THE CAVERSHAM RAILWAY.

TO THE EIMTOfI. ' ; Sin—The complaint made by your correspondent " Caversham Housohokler,"is one, in my opinion, ridiculous in the extreme, aud evidence thnl he has outstepped the bounds of sanity, and such a gross exaggeration as that '■' hundreds walk along the line," is not only flagrantly erroneous, but very insipid. If the wish of "Caversham Householder"' was fulfilled, nnd persons could walk along the line; for convenient access to the town, avoidability of nmil and dampness, nnd to gaze upon th& many gardens and back premises (which last would certain!}" bo presumptuous, and offending to the owners), without molestation, the eontsctjuences would be terrible. The foolish, aged aud young, would convert it into a promenade, and if continually practised, the result would be jui inevitable death to some. TJierefore.the strict ruli-s about to be enforced, s:> objectionable to " Cavursham Householder," and a source of unbounded happiness to persons of sense, are most proper, and should have been proclaimed ere this. How defective in brain* ihofit' persons must be who inconsiderately waste their xiine, ink, and paper upon worthless complaints, nnd explanations of needfulness of what they consider a benefit to mankind, eKyo:;cd to the light of deep and sound thoughttulm^s, lies utter ruin.—l am, &c, - -Sense.
