Broadside notice for employees of the Boston and Providence Railroad Corporation, from A. A. Folsom, the Superintendent, reading: Special Notice (No. 25) to employees, and for their government and information only, and not for the information of the public. New Standard Time, Sunday, Nov. 18. Dear Sir: You are hereby notified that from and after noon of Sunday, Nov. 18th, the time used upon this road will be that of the 75th Meridian of West Longitude, which is 15 minutes and 44 1/2 seconds slower than the Boston Standard time now in use. Time will be given from the Boston office on Sunday as above, and all persons in the employ of the corporation must assemble at the nearest station convenient to them, and receive the new time. Telegraph operators will report for duty at 11 A.M., and remain until dismissed by this office. Agents and others at stations where there are no telegraph facilities, will obtain the time from conductors, verifying the same from time to time. Employes will adjust their watches and clocks with great care, as this is a most important matter.
