LONDON, SATURDAY, NOVBMBRR 8.

Ta Expreu has already called attention to
the probability that the coaetiluftilitYB of the Riordan

ralerays would eodeavour to obtain in the English
market the funds necessary for carrying oat the
undertaking. The necessity for repeating that warn-
big hu now become manifest, and the public cannot
be cautioned to-) strongly against lending itself to a
scheme which is adding to the military strength of
Russia, and at the same time encouraging the colossal
speculations of a Company which hu been mainly in-
strumental in bringing about that financial proem
in France, the reaction from which is now being felt
by the commercial world in England.
The Credit Mobilier, through its agents, is said to
be already busily sounding the English Money
Market as to the extent of the support it may look
fee in launching these Russian schemes, with the
view of attracting Britiah capital to projects which
it would be suicidal on our parts to %stew. While so
many channels are open in other portions of Europe
for the profitable investment of capital, it is to be
hoped that no encouragement will be given to
Russian railways, devised rather u military roads
than commerci►l highways, and above all, that the
Credit Mobilier and its associates may not be allowed
to drag England, even to the smallest extent, into the
difficulties they have created, and which not only
seriously affect French_ credit at home and abroad,
but as seri:wily endanger the political tranquillity of
the country. Let thus press repeat its warnings again
sad again ; they cannot be too widely disseminated,
more especially sow that the danger is no longer
contiegent but actually exists.

PUBLIC opinion, wherever it allowed free
peeesion, is too strong even for monopolies; and we
are glad to find that the London General Omnibus
Company is showing some signs of the salutary ope-
ration of this very useful power. The Company hod
a field day on Thursday last, and exhibited, first be.
bra the citizens at Guildhall, and next buses the
shief magistrate at the Mansion Rouse, mural SUS-
On of improved omnibus.. The account given of
the new earriages seems fairly satisfactory : we read
slimmed height, additional "kne►room," and im-
proved ventilation; of an Ingenious apparatus for com-
municatiog with the conductor by means of an indla-
robber tube, which is to product a soundlike a railway
whistle ; of a lamp, on the principle of a railway lamp.
"with an elongated stem and a valve attached to
carry off the effluvia ;" of a strap or rail so fixed as to
enable people to reach and leave their seats without
trespassing on the toes of their fellow-paseugers ;
last, not leas% of an improved access to the roof, by
which open-air pilau:gen may mond and desosid
without danger to life and limb.
These are all s'sps in the right direction ; and it is
to be hoped that no time may be last in substituting
the improved carriages for those which, to the great
discredit of the Company, have been so long suffered
to abuse the public patience. It is obvious to remark,
that the managers of the Association could not have
passed a more explicit condemnation on their pre-
sent equipages than by this exhibition, nor can
any better proof be afforded of the reemonablenese
of the posilic di:content than the fact that the Com-
pany have for some time had in their pour the
amplest means of removing it. It is for the public,
and for the Press as representing the interests of the
peblic, tome that there is no unnecessary delay in
substituting the improved for the unimproved
omnibuses on all the limes under the control of the
Association. The statement recently given in the
Daily News by' A Large Sharsholder,"of the financial
position o' the London General Omnibus Company,
proves that they cannot plead inability to act in this
respect as the interests of the public imperatively re-
quire. It appears from this statement, on the accuracy
of which we have every reason to rely, that the
Company are now in possession of 600 ousaibases,
that they divided 12* per oast. in July last, and
expect an increased dividend next January. The
annual net profit on each °melba. may be averaged,
it seems, at 1601. a year, giving on the whole
number a clear profit of 06,00 W. per annum,
amounting, on an estimated capital of 600,0001., to
about 16 per cent. The fall in the price of bryand
straw is also, as the correspondent has sot failed to
point out, an important element of Us:eased prospe-
rity ; and on the whole, if we are to take the sue of
the Company as it is stated by one who, in MINIS to
ample means of informatics. has presumably s OM
internst en its success, the present thiandal ps.
skim of the concern is sea that its mown
have no excise whatever for any farther 4s
in introducing those improvements whim!' eV

