LARRAKINISM.

TO THE BDITOR. Bir,—May I avail myself of your columns to express my deep indignation at the con duot of the hooligan section of this otherwise delightful township. While engaged in writing a short note a few momenta ago, in a recess-like office, which stands a oon eiderable distance from the road, and of which a email window ia visible therefrom, a stone came craehing through one of the panes, scattering the glass in eaoh a way as to indicate that no little force mast have been used in hurling the missile. I only hope tbat the perpetrator of this atrocious aot maybe discovered and fittingly punished, so that ib may act as a deterrent to further violenoe and possibly more serious consequences. A repetition of Incidents suoh as that) of which I complain, and which seems so utterly out of keeping with this Elysium like township cannot but render the author thereof a real menace to common law and order. The nature of this communication will, I trust, constitute a sufficient apology for thus troubling you.—l am, etc,
