RULES FOR RAILROAD TRAvELERs.-The Bos-
ton Commercial Bulletin has the following
hints, which are worth remembering:
Applicants for tickets on railroads can be
elected from the cars If they do not offer the
exact amount of their fare. Conductors are not
bound to make change.
Passengers who loose their tickets can be
elected from the cars, unless they purchase a
second one.
Passengers are bound to observe dScorum in
the oars, and are obliged to comply with all
reasonable demands to show tickets.
Standing upon the platform, or otherwise
violating a rule of tho company, renders a
person liable TO be put from the train.
No person has any right to monopolize more
seats than he has paid for; and any article left
on the seat, while the owner is temporarily
absent, entities him to the place on his re-
turn.

ENTERING the Hammond street Station
house, last night, we saw three or four excited
men being searched by three or four equally ex-
cited watchmen. We at once prepared our
selves to be the recipient of an immense item.
Pockets were dived into, carpet sacks rumaged
and hats, boots and socks scrupulously exam
ined. Nothing of suspicious nature was
found, however, and the officers admitted that
they had committed an error in making the ar
rest, and made an apology, which was very
graciOusly received. The reason for taking the
men into custody is, that they were seen com
ing from notorious resort of counterfeiters,
and the officers very reasonably supposed that
from the time of night, and the fact Of their
having carpet-sacks, that the probability Of
their being concerned in some counterfeittDg
scheme was sufficient to justify them in making
an arrest.
