ARABI'S SURRENDER.

"When Cairo was surrendered, the Perfect of Police was at once ordered by Colonel Stewart to invite Arabi to attend him as the Abbassieh. He at once came, accompanied by Toulba, and was received by General Lowe, who had meanwhile arrived. Turning to Colonel Dullier Bey, an officer in the Khedive's service, Arabi asked him what he was required to do, Dullier told him to surrender his sword. He then asked whether he understood that he was to surrender unconditionally. He replied "Yes," that ho surrendered to the clemency of England. He then began a speech to the effect that all men were brothers but was stopped by General Lowe, who stated that his only mission was to receive his surrender. He then asked to bo allowed to send to his palace for some of his servants. This was allowed. As he was leaving he at the drawn swords of the escort, aud whispered to Dullier, " Tell tho general I treated his prisoners well." He was assured that lie should be treated with(consider ation until he was handed over to Sir Garnet"Wolpeley. On the arrival of Sir Garnet, ho was taken by Sir Charles Wilson in a carriage to the place prepared for him in the Abdin Palace. On the way he began making the usual salaams to the crowd, but finding the natives did not respond, he threw himself back in tho carrriage with disgust. He is well lodged, but Buffering from dysentry, aud attended by Dr. Jackson. Sir Garnet Wolseley declined to see him.
