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.
LONDON , .July 12 , In the homo cf
commons , Gladutnno , replying to in
quiries BO to the exact attitude Eng
land is placed in towards other pow
ers by Seymour's action , oflicially de
nied on hohult of the government that :
England hud begun the war with
Egypt ; that ( ho boinbaidment of .
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. Glnd-
itono averred Seymour's conduct ,
consistent with perfect , concert be
tween the powero and E .gland.

ALEXANDUIA , July 12. 0 p. in.
Several largo fires are burning in va
rious parts of the city , all of which '
itarted apparently simultaneously , A >
lag of truce can still bo suen flying ,
put it is feared that Arab ! Boy's >
'ollowora mean to destroy the city by
;
PAHIS , July 12. A terrible fire is
raging , caused by a gas explosion , just
low. 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

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

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.
