THE ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN AND
ERIE RAILROADS.&C. friend of ours has re-
ceived the following letter from a gentle
man of New York who recently went home
from this city via the above named roads.
1t appears that he had procured tickets
from Louisville to New York by another
route, but, on his arrival in Cincinnati, was
induced by the extraordinary comforts of
the passenger cars on the Erie road to
change his mind. He therefore sends back
these tickets, and says:
Our trip from New Orleans to Louisville
was tedious one, but as soon as we reached
the Erie road things changed, and | am
happy to record that everything was AS
satisfactory as it had been represented to
be by you. In fact, l think it will u!ti-
mately be the only swift, sure route North,
and, with the many comforts embraced, can
not fail to be so. Will you please see my
friend - -, Canal street, and tell
him the many advantages to be derived
by taking this route in preference to any
other.
Yours truly,

THE DOOMED MAN.-Governor Warmoth
having decided not to interfere with the
sentence which consgns Bazaar to the gal
lows, the law will take its course to-day
within the walls of the Parish Prison. Bazaar
has entertained some hopes that he would
receive a reprieye, or that his sentence
would be changed to that of life conine-
ment in our State Penitentiary. Efforts
have been made to have mercy shown him,
but his crime was terrible one. and to-day
he will answer for it with his life. priest
is with him almost constantly, and he seems
to have made his peace, confessing that he
killed Cobez, and repents the bloody deed.
