But it displays itself in everything they do, even to making presentations to the Mayor. The Mayor was made the hap- py (?) recepient, a few evenings shim., of a fine, welt -developed child.

Just at present there is coasiderable suppressed indignation in that city at the high -handed -mapper in which Mr. Broughton, the lately appointed mana- ger of the great 'Western is conducting himself. Before being lelegated to his present positionahe had the -supreme- management of it 'forty -mile coal -nine road in Wales, and raised it from it state verging ..on bankruptcy.° a posi- tion in which it paid its stock -holders quite large dividends. It is to the succese of his labors in Wales that he owes his present position on the Western. While 9 a 0 1 in Wales hehad kept a haw's eye on every cent, and cut down the expenses to a minimum. But he could sweep the entire road with one glance. The companions between his former change tind his present one is too laughable to allow a thought of it. If:the Direc- tors imagined that the close-fistedness used on the Welsh mining road was a criterion of such a proceeding on the Great Western they never were more completely sold in their life. nor ate then meat with so much mustard. Mr. Broughton is certainly carrying out their Mandate to the letter if such was to use eConomy. But economy if not often wrongly named is ofter placed in a position to Wrongly father stingy operations.
