TRAVELLING ON THE PENNSYLVANIA RAIL
RoADs.-We are informed, by our Pttsburg cores
pendent, that the Pennsylvania railroads are in
very deplorable condition, particularly between
Philadelphia and Harrisburg So bad is it, that the
trains travel about fifteen miles An hour, when, if
pace was kept with the progress Of the age, and
with railroads in other parts Of the country double
and even treble that speed, could be easily accom-
plished The celebrated horse Trustee troted TWEEN.
ty miles within an hour; but in Pennsylvania the
locomotive is reduced below that speed and fifteen
or sixteen miles is considered excellent time; yet
the charges on this road are most cxhorbtant-
three cents mile, instead Of cent and half, or
even one cent for which some Of our Northern rail-
roads carry passengers at speed Of from thirty to
forty miles an hour. A speed Of fifty miles an hour
is far safer on the railroads Of New England than of
fifteen miles an hour on the Pennsylvania track
Then the cars so old and filthy, and the passen-
gers are more fatigued by travelling one hundred
miles on such road than thousand miles over a
decent Line. BY the bye, that was a very unworthy
trick to give out that the passengers going to and
returning from the Pittsburg Convention could be
carried at half price. When delegates and others
applied, they were told that unless they could bring
Fifty persons together, there would be no rsduction
That, Of course, was impossible, and the humbug
stood revealed. And all this Is done In enlightened,

DANGEROUS SEA BATHING During the last few
weeks, We have seen accounts in the newspapers of
a young lady who lost her life by bathing on New
port beach Two persons recently lost their lives at
Deal, near Long Branch, and two lives have also
been lost at Cape May. These melancholy occur
rences generally take place every at all these
watering places, but it is seldom we have to make
record Of accident of this nature at the east end
of Coney Island, which presents beach Of q most
regular description, and affords as safe place for
sea bathing as any in the world. The sea bathing
at Newport, Long Branch, Rockaway and Cape
May is every where dangerous, in certain stages of
the tide to persons bathing; yet, people from this
cty and various parts Of the country crowd to such
dangerous places in preference to visit to Coney
Island which is safe place for bathing and far su
perior to any Of these and unequalled in Europe or
America. Yet, strange to say, no capitalists in
this city have seen it to their advantage to erect
splendid hotel near Coney Island; and few Of those
Of the wealthy classes who resort to sea bathing
ever think Of visiting Coney Island.

Interesting Discoveries in Persia.

We have had the pleasure Of listening to let
ter written in Persia, to gentaman in this city,
which gives account Of some recent and most
interesting discoveries in that country, The
writer is q scientific gentleman Of the highest
standing, an American, and one whose position
in Persia ia pledge Of the correctness Of his
details
The line between Persia and Turkey has been
defined with that exactness which peace and So
curly demand, and soldiers have, by both gov
ernments, been placed upon the disputed territory
to defend the rights Of Turkey and Persia. And
for many years the soldiers have been in the
practice Of coming into collision. To avoid this
bloodshed, md settle definitely the boundary line
between the nations, England and Russia have
induced Persia to consent to a mixed commission
which should embrace England, Russia, and
Persia. That commission is now engaged in es-
tablishing the line between Persia and Turkey.
Col Williams, well known to many Americans
as a man Of character and talents, is the English
Commissioner.
In the prosecution Of this work the Commission
ers have come upon the remains of the ancient
palace shushan, mentioned in the sacred books
Of Esther and Daniel together with the tomb of
Daniel, the Prophet. The locality answers to
the received tradition Of its position, and the in
ternal evidence, arising from its correspondence
with the description Of the palace recorded in the
sacred history, amount almost to demonstration.
The reader can turn to Esther, chap. i. '. 8.
there he will read Of pavement Of red, and
blue, and white, and black marble in that palace /"
That pavement stU ezists, and, as described by
Col Williams, corresponds 70 the description
given thus in the sacred history, And in the mar
bic columns, delipidated ruins, the sculpture and
the remaining marks Of greatness and glory that
are scattered round, the Commissioners read
the exact truth Of the record made by the sacred
penman.
Not far from the palace stands tomb on it 10
sculptured the figure Of a man bound hand and
foot, with hugo lion in the act Of springing upon
bim to devour him. No history could speak
more graphically the story Of Daniel in the lions
Den. The Commissioners have with them an
able corps Of engineers and scientific men, and
most interesting discoveries may be expected.
The Persians arrow-heads are found upon the
palace and the tomb. Glass bottles, elegant as
those placed upon the toilet table Of the ladies OF
our day, have been discovered, with other indioa-
tions Of art ana refinement which bear out the
statements Of tho Bible. Thus, twenty five hun
bred years after tho historians Of Esther and
Daniel made their records, their histories are
verified BY The peaceful movements Of the nstione
Of our day. Boston Chronicle
