The news received from Cabal is, so far as it

goes, reassuring. All was reported "quiet" there yesterday afternoon. The force there was estimated at 20,000, and "a strong division was ready to move sonthwards." Mr. Lepel Griffin was to meet the new Ameer to-day, and so far as appears, the latter has not been driven by the news of our disaster into any new attitude.
