At about a quarter to 9 o'clock on Tuesday the visitors' bell rang, and the servant said that a middle-aged man desired to see Mr. Smyth. The elder Mrs. Smyth went down, and the man gave the name of John Wilson, of Duke street, Montreal. He said that he w is gotting on in years, had been a telegraph messenger, in which capacity he contracted rheumatism; that his wife was sick and needed aid, and that he was helpless and wanted particularly to see Mr. Smyth. As his looks did not favor his application, he was told to oall again. Reassuring himself by anothor question that Mr. Smyth was not in, he went away, promising to return. This he has not dono, and diligent inquiry shows that no such person exists. Soon after he had gone, while the ladies were conversing together,. Mrs. Smyth, Jr., fancied that she heard a slight noise in the nursery, and believed it was but the restlessness of one of the chiidren. At about 94 she went into the nursory, found the window blinds open, and the nearost cot to the window (little Arthurs) empty. He was missing. A lotter was lying on the pillow, asking $10,000 in gold ransom, and saying tliat any attempt to discover the child's whereabouts would endanger his life j that the place whero he was incarcerated was very unhealthy, and that the parents were to advertise in an evening paper that they would follow instructions, when they would hear from the writer again. Comparison shows the handwriting to be precisely tho same as that of the lotter received after the jewelry robbery.TO-DAY'S HAPPENINGS. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL THE VERY LATEST. SEASONABLE GOODS Stock Report. Alexandria, July 19.—A correspondent of the Telegraph, who has just returned from a journey of nine milea along the route of Arab Pasha's retreat, passed several villages, the people in which are starving. The soldiers robbed them of every tiling. The entire route is lined with dead horses and carriages. It is reported that the Bedouins harrassed the soldiers during their retreat, killing 200 of them. The conduct of the Khedive causes much surprise. lie has for the past few days allowed several persona to be at the Palace, who are well known to have been intimately connected with Arabi Pasha. The Khedive apparently trusts them ; but it may be tliat he is endeavoring to get them thoroughly in his power. Dervisch Pasha left here this morning for Constantinople. A telegram from ihe Porte for Dervisch Pasha arrived shortly after he had left. Admiral Seymour sent after him, but the efforts to overtake his yacht were unsuccessful. Two large fires broke out to-day, evidently started by incendiaries. THE NEWS FROM WASHINGTON AT A GREAT SACRIFICE NEWS BY ASSOCIATED PRESS Reported by Carpentkk & Boomer.

The Manager of the old water works has ordered that the old Roman wells throughout the town be emptied, cleansed and refilled with water, the water supply being completely at Arabi's mercy. Laborers are scarce and the work will probably take three weeks. Cbnsiderable progress having been made in clearing the ruins from the roadways, the Khedive was enabled to drive through the town to-day. Arabi Pasha has ordered the Mudirs to pay taxes to him for war purposes. No Europeans remain in Cairo except twenty Gurnans who refuse to leave. It has been learnod that the Consul who was. killed at Zagazig was the Italian Consul. It is rumored here that a mimbor of people who lied to Athens bofore the bombardment are preparing to return. The Eastern Telegraph Company's land line between Suez and Aloxandria is intact to withiu sixteen miles of Alexandria. Suez is reported to be quiet. The town is deserted. The ships of the resorvo squadron liavo been ordered to return to their soveral stations. This is regarded as an indication that the emergency, as far as regards a demand upon the navy, lias passed away. Remember—for thirty days only. SEASONABLE GOODS Always found at WM.

The Khedive, he argues, ui accepting British soldiers as a body guard, has shown that he considered the Egyptian army as enemies. By international and sacred law, he says, he has the right and the duty to dofend the country, and the Khedive's order to suspend military preparations is analagous to the order of the Bey of Tunis at the time of the French invasion.

A few American and German sailors are Btill at their respective Consulates, but with this exception the city is held solely by the English. General Allison has mado a reconnoissance in the direction of Arabi's camp, in order to see what bettor ground might be chosen for our front, as we are unable to see more than two yards from the present line.

Haktford, July 19.—It is estimated that the expense to the State will not exceed $10,- 000, while the Hayden trial cost three times as much. The pay of the jurors in this case foots up $1,000, and their mileage one quarter as much. They received $2.50 per day, and six cents a mile each way once a weok. The bill of the High Shoriff will be about $1,000 for deputies and incidentals. The witnesses drew nearly $2,500, and of this nearly $1,000 goes to the three or four oxperts who appoared for the State. The expense under the head of expert testimony is unusually light as compared with that of previous great trials of the State. Mr. Hugh, associate of the State Attorney, receives about $500. The lawyers designated by the Court to defend Blanche Douglass reooivo from the State $336 each, or $650. The figures that have been given aggregate $1,650; and other MpeiMOs—summoning witnesses, etc.—will, bring the State's total up to $10,000. It is estimated that the expenses of the trial to Edward Malley, father of Walter, will not exceed $15,000. The tumor that Dr O'Malley paid Lawyer Caasidy $10,000 to de fend his brother James is about $7,000 out of the way. Footing it all up, the trial has cost both sides about $30,000.
