FROM SAN FRANCISCO IN 124 HOURS. The news from Egypt has lately been very quiet about the False Prophet of the Sou don as ho is called. The Egyptians themselves had no eyes for events lately, except those things wliieli were taking place so much nearer their own doors, and it is only now that they aro able to look about and see what is going on m the more out-of-the-way parts of their own country. The False Prophet, it would seem, has uot been idle; while Arabi has boon suffering defeat rumor has it that tho False Prophet has been achieving victories and slaying many thousands of his foes, lie is evidently playing for a high stake; this is clear from the name which, if we trust the telegram, he has assumed for himself. He claims to be the Imama Mahdi, or the last prophet A'lah will send ta conquer the enemies of Islam and rule supreme over the world. To such a person all Mohammedans would kncul and servo. Wore ho to appear in this character as a conqueror at Cairo the eclipse iDf Arabi, as well as of tho Khedive, would bo complete. The Sultan himself would ccase to think of the Caliphate in the presence of such a potentate and representative of Allah on earth. Tho Imatn Mahdi is to como, according to Mohammedan belief, accompanied with great signs and wonders, and ho will appear shortly before the Judgment Bay.

It was live days and four hours in transit, which is the quickest mail service ever performed between San Francisco and this city. This is due to the fact that the overland mail made close connections with the Pennsylvania Railroad limited express at Chicago. A large part of the mail was from Australia, and, in accordance with the arrangements made by Postmaster Pearson with the North German Lloyd Steamship Company, a tug, in charge of Superintendent Waring of the foreign mail department. awaited the arrival of the train at Jersoy City to receive the European mail from the train and convey it to the steamship Main, which was waiting in the lower bay.

Mr. Scrinton made a remarkably strong fight in ti e face of the moat bitter, unmanly anil unscrupulous opposition. In spito of the fact that there was a clear Democratic opposition against Republicanism in the district of betweeu two find three thousand, and a strong Republican defection in Wilkes-Bnrre on wholly personal grounds, iiud theruiora most bitterly i mI reloiillrssiy maintained, Mr. Scranton got s down under but a few 1 undred mojority.

Wo venture to say that few, if any, conld have made the glorious run he has, under the circumstaucos. Thero is no doubt that the voters of the district have made a mistake, and the voters will be the losers. West Pittston and Pittston have nothing to regret in the light but the defoat. They have sustained Mr. Scranton's claims with remarkadle unanimity, a devotion to the causo of Republiciinism which true Republicans everywhere will appreciate. l'he voters of Pittston have done their whole duty and they have of .Labor Will Never Vote a Labor Grand Secretary Leighton of the Knights Ticket Again. Pittsburg, Nov. 8.—u I've held the Labor ticket for five years. I voted it when mine was the only Labor ballot cast in my preciuct, but you can just mark me dowu as saying that I will never vote it again, no matter what the inducement of the campaign may cause others to do," said Grand Secretary Leigh ton, of the Knights of Labor, today. "Mayor Powderly, of Scranton, the Grand Master of the Knights of Labor, has rrg'ied all along that politics was not on© of tl:p missions of the workingman, and that to afioot satisfactory reform his plan must be to vote with the party that gave him the best results. This was Powderly's method in Scrauton. He selected on© Republican and one Democrat for the Legislature in his city and elected them both. Ho went about makiug labor speeches and advised his hearers to vote for the Republican and the D emocrat of his choice and the result was good. After this I will be in favor of any party which will promise to us the best things for the laborer and I will use my influence accordingly. Then we will give the candidates to understand that when elected they are handling pistols with hair-triggers. If they vote for any conspiracy laws, such as now threaten Miles McPadden, we will mark them and defeat them at the succeeding primaries when they come up for re-nomination. Hopkins is tho workingmen's candidate and if he makes as good a record this time as ho did the last time ho was in Congress he can count on re-eloction as often as he wants the placo.

General Cameron did not think it was Buch a defeat for his son as some people imagined. All his friends for the Legislature were, so far as he know, elected, and he bolievcd if Donald desired it he could himself succeed in the United States Senate. The defeat of tUa-Republican party in the Stato would have a bad effect, because it would keep both factions apart. They could never, in hit opinion, unite, and would defeat each other when occasion rendered it necessary, by voting with tho Democrats. — Sandy llun D Franklin  Frt-eland  Hazleton, E.

In this there is a manifest traco of Scripturo ideas, which tho Mohammedans liavo followed, and where the Hebrew Messianic notions may be traced. It bears, at the same time, a s'rong resemblance to the Kalki Avatar of tho Hindus, which is to make is appearance on n white horso, and when the white horse stamps its foot the Kali, or black age, is to end. and tho Crita, or golden age, will begin again. It need scarcely bo stilted that there have been many pretenders to this character in the liast; and the Indian bazaars during the mutiny often had wondrous tales of his appearance leading his army of white horses. The Imam Mahdi must bo a visible ruler with power and victory on his sido, and if tho present pretender at Khartoum manages to spisad the report that he is killing his enemies by tho thousands, ho may lie accepted most willingly by the Moslems. Even tho dofoat of Arabi, who claimed to bo lighting for the cause of Islam, may have tho effect of making the Mohammedans turn to this man as their coming prophet. Should this peculiar result come to pass, it may give our troops another campaign in Egjpt, for the new Imam is not likely to give any guarantees About such a tririo as tho Suez Canal. At present he is a long way off. Khartoum, of which ho is said to be absolute master, is about DOO miles in a direct line from Cairo, and perhaps 1,000 miles following tho winding of the Nile. Tho town is tho principal place in that region and is situated among palm trees on the vcatcm bank of the Bahr-el-Azrek, or tho Blue Nile. This is closo to the junction of that branch with tho Bahr-el-Aviad, or the White Nile.

The wonder is that with tho Republican defection of 1,500 votes in and about Wilkes-Barre, Mr. Connolly is not elected by a majority of three or four thousand instead of as many hundreds. In pleasing contrast to the loss incurred in Wilkes-Barrro is the gain of over threo hundred on the Garfield vote mCDdo by Mr. Scranton in Pittston and vicinity, showing some bright spots in Luzerne despite the fierce assaults made upon tho Republican candidate in the home county of Governor Hoyt, whoso influence, with that of his immediate friends, was entirely exercised in the interest of the Demo- Lake.
