THE WAR IN EGYPT. l Tel-el-Kebir Carried By Assault. I The long expected great battle has at length been fought, and, as antici- pated, Arabi's hosts were scattered like chaff before the wind. On Tuesday morning .Sir Garnet Wolseley, accom- panied by the Duke of Connaught and Generals Lowe, Willis and Wilkinson made a personal reconnaissance, and de- rived so clear an idea of the enemy's position and defences that it was deter. mined to delay .the attack no longer than was necessary to make prepara- tions for it. Accordingly, at midnight the British troops struck their tents and began to advance, the line of battle extending three miles south and north of the fresh \vater canal. The artillery consisted of seven batteries, with two batteries of horse artillery and the naval brigade's forty pounders, but the num- ber of troops engaged is not stated. The attack on Tcl-cl-Kebir began at 4:45 on Wednesday morning. and the British got within a mile of the defenc- es before the Egyptians opened fire up- on them. The main effort was directed against the enemy’s extreme left flank, four miles north of the railway; but the British advanced all along the line with the utmost enthusiasm, and in twenty minutes after the first shot was fired the place was taken with a rush, theEgyptinus losing 2,000 killed, 3,000 prisoners and forty guns, the British loss being comparatively trifling. The enemy immediately took to flight, and were hotly pursued by the Indian cav- alry on the south and by the British cavalry on the north of Cairo, and the account. says that their retreat in this direction was cut off. The demorilizaâ€" tiouof Arubi‘s army is complete, and his infantry is flying towards the desert. The taking of Tel-el-Kebir caused great. joy in Alexandria, and preparations were being made for extensive demon- strations on Wednesday night. LATEST.â€"At‘abl was captured at Cai- ro, and the war is virtually over. The Trent Valley Canal. We notice by the Post that a party of surveyors went north a few days ago to run over the proposed route of the Trent. Valley Canal from Balsam Lake to Lake Simcoc; and the Woodville Advocate's Bolsover correspondent says that an engineer was in that: village last: week, taking a view of the section thro' which the canal is to run, and his re- ports are favourable to its excavation. The correspondent adds that “ the head engineer is to commence the survey next week at Balsam Lake and run straight to Lake Simone. This is good news, as it shows that the operations on the canal are not to be confined to the works already tendered for; but. the people of Feuelon Falls, as well asthose of other interested localities, are impa- tient to hear that the tenders have been opened and the contracts let. The de- lay appears to be occasioned by the ab- sence of Sir Charles Tapper, who is again in England; but almost immedi- ately after his return, which will proba- bly be at an early date, we may expect to see the cutting for the lock commenc- ed; and as work of that kind can be done as well during an ordinary winter as in summer, there is no particular no cessity for extraordinary haste in set- ting about it. Storm and Accident. Thursday of this week was terribly stormyâ€"so bad the: the waves on our little lakes were sufiiciently formidable to render navigation, even by steam- bosts, positively dangerous, and the Co- bomuk, which was to have gone to the village after which she was named with the Fcuelou Falls band excursion, very prudently refrained from going any further than Rosedsle, and had some little trouble in getting home at night. No doubt we shall bear before long that a good deal of damage was done moug the ruins. escaped with a wounded scalp under whose care he now lies. Condensed ews. â€".\Ir.

