It 1. said that jaalou.y prevent, an appointment urjver sally acknowledged to be necessary, and that the present director, would not williagly permit the pretention of one who, if he uiumed all the responsibility, would naturally also claim a leading control but, surely, the tafety of the public and interests of the proprietor, should be preferrei to mere prejudices.

The London and Xorth WesternWestern Company meets on the 3d of November, to treat of an amalgamation with the Midland Company, and thut add one million sterling to lis yearly income a revenue which cannot be intrusted to an unknown or irrospon.ible Voir J. or to uncontrolled officials.

Sir, I'ray read the following, and say whether I have not a right to assum. tb character in which I eubncr.be mjtelf: On Monday se'aaight I wu at Newport (Uon moutluhire), intending to go on to Bristol, in order to be present at a sale of property at 2 o'clock on that day. The steamer would hare taken me for a but it would cot arrive in Bristol until 3 o'clock; consequent! v. I took a ticket at the railway aUtion by the hall put 10 o'clock train, by which I wu told that I should get into Bristol by half put 1. Unfortunately for me, the train wa.

not punctual. I waited at the aation quarter hour after quarter hour, until aa hour had elspwd from the time the train wu due. The station clerk could give to conjecture of th cause of the detention, excepting tlut the line had been opened that morning to Caruarihen. lVeeettly the train arrived aa hoar after it time and I hnnied ofTbr it to tbo l'usace. and thence to Uri.to!.

which I reached an hour after tune, an! just in season to see tne comiany leaving tne ale room, the beicg over, II Ik.t mnrf. and I ahouM not have Veen the purchaser even if I bad been present. But it might have been otherwise, ud I might cave net an aarsnugenu. investment solely from the een turable and unexplained irrerularities of the railwar nun pany. A.

it wu, 1 paid lUs. for my journey to Brittol instead of and the anxiety and disappointment incident to the circumxtance. I have mentioned. The same I went on to London by the Great Weitern (uodcr the same msnagemont), and, after being detained at lid lot and eloogh waiting tbe passsge of other truti, 1 sr lived at l'addirgton 25 minutes after time. Lost nicb.

1 returned by tbe toail lrain from London to Exeter, where I arrived 55 minutes after the hour fixed by the time Uble, resolving to a. ence nlyself for the tedious protraction of my nigbt trsvellibg by adding one to the many who hare reported similar grievance to Ike 1 ma. Barnstaple, Oct. 'JO. A COMPLAISANT.

j'EKsIAX llERETIli A.VD EXECUTIONERS. Tlle 1 1 attempt to assassinate the Shah of Persia wu ma le bv tao perron, who belonged to the religion, sect of tbe Babi. This wu tbe only oonfstsion they made in spite of the inex pressible torment, of the rack, and, though their mutcits writhed under redhot pincers, though their bone, were crutbed by suu their lip. remained closed, and ther was, We are Babia." The Babis are echi.mau and they pray to the prophet, but they prefer their prayei in a aauer wmca is somewcafc aiuereufc irom vce aevo. tional exercisps of orthodox Moslcmim.

This sect ws. foundol Sjbnut 15 yean ago by a man of the name of Bth, whom the King ordered to be shot. and who wu shot oordintly. The most devoted among his followen rle.1 to aengain, where tbey were attacked by the rung a It 1 Hv.1 tKat all cf tt.n man wnmM had been put to tbe sword, and that not a single Babi coull be leund to disturb the equanimity of tbe true believen but intolerance hu alwav. the same effect, and Babi Ao: trine, took root and spread apace, and at thi.

moment there is a town in the kingdom without it. contreration t.f secret Babi The Government adheres to tbe sy.tetn of penecuxiou wmcu come, so natural to a reraiin, and the heretics have consequently many opportunities to assert tho purity of their laith by martyrdom. The prophet Bab him slf told his disciple, that the road to Paradise lay through tbe chamborof torture. If this be true, ther is no deny icg it that the present Shah ia very kind to the Babia, for he docs hi. best to them to he.

