THE ARAKS ARE OAININO STRENGTH every day. The natives interpret En gland's delay as inability to right on land. Arabi'a Eeaute already surround Rpmleh , seven miles out of the city. THE SPANISH ORDEIIS Excitement is occasioned by news from Constantinople of the sudden en ergy of the Spanish government. Or ders first came to the ambassador to station ono'Spanish iron-clad at each end of the Suez canal for the purpose of escorting Spanish mails each way. A later order changed to place three iron-clads at each end for the same purpose. N INDIAN TROOPS. LONDON , July 20.

A recon nassanco by order of Seymour , ro suHod in the discovery that Arabi'i position is strong. Arabi's army hai already diverted the waters of Ma homondioh canal into Maruit lake , As this canal supplied Alexandria with water , the city must depend upon cisterns. Those were recently filled , but it is believed most of them wor destroyed or rendered inacccBai < blo 'during the bombardment. The excitement is increasing. A council of war has just been hold horo. A WATER FAMINE n imminent. The old lloman wolfs > r cisterns cannot bo cleaned and filled for weeks to como , and the ships in the harbor can only condense enough water for the use of the crews and troops. Ni thing remains for the populacj but flight to thn Suez valley. A CONDITION It JOINT. Porto , in joining the conference to day , did so understanding that such action would not change the relations of western powers to the Porto. THE SUEZ CANd.Ii- PRESENT CONDITION OF THIS GREAT WATERWAY. A Cairo letter to The London Times nays : I was glad to see how much of the banks are now cased with stono. Trees jrrow with diffi culty in the sand , and their roots suf fer from the salt water. A sandy bank is carried by the wash of thu steamers in the deep water channel. But this fltono casing resists the wash , ind when it is complete the company tvill bo able to increase without dan- jor their regulation speed. Wo mot ivith no obataclu for two hours. In ; hia great highway of nations wo saw 10 life save the wild marsh birds , and ; ho waatu of water stretching away to ; ho yellow deseat. There are ; area or passing places every 'ow miles , where the deep water way is widened from twonty-four iO fifty yards and sometimes more , ind a signalman system stops or allows o pass the ships according ai the next un ia free or occupied. Wo passed ho first garo successfully , but at the ccond the ball was hointed above the lag , whiuh , in canal language , means 'go into the Biding. " Nothing came iy before sunset , when all traffic eases , and wo lay in the quiet moon- ight with every intention to proceed t sunrise. Uut when I came up next lornint ; to see the start I found a ept of great ships , each with its oisy little tug and yellow flag at the laslhoad , ( .lipping along in single file. t was a grand way of realizing the ork ot the canal. Nineteen vessels ont by , averaging , our captain told 10 , 1 , COO tons burden. All save two irried the British flag. Three were rammed with pilgrims , forecastle , tain deck , and quarter deck , ono lass of life. Even the boats were ill of them , and from under a canvas vninc pooped the veiled faces of omon. Ono lot wera Russial pil- ims from the Caucasus savage- eking fellows in fur caps and black oaks ; the others were Algerians and 'oors in turbans and bunous. The at of the ships were cargo-laden , ronty-two and twenty-throe foot in o wator. All went by safely until o seventeenth , the Scotch Grays , me. She wont a yard or two out her course , and at ouca was round. She had passed us , but hers had otill to cotno , and there is nothing for it but to wait till the etch Grays got free. Hawsers : ro made fast to stern and bow on her bank , and , afrer an hour's outing , and steaming , and wincing , 0 big ship swunc Into place again. 10 rest came by without disaster , and 1 got under way at 11 o'clock. The canal is not big enough for the Dsont traffic. Shipping to the exit - it of over 3,000,000 tons passes lore rough every year , and it is steadily row the incrcaso. Ships have to wait robi iir turn , and much valuable time is bi sted at either end and in the pass- inP' ) . The accommodation may bo in- P' aaed in two ways. The whole lie gth of the canal may bo widened aa to allow of ships passing each icr everywhere. Such a work would Btl ; not bo difficult , but it would bo th y costly. The deep water passage PI uld have bo than 16 ] to more double in Ith , as the alow speed makes ateer- difficult , and ships in pasiiug uld require plenty of soaroom to mi iid accidents. Tlio present width wonty-fivo yards would to bo raised dii iixty , but it would not bo necessary fol ncroauo the width of aur/aco of the oh , onvay , which is already 100 yards Iu inbaiik to bank. The second mode of IuCi rt-aaing the faciltios of paas go is of ofNt ro feasible , and has much to ro- Nt intend it. It consists in a consid- Oi lo iucroaso in the number of gares It. wssing plasos , and in the length- of ng of these already in existence. to- - > ro are at present thirteen , and trc Y might easily bo increased to da , nty. The same precautions now Tli diced would be still enforced in tot passing of ships. The block sys- , would bu carried out from fare to 3. The buoying of the passage is Nat ady excellent , and there- would bo increase in the danger of fouling wil jamming. Tlio consequence of na i accidents in so narrow a water- ' as the canal are ao serious that I Nat ik , on the whole tha increase of garea ia most tn bo recommended , Of ono or the other improvement ia joasary. on dis General Foreign Now- nal Associated Vitas.
