The view through the great gateway into the court of the
Temple of Edfou is admirably chosen as characteristic of
that stupendous style of architecture. The Temple of
Karnak furnishes several very striking pictures, and here
we have the only one in which the Prince and his suite are
introduced, es it was expressly directed that in taking the
views se figures should be introduced but those which
were native to the spot. His royal highness is seated on
a huge fallen block of granite, with Colonel Koppel, Dr.
Stanley, the late General Bruce, Dr. Minter, and Mr. Col-
unbent), our Consul-General in Egypt, also seated on pieces
of granite or standing near, while at some little distance,
sitting on the sand, are Mr. Hood with Mrs. Hood and a
lady companion, with a little son of Mr. Hood, dinned in •
Knickerbocker snit—a party of fellow txtvellan who were
invited to join the royal suite. There are many excellent
views taken at Thebes, one of the most interesting being
She ruins of the great court of the Temple of Medeenet
Hibou, where lie the ruins also of a Christian church,
once enclosed in this singular spot.
The views of Jeliukilem and the many places of sacred
history around, which were visited, form a most interesting
pert of the collection. The Garden of Gethsemane
is seen to be most religiously preserved by a
high wall surrounding it, and within it reside
two monks. Had it not been for these precautions
the grand old olive trees would have been stripped of every
twig, and probably even cut to the ground by travellers
anxious to carry home relics of the sacred spot. There is
no view of the Cave of Macpslah and the sacred tombs of
Abraham and Isaac, which the Priam was permitted to
visit, but there is one showing the great Mosque of Hebron,
which encloses the ancient burial-place of the patriarchs.
At Nablous the Prince was shown the ancient Samaritan
Pentateuch kept in the synagogue there, and believed to be
the identical tables of the law given to the Jews by Aaron.
Of Damascus there are several very characteristic pic-
tures, and not the least interesting one is a portrait of Abd-
el-Kader,
taken during the Prince's visit. Bealbee, with
its splendid ruins of classic architecture, furnishes some

very interesting picture, not however included in the set
which are to be published, representing the Prince dressed
in a fez cap and Burnous cloak, with all his suite at
luncheon under a wide•spreadiog fig tree.
The exhibition is one altogether of very great interest,
apart from being the record of the Prince of Wales's
journey to the East ; for by this very artistic application
of photography we are enabled so completely to realise
the scenes, that we feel as if we had actually visited them
ourselves.

SIR RICHARD MAYNI AND THR ONINIRUISHR—
The Chief Commissioner of the robes and the director of
the London General Omeibne Oerepacy have come into
violent collision, and all sorts of hostile
iproceedings are
is threatened. It known to three who are n the habit of
ascending omnibuses and taking their seat on the " knife-
bard" that there is an iron railing running along each side
of the carriage against which they generally place their feet.
This part of the omnibus the directors determined to
utilise, and accordingly they turned it to advertising
purposes, so that now large boards are placed against
this iron railing on the top of the omnibuses, giving the
carriage the appearance of immense height, and making
them look like huge advertising vans. Sir Richard Mayne
iu the first, instance gently remonstrated against this bold
innovation upon old established vehicular customs, but the
directors, more alive to profile than to the commissioner's
suggestions, treated him with contemptuous silence. A more
decided tone wu then taken, and the directors were ordered
to remove the unsightly boards, but they refused to do so,
and at present the matter is in lite, the Commiaaiooer
of Police being resolved that the omnibuses shall not be
turned into advertising vane, and the directors being deter-
mined on the other hand that they will not forego so pro-
Stable a source of income.
