Omdurman, opposite Khartoum, on the Nile, Nubia, Sept. 2 (by camel post to Nasri) —The sirdar, General Sir Hererbt Kitchener, with the Khalifa’s black standard, captured during the battle, entered Omdur- man, the capital of Mahdiam, at 4 o'clock thia afternoon, at the head of the Anglo-Egyptian column, after completely routing the dervishes and dealing a death blow to Mab- diam.
