It is believed that the Cabinet is in favor of an expedition from Suakim. In view of the likelihood of a joint naval and military expedition up the Nile. the Admiralty has directed Admiral Bay to survey the upper waters of that stream no as to learn whether it would be feasible to send gunboate thither. Several naval oflieere have left Alexandria to carry out_the survey. Nobody knows whether General Graham will be allowed to advance. Precious time has been wasted in waiting for General Gordon’s opinion. The Radicals have im- proved the wcasion by attacking Colonel Burnaby for preferring to shoot Arabs rather than to be shot by them.

The future of Gen- eral Gordon in any case is very uncertain. as the Government cannot make up its mind whether to desert him or to send him English troops.

Until the issue of the battle between General Gordon and the }Arab army on the 16th is known the anxiety for his fate will continue unabated. But even i! General Gordon was successful ‘in that engagement, it is now generally believed that his mission is a failure. The rescue of the Egyptian garrisone irom the Soudan is new admittedtobeimpossible without the intervention of the English forces. The absence 0! advices from Berber is a source of (ear that General Gordon was repulsed in the battle of the 16th. He is hemmed in at Khartoum on all sides, and maintains his position in the expectation that an English army will speedily appear to give him suoeor. It is reported that at the Cabinet meeting to-day, despatohee trom Cairo were considered which stated that immediate danger oi the fall of Khartoum was over, but Bir Evelyn Baring. the British Minister at Cairo, urges the dispatch of a British contingent to Berber. either by way of Korosko or t_v_vo sguadrons from the troops at Suakim. n_ __-.__-. -R The first. important news from Egypt of the week eppeere to-dey in e deepetch to the Time: from Khartoum, showing um Gen.

The palace was superbly decorated and flooded with light. Two thousand guests responded to the invitation issued by the prefect of the palace and the lady in waiting in the names of the King and Queen. The guests went away delighted with the kindly warmth and hospitality of their reception. Carriages began to roll into the Quirinal -court yard esearly as 9.80. At 10 rcciscly the stirring strains of the “ Royal arch "were heard in the bell-room. heralding the arrival of King Humbert. Queen Margaret and the nobles and ladies of the royal household. Tne Queen. as usual. looked radiant as she entered. smiling and bowing graciously to her guests, and took her place in the quad- rille of honor with Baron von Kendall. the German Ambassador.facing Mlle.Minghetti ., . , and Baron d’Uxhull. She wore a simple: "‘ but costly dress of white moire, ending in a long train and very decolletemhich gave the Herald correspondent. who was standing just behind her. an opportunity of once more admiring her lovely neck and shoqu ders. Round her throat she had a neck, . lace formed by eight rows of flaw-" less pearls. A triple chain of emeralds and brilliants glittered in her corsage. Two diamond butterflies did duty as shoulder knots. and her shapely head was crowned by a diadem of pearls and diamonds given her at Christmas by King Humbert. Be- tween the dances the Queen. attended by the Princess di Triggianc. Countess di Santa Flora. and Marchese di Villamarina. three belles of the Italian Court. glided from room to room. chatting unafiectedly with the guests and singling out the most retiring for marks of special favor. Prin- cessTriggiano. an American, like many ornaments of the court. hardly less dazzling than the Queen, wore a white dress decollete, diamond necklace and a diamond tiara. Another American lady of more mature age and no figure worth ' speaking of attracted both envy and ad- miration by the beauty of her pale pink dress. almost coveredwith seed pearls. The Marchesa Villamarina and Countess Santa Flora wore rich brocades and had enough diamonds in their hair to keep six German princelings in comfort for a lifetime. Among other costumes which deserve men- tion were those of Mme. Pierantoni- Mancini. red satin and tissu d’acier; Mme.