have so frequently promised and se repeatedly i
postponed. Wo don't want to nay anything
unnecessarily harsh or disagreeable, but we can-
not help remarking that on some, at least, of
their lines, improved omnibuses, if not actually in
regular work, ought long since to have been started,
at all events in experimental trips. Nor can any
sufficient reason be given for a failure to introduce
such simple improvements, and such increased vigi-
lance of supervision, u might easily have been
applied, even to the existing vehicles. There is no
reason, for instance, why the Company's omnibuses
should be worse regulated than they were when in
private hands ; and yet, unku we are to disbelieve
the written statements that reach us from all quar-
ter., such, in too many instances, is the cam
The managers of the Association have now proved
that they possess the power, if they choose to exert
it, of providing the metropolitan public with means of
transit which are at all events respectably and decently
commodious. If they don't speedily set abut em-
ploying these means foe the public benefit, there is
only one conclusion to be drawn. Oar belief
is, not from any special knowledge we pos-
sum of the managers of the London Omnibus
Company, bat from the gensrnl knowledge which
everybody by this time ought to have of the nature
of monopolies, that this trading Company will pay no
regard to the public convenience until it is clearly
proved to them that a continuance of such disregard
will tend to defeat their own objects. A little whole-
some competition, the establishment of a rival com-
pany, the vigilant attention of the Press, may succeed
in extorting from their self-interest that at-
tuition to the general accommodation which
it would be absurd to look for front any
other motive. Bo convinced are we of the real
importance of this matter to the every-day comfort
of the residents in the metropolis that we shall cer-
tainly not let it rest where it is. We want to see
the model omnibuses not only paraded before the
Mansion-house bet at work in the streets. They
ought to have been as long ego. If they do not make
a speedy appearance in the right place we shall feel
it a public duty to return to the charge, and learn, if
possible, the reason why.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

We hays mated letter from our correspondent
at Naples dated the 3rd. The King gives no sign of
yielding. "It is melancholy," writes our corres-
pondent, "to think of the results to which such
conduct may lead. Alleluias are discontented. The
nobility who have no careerthe ensployes who have
little pay—the native troops who are kept in rub-

serviesci totbs Swiss—tradesmen and merchants who
are suffering from a diminished or an annihilated com-
merce—and all those dependent grades of society who
see in the absence of foreigners, and in the high
price of articles of consumption, proofs of want and
suffering which stars them in the face. Such a
anion of opinion and teeing must sooner or later
produce its results, end the longer the delay the
more terrible they will be. Still the Ling appears
blind to the position and is resolved madly to rash
on. Can I not do what I like with my own r.

LIFE IN ALGIERS.-FIRST IMPRESSIONS.

MONDAY, Oc-r. 27.
Here we are, with no bedrcoma sod no sitting.
room. Most miserable after our beautiful passage of
47 hours from Marseilles. The sun was broiling when
we started, and we bad fine weather all the way.
We came over in a vessel ('he Osiris ) full of French
soldiers and emigrants-320 of the former, 70 of the
' latter, about as many women as men. A few pri-
soners were also on board. They practised equality
and fraternity, distributing themselves all over the
beat part of the deck as though they had a perfect
right to it, but were otherwise very well behaved.
In spite of the necessary crowding, they seemed never
to lose their good humour. The conduct of the sol-
diers wu admirable—perfectly goodoatured and quiet.
I never saw an English crowd of the same rank so
well behaved. When at length we landed we felt as
though we had stepped beck into the Arabian Nights :
jostling Arabs in dirty white cloaks, women reeling
along muffled up to the eyes in white muslin, negroes,
French, and Jews. Such strange looking figures!
Every description of creature appeared to be loitering
about on the quays. You will wonder at my emphatic
expressioa of misery, but the fact is, we ought to
have written for rooms, or have delayed awhile at
Marseilles. The races are going on, and have
brought 6,000 strangers into the town. Arabs
of all tribes, French militaires from the out stations,
and such a host of people that literally there is not a
bedroom to be bad in any of the hotels, nor apart-
ments elsewhere to hire. The old woman who " lived
in a shoe" was sumptuously accommodated compared
to our present chances. As I write, our courier
Giuseppe comes in after a second search—nothing to
be found.

Later—we have got a room, but no sofas, so are fain
to lie on the floor upon our cloaks to rest, after a
dinner of soup, mutton cutlets, tunny fish, radishes,
butter, apples, and excellent grapes. In fact, all the eat
able/ seem to be good. As I write, we have just been
called into another room, looking over the Place
towards the sea, to watch the return from the races—
a curious sight, about 100 Arabs prancing along, on
high saddles, and horseclothe of many colours,
spangled with gold.
6 o'Clack.—Tbe waiter comes in and lights the pa:
we did not expect gas in Algiers. To the north it is
still quite light, bat this room face a dark narrow
street; and as I look out I see French shops, and one
for "pens, ink, and papers." This reminds me of
the perfect English of an Arab, who came this morn-
ing to the ship, and after silently eyeing P., as if to
be sure be was not a Frenchman, offered to take our
bundle of shawls, saying interrogatively, "Go
ashore r

