tended. Ladies left their seats IN the coaches

A DIFF. CULT QUESTION A curious instance
Of scrupul"usncss III drunken man, says the
Pail Mall g szette. is afforded by the case of az
engine driver named Thomson. 10 the employ
OF the North British Railway Company against
whom a complaint was beard at the instance of
the Company at the Edinburgh Summary
Court GU Saturday last. 1t seems that rhom-
sou, WHO was acting as engine driver for the
conduct of the traffic at the Portobelo station,
Was found drunk while serving in that capacity
on the 23d instant. He admitted his guilt, but
pleaded that, feeling himself 90 the day in
question overcome by the liquor of which
be had sparlogly partaken, he did not persist
iu remaining at his post, but left the engine Of
which he had charge to another person. The
Sheriff, after making some severe remarks as
to the dagger 20 travellers by rail caused by n-
toxicated engine drivers, fined Thomson e5,
with the alternative Of thirty days imprisou-
ment. There can be 20 doubt that as a rule
drunken engine drivers deserve exceptionally
severe punishment; but, as a matter of policy,
it is a question whether it would not have been
a wise course to have given Thomson reward
of G5 instead of 6ning him hat amount, as an
encouragement to railway officials to follow the
wise example set BY him Of not remaining at
his post when he felt overcome by liquor and
unfit to discharge bis duties.
