The India House published on Friday a telegram despatched from
Alexandria on the 6th inst. In it Sir Robert Napier informs Sir S. Northcote that he reached Lat on the 21st of March, that he expects to arrive before Magdala on the 2nd of April, that he is milling ready to storm the place, that Theodore is in it with the captives, and that the King has 26 guns and 5,000 musketeers, and intends to defend his fort. The King, it appears, professes to be delighted with the whole affair, and says he has all his life wished to see a well disciplined army. He has been aware of the invasion for the past two months, but, fortunately, bears no apparent malice to the captives, who are still alive. The Commander-in-Chief, we
regret to see, has been compelled to telegraph to India for another regiment, and the 26th Cameronians passed Aden ou their way to Annesley Bay on the 29th of March.
