stances, poor excuse why not initiate some
localities Of tile old countries, who, though they

10 small places be oppressed any more, 20 as to
furnish police force, ure still protected better
by far, than we arc here Say. for instance,
out Of small place Of four hundred inhabitants,
there are drafted each night, eight citizens, four
in the fore part oftLe night, and four afler mid
night. 10 change hourly from the watch.house
aud, though there is more cause for burglary,
ret there IS not one case occurs there to five
here. Why cannot the citizens Of two or three
blocks throughout the ci.y, agree among them
selves to something similar, and e1termiuate,
and keep extrrminated, these night-prowling,
thieving, incendiarY fraternity, and teach them
such lessons Us will be terror to them, rather

The e1cursionists By the Great Eastern ar-
rived off this point att o'clock this morning.
the steamer haring through design or n1isnan.
agemcnt run about thirty miles out Of her
course. Tie atmosphere was still and sitting,
aud after night Of horrors they rushed eagerly
upon the propeller Shrtvcr, the fist boat
brought alnngside, and in other steamers
Nearly th: whole company, numbering about
e,G'u, were funded on the burning beach.
Without exception, the c1cursionists are dis.
gussed aud indignant ut the trip and its manage
ment throughout. From tho moment Of stuff
ing they were made the prey of the most reck.
less avasice and in no single instance, so far az
! am informed, were the simplest rights Of the
ticket holders regarded.
There was no accommodation wha!erer for
baggage in all the a,nple store.ro rooms of tha
El,ip, and articles were left loosely on deck,
The grossest faroritiRm was shown in ths dis
position Of state. .ruoms, aud lsdies were the
victims Of imposition in regard 10 them. No
detiui'e information could be had Of an, bodr,
and the responsibility was shifted from one 10
another. until the passenger, in despair, gave
himself up to discomfort
A large number of ladies, aud nearly MI the
gentlemen, slept or stragg'ed On rude mattres-
hcs on the decks IN dirt and disorder, and were
exposed to smart storm Of rain before the
ho II Of waking. Those who had state rooms
we're Gro xded together, aud suffered from ter.
rib!e heat apd tie great rocking Of the vessel.
This morning it was impossible, without
bribery, to obtain water for washing, or the
pialnest article Of the toilet. Tho reporters
we're, with one exception, roughed with the
rest. The fortunate exception spent the night
in hen COOP An effort was made to provoke
music from Uodworth's Land for dancing, but
after few melancholy strains, the musicians
refused further discourse unless they we're paid
twenty y-five dollars,
lighted cigar set a mattrass on fire in the
middle Of the night aud the riggiOg was endsn-
cred. There seelnsd to be no discipline what
ever among the officers Of the ship. The rud-
der.ehain broke, and for nearly half an hour
the steamer was guided BY the engines alone.
Thu wheels we're frequently deserted.
The restaurant Was one grand swiudle. It
was given out, as soon as the people sat down
to the first supper, that the most necessary ar.
ticles had run out and only heary fees to the
walters, after long waiting, produced any food
at att. Drackith wafer b1 ought, in some cases,
twenty-five cents CLAUS; aud the confusion
and filth were simply revolving. There was
not single expression Of pleasure.
The general indignation took the form Of 4
formal meeting on deck this morning. Mr.
William Fulmer acted as Chairman and Dr.. J.
Howe as Secretary, both Of New York. 4 se.
ries Of bitter resolutions were passed, aud OBJ
tanned large number Of influential aiguatures.
