Among tn were Mr. John Mason Brown, Mr. George Davie, Mr. arthur Carey, Mr. W. 0. Harris Mr. Davie improvised following song, which was sung to an air from “Patience,” by Mr. W. 0. Harris, with brillianey and power. The Post does not under- stand the technical terms used in the song, but they were pertectly intelligible to the gentle- men who heard it: King Arthur at the Round-Table.

How English Girls Are Decoyed Into | Official Precautions Against the Assas- East. sination of Tewfik Pasha. Cairo Correspondence of the New York Herald. During his visit to Egypt several years ago Gen. Sherman remarked to a prominent Egypt- jan functionary: “It ever the dynasty of Me- hemet Ali is to be overthrown it will be by Eng- land, and you Egyptians should bear in mind that England is a money-lender, with all the gteed and arrogance of that class.” Gen. Sher- man’s remark was subsequently recounted by the functionary in question to Ismail Pasha, the then Khedive. His Highness laughingly replied, with a shrag of the shoulders and between the whiffs of a cigarette: “Fidonc! Fidonc! Mon cher Pasha, vous aussi, vou etes Anglophobes!” The Khedive, nevertheless, gazed for a moment in thoughtful silence at the jeweled filagree work with which he held a delicately-tinted Sevres coffee cup; and it may be observed that the prophetic warning did not prevent a gift of diamonds, valued at nearly a 100,000, from being sent to Gen. Sherman on his return to America. Gen. Sherman's prediction seems now about to be realized. Although England attacked Egypt nominally to uphold the Khedive and make it possible for him to reign, nevertheless not a day passes but what England does some- thing to destroy the last vestige of the Khe- dive's authority, and to thus drive another nail into the coffin of the dynasty of Mehemet All. The Khedive lives in a palace surrounded by a whole regiment of British soldiers. Extraordi- nary precautions are taken to prevent his assas- sination. He sleeps in aroom the only access to which is by means of a passageway barred by four doors, each door having a different combin- ation lock and each key being intrusted toa sep- arate guardian. The countersign of the soldiers in the palace is oftenchanged two or threetimes during the same night. Secret service agents are charged with the task of keeping a watch- ful eye upon the palace of officials as well as upon each other. And perhaps in time the Khedive’s palace may bear some slight resem- blance to Yildiz Kiosk—that holy of holies of Abdul Hamid—where masked batteries of spies and secret agents lay concealed behind every shrub, screen or flower pot. Whenever the Khedive drives out the roads through which he passes are lined with gen- darmes on foot and on horseback. His carriage— usually an open Victoria—is surrounded by a dozen Circassian outriders; and, in short, all those precautions are taken by Mohammed Tewfik that are usually taken by a ruler who finds himself in the melancholy position of being hated or despised by his subjects. It was only Jast week that as the Khedive drove by a guard of the new Egyptian gendarmerie one of the gallant gendarmes, after presenting arms to his “sovereign,” dashed his rifle violently to the ground and predicated ot Mohammed Tewiik an epithet that decency here forbids_me to repro- duze. And what is far more significant, the off- cer in command of the detachment did not deem. it wise or discreet to even notice this act of gross Insubordination. I have even seer donkey boys in the streets of Cairo turn their backs at the Khedive when driving by, and make vilify- ing noises with their mouths. A curious incident happened the other day in the garden of the Ghezereh palace. where the Khedive is inthe habit of ero about after lunch. The garden is surrounded by the Nile and by very high walls, and is vigilantly guarded by both Highlanders and Circassians. The Khe- dive was walking in the shade of some palm trees, unattended and dressed as an ordinary Egyptian official (Tarboush)—black, clerically cut coat, tweed trousers and patent leather shoes. Nothing about him indicated his rank. Passing by a narrow gateway the Khedive no- ticed a tall Highlander pacing to and fro on sen- try duty. His Highness, who speaks English quite fluently, asked the sentry, ** How do you like Egypt ?”’ The Highlander—a soldier of the gallant 42d (the Black Watch), who afterward recounted to me the conversation that ensued— replied, “Got to like it pretty well, now that we are in barracks,” and, glad to find any one who could talk English, and not dreaming who his interlocutor was, the Scotchman continued the conversation by ask- ing, ‘‘What sort of a berth have you got here?” The Khedive replied, “Oh, not a bad one, I am attached to the palace.” The Highlander then continued, ‘What sort of a chap is this ere Khedive. He must be a rum ‘um from all I hear.” The Khedive, whose good nature is pro- verblal, asked, ‘What do you hear about him?” ‘The Scot repli ‘Well, as neag as I can make out, this Khedive is about the worst man out ot the whole lot.of 'em. He ain't got no sort o° courage nor manhood about him, and as soon as we get out of this old Arabl's beggars will make a sort of ‘haggis' out ot him.” The conversa- tion was at this interesting point interrupted by the Spb arabe of the guard reliet, who pre- sented arms to the Khedive, and then revealed tu the Highlander, now utterly discomfited and as red as a lobster, the fact that he had been talking to no less a personage than the successor of the Pharaohs. = ——___-e.______ Queer Coincidences. From the Whitehall Review, December 14. Mr. Browning came back from Italy in the autumn with a curious story of coincidences. The story is divided dramatically into two parts, whereof the first was enacted late in the sum- mer of last year, when Mr. Browning found himself with his sister in a remote Swiss valley on the confines of Italy. Strolling about in the evening while dinner was preparing,they paused before going in, to admire the calm and repose of the valley that lay stretched before them, when their talk suddenly turned to the subject of murder and each began to speculate on what their conduct would be if they should beso unfortunate as to finda body. I say unfortu- nate, for it is well known that in France, Switz- land and Italy the presumption of innocence is most strongly against the person lighting on a corpse, instead of, as in our law, the presump- tion being in his favor. They could hardly set- tle as to whether they should or should not give information to the authorities, and s0 escape the annoyance of being detained on their jour- ney, when they found themselyes at their inn door and dinner ready. The next morning, as they were about to resume their travels, the landlord attended with a long face to inform the poet that it would be impossible to have the two horses for his carriage, as one was wanted to bring in the body of @ man found mttrdered early that morning at the head of the valiey. Questioning him, Mr. Browning found that in all likelihood the murder had been committed after the conversation of the evening before, and that the body had been found by a man digging potatoes Just about the spot where his sister and he had stood discussing the probabil- ities of their conduct incase such an event should occur. Part one ends on the departure of the travelers behind the one horse; part two opens in the autumn of this year, when Mr. Browning paid another visit to the remote Swiss. valley, again in company with hissister. Re- membering the Incident of last year, they asked the landlord if the murderer had ever been dis- covered, when he told them no; that the man suspected (who had found the body) hadthrown himself out of his prison window, unable to bear the thought of a trial and the possibility of his wife and children in want, and had since died; and thgt it was supposed the murdered man, an Italian, had been stabbed in a quarrel by his companions, who had escaped over the frontier. Further, as’ on the previous year, dinner pre- paring, he took them to the spot where the body was discovered, and’ they found themselves standing exactly where, on very evening of the crime, they had specu- lated as to what they should do in case of such an event. To heighten the dramatic effect of the cuincidence, they learnt that no crime of yiolence had been committed in the valley for the last hundred years. A gentleman present when this story was ¢old capped it with one of a et more curious chain of coincidences. He was sabe 3 to Doncaster on business, and, turn- ing to the first sheet of the Times, was amused to see, immediately below the announcement of his wife giving birth to a son, the announce- ment that the wife of a similarly named hus- band had performed them eae kindly office on the ff} same dete. At Doncaster, in the office where his busiuess called him, he was introduced to his namesake, who, traveling down in the same carriage, had besa equally amused. Nor did the coincidence end here, fo1 the race AUCTION SALES. TO-MORROW. EES & C2, Anctoners, Ww =< Tolan ponte City Poss Office. AUCTION SALES. . STEAMERS. &e.
