OyCIIKO EXTBAOBDINAEY.—Under the heading of " Cyoling Extraordinary " we find the following in the Irish Times :—The habituea of Grafton street were the other day startled by the appearance of a huge cycle, about 40 feet in length, and mounted upon it no less than ten riders, while attached to it was s Urge biggage waggon. Iho leviathan threaded its way through the traflic with surprising ease and precision. Tho mitchino—a Viefcoriu, made by Singer and Co.—proceeded along the Eoek road to Dalkey, and everywhere excited the greatest attention. At Blackrook the band was visited, and as long aB tho machine remained in the precincts the musicians ware deserted. The ten-in-band has honn got over by Mr It. J. M'ecardy for the Irish Cyclist*' tour. A tent will be earned und cooking utonsils in the baggage waggon, and tho party will camp out and prepare their own victuals.
