The Nestorians.-The London Times con-
tains the following letter, relating to the mas
Eacre of the HISTORIANS, and the success of the
Circassians:
TELLS, September 10.
The Kurds, W no for long period have en-
tertained ferocious hatred 10 this Christian
republic, situate in the centre Of the Mahome-
tan states, committed on their invasion all
binds OF atrocities. The villages were piIlaged,
women and young girls were violated, and, in
fact, the massacres committed were worthy of
Aplundering tribe having in their power de-
tested enemy. In the districts adjoining Dzu-
malesk might be seen during several days the
Christian villages on fire. Some Of those will
lagos were burned by the inhabitants them
selves, who fled before the Pacha's hordeS, de-
stroying their property to prevent it falling in
20 the bands of the Kurds. The result Of this
abomnabe outrage was, that the HISTORIANS,
after much bloodshed, surrendered their terrific
~ 10 the Pasha of Mousul. This is deplora-
bic event, as the HISTORIANS Of Dzumalesk for
med small state well worthy of liberty
They were brave, industrious, and peaceabe
DR.. Grant, who has for a long time resided at
Urma, has left for Mousul, where he was abou.
70 take some sseps in favor Of those prosecuted
Christians.

Internal IDlpropemenfs.-Since the Great
Western Railroad went into operation, we
have seen no project for internal improvement
which so fully impresses US with its beneficial
Importance, as the plan of continuing the Fitch
burg Railroad to Brattleboro, and thence across
the Green Mountains 10 Burlington. Such
direct communication between Boston and the
western line of Vermont, within a short dis
tsnce OF Montreal, the great inland capital of
The British provinces, holds out the prospect Of
advantages, which, we should think, would
unite the energies Of all the capitalists of Eng
land, Massachusetts,, Vermont and the Canadas,
10 carry il into complete effect Such an ave-
nue. OF communication, when completed, would,
by the means Of the Cunard steamers, place
Montreal within fourteen DAYS Of London;-
for distance is now computed by measure of
time and not of length. Miles and leagues are
words which are almost obsolete, days and
hours having taken their place in the modern
vocabulary.
The Fiichburg Railroad will shortly be fin
ished. 1t is TO be opened for travel from
ChaTeslown TO Waltham in a few days. An
other summer will probably be sufficient 10
enable the contractors, aided by the indomita-
bic perseverance Of A. Cfocker, Esq, the orr
gnal protector, 10 complete the road. This
road passes through rich and productive sec
ton of Massachusetts,, Astounding in all the ag-
IicultuTal wealth of the climate, and manulac-
lures of almost every kind. II continued from
Fitchburg 10 BrattIeboro, the whole county of
Franklin might empty its superluous wealth
into the warehouses and upon the wharves Of
our city, and receive whatever merchandise
might be required in return, in less than TWEEN
ty-four hours. We rejoice to see that our
neighbers in Vermont are awakened 10 a con-
victlon OF the Importance of this improvement,
and are pursuing measures TO promote il. The
Brattleboro PheniX has call for meeting 10

THE MILITIA act

The last Vermont Patriot has the following
paragraph, explanatory Of amendments made
by the last Legislature TO the Military Law
The Militia Act Of last year has been slight
iy modified, and we should think for the bet
ter. If we have a correct understanding of the
matter the burdens Of uniformed companies
have been lightened. The provision requiring
them TO furnish tents has been abolished; they
are required 10 muster once in two years only
and are relieved from taxation BY having 81
deducted from their list, instead OF 81. With
respect 10 enrolled militia, we do not learn that
any additional burdens are imposed on them,
except that the officers aud musicians are H.
able at the disc reton of the commander of the
Regiment, TO be annually called out 10 drill
Judges and Clerks of Courts, Sherifls and their
Deputies, Judges of Probate and Registers
and some Others are required 10 pay 50 per an
mum instead Of doing military duty. The
mode of collecting fines is changed back TO the
old systematic commanding officer OF compa-
ny TO amerce & appeal allowed to field officers,
and this we think is perfectly right.
