An interview with Lord Dufferin, the Brit- 1 Ambassador, on the 23rd, explains the origin of the Egyptian revolt, with the object of showing that the Sultan had not contributed thereto. He alse declared that the Sultan re- garded Arabi Pacha as a rebel. He paid Lord Dufferin, the British Ambassador, a second visit on the 24th. Lord Dufferin an nounced that he had received instructions from his government to sign the draft of the military convention as agreed upon between himself and Said Pacha on the 18th inst., and which had been left as a subject for further consideration. Mr. Sanderson, Secretary to the British Legation, had previously conveyed the same intelligence to the Sultan at the palace, Theioterviews between the Sheik- ul-{slam and Lord Dufferin, it is understood, have helped to clear the situation. Lord ivufferin gave the Shiek reassuring explana- tiens in regard to the intentions of Envland. Lord Dufferin had an interview with Said Pacha.on the night of the 24th,, when it was to be hoped, the military convention would be detinitely concluded. er Koyptien Crops Suffering | Spe cial to the Examiner.

An Ismailia despatch states that Arabi’s soldiers doubtiess are suffering great hard- ships, as those captured by the British look worn and feeble. A despatch from Constantinople states that Said Pasha and Assim Pasha, the Turkish delegates to the Conference, yes- terday advanced fresh demands relative to the military convention with England, to the effect that the Turks should land at Alexandria, and that the proclamation re- iative to Arabi, instead of declaring hima revel, should summon him to submit to he Khedive.
