The other day as £ was walking along one of tho principal streets a stone from one of these toys whizzed within a couple of inches of my ear. It win anything but a pleasant sensation, and I think it my duty to mention the matter so that stops can be taken to sup. press the nuisance boforo a serious accident occurs.— 1 am, &c, S.U'KTY.