A the house. -â€"John McRae d; Co.'s store at Ben- verton was recently entered by burglars, who blow open the safe, from which they took "one gold and six silver watch- es, but the money had all been removed the night previous. .â€"'I‘he editor and proprietor of the Mtllbrook Messenger has a splendid gar- den, but his neighbour's hens damage the fruit thereof to such an extent. that, in the bitterness of his heart, he gives fair warningâ€"it ought to be fo'wl warn? tugâ€"that he will do something desper- ate if the feathered dcpredators again trespass on his premises. â€"â€"At Parry Sound, a few days ago, a large deer, dogs, entered the village and rushed through the streets, back yards and gar- dens. Nearly all the population joined in the boat, which was ended‘by the deer jumping into the river among a number of logs, where some one knock- ed it on the head and killed it, but the carcass sunk and could not. be found. â€"Incendinries are busy in Belleville. and are credited with two fires which took place on the morning of the 9th lost. The first destroyed wasa small sta- ble valued at $50, and while the fire- men were working'at it. flames were seen issuing from Lake A; Jenkins’ liv- cry stable only two blocks distant. In spite of all that, could be done the buildings and their entire contentsâ€"in- cluding three horsesâ€"were totally de- stroyed. Loss about 86,000. Insured for $4,000. â€"A horseshoe got into the cylinder of a threshing machine while working on the farm of Mr. Charles Osborne, about five miles west of Bowmauville, tearing the machine to pieces. The occurrence created so much noise that the horses attached to the power ran away, badly damaging that part of the’ machinery. Mr. Charles Osborne’s hand was seriously mangled, and Mr. Richard Osborne, Sr. was also badly hurt. It is supposed that a horse employed to tread the grain in the mow lost the shoe that caused the disaster. â€"At Colborae a few days ago a mother spread a piece of bread with butter and then covered it with Paris grecnpintendiug to poison some annoy- ingcats. She carelessly left. the bread thus prepared on the kitchen table and went out of~the house on other business. Her child, a girl of three years, found the poisoned bread and ate it. When the mother returned and discovered what had occurred she was crazed with fright, and ran for the nearest. physi ciao. Fortunately the little one began tovomit soon after eating the bread, and under the care of the doctor is re- covering. â€"The most destructive fire that has occurred in Pcterborough for several years broke out in a store-room at the rear of Fitzgerald's factory a little be- fore 1 o'clock last Saturday morning. All the buildings and some others, mak- ing a total of nine, were utterly destroy- ed and several more were damaged. Mr. Fingerald's loss is estimated at $l2.000, just. double his insurance. The majority of the other buildings were not insured at all, and in no case was there enough to covcr the loss. While the tires were in progress two others were discoveredâ€"one in a box car on the Midland Railway track, near Hall‘s warehouse, and the other in l moose smoke-stack, which tattered and l fell on to the roof of the engine room, i breaking into tyo pieces.

ABOUT AGAIN.â€"Youug Andrew Mc- Farland, of this village, who broke both bones of his left leg, about six weeks ago, while sliding down the end of the iron bridge, walked with a crutch and a stick as far as his uncle's store on Wednesday lust. I-lis leg is getting on nicely, and has not pained him at all for the past fortnight. The location of the break is marked by a lump, which may possibly remain, but he is rapidly recovering from his lameness, which will no doubt soon entirely disappear. Tun CATHOLIC Promoâ€"Thursday next, the 2lst inst, is the day appoint- ed for Father McEvay's picnic at: West Buy, and from all accounts there is like- ly to be an immense attendance. The Catholics are equalled by few and surâ€" passed by none in'zealous efforts for the support of'their churches, and we there- for predict that this year's picnic, like all preceding ones, will be a great suc- cess. The programme of sports and amusements is varied and attractive, and the prizes offered are exceedingly liberal. Tim Bataanâ€"The work of raising the iron bridge across the river in this village has at last been safely accom- plislted, and tho-foot-pnth on the west side will probably have been replaced in position by the time this is in the hands of our nearest renders. But a good deal yet remains to be done, as only the extremities of the piers upon which the structure rests have been built to the required height, and all the intervening spaces under the joists (which at present rest on wooden blocks) will have to be filled in with stone, which will take at least two, and perhaps three, weeks to accomplish. New Horst..â€"Mr. Wm. Routly has nuumber of men at work laying the stone foundation for a. new hotel south of the river, on the site of the one he formerly owned, which was destroyed by fire four or five years ago. The new building is to be of brick, two stories high, and will be well and substantially constructed and neatly finished. The main part is to measure 30x36 feet, and the addition containing the kitchen kc. 20x26 feet. As soon as the foundation is finished a large and of bricklayers will be put on, in order to have the walls up and the roof on in the short- est. possible time, as Mr. Bentley ex- pects to have it ready for a tenant by the first of January next. The con- tract for the brick-work has not yet been let. A DItL‘NKEN Datvr‘.a.â€"On Wednes- Iday morning two young men came to ' the Falls (from Bobcaygeon, we heard) ,in a buggy drawn by a nice-looking nearly black horse, and the driver was so much under the influence of liquor that it was a wonder he did not meet with an accident.

