Tim Sheiks who have visited the camp represent some thirty-eight thousand men, all will¬ ing. the General believes, actively to UMut in the coming operations, instead of remaining neutral in the possible view of siding with the victors, At the same time Osman Dlgon’i followers are known to lie steadily falling off. A large body of-Arabs from the tribes actually with the retails, and on Osman Digna’s side, have entered the camp. premise They came in accordance with a made three J’nehtJ days pi nee. At this moment. Baker! lias expressed to me a tear lest the reports just arrived from Cairo to the effect that the government has re¬ solved to abandon the Soudan, and may de¬ moralize the frieudlv Arabs, arrest the present movement of submission. If, however, the tribes are reassured, Baker l’achafools fairly confident that the above named tribes might lie entrusted to raise the siege of Hiukut, leaving the army here to march upon Tokar. The Slu-iks always urge that s single sucoAss by Baker Pacha would procure the adhe¬ sion of all the tribes still wavering and speedily end the rebellion. This double movement Baker Pacha hopes to execute before the end of the month, but the plans may be changed by unforeseen point ac¬ cidents. At present, appearances to a man'll in force direct to Tokar.” The correspondent of the Loudon Times at Sunkiui says:—“The port of Hmikim itself is snftv Not if all the Mulidi’s forces were outside, and Gen¬ eral Baker’s army annihilated, would the place be in danger, so guard. long ok our own vessels of war stand T» gunboats lie anchored, and one on either at side of the causeway, an enemy tempting to enter‘the town would lie night the luhabttants and the enemy outside lmd a striking example of what the ships could do.
