THE EGYPTIAN WAR.
RETREAT OF THE ENEMY. DESERTIONS EVERY WHERE. [“age” specials.] LONDON, August 24, 9.22 p.m. All the positions held by Arabi’s forces between Suez and Ismailia have now been evacuated, and the enemy Has retreated in a zig-zag and disorderly manner. The fresh water supply to the places along the Canal, and to Alexandria, are found to be sufficient for all requirements. The deserters coming in from the enemy are very numerous. Thousands appear to have been intimidated into joining Arabi’s forces.
