anine-inch shell at Fort Mex. The shell struck the exact point aimed at and flames broke out from the building. There was no reply, nor is there any sign of life in the fort.

A few minutes after six a shot was fired at Fort Mex. A white flag was again hoist- ed. Adense smoke is rising over Alex- andria from two quarters. Another fire has just broken out, and fears are express- ed that the mob has begun to pillage and

ashore to inform the authorities that he accepts the flag of truce, but it will be the last truce to which he will agree, and henceforth he will consider the hoisting of a white flag asa sign of unconditional sur- render, and act accordingly.

ACCLIMATING THE MEN AT MALTA.

The plan adopted by the war office in conjunction with the admiralty, as laid

was said to be this: Should it be necessity

destroy. The Admiral is again sending |

‘the Porte to endeavor to arrange almost ‘any terms for a brief Turkish occupation. ‘It is stated, he assured Arabi, that the | Turks will not came as enemies, or inter- fere in any way with the existing state of ithings, but solely becanse the European | Powers insist upon the step being taken, — when this satisfact:on has been afforded ithe Turkish division’ will, after a short |stay, evacuate the country. All sections of the National party declare they will forcibly resist any landing of Turkish | troops.

THE NEW YORK ‘‘ HERALD” MAN’S OPINION,

The fact is that public opinion favors the

| Seizure of Egypt by England, although the ‘intention is not openly advocated, and the

i | bombardment of Alexandria may therefore

be regarded as merely the first step to a military occupation which is intended to separate Egypt from the government of the Sultan, turning it into an English province. No doubt some share of power will be re- served for France, in order not to wound too deeply her susceptibilities. It is hoped that France will feel compelled to acquiesce in this solution, in view of the danger to which she might be exposed from an Anglo German coalition, to which oe and Italy might be made parties, in exchange for England’s help \in bringing about the solution of the ‘European Eastern question favorably to a German power. The Mediterranean pow- | ers scem inclined to ally themselves with | England as against France. It is among the possibilities that when they discover that England aims not so much at the sup- _pression of Arabi, as at the practical an- , nexation of Egypt they will show them- selves equally ready tc ally themselves with | France tor the purpose of preventing the ‘firm establishment of England on the Nile. England, after she has overthrown Arabi Fasha’s power, may find herself compelled ether to admit another power to an equal share of the centrol of Egyptian affairs, or to fight a formidable ca’- ition of European powers in order to maintain her footing. The members of the House of Commons are, however, inclined to take an optimist view ef the situation and of the future, relying on the divisions and jealonsies of European powers to en- able them to maintain themselves in Egypt once they have succeeded in establishing themselves there, and calculating that should any attempt be made to disturb them they would be able to draw sufficient forces from India to enable them to bid defiance to any force Europe could bring. In other words, the Radical parliamenta- rians led by Mr. Gladstene, are adopting the Imperial policy of Disraeli, which they furiously condemned before they came into power. ENGLAND'S CHANGE OF BASE.

The change in the position of Mr. Glad- stone’s Government from one of passive- | bess to activity is ascribed to the action jtaken by Sir Charles Dilke. He strongly opposed Ear! Granville’s policy, and con- convinced the Premier that energetic wea- sures were necessary to secure British inter- ests and enable them to retain their posi- tions in the Government.

It was while he was on duty during the Afghan ,campaign of 1880 that Mr. Yates, of the Loudon World, got off a somewhat humorous story in regard to him and his regiment. It appears that the London Standard had tele- graphed to its correspondent, McPherson, in ‘the Koorum Valley with General Roberts, to proceed at once to Zululand. This telegram, by some mistake, was not sent to the correspondent, but to General Macpherson, in the Khyber Pass. The latter telegraphed backward and forward to the a of India and the War Office in

+-——_---~7.> @& oe The Markets. OATS»

The value of oats in the English market has not improved, and with the p of a bountiful harvests in France an land, there is little chance of the market advancing. Indeed a further downward tendency in the English market may at any time occur, In the Provincial market there is still a very good deman cats. In Halifax they sell from 48 to 50 cents, and in Moneton and St. John about the same figure. In Charlottetown the supply is very small, They sell at 45 cents per bushel,

POTATOES.

Potatoes are very scarce in this Province and few shipments are at present being made. Forty-five cents a bushel is the price obtained in Charlottetown, but they ‘are not quoted in Boston, Southern stock is now filling the United States mar- kets, and the prices quoted for that description of tubors is $6.00 per barrel.

EGGS, The demand for eggs in Boston is im-

‘proving, and they are quoted at from 18}

to 19 cents per dozen. They are bought here at frota 15 to 16 cents. FLOUR.

The Montreal flour market was on the 10th inst., reported in a healthy condition and five cents and ten cents better rates were obtained. The quotations then were:

A despatch to Tur Examrver from Mon- treal, to-day, reports that ‘‘the flour ma: kets jare active. Four thousand barrels have

been sold at the recent advance of 25 and 30 cents per barrel.”

FISH.

The most recent reports from Boston state there are very heavy receipts of mack- erel, and they are quoted at $5.00 per barrels. Lobsters continue at about the same price, $1.10 to $1.25 per dozen, and the demand is fair.
