Tinman TUOOPS ALE'XANDUIA , July 12. The bom bardment was not renewed at 7:10 : a. m There are as yet no signs of the renewal of the bombardment , The ironclads have not yet entered Mio in ner harbor. The t < ca is very rough and the weather is very foggy. NOON.-Tho British Hoot has been in position and for some time n gen eral fire upon the forts has been going on. Not an Alexandrian battery is. now replying to the English firo. Tlio batteries seem to bo all perfectly silenced. 12:05 : p. M. A picked party of marines from the Invincible has just boon landed. They met with no op position. They went directly to Fort Meks and there burst tluco guns and spiked three more. 12:20 : P. sr. The marines are still on shore and are at work around Fort Meks. No signs of a land fight have yet been shown , The Invincible has the marines well covered , and should the Egyptians attack them a terrible slaughter will ensue. A. FLAG OF TllUCE. 2j . a > > A flag of. truce has just "been rflB"\i 'Dvel'Alexandria.It lias been recognized by Admiral Seymour , and a flag has been hoisted in reply. In answer to the admiral's signal a vessel under truce is approaching the admiral's ship frfcm the city. THE CANAL QUKSTION. All flags of the fleet are at half mast. All Enulish marines killed during the bombardment were buried ceremoni ously in the sea. The closing of the Suez canal ia as suming serious importance. Not a vessel lias passed for two days now. THE SULTAN'S UEQUEST. CONSTANTINOPLE , July 12. The sul tan informed "Lord Dull'erin to-day that Mueurus Pasha , Turkish ambas sador to England , reports that when ho presented the oultan's request that England stop the bombardment , Earl Granville replied that England could not now st > ip , and hat England felt compelled to continue so long as I he eastern question continued in its present unsettled ptato. The sultan's statement to Lrd Duflerin is causing suspicion that ho is securing from England ollicial statements for some ulterior purpose. OLADSTONE'H STATKMBNT.

Alexandria was undertaken solely for the protection of the British fleet within thu harbor , and to suppress the military tyranny existing in Alexan dria , and which not only was oppress ing the people and menacing the fleet , but wnich existed in defiance nf the Bultan'e wishes.

Twelve houses have already eon destroyed , and twenty persons dlled have boon found under the . ruins. Scores of people have been [ ivounded. THE VLKKT AND THE WHIPPED. LONDON , July 12. The latest from Alexandria says that the gunboat sent 'rom the forts with a flag of rruco has ' oturned from Seymour's fUg ship. Hio fleet is under way , the conso- luenco of rising wind and heavy well. The queen telegraphed in- uiries as to the condition of the vouudod. t A dispatch from Berlin Bays it ia reported there that Arab ! Bey is ? n listing troops by the thousands. Tirr. DURNINO cm . ALEXANMUA , July 13 , 1 a. m. Tlio fires in the city nro increasing ii fierceness and extent. They Are tup posed to bo incendiary and not duo to the firing of the ( loot. No shot V s sent into the town to-day. If the truce fails , general cannonade will bo resumed sumed this morning. Anarchy pre vail * unions the Egyptian soldiery. The English gunboat sent to otcer tnin the meaning of the white fl.u ? has returned. The Egyptians refused to surrender. The European quarter is burned , hundreds have boon killed in the streets and two thousand were killed in the forts during the bom bardmont. The fleet has entiro'y suspended action. There is evidently no government to deal with. The city is given over to anarchy pi i luge. _ THE TOWN. WHAT UEMA1NS 01' A CAPITAL OF TUB WOULD. Chicago Ttibuno. Modern Alexandria occupies only part of the site of its predecessor , be mq chiefly built on the isthmus that connects what wns once the classic island of Pharos with the mainland , an which the old city stood. Sueces sivo alluvial deposits have widened this mole the ancient lluptastndium into n broad neck of land , the sea ward end of which is occupied by the palace of llas-ol-Toon , thonrsennl , nud several other government building * , after which , mainland ward , comes the modern town E.ist and west of this peninsula is the two harbor. " , called THE NEW ANII OLD POUTS. The former of those , being completely exposed to the north ninds and in cumbered with rocks und shoals , has long boon disused except by small nu tivo craft , though it was not till the beginning of tlio present century that thu much larger and safer western harbor nas thrown open to Christian vessels. This latter is ( situated at thu northeast end of the bay , adjoining the southern and western sidue of the city in u nearly semi-circular form , and extending froin the pilucu qf Itis- el-Teen , by the arsenal dock , to the terminus of the Cairo rail way at Cabari. THI : OLD Linimiou.su stilr occupies the site of the ancient Pharos , on n rocky projection Btrotch- ing northeast into thu entrance of the new port , but in 1842 , after the opening of the old harbor to Chris tian shipping , its distance from thu latter and the lowncss of its light in duced Mehomot AH to build a now tower on Eunostuo ( now called ll.is-el- Teen ) Point , ut the southwestern