With the ex- ception of some carpets and window blinds, which were purchased from Mr. Ingram, everything is entirely new, and some bedrooms which Mr. Sim son in- vited us to peep inho were as good] furnished as any one need wish. He tells us that he alreadyhis as many boarders asbe can accommodate, and has been so liberally patronized since he came to the Falls that he has sun; guiue hopes of doing a profitable busi- ness. A Courursr.â€"Oue of our Bnry's Green subscribe writes to us complain~ log that on So udny last the mail bag delivered at, that office contained no Gazette, Globe, Western Advertiser nor Montreal Witness. The absence of the Gazette is not to be wondered at, as, in consequence of the rush ofjob printing, it was not printed until Saturday even- ing. Why the other papers wore de- layed we of course cannot tell ; but we have a suspicion that there have been more irregularities in the transmission of newspapers since the postage on them was abolished than there was previously. Talking of mails, it is a great annoy- ance that. there is no direct postal com- munication between this village and Rosedalo, and a great many people would be pleased to see it re-estnblished â€"for it existed once and was abolished. NEW PAPERâ€"“'8 have received the first number of the Free Press, a paper just started at Midland by Mr. P. J. Ryan, for many years manager and sub-editor of the Lindsay Warden The Free Press, which will be independent in politics, is a 28-columu sheet, nicely printed with new type and contains a good deal of local news and a very fair share of advertising. Whether it is to be a success depends less upon the pro- prietor than upon the people to whom it looks for support. Mr. Ryan is quite competent and undoubtedly willing to issue a paper worthy of support, and if the inhabitants of the “city " and its vicinity atronize him liberally from the start. e will be able tozdo so; but if, unfortunately, the majority of them wait " to see what the paper is like " until his little capital is eaten up b expenses, the Free Press will inevitably deteriorate instead of improve, and the sole blame will rest on a too cautious and parsimonious public. KouL RABi.â€"-lllr. Bellinghnm, whose garden is on Fidler's bill, was surprised to find in his cabbage plot several spec- imens of a plant which was new to him; and last Tuesday he sent one of them down to the village to see if any person could name it, but in vain. As we sus- pected, it. was a kohl rabi, a cut and description of which are to be found in the Cultivator’s Guide, published by Mad. A. Simmers, scedsman, of To- ronto. The vegetable is a cross between a cabbage and a turnip, and hears a close resemblance to the latter, but. the bulb of the root, which is green, grows above ground. ‘ to the turnip in nutritive value, and is eagerly eaten by all kinds of stock. Many years ago Mr. John Kuowlsou, of Lindsay, exhibited one at an agri- cultural show in the town hall, and no one but himself knew what it was. A few kohl rabi seeds no doubt. got ac- cidentally mixed in the package of cab- bage seed purchased by Mr. Bellingham. McAu'rnuu's BLOCK.-â€" The brick addition, 32x66 feet, at the rear of Me- Arthur's block, is rapidly approaching completion ; it will be roofed next Mon- day and, it is expected, finished by the end of the week. Messrs. Jarvis & Mc- Dougall's dry goods store will run the whole depth of the block, and the two counters will measure 85 feet each, less about five feet for openings.

