consists of fifteen men and five inspectors. Each man bas
a beat cf four or five miles, and it is his duty to ate that
the workmen remove all their implements out o the way,
that the line is perfectly clear, and to apprebenl trespas-

to physical force ; which the teetotallers, taking advantage
of, left the room, dee.ating that Mr. Macconnell was. a
