It was put to the test by a h Vey iroin the Board of Trade to all the railway companies of the kingdom. an the now published. Oa moat lines, by exe.usive arcommodstlon is provided, asa everywbe,e the authorities are quite willing to supply it;. but all agree that ladies generally like to travel in the unreserved carriages Moose of the companhs furnish statistics. Ou the Great Western rather more than one-fifth of the seate allotted are o. curled; on the London and Routh-W.-stern considerably less. A supple. mint to the former calculation gives it double eignific- nee; during the time whom 2411 women monopolised 1,060 places, no lees than 5,1 il travelled In the smoking compartments. These figures do not show that reserved carriages are unnecessary, and they are not interpreted in that sense. The companies which provide them have no intention of -discontinuilig the praetiee, and theme who have not done so hitherto are ready to begin. But they demonstrate that the conveniences existing are quite liberal enough, and the Board of Trade may dismim its anliety.
