Quite different, however, is the opinion of them
with the retaliation of such expectancy. The p=o
encloser is full of confidence that if Sebastopol is to be by
at all its downfall will be essentially accelerated by
the railway. In that faith the navvies ply their picks and

...sunken ; incalculable the advantages Paris wet
to have derived therefrom. Even a journal was
published, called Le Docks, to repiesent the new
developments of industry that were about to pave the
streets of Paris with gold! Well, the money was,
collected in the autumn of 1852, to accomplish this
post and most desirable work. Feverish was the
public expectation—eager were the hands that
mere dipped in speculative pockets, to buy the
golden shares of the company. Well secured, UM,
Wen the statutes in the mysterious portfolios of the
Commit of Stets. These were the summer hoses of
the speculation. Everybody believed in the success,
the reality of the thing. The known vigour of the
government in all matters connected with the im-
provement of Paris gave men reason to believe that
this vigour would extend its influence over the Na-
poleon Docks 1 and in this expectation the shares of
the company reached a high figure.
To follow the sad story of this semi-official specu-
lation through all its dreary ramifications would be
tedious. It will suffice for the Information of
readers that the present aspect of the affair
should be contrasted with the wondrous promises
of its birth. To begin with the beginning,
the shares show a loss of sixty francs discount!
It is necessary, therefore to ascertain, if possible,
how this discount has been arrived at. I will not
trace, for the edification of scandal lovers, the many
stories that are afloat in Paris concerning the untie-
Innate Docks Napoleon. Most of these stories assail
the honour of somebody. I will therefore refrain from
publishing them, and from givihg centriccy to hints
that may throw light upon the names intended to be
damaged. I have no means of ascertaining whether
sharps of peculation and maladministration are true
es false; and I would not take upon myself the ree-
possibility of scandalous details, even if I were cos-
trimmed d their truth. 'There is no end to be served
thereby. That such stories are current at the Bourse
and on the Boulevards, that they are continually
bandied about by excited gentlemen who believe that
they have been duped, that they touch the honour,
nay, the common honesty of conspicuous men, are
points enough for my purpose. Scandalous stories of
maladministration do exist, and facts which are indis-
putable lend a certain weight to the mat violent
assertions. The accused man who refuses to answer
any question—who shuts, himself up, and maintains
for two years a gloomy silence, when, if he were
honest, a word might clear him—will always be, in
the eyes of the world, a suspicious character.
Two years age more than two years ago—the
statutes of the Society of the Docks Napoleon WOO
drawn up, and presented to the Council of Stets for
the confirmation and authority of that august body.
Two long and anxious years have passed away—and
still these statutes remain locked up in the portfolios
of these very select legislators. Meantime the
French public, and I believe a section of the English
public, have been daily agitated by hopes that the I

COFFEE FOR THE CRIMEA.—On Saturday par-
larnentary paper was published, containing the correspon-
deuce upon the subject of the roasting and grinding of
coffee as also the letters between the Feblie Department,
Lord Raglan, and the War Department. The document is
of some =portals., with respect to the supply of coffee to
the troops is the But. It appears that irons the 16th
March, 1864, to the 13th February intent, the quantity of
isareasted coffee shipped by the Gavel department for the
army is the Bast, according to the requisitions made by the
Commie's:fat department, was 800,9141b5. Of roasted
coffee. 211,2301 be, whole, was shipped ; and of ground coffee,
30,0591ba. No ground coffee was mat until the 18th nit.
Complaints have been made that the troops were supplied
with Impound coffee ; and there Is a notice on the order
book of the House of Commons on the subject. The first
communication in the paper is dated the 24th February,
1864, sad the last on the 6th of the present month. The
lest letter's to the Socaetarylof the Admiralty from the War
Department, requesting that the Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty were to be moved to give directions for the ship-

The Mauritius was burning the whole day on
•I=y. She was in many respects the finest ship in the i
Screw Company's fleet, and a model of her was
Imelda, for the French Exhibition. The chief reason for
believing that she was set on fire is the known bad feeling
of her crew towards the company, and their indifference in
Ogles to save the ship when she first caught fire. No proof
however, been found at present to warrant the belief
that the fire was not an accident. On the night of the fire
a retcatcher was on board the Mauritius, setting his traps,
sad going about all night with a lantern. It is not likely,
Sbessitsee, that such • night would have been chosen by en
inseediary. The workmen who had been working all
night on board the ship had struck week, and it is probable
that the fires which had berm lightfog them caused the no-

The Perseverance iron screw steam troop ship,

was this day successfully raised to nearly • perpeadiculai
position. The port holes as the lower side having been

other powerful purchases having been applied, the water

rose she righted herself,in the presented of a large concourse of
