ALEXADUIA , Auguat G. At 6 o'clock
yeatorday afternoon the British troops
with a number of iiold guns , attacked
the advance guard of Arab ! Paslia noai
llamloh , between Malonbtob 'canal
and the Cairo railway , firing upon the
enemy's position from throe sides.
Arubi Pasha sent fourteen men with
a white flag to the British camp thie
morning. The party wan received by
Major Pringlo , but the interview was
without rcMiilt.
FUilYUEK PARTll'UtiAIIS.
At 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon the
armored train with Nordonfoldt gum
and forty pounders proceeded to Ma.-
hall.i junction , carrying 1,000 marines
under Colonel Ten-son accompanied
by Captain Fisher and Lieutenant
Limbton. The expedition was joined
from llamloh by _ the Sixty-eighth
rifles and Thirty-eighth regiment. The
onenjy soon appeared in great force
and sent a shower of rifle shots intc
our troops or rather over their heads ,
while from behind entrenchments the
men opened a brisk Ore with field guns
and made free use of rockets. ' The
Nordonfoldt guns from the tram made
excellent practice in return and played
havoc in the ranks of the enemy. The
enemy's loss must have been severe.
Orders have boon issued that thera-
connolssanca be resumed in thoTnorn-
ing , but as the admiral proposes to
send an escort under a flag of truce
through to Arabi Pasha's camp to con
voy Midshipman Dechairs cflbcta tu
Cairo , itis | uncertain whether the ro-
connoissanco will take place. It is
not clear what object is to bo gained
by such mancuvuors which expose our
troops to the risk of heavy loss.
SILENCING THE ENEMY.
ALEXANDRIA , August G. The object
of the operations Saturday was a recou-
noieancu in force. Commencing at 4
o'clock in the afternoon a steady ad-
varico nas made , the marines upon the
railway line , the rifles upon the west
bank of the Mohmoudich canal and
South Staffordshire regiment and
mounted infantry upon the east bank.
The enemy were driven in from all
their advanced posts and compelled to
bring into action all their troops avail
able in front of their principal line of
entrenchments atKafr El Divarname
ly , about tour battalions of infantry ,
a force of cavalry and several guns.
The latter wore completely silenced
by the accurate fire of our forty poun
ders. The Egyptian infantry held
their , ground wuti considerable steadi
ness. The marines on the railway ,
who were under the immediate com
mand of General Allison , pushed the
enemy back upon their second line of
sntronchmonta towards Kafr El Dwar.
The marines were supported by the
South Staffordshire regiment and
ifles. They suffered somewhat , but
) ohavod with the greatest coolness
and steadiness under heavy firo. The
object of the British operations , which
was to compel the enemy to display
what guns they had in front of the
nain position , was completely at
tained. This waa ascertained by
lightfal , when the Britiali wore
slowly and steadily withdrawn. No
accurate return of killed and wounded
s yet obtainable. The enemy's ' loss
s unknown. A largo number of
wounded fell into the hands of the
British. Many dead wore soon. A
considerable number of the enemy
were made prisoners. The British
nade successful experiments with the
orty pounders mentioned while
mounted on an iron-clad railway
ruck.
OFFICIAL HEl'UItTJ.
LONDON , August 0. The official ro-
iort of Admiral Seymour concerning
ho encounter with the enemy's re-
: pnnoisanco party at Mahalla June-
ion , Saturday , is as follows : "Our
orco consisted of 200 men of the na
val brigade , with one forty-pounder
and tvro nine-pounder guns , under
'apt. Firholf ; 1,000 marines under
3ol. Towsoiij half the battalion of
ho Thirty-eighth and Forty-uixth
egiraonts and all the Sixtieth regi-
mriit. Wo had a skirmish the enemy ,
who was 2,000 strong with six guns
aid six rockets , from half-past 0 until
mlf-past 7 in the evening , Total cas-
alties to the naval brigade and ma-
inos , two killed and twenty-two
wounded. "
The following is General Allison's
oport : "Persistent native reports
fitting during the past few days that
.rabi Pasha was returning from Kafr
SI Dwar upon the Damanhour , I de-
ormined upon a roconnoisanco to as-
srtaia clearly whether Arabi Pasha
ill hold his original position" strongly.
The loft column commenced to ac
vance nt 4(5 : p. m. from the advanc
Eickota at the Ramloh lines , movln
y both banks of the Mohnioudic
canal , and soon came into action wit
the enemy , who was strong ! ,
posted in a group of palm tree
on the eastern tide , and stroll
dofenciblo houses and gardens on th
other side. Thco positions were car
ried. At this limo Lieut. Vjso , o
the GOtli regiment and ono soldier wn
killed , In the evening they took
second position , half n mile in th
rear , upon the east bank of the cana
among the high crops and houses an
behind the irregular bnnkn of the ca
nal. From this position also , th
enemy were driven with great loss
I accompanied the right column mj
self. As soon as the enemy observe
us they opened fire with artillery ,
pushed on as rapidly as possible till ' .
reached the point wljero the railwa
approaches near to the Mohmoudiu
canal and then opened n musketry fir
upon the enemy lining the banks o
the canal , Two nine pounders wer
dragged on to the embankment an
came into action au'ainst the cnomit

thus attaining the position I wishe

The object of my reconnoisanco wo
attained and I determined to wit )
draw. This movement was carrie
out with the most perfect regularit
and precision , The troops fell bac
by alternate companies with the rcgi
larity of a field day. Every attomp

Lord Dufferin nguin Insisted upot

in Egypt , that the sultan protected
Arabi Pasha nnd would send troop
to drive out the English. Ho furthoi
called attention to the fact that th

is no longer any doubt that a diverg
ence ) of views exists between England
and Russia which is exercising a very
prejudicial influence upon all at
tempts to harmonize English action
in Etrypt with the legitimate rights
and wishes ot' the powers. It is not
inlikely that this divergence may
ead to a break of the conference nt
on early date without any tangible
result. The London Times says the
jorto has the effrontery to declare
hat the proclamation against Arabi

udn after the landing of the Turkish
n Egypt. It is impossible , there-
ore , for England to accept or

200 senate bills , most of them of
n private character. Of 2,250 bills

THE r.iaiiT-nouu
It is stated the president has do-
ided upon the strict enforcement of
lie eight-hour law , aa that law was
onstrued during the administration
f General Grant , Members of the
abinet , however , entertain different
doaa on the subject. The attorney
enoral , in u recent opinion , hold that
lie present law is imperfect , and that
Is proper enforcement would require
dditional legislation. The secretary

ontonda that under the existing law
ight hours constitute a legal day's
vork , and ho says the law can bo uii-
orcod at the navy yards. The presi
