About 50 drivers ard firemen had asterabted at the Rail-

that he himself was one. He had ben some year in the
*mice of the continent% and he eoold only say that he was
perfectly satisfied with his employment. Hs had never pro-
reed a strike, and never wish .d a strike. He believed
every man at Camden ewer:sine d the same views, and as it
was now ateseletely neceoury that they should speak nut
what their views and srshi a were he should sugars', as be
understood some reedutions heel been prepared, that they
should be mooned and pas' to the /airing. (Hear, bear )
