Cairo, July 12.
The bold British action against the French fleet continues to evoke the hearty approval of the people and Al Balagh" writes: "The British Government has taken action unprecedented in boldness and. firmness. There is no doubt that Britain had every justification in not believing the enemy's promises to her ally, who was no longer in a position to insist fon their fulfilment."
"AL Mokaltam" says: "The refusal fof the French authorities to accept the British proposals, and obvious conclusions therefrom. ed the British Government to take this grave action. The British Navy prevented French vessels from falling into enemy hands, and can now occupy herself with the Ballan fleet. This second naval bat~ tle has well illustrated British naval supremacy, demonstrating that Britain is stilt mistress of the seas.—Router.
