About this book
Hong Kong Telegraph 1882-08-18
Year: 1882
TRAVELERS proverbially tell strange tales, and the strangest of them, says the Referce, are told about manners and custorns --- the idiosynerasies of individuals and the peeuliarities of Governments. EGYPTIAN AFFAIRS. The Turkish troops have not proceeded to Egypt; but have landed at Crete. It is certainly expected that the Turkish troops will not go to Egypt. WE hear that Mr. Bowler is on the war-path again, this time after a coolie who has run off. WE note the arrival by the Pekin yesterday, of Assistant Commissary General. G. C. Murray. The natives are getting daily more excited. Two Egyptian gunboats, ordered by the Khedive to proceed to Alexandria, have entered the Canal here. The debate in the House of Commons on the vote of credit continues. A perfect state of panic is reported from Port Said. The garrison at Aboukir when ordered to embark for Alexandria refused to do so: their rallying to the Khedive was only a ruse.
