EGYPTIAN NEWSPAPER.—A journal is now published at Alexandria, under the title of Miszer Wekaiesi (Egyptian News.). The Vignette of this paper, in opposition to the Ottoman Crescent, presents half a sun, shining forth from behind a pyramid, on the side of which stands a flourishing young palm tree. On the left of the vignette are these words:—“Printed at the office of the Divan of Events in the Royal Castle.”—This paper, which is in the Arabic and Turkish languages, gives no political news, but is confined to civil and military subjects, which have merely a local interest.
