Mr. Agent and Consul-General: By dispatch of the 10th of February, you did me the honor to inform me that the Hon.

I hasten to reply, Mr. Agent and Consul-General, that the necessities of the judicial service remaining the same, the Government of the Khédive has not changed its propositions, and that it is ready to carry them out, subject to the conditions in my aforementioned communications of the, 3d of August, 1876, and under the final reserves therein expressed.