General Wolseley's arrangements may be described as being under the microscope. The public scrutinize close- ly and remark upon the systematic con- tradictious between official telegrams and those to the newspapers. The Brit- ish forces have lately been increased at Alexandria, but. public anxiety is not alloyed. The enemy's boldness and the attitude of the inhabitants provoke apprehension. The Anglo-Turkish Con- vention has become a standing joke. The most that can come ofthe Turkish occupation is to mark the Sultan’s sov- ereignty. The British are more oppos- ed than ever to Turkish action. The conduct. of Russia causes suspicion in diplomatic circles. The co-operation of France has led Bismarck to abandon his original disposition in favour of a congress for the scttlemeutof the Elyp- cian question. The Chancellor fears that the congress might. become the Inc- dium of an alliance between Russia and France. in the direction of absorbing England into an Austro-Gcrmnn alliance. Ger- many will not. oppose England provided she establishes order, even though it makes changes in the existing treaties. A Go. as Belli. TIIB TRICOLOUR PLANTED ON BRITISH TERRITORY. ST.Jonx's, Nfld., Supt. 9.â€"vIntclli- genco was received here last night of an outrage of almost unparalleled daring committed on British territory by the commander of a French naval const- gunrd. Having dropped anchor off Jackson's Arm. situated on the north- west. side of White Buy, he went on shore with a company of marines and hoisted the French tricolour. On Cum- berlaud Stage he erected two temporary monuments, one on each side of the Arm, emblazoned with the insignia of France. The greatest indignation has been aroused by this unwarranted not.

Messrs. Brandon & McDongnll intend to remove the partition which divides their present store into two parts and extend the counters and shelving the whole length, as the addition now be- ing built will afford plenty of room for molasses, vinegar and sugar barrels, and other articles usually kept in a back room. For some time past they have been too crowded for comfort, but in a few days they will have all the accom- modation they require, at. least for the present. An American Review. NEW YORK, Sept. 10,â€"The Tribune's London special snys:â€"The daily ex- pectation of General Wolsclcy's advance absorbs public interest. The latest ac- counts indicate that the coming fight may decide the campaign. According to General Wolselcy's information no substantial defences exist between the front and Cairo, except at Tel-elâ€"Kebir. Owingâ€" to transport defects General Wolseley is unable to profit by a rapid advance from Ismailia to Kassassin. Military men consider that had the in- itial movement been followed with promptitudo the campaign would be shortened. Arnbi's lines at Tel-cl-Kebir are enormously strong. They extend eight miles, and are defended by black regiments, twelve or fifteen thousand regulars, the same number of irregulnrs. fifty guns, and a few cavalry. General Wolseley has fourteen thousand men at the front, and three or four thousand reserves in the rear. Reconnaissance-s show the enemy to be in an excellent situation. If they are not overtaken by a panic the fight will be very severe, and may last two days. Some mystery attaches to the movements of the High- lsad Brigade, who were kept on ship- board at Ismsilin, and part of the In- dian contingent, of whose precise whore- sbouts there is no information.

Coretta] __._--. A Generous Gift. (From the Lindsay Post.) An event eminently pleasing to the congregation of the Baptist church took place after prayer meeting at the church on Wednesday evening. For some time past. a debt of some 81,500 has remain- ed on the parsonage and lot on which it was built. Mr. George Matthews had a mortgage for the amount. On Wednesday evening after the service Mr. Matthews generously presented the church with the mortgage in full of all incuinbranccs. The members of the church were exceedingly gratified, and the following resolution was passed, having been moved by Mr. Mitchellâ€" “ Whereas Brother Matthews has kind- llyhnnded over to the trustees of the .indsny Baptist church the lease held by him of the parsonage and lot on which it stands as security for money which he paid for the sumo, thereby cancelling a debt of some 81,500 owed him by the church. Be it therofore resolved, that we as a church tender to Brother Matthews our sincere and hear- ty thanks for this generous manifesta- tion of Christian charity." A pleasant hour was then spent and refreshments served, followed by music and singing. A Scoundrelly Justice. - BOSTON. Sept. 8.-â€"Justico Willis, of Putnam, Conn., arrested at.