Ten. 1 lu lut decree treati of the utter extermination of the heretics. Sow. connidir isg the peculiar character of Oriental ethics, nobody could end lault witb tho remain if the poor sectarian, were simply and quicklr put to death, but the manner in which the capital sentence i. executed, the circum.tsnce.

which precede tbe last blow, the torments whirh consume the body until life end. in a lut korriblo couvuhion tlicua are so revolting that the very thought lushes oce's blood run cold. Counties, blow. fall. ing bard and fut on tire backs and tbe feet of tbe unfortunates, and the' singeing of the limb, with redhot irun.

are mere ouuiuiuopiao toriueata. aod he to whom ther lire I applio.1 may thanlc tn.l for being treated so knienily. i.ui looc a. vnose wretcnea. who.

with their eves nut it. aie compelliid to eat their' own ean, which have been cut on, ami eat tbem raw. lxmkat others, boe teeth nave been broxen out by the band, of tbe executioner, offering their bare bead to the hammer which is to breik their skulls. Or look at th. woful aoectacle of the bazaar.

lighted up by heretics, whose breuts aad are drilled through and made to contain burning candle. I have seen them marching through the bazaar with a band of music preceding them. Some of the candles were burnt down, and the wick and grease burnt right in the quivering Cash. Nor are these the only torment which the inventive cruelty of the Oriental, bss derived. They take the skin tbe sole of their feet, them i tbey would shoe a hone, and after this they compel tbe victims to run a raee.

1 shall never forget the acone. Sot a groan had escaped him he bad borne th wont torment in gloomy silence, but now they ordered him to risoand run he mako. an attempt, hut tbe fiesh is weaker than the mind he and fall. For mercy, uke, give him the cos) iJt and make an end of it. So the executioner Nourishes the knout, it comes down upon tbe quivering feet, be leaps up, he ruabes forward, and That i.

the beginning of tbe end. The end itself ia that tho rcarred. mutilated body is hung to a tree by one foot and one hand, with the head downwards, and then every person may hare a shot at it. I uw bodies literally torn to pieces by not leu than 150 bullets. Fortunate sre these who are strangW.t, stoned, or auffocated fortunate, ton, are those who ue tied to a cannon, or who fall under the the dagger, the hammor, or the club.

Sot only the executioners, but also the populace, take part in thi. butchery. The judge now aad then present some Crown officer or dignitary with a few Babia, and tbe Per aian feela delighted and honoured' by shedding the blood of a gagged and defenceless man. The infantry, cavalry, artillery, the King', guards, th guilds of the butchers, baken, kc all took part in tb bloody acone. A certain Babi wu sent a present to the officer, of the garrison tbe commanding general had th fint cut at him, and th other officers followed, each with hi a word, according to rank aad seniority.

Tb Persian troop are butchers, but Dot warrior. On. Babi wa sent to th. Imaum Grume, who killed him offhand. The Islam hu no notion of charity.

After their death, tb bodies of th. Babi are cut Into halves, and cither nailed to th. gate or thrown oat to th dog and Kfluer Ztxtung. The KxrEvsz or Pubijo Jubttce. It ii abown, by a Parliamentary paper famed within th.

Mil Sarah Hardwicke, th daughter of a citizen of London, died, in th 73d year of her age, on the wth of last July, bequeathing to th. charitable institution, of tbe city of London a sum of money exoeeding The old la ly wu pounced of freehold estate, and personal property, consisting principally of money in tha funds, and being a person of very eccentric habits had lived for several year in a email house at Chesterfield, attended by one woman servant, Five nieces, who are her next of kin and heir at law, arrive ber, but om differences having arisen between them and their aunt, no intercourse had taken place fur several yean calculated to remove the cause of separation. In the year 18 lo Miu Ilardaicke ooc.ultod her solicitor to the disposition of her proterty, and gave him instructions to prepare ber will in conformity with the mode ia which it wu executed. A gentleman who had married one of Uiu Ilardwickes niece, attended the funeral, and received from Mr. Shipton, ber executor, a oopy of the will, in which th.ro wu no ration of her relation bnt he exprea eJ no ur prise or dissatisfaction upon ascertaining the mode in which she had diapored of her property, knowing that the intercourse between her and tbe numbers of her family had ecasod.

