One of the commission. ers, to the Whig, to-day, intimate! that they had considered the matter but that no order had ever been issued by the commissioners on the question of the advisability of keep ing engine windows clear. The Whig is informed that the Smith's Falls branch of the .¥rotherhood of Locomo- tives Engineers has endorsed the in vention, and recuested the railways commissioners to ssod an official to Mr. Harmer's engine on a reslly cold day to ste' how the device works. En- gineers oftén have trouble keeping thie windows in their engine cab clear of frost. Of vourse it is desirable, they can then see all signals. It claimed that the installation of new invention consists of only a few dollars on each engine. 1t id said it is s meritorious contrivance as it keeps the windows absolutely. clear of front, so that the engineer can see the track right ahead and all signals.
