Whether this eminent thinker originat ed the Iden is not clear, but fliere Is no doubt that his Influence assisted in the establishment of the service under the auspices of a royal decree. Later on these earliest omnibuses ceased to run owing to lack of support, nnd did not reappear in Paris until 1827, when Lnfitte, the banker, who was among the largest proprietors, was credited with originating the re vived service. The new conches started to ply In London on July 4, 1829, when the first one left Paddington for the Bank of England, nnd another ran from the bank to the Yorkshire Stingo, New road. These first British busses were known from the man who organised them ns “ Shilllbeers,” and the conduc tors of the first two are said to have been the sons of British naval officers. Three horses drew them, and they car ried twenty-two passengers, all inside. —London Standard.
