ROUGH DRIVING.
(To tJie Editor.) SlB, — On Thursday I saw two horsemen driving about ten horses, at a most furious pace, past the new Wesleyan Church. Now, there is no break or helm attached to a horse. The rushing animals referred to were destituto of weight or curb of any kind. A boy, a girl, or aged person, turning a corner, would have, on the occasion referred to, run considerable risk of being knocked down. Doubtless the horse-catchers in question thought themselves very clever. I did not think so, and I suggest tbat they should carefully commit to memory at least one verse of Burns', which refers to a laiy who was tossing her head with vanity, when she was an object of pity to onlookers. — I am, &c, A Ladx Pedestbiait.
