aud We trust he will hereafter heed the warnings
often given by those connected with the trains
and raj road station. a crowd about the station,
especi sly evenings is always considered an I'M
mitgatcd nuisance; and il Is a wonder that Sc
ricus accidents are of no more frequent occur
rerce. We have often heard it remarked by con-
ductors that there is no station the line OF the
road where they find such crowds of Young peo-
pie here, almost every time the evening train
arrives. The practice of assembling thus pro-
miscuously is far ION creditable, and at the same
time peculiarly annoying to the travelling com
muuity.
