CAIRO.
December 7. The trial of the rebel leaders is now being rapidly proceeded with, and the following prisoners have been condemned to exile, the death sentence which was passed upon them having been commuted by the Khedive :—Mahmond Fehmy and Mahmond Samy, formerly members of the Ministry ; Abdellab, one of Arabi's colonels, and commander of tbe rebel garrison at Damiette; and Toulha Pasha, formerly Governor of Alexandria. Riag Pasha has resigned his seat in the Cabinet in consequence of the leniency which has been shown to the rebels. It is probable that he will be succeeded by Mibar Pasha. It has been decided that Arabi and his accomplices, whose sentences of death were commuted to exile, are to be deported to Ceylon, an arrangement to that effect baring been arrived at with the British Government.
