My surveys and reports, however, will remain, and when Egypt has recovered from the effects of its wasteful extravagance this work and others on which I have reported — such as the Barrage — will be resumed and carried out. " I must briefly describe the ceremony of the inauguration of the Soudan Eailway, and the speeches delivered on the occasion. On January 15th, 1875, in a violent gale of wind and sand, the ceremony commenced. The Egyptian ofdcers engaged upon the work were in attendance, and... soldiers were placed instead of flag posts to mark out the line. Close at hand were the labourers, with their tools and baskets. I verified the levels and angles, and then the Cadi, the eccle- siastical judge, and his assistant with a large assembly arrived, carrying banners, on which were texts from the Koran. The assistant read an address in Arabic, and while he was reading a long piece of poetry incorporated in the address, Chabim Pasha, the Governor, intimated to the orator that sufficient had been recited, upon which the assembled company said ' Amen,' and prematurely ended the address.
