Stray Cattle.

* (To TIIII Emior Waiiiabapa Daily Turns,) Sm-S.imo fow wot-ka ngo jon reported ut i'tflic*! Court case in which i the owner of ;w> qm'ot cows w.is fin-d ■ofor allowing ilii'ni to wander at large in Worteop i'on<)| tmd now in your ifsuß of yrslerdiiy, we tend Hint a residual in ill" same locality is lined 10.1 and costs 7s with the iniinialion that the fine would ie increased if the offence were repeated. Here lei int say that I am almost it Strange to flu* parties in both the nbove cases, buo am in no wav interested in then' affaits, My interest, however, lies in this, that as an habitual frequmfer ofßannister-slreet, I claim the samo protection. from loose horses as is accorded to residents of the streets already referred to. For a long time past it has been the custom of some persons unknown to myself, to tun ■ their horses—sometimes numbering r~ fourteen or fifteen—at ft smart pice to and from the paddocks at all hours of the day, commencing about six in the morning and ending frequently after dark. Of course Bannist?r-st, may bo outside the Borough (I have not a plan of the town before me), but U. w itliin the boundary then that fwrecious by-law has been ridden over 60 often that there cannot be much o! it left. Or, happy thought 1 it may bo that'the ranger gives Bannister-st, a wide berth for fear that he mightiun up against the effluvium from the gasworks. Allow mo to inform him that it is quite safo now tho gas nuisance, has abated, but n greater nuisance requires his immediate attention. I am, etc, Bannister-sweet.
