SNEAK THIEVES.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—l trust you will allow me a small space in your columns, re the detestable practice of larrikins in goiug round the several gardens, in the Cambridffo district stealing fruit, eto, I for one um a sufferer by these low-bred larrikins. Last night thoy went into my garden and stripped my beautiful poach tree of its fruit, I urn euro, in my own mind that it is not children, but over-grown hoodlums, who kuock about in tho niyht robbing garden'', and annoying the residents in and around tho distriot. Ido not seo why I should bo annoyed, as my garden is my only onjoymont and being afflicted with deafness I prefer to work at my gardon instead of visiting. In conclusion, I trust something will bo done by our law makers in putting down this great ourso to the publie at largo—viz larrikiuis.ii. Hoping I havo not intruded on too much of your space.—Yours eto,, Sakaii Master,