Well, no beds were to be bad, 50 we have ordered
our mattresses to be laid on the floor of the room
aforesaid, and mean to sleep as comfortably as we can
considering the draught under the doors. This
evening, however, a sudden thought struck us that
the proper and picturesque thing to do under the
circumstances wee to "take the bath," like any num-
ber of Eastern pilgrims before us from the day. of
Solomon downwards. Marshalled by Giuseppe and
a waiter, we went off through a dim arcade, a dimmer
street, and a dark covered passage; passing here a
fountain, and there a white mosque looming against
the evening sky, or a group of Arabs huddled in
their coloured drapery round the low arched door of
a coffee-shop. We pass many Bindbads, and one-eyed
Calendars more than seven. This is, indeed, an
Arabian Night. We have seen many of our old
friends alresdy—Hassatn, Haji Babe, Fatima, and
Zaleika. Indeed, the Moorish women, with their
white dresses swaddled up to the eyes, are ghastly
creatures, looking, as they stand about in the desk
passe" like ghosts or shrouded corpses, or that ter.
rible resurrectionist lady who would eat nothing but
rice in the day time. From one of these dark pea.
sego we turned, and suddenly found ourselves in a
real Arabian court, open to the blue sky of a warm
and most magnificent starlight night. It was built
of Moorish arches, two tiers, and as white as glebes.
ter : the dim lights showed a fountain in the centre,
shadowed by palm trees, and creepers trained thence
slanting to the upper gallery. Here—after all our
trials by sea and land, oar broiling sun, our bard
floor, sod our prospect of no beds—was a delicious
change; and 8. sank down upon the crimson divan,
averring that it was the most comfortable place he
had seen yet in Algiers, and there he meant to pus
the night. The attendant of the bath aroused WI
from this delusive hope, by entering, and demanding
in French how many baths were required.
There is nothing in the world like a warm bath for
refreshing tired travellers we came out brisk and
buoyant, and could feel inclined to make light
of our difficultiee, and enjoy the fun of seeing all the
extraordinary bipeds in the streets; making our way
through crowds of uniforms as we neared the hotel,
for two or three great dinners are in progress, given
by the authorities to French officers and Arab
sheiks. There are three tall Arabs, of high rank,
wearing the particular red cloak which denotes them
to be of consequence, all crouched round the tiniest,
most miserable little shop—a stall, where some kind
of eatables are to be had. And yet at times the Arab
will submit with a good grace to civilisation, and
show that he can enjoy good beds and good living
as much as his French masters. In particular we
heard much of the exquisitely refined behaviour of
one young Arab, introduced for the first time iato
European society. He had never sat on a chair before;
never eaten with a knife and folk; never been intro.
duced to Christian ladies, yet managed to acquit him-
self with such perfect ease and grace under his new
condition as to be the marvel of all present. Returning
to the hotel we made pretend of going to bed upon the
mattresses, under the comfortable conviction that the
noise of staging, whistling, church bells, horses and
rattling carts would keep us awake all night ; and the
next morning, at half.past five, the cannons sounded,
the little quiet we had at intervals entirely ceased,
and the bustle of the day began. And row for a woe-
ful adventure. Being very hungry in the early morn-
ing, I bethought me of certain sponge cakes lett upon
the table from supper the previous night ; I began to
eat, when, to my horror, I PAW that the cakes were
covered with white and brown insects. I must
have eaten a swarm ; and began to have
terrible vlsioos of poisonous entomological life, such
lively apparitions as the solar microscope discloses
to gaping crowds of horrified children. I darted
instinctively to the water jug, but was forcibly re-
strained from that natural solace by the hasty assur-
ance of my companions (backed by the guide book).
that Algerian water was full of " blood suckers."
Ignorant of blood-suckers, and filled with vague
alarm, I next made a dash at a champagne bottle,
and in my agitation shot H. violently with the
cork—and thus amidst peala of laughter commenced
our seooad day in Algiers.

The Ga►deners' Chronicle speaks in terms of high
prelim of the lets removal of trees in Hyde-park. The
elms which have been removed had beci)tne daogerons
to passers by. Some of the old elms to Ilyde•park aro
knocked ever by every heavy gale. The elm is in its very
nature one of the most trials of trees after it has reached
the period of maturity ; and no experienced forester wil-
lingly stands beneath the heavy branch of an old elm leaded
with summer foliage. In 1851 on. of the %oilmen in the
