The tight oceurred near the Nile. a few miles bove Dalka Island. The Arahs had for- fi-d the pass, and hai but a small fort on 1e left tank of the river. Karle’s forces reached the pass they were subjected to a heavy fire from field guus which the Arabs had placed in commanding positions. Gen. Earle bad no artillery and commanded his troops te charge. It was more of a scramble than charge, but the Arabs were driven from th heights at the point of the bayonet, and fell back towards the river. All that there remained to be captured was a liitl fort on the river bark. As_ the British colomn advanced it was met by a steady and well-dirce'ed fire from bebind sand and mattings which composed the Arab fort, and many men of the attacking party were killed.

Gen. Earle aga‘n ordered his men to charge, and put himself at the head of the eclump. Ele was killed during this charge. The fort wis eventual'y captured. But at i terrible cost. three cfiivers and eight men and thirty-five wounded,

ANOTHER ACCOUNT. CHARGE OF THE BLACK WATCH,

Another account saya: After the British forces had succeeded in completely sur- seunding the enemy’s position Tuesday morning, Gen. Earle commanded the Black Watch regiment to carry enemy's work at the point of the bayonet. The regiment responded gallantly to this command. The pipes struck up, and with inspiring cheers the moved forward with a steadineys and valor, which called forth expressions of admiration from Gen. Earle. From loop- holes in the enemy’s works rifle puffs shot out continuously. But the Biack Watch kept bravely advancing. They scaled the difficult rocks which lay in their path, and drove the rebela from their shelter at the point of the bayonet.

Unhappily Gen. Earle fell at this point, as he was gallantly leading his troops to victory. In the meantime the cavalry pushed beyond the scene of contest and captured the enemy's camp, three miles to the reac of their eutrenched position This mance ivering was accomplished before the Biack Watch had succeeded in carrying the main porition. While the main attack was being delivered, two companies of the South Staffordshire Regiment were direc’ed to seize a high rocky hill which the Arab riflemen were stoutly defending. The British sprang boldly to the charge, but the enemy cluug desperately to their position, and disputed the ground inch by inch.

GORDON'S FATE STILL IN DOUBT.

Wolseley telegraphs again to-day from Korti to the Government that no reliable particulars about the fate of Gordon have been received. He assures the ministry that the press reports are based on rumors. He hassent orders to Col. Buller, com- mander at Gubat to send a steamer up the Nile on a reconno‘sance towards Khartoum.

The court met yesierday for the purpose of delivering judgmen's and hea’ ing motions for new trials. The Chief Justice, Mr Justice Peters and Mr. Justice Hensley, presiding

Alexiuder Crozier vs. James F, White.— This case arose under the 80'h Section of the Scott Act. The defendant who resides st Alberton, at the request of one Oliver, gave him a glass of hyuor on the day of holding the Scott Act election in Prince County, in February, 1884. The plaintiff sued the defendant for the $100 penalty, and on the the trial the jury found the facts against the defendant upon which finding th: plaintiff asked for judgment. The defendant opposed the motion on the ground that the! liquor, before the defendant could be con- | victed, ought to have been given at a hotel’ or tavern, Or a place of a similar kind. | The plaintiff, on the other hand, contended that the giving of the liquor was the offence, not the giving of it at a particular kind of place, and it made no difference where it was given. The case was very fully argyed on the first day of the present term by Mr Hodgson. Q. C., for the plaintiff, and Mr. Davies, Q. C., for the defendant. Judg- men: was yesterday given by the Court, who unanimously decided in favor of the plaintiff, and ordered the defendant to pay $100 fine and costs, or three months’ im- prisonment.

Joseph Lantz vs. Philip F. Dugay and another—-Tried this term ; verdict found for plaintiff Mr. Blanchard, for defend- ant, obtained a rule nisi for a new trial.

Donald C. Martin and anovher execu- tors of Walker vs. Joseph M:Donald— Tried at present term, when verdict was | found for plaintiff. Mr. McLerd, Q@ C., | for defendant, obtained a rule nisi for non-| suit.

Court then adjourned until to-morrow at | 11 o’vlock.