ex- trtmity of the peninsula , whence a 20 second revolving light of the first class , since erected by the khedtvo , flashes its friendly warning twenty miles out at sea. Nearly a milo be hind this stands : THE VJCEUEOAL PALACE , built by Mehemet Ali , to whoso ambi tion is also duo the line arsenal that forms the next principal object of in terest between the peninsula and the modern town. The development of this last has been mainly oajtwarcta , tOwardii'tlid'Tlamich tiUnrcy fltaljPrv- , which only seven , years ago lay for outside the city , but is now connected with it by fine rows of boulovard-liki houses , lot out in shops below am flats nbovo , at rents little below the average of similar buildings in Paris. In 'this direction , too , an admirable road along the Mahmoudioh canal ut tracts on Fridays nnd otlior fete days f crowds of private carriages , many of , which might figure in the Boiu or Hyde Park. Of the whole city , in- j deed , it may bo said that , although t hTILL "PIEIIALD , " 8 ao Eliot "Warburton found it a quarter * of a cPntury ago -"onu-half Europe , with its regular houses , tall und white , and stiff ; the other half Oriental , witii its mud-colored buildings and terraced roofs , varied with fat mosques and lean minarets"--the municipal im provements ofTdcI'Ml by 'ho ' khedive have in respect i lii"it..iig , paving , police , und clonnln ess uiiM-d the largo Frank quarter otipuci.iliy to n level with nioat first-class French and Eng lish towns , and placed it half a century uhead of oven thu Christian faubourg of Constantinople. THE HA.KBOR. y DESCKiniON OK THE THEATEIl 01' i WAH. The modern harbor of Alexandria , in which the trade of the port is now carried on , lies within tlio upper urvo of a bay foimod by the two pro ectint ; headlands of Ilin-ul-Tecn on .ho northeast undCipo Adjemi and Marabout Island on the southwest , ind measuring six miles in length by in avera o of two in breadth. It is aildlockod on every ride nxcept one- he southwest. The wind from this lirection is , however , the prevailing mo during eight or nine months of ho year , and from time immemorial ho "sea" thus occasioned has aeri- nisly impeded tlio loading and din- ihargaof vessels in the roidatead by itono lighters , as the custom has hitli- irto been. The importance of remo- f lying this great drawback on the con- 'enionco of his oliief port has long een ft-It by the khedive , but it was ' lot till the threatened rivalry of the uez canal had emphasized the neces- ity that ho finally decided on carry- rig out a work of such magnitude and est Accordingly , in 1870 , a con- rast was entered into with Messrs. ireenleaf it Co. , an eminent English inn , for the construction of A OltEAT IIUBAKWATEH , .11 inner harbor mole and a line of uays , which should together afford tu ho requisite shelter and uccommoda- tuat ion need by the growing trade of the at ho port , After eomo months spout in ' ho necessary preparations the work ras begun in the spring of 1871 , r'hen the khedive in porion laid the oundation stone. Since then the riginal plan has boon considerably nodified , but it will bo eufficient to f dontion its ultimate lines as now in roat part carried out. Commencing a point fifty metres uouthweat of he Kaa-ol-Teen light-houso , the outer f breakwater extends first in this latter direction for nearly ltOCX ) metres and then , curving to south nrnithwpit , runs in a straight line 2,350 mefrcs further , or in all nbovo two miles across the south of the harbor , inclosing an area of more thai 1,400 ncres of still water duq enough for vessels of tlio largest class. ' The principal entrance to the port is now , therefore , round the southwestern end of tlio breakwater , which is 1.500 metres from the ulioro. wliilo the narrow passive oF ( Has el- Teen Riumls ingress nnd ogress only to small craft nnd shore boats. As in the cano of THE OP.KAT MOLES AT POUT HMD , this outer sen wall has boon construe led , up to the water level , of huge blocks of concrete , manufactured at the mtighbotiiiR Mx quarries of muni and Thoil limo nnd deposited pell moll on the seaside , with an ninor front of rubble. The upper portion of the work , which is of solid mason ry , rises ton foot nbovo the lonvst , or si'von foot nbovo tlio hiuhvat , ea level , nnd is of uniform aurfuco idth of twenty foot. In ull , nbaut 25,000 , concrete blocks , weighing ton tuns each , nnd ltiO,000 tons of largo nnd small nibble stones have been sunk in the foundations of this grotl uork. Shorowaids , the scheme compriaoa a broad mole , stretching out 000 motrui from the mouth of the Mnninuiulinh canal nnd Mio harbor terminus of the Cairo railroid towards llis-ol-Teen , and A MJJK OK qUAYS 1,240 metro ] long , extondini ; from the same point along the Marina to close up the Admiralty Dock. Like the in ner mole , these quayc nro b.iaed upon n deep rubble foundation , \vith n superstructure of solid niatonry , and whan completed will have abutting iron jetties , alongside , which ships may load nnd discharge in nil weathers. A brnnoh railway will connect the mole nnd quays with the Alexandria & Cairo line , and thus with the whole railway system of the interior. THE BRITISH FLEET.
