can perform gun drill; he can fall motionless, as though
deed, at the word of command ; he can climb op a lamp post,
jump over a stkli, hop on one leg, cony a bmket In his
mouth, and run away when he is told that a policeman is
coming.

The truthfulness and power of these descriptions
must be felt by everybody ; and they are not " show"
specimens; we have taken them almost at random;
every page of the book is very nearly as good, and
some may possibly be a little better. We wish to
call attention to the fact that it would be unjust to
Mr. Bala to judge of his performance by these ex-
tracts, good as they are. It is the uniformity of this
peee, so to speak, that is so surprising. Many
writers can par him in a short " spurt," but then
Mr. Ws is never slow.

We have dwelt principally on one, by far the
moat remarkable. feature of Mr. Sales book. His
experience of life and his knowledge of a certain
kind are both cousiderable, and his reading appears
to be wide, though, we should imagine, superficial
and miscellaneous. As long uhe keeps to his proper
line, that of describing what he sees and knows,
no one can be more entertaining.

TEE OTTOMAN RAILWAY COMPANY.

The investigation into the charge against the
Ottoman (Smyrna to Aidin) Railway Company, re-
hired to in our impreesion of yeaseday, has ter.
'ablated in the adoption by the eommittee of the
Stock Exchange of the severe resolution that the
shares be expunged from the official list. The com-
mittee consider the case a flagrant one, and have de•
aided that their " resolution " shall be publicly
posted ep in the Stock Exchange. It is well
known that any company applying to the Stock Ex-
change for the appointment of a settling day in the
shares and for their quotation in the official list must
be in a position to prove that a certain proportion of
the capital has been bona fide subscribed for, and the
first payment duly made thereon. The Ottoman Rail-
way Company, the first announcement of which took
play In May, 1867, satisfied the committee in theme
respects, and their shares were consequently ad-
mitted. The investigation now instituted has eon-
shred the committee that the subscription was not
of a bona fide character, and that the settlement was
obtained by means of misrepresentation. It apposes
from an examination of the bankers.' books and other
evidence, that a certain amount of capital was paid
in to the credit of the company, merely with a vie.
to enable them to par the ordeal, and was subse-
quently withdrawn. A similar trick wee played
some years ago by one, if not more, of the abortive
gold mining companies, and the punishment,
upon detection, was similar to that now de.
creed. In the present instance, however, there
is no doubt that a farther investigation will
ensue, for the names compromised are highly re-
spectable. The board of this company consists of
the following gentlemen, viz., Sir Macdonald
Stephenson (chairman) ; Messrs. Philip P. Myth,
Eric C. Smith, Wm. Gordon Thomeon, Captain
Daniel Warren, and Major-General Tremenheere.
The names of all these gentlemen likewise stand
upon the original prospectus of the company.

which I believe to be quite

he is

unwell. One explanation current of the C&01111 of
his absence is that he was furious at the Count de
Moray's speech, which he considered u in
opposition to the spirit of his own. It is
asserted that the Empress went to his
room to beg him to make his appearance,
and told him that his absence would produce a very
bad effect among the many deputies who had come
with Count de Morny, but that all her pleading was
in vain. The truth of these stories is, of course,
very doubt fuL The fact of the Emperor's absence from
the ball, and that no explanations of the unusual
circumstance has been given, remains. It is
also certain that many of his intimate counsellors,
and probably Count de Morny among them, have
long been using earnest efforts to divert him
from what appears to be his settled purpose, but as
I hays already observed, Count de Morny's speech
doss not differ essentially from the Emperor's,
which he must have felt he had no authority to
explain away.
There is much talk of an autograph letter re-
ceived by the Emperor from the King of Sardinia,
in which the latter, after warmly thanking the
Emperor for his sympathy with the Piedmoutess
nation, promises that Sardinia will abstain from
any provoking or aggressive act towards Austria,
and will calmly await the course of events with-
out seeking to precipitate them.
The number of ships of war now either armed or
arming in different French ports is, by a recent
estimate, stated to be not less than 200.
