A dispatch from Alexandria says the t trial of Mirzin before Minister , Mayn- 1 krd , resulting in the conviction of the 1I I prisoner and hia sentence to death , fur the murder .of Daha Pasha" , occupied several daye. The trial attracted rowds' of people. Daha Pasha was a Syrian , who occu pied the position of legal advisor to the Egyptian member , of finance. The 3x-khedlve consulate poaaesiing no prison of its own , Mirzan , who is a naturalized American citizeu , has been xmfined in the army prison since the murder , which took place in Cairo last ; summer. The reason of the unusual lelay in bringing the accused to jus tice is difficult to explain. The fact Da man's being tried by a single indi- ridual on the charge -murder is much criticised here.

Democratic Vanguard. CINCINNATI , June 17 , 1 a. in. The vanguard of the democratic na tional convention has begun to arrive. Two or three 'members of the dcino- craticnationat : convention are in toiru , an'd a few outside newspaper men. The most important arrival yesterday was Mayor F. O. Prince , of Boston , Eccretary of the democratic national committee. Ho arrived last evening , arid put up at .the Grand hotel , where the national commiteo has its head quarters , and after undergoing a few interviews went off to the Queen City club , where he was entertained lest ight. "VTho most Interesting topics of spec ulation among the few politicians nowhere hero are of the intentions of Tilden and Seymour. For some reason , a rumor became widely circulated , and has gained great credence , that Tilden has positively decided not to bo a candidate and his name will not be be fore the convention. Careful in quiry , hpwover , failed to find any authentic basis for this rumor , and the Intentions of Tilden appear to bo as' much a mystery as 'heretofore. . , TILDEN'S PLANS. j fThe most reliable information which has been obtained concerning Tilden's intentions was'obtained to-night from Secretary Prince , who has had several interviews with Tilden and has been one of jthe'moat active workmen in the movement of Tildou's friends to indues Tilden.'a. withdrawal in the convention. < Mr. Prince said he had no word from Tilden , and'could "only surmise what he would- . He felt assured for the best" possible reasons , a few days-ago , that his "name would not bo presented to the convention , and his candidacy would in some way be withdrawn on authority before a bal lot was taken. , TOO MUCH TAFFY. Since then , however , some 'ill-ad- vlsed-frioiyls-liad got Mr. Tilden's ear , and evidently ' " "made him believe he was the greatest man , in the country , and the onlyjone fit io be , the candi date - of sJfcbV democratic party ; and Tildoaliad becorae'impressed with an idea ofhis importance , and that now there 'was ' little.doubt that he would 1 preia for the..nomination. . . "But , " added Mr. Prince , "you may be sure we shall sttckio the two-thirds rule , and as I can find but nine states for him In the careful canvass I have made , I don't ice how he can be nom- , lnated'v ; .