Ur. Shipton duly proved th will in th Prerogative Court of Canterbury, and furnithed tb. Lord Major and Chamberlain of London with copies, in which, after bequeathing all her personal eatate and whatsoever aod wheresoever, upon the trusts, after payment of her debt and testamentary expenses, and a legacy of 100., upon trurt that her executor should eall and convert into money such pait. ai should not consist of money, the testatrix proceeds and pay, apply, aod Jiipoae thereof among such of Ustitutiona within tbe city of London, and in inch ahare. and a.

my uid executor and the Chamberlain of th. city of London, and th. Lord Mayor of th. aaid city for tbe time beingat my their discretion think fit. And I direct that th.

receipt of the treasurer and trsaiurjrs forth time being of institution, shall be sufficient discharges of my aaid executor for the aaid money so applied and in making thia bequest for tha benefit of th city of London I have had regard to my uid late father having been in bu.inees within that city arid acquired there a conaiderable pal of the property which I derived fr im him." Probate wa. ready to be transmitted to the llaak to hare the transfer ma le, and Mr. Shipton wu readv to concur with the Chamberlain and Lord Mayor of London in execution of the trusts of the will. Tbe hoi band of th. testatrix' nieo before alluded to wa.

communicated v.h, and the executor wrote to three medical geatlemen who fur year, had attended profeuionally upon tho testatrix, their testimony to the condition of her mind before aud at the period of the m.kiog of the will. Th. gentlemen who were concerned in the administration of the eff.c;. found that it would he their duty to appropriate a fund amounting to upwards of and determined to act promptly an i with a little expense a. possible, conv therefore, applied to eminent legal mou for their opiniouH "JiBS r7 fertile source of danger has, however, beeo to whether the unction of tha Court of Cbmearr wo considerably reduced.

F.t'i'iiring, as railway do, superior rail to bear the ucreaad strain now thrown upon mem, tt la painful to observe that, instead of keeping par.

with the ae ceuitie. of the cue, the railmakar have allowed their pro ductivn to deteriorate very greatly indeed, the utmost, caution is now rctuired in the purchase of rails. With every security afforded by name and ia th. trs 1, the greate.t disappointment, are daily arising aad the result promines to be very eTiou, nnless instant measure ar. adopted by the piiacipal mak to retrieve their character in thU reipecU Many of the rail recently eupplied have tbown aymptom.

of failure at an a usually early period, and a're, in many In.tancea, ia a won. condition after two or three yean' wear than old and much lighter rail, which have been aubjected to precisely the earn, duty for 12 to Id yean. Ho grave hat th aspect of thi matter become, and so genera ha. been tb. complaint, that on.

railway company hat com. to the determination of rolling it own nils, and ha. given instructic for erecting work, for the purpose. Under all th disadvantage, however, to which alloaionhu baen made, it ia, after all, remarkable how very few accident have arisen irom a defective atate of the road itself. Th.

circumstance of a train run ning off the hna i. very rare, and when ructn an event doe occur, it may generally be attributed to soma palpable neglect of the platelayer', to some defect in the machinery, or to ao.r.e designedly placed on th line. Th latter i unhappily a very fertile source of danger, and on against which, where a moTbid desire to inflict isjury guides th miscreant hand, it i very difficult indeed to guard. It ia little know how frequent, now ingenious, and how vans' 1 these attempt have become, and although from the vigilance excreted, and from fortunate and providential eanaea, the re daiuago effected ha. been far lew tbaa cmld hsv.

been auppoaed, it ia lamentable to think that, ia addition to the ordinary risk, of rapid locomotion.it ahould b. necessary to guard againrt an diabolical a mode of wreaking a petty vengeaccu or cf gratifying a miacbievoui disposition. Numerous ic.tances might be given, which would excite surprise from the cunning design exhibited, and the care apparently exercised in selecting a apnt likely to ba. fraught wth the greatest amount of mischief; but th. detail wonk! occipy too much apace.

"The rapid derelopement of general traffic on all th. main arterial lice in the kingdom, and the transfer to them of much of the heavy trade which wu formerly carried on by canals, have caused a very great extension of aiding jXCGtauicxUtinn and this by multiplying the point, aid creinga in the main line, has pro tauto increased the risk attending them. Anything which break, th. continuity of the raUs is Lecmaarily an evil, and tends in a certain degree to develop danger and these frequent 'turns out can. not be avoided on a line of heavy traflW, tb.

railwar manager i. compelled to rely on regulation, and s'guafe, aid to that extent to incur the additional hazard which attend, tbe employment of officials from whose neglect, or want cf discretion, the mosfrfatal eonswiueaee. may at any moment arise.
