Kawkab Amirka, كوكب أمريكا, Vol. 1, no. 39. The date mistakenly reads January 6 1892 most likely due to an error in type setting for the first issue of the new year. Articles in English include: a report on the conflict between Mahdi Muhammed Ahmed and the British, which would later be known as the Mahdist War, over the independence of Sudan; a summary of a British report on Damascus, Syria, with particular emphasis on its economy and exports and the social classes of its populations; an excerpt from a travelogue by Sir Edwin Arnold about a Japanese watering destination; the conclusion of M.S. Constable's travelogue to Greece; and a brief article about Eastern Orthodox celebrations of Christmas.
