Eighty thousand acres have been submitted to the Irish Land Court, for the decision of the Commissioners. 10,000 acres have been decided, but there are 14,000 appeals. The homeward Australian-New ZeaMails, via San Frauci&co, which left Auckland on the % 20th March, were delievered in London yesterday. It has transpired that the exchange of communications between Governments which has been proceeding some time past on the subject of the Egyptian Question has resulted in an agreement being arrived at as to substitution of Prince Halim in place of Tew fik Pasha on the Egyptian throne, If this should take place, it would be necessary to abandon the principle of the Turkish occupation of Egypt, and leave the initiatire in Egyptian affairs to France.
