The toiling ones 'were and are industrious, persevering and patient; the aristocracy are insolent, op- presive and cruel and priesteraft has alwpys been exercised with that cunning: duplicity and intrigue for whioh the class has always been famous or rather infamous. Stupid ralers and an extravagant tyrannical aristocracy have been the curse of Egypt. as they are in all lands in which they are found, but tho toiling : ones are in no way to blame. The 'wicked rulers and national vultures lived faster than their means could _ sustain, they built magnificent . thavems for keeping their several women and palaces to satisfy their "pride were construcled regardless of cost, and foreign nations, Britain, | ¥! Frauce and ltlay, also Jewish and Greek usurers lent them money in large sums at ruinous interest. This thing went on until the nation became farely swallowed up in debt and the sons of toil who got mone of the spoils were taxed to death 10 keep the in: terest ap but 'sould not do it.

This the Egypt- ian Assembly wisely refused fo do, two foreigners and the partion. for whom they were collecting on one side and the Egyptians on the other. Barly in February Cherif Pusha, the Eedive's obief minister resigned and Arabi Boy was-galiod to the minist- ary as minister of war. Now the eontest began in earnest the Egypt- ians led by Arabi Bey, on one side Bogland and France and other forigners on the other. Early in May the FrenchConsul-General atiempted to work a plan which would drive Arabi and the other leaders of the Egyptian national party out of the country ; but that too failed and the contest continued. The national party offered to givesufficiont secur- ity for the payment of all legitimate foreign debts but thoy wish Egyptian affairs managed by Egyptians alone. Britain and France especially the latter, would not listen to any such proposition. France was the princ- ipal tax collector, her principal mission in Egypt befog in the in- terest of foreign bond holders; French intrigue sucueeded in getting Britain into this guilty partnership of financial agency.

"SThe Whitby, Port Perry and Lind- say Railway made a grand change for the better and fell into excellent com- pany when it cast in its fortune with and became part and parcel of the Midland Railway amalgamation. The improvement is marked and impor- tant all over the line, courteous trea . ment, prompt attention and obliging manners are now the rule with the officials and every necessary effort is being put forth for the further accom. modation of the public, not only in the running of the trains but in the in* creased convenience and comfort pro- vided at the several stations. Plat- forms thoroughly repaired, extend: or altered wherever required for pub- lic comfort and convenience, proper waiting rooms have also been supplied wherever lacking. The entire Mid- land system is now in magniffoent working order and highly creditable to all concerned, The Port Perry station has come in for its full share of the repairs, a and the station is now all that could be desired and we question very much if there is a more efficient, prompt and corteous station master on the Mid- lators tous, | land system than Mr. Coram, the medan are y But te partnership went on and Britain got completely involved.-- But matters could not rest here; Arabi Bey a daring leader at the head of the 'national party would soon make the country » hot for foreign control. Britain and France realizing this fact put forth increased eftorts to frighten the Egyptians into subjection, by bringing powerful fleets of war ships into the Egyptian ports. The Egyp- tians were not so easily frightened however, and ad the war ships became more threatening the nationalists pre- pared to resist them by strengthening their fortifications and now comes the tug ot war. Britain and France must either withdraw and allow the Egyp- tians to control their own affairs as they had a perfect right to do or they must fight a people with whom they have no legitimate eanse of quarrel. -- France only wanted money and théy didnot wish to fight they only wished to overawe the Egyptians and keep them paying away. Britain on the other hand knew that a united Egypt might hamper her in the matter of the Suez Canal, her highway to India, determined to fight and on Egypt's refusal to surrender her forts the British Admiral attacked and destroy- the principal forts in one day.

A Termieie StrercE or Farra.--A Toronto organ tells us that since England has got into a scrape with Egypt "it is the duty of loyal subjects to think that she has entéred it in a righteous cause."
