CORRESPONDENCE.

Wc do not hold ourselves rcqfonMblc for the Opinions expressed by cur TO THE EDITOR. Str, —I desire through your columns to correct a gross mis-statement which appeared in the “Herald” last evening. The Ass who wrote it must not alone be shortsighted, but also must he gifted with an amount of imaginative power which he assuredly might apply better. The paragraph relative to an accident tn my “bus” (by the way, 1 <lo not own such a thing, but I suppose he il'icant “hmke”) is false from beginning to end. The horses did not breat’ I’fito a gallop, they merely swerved ; the gutter is not deep : the wheel is not broken, or, for the matter of that, sertnlched, and the editor of the “ Herald ' can come at any time with his strongest spectacles and satisfy himself ; tn»horse* were got. nut without the slightest injury, and the two ladies hive not hem bruised. I have no objection to the accident having been reported, l>ut I do strongly object to a tissue of falsehoods being published. I brought the brake into town last evening, and anyone is welc«-nin to sec for themse'vcif what 1 have stated is correct or not. -I am, etc., S. M. Witao?.
