DaNGKR ON TH?® P CADS —Wo have roc ived correepondenco from several eyewitnesses and others on this subject, but we do not intend to insert any of it, bs we con eider the object has been eerved by our call ing attention to the fact of—to say the least of it—the crave error of judgment and gross violation of the bylaws that occurred. The letters elate that do men were placed on the mad on the side nearest the coach ; that the engine never stopped at all when the coach was passing, b'Jt that all hands were aboard except Harris, who was walk , ing behind ; also that the engine passed a trap with two ladies in it in Robinson's Bay without stopping or giving any warning. Theae are our correspondents' statements, not ours, end there in no-need for our comment. It was a misfortune, due, no doubt, to the abeenee of the Engineer, for that most able and useful of our ratepayers, the County Chairman, or any member of the Council, is quite incapable of in the smallest way contributing to any endangering of the public safety. The incident is now closed, and no further mention of it will be made in our columns.